Watch these Bitcoin price levels as BTC retests key $84K resistance

Bitcoin (BTC) circled $83,000 at the March 14 Wall Street open as traders set out requirements to flip bullish.

Bitcoins BTC price RSI teases key “bullish divergence”

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC/USD gaining up to 5% on the day before consolidating.

A characteristic lack of momentum at the start of the US trading session persisted, with risk assets still wary of macroeconomic and geopolitical surprises, notably in the form of US trade tariffs.

Assessing the current status quo on the daily BTC/USD chart, popular trader and analyst Rekt Capital reported increasing odds of a bullish divergence playing out on the relative strength index (RSI) metric.

Here, RSI should make higher lows as the price forms lower lows to indicate waning seller dominance.

“Promising early-stage signs of a Bullish Divergence developing,” he wrote in one of the day’s posts on X.

“Reclaiming the previous lows of $84k could set price up to further build out this Bull Div.”

Another post flagged a key horizontal resistance line currently under attack from bulls.

“Bitcoin continues to Daily Close below the blue resistance. However, each rejection from this resistance appears to be weakening in terms of follow-through to the downside,” Rekt Capital commented.

“If this weakening in the resistance persists… This should open up the opportunity for BTC to finally Daily Close above this $84k resistance, reclaim it as support, and finally trend continue to the upside.”

Keith Alan, co-founder of trading resource Material Indicators, meanwhile focused on the 21-day and 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs). At the time of writing, these stood at $83,740 and $86,800, respectively.

“BTC is poised to make another run at reclaiming the 200-Day MA, but it will only count if we get a sustained close above it, AND it is closely followed by an R/S Flip at the 21-Day MA,” an X post on the topic read.

Alan referenced one of Material Indicators’ proprietary trading tools, calling for an increase in “bullish momentum.”

“Notice how Trend Precognition’s A1 Slope line is showing a developing momentum shift,” he commented alongside a corresponding chart. 

“Reverting from downward momentum is step 1. We need to see an increase in bullish momentum from here, with bids moving higher to stage a sustainable rally.”

Bitcoins Gold leaves Bitcoin in the dust

Elsewhere, the S&P 500 saw some welcome relief at the open after dropping 10% from its latest all-time highs to officially begin a technical correction.

Meanwhile, gold set new record highs of over $3,000 per ounce as investors sought shelter from turbulent macro conditions.
