There was a break below the $7,000 level, but the previous resistance near the $6,720 level is now acting as solid support. A swing low is formed near $6,689 and the price is currently consolidating.

Besides, the bitcoin price is trading inside a contracting triangle with resistance near $6,840 on the same chart. The triangle resistance is near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent correction from the $7,281 high to $6,689 low.

If there is an upside break above the triangle resistance, the price could attempt to clear the $6,880 and $6,920 resistance levels. 

The next major resistance is near the $6,985 level. It represents the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent correction from the $7,281 high to $6,689 low.

A successful break above the $6,985 and $7,000 resistance levels could open the doors for a larger upward move in the coming sessions. The next resistance is near the $7,280 level, followed by the $7,420 level. 

Clearly, bitcoin bulls are back in action and it seems like they are aiming for a larger upward move above $7,000 and $7,080 in the near term.
