Bitcoin’s price action has been somewhat stagnant as of late, with the selling pressure found throughout the lower-$11,000 region proving to be too much for bulls to break. Today, however, buyers have been stepping up and attempting to generate some significant buying pressure, likely with the aim of breaking above $11,300.

Bitcoin is pushing higher as it has normally done over past weekends. The price of the leading cryptocurrency currently is above $11,000 — a pivotal resistance level for BTC. While this is positive for the cryptocurrency in the short term, analysts are still fearful that Bitcoin is subject to a steep retracement.
