Immediate support is near the $105,500 level. The next key support sits at $104,000. A downside break below $104,000 might send Bitcoin toward the $102,000 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $100,000 support zone or the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $93,430 swing low to the $107,643 high.
On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $107,500 level. The next key resistance is $108,800. The main hurdle is now near $112,000.
A successful close above $112,000 might start another steady increase. In the stated case, the price may perhaps rise toward the $120,000 milestone level.
