Below those areas, some potential areas of technical support include the 10200.39, 10139.11, and 10082.97 areas.

Given that Bitcoin has been in a strong uptrend, traders have consistently purchased dips to the 20-day exponential moving average ($11,570) because they believe that the rally will resume and the price would not dip to these levels again.
However, Bitcoin’s weak rebound off the 20-day EMA on Aug. 20 suggests that the bulls are not confident that the uptrend will resume, hence, they are not buying aggressively at this support.
The negative divergence on the relative strength index suggests that the momentum has weakened. If the price breaks and sustains below the 20-day EMA, the traders are likely to wait for the BTC/USD pair to find support at lower levels, before buying.
On a drop below the 20-day EMA, the decline can extend to the $11,100–10,900 support zone.
Contrary to this assumption, if the pair rebounds off the 20-day EMA, the bulls will make another attempt to push the price above the $12,113.50–$12,460 resistance zone. If they succeed, the uptrend is likely to resume.

Bitcoin continued its sideways movement this week as it remained around the $11,600 level. However, during the week, the cryptocurrency did push higher as it penetrated above the $12,000 resistance to reach the $12,400 level.
Unfortunately, it was unable to sustain these highs as it rolled over to fall beneath $12,000 at the start of the week. Bitcoin has since dropped further as it reached the support at $11,650 (.236 Fib Retracement). A rising trend line also bolsters this support.
The fading momentum, coupled with falling volume, puts Bitcoin in a precarious situation that could lead to it dropping back toward $11,000.
If the sellers do break beenath $11,650, the first level of support lies at $11,300 (downside 1.172 FIb Extension). Added support is found at $11,150 (.382 Fib Retracement), $11,000, and $10,783 (.5 Fib Retracement).
On the other side, if the bulls can regroup at $11,650 and push higher, resistance lies at $11,800, $12,000, $12,100 (1.272 Fib Extension), and $12,400.
