Bitcoin price

The past few hours were positive since bitcoin price broke many hurdles near the USD 5,300 level and moved into a positive zone. BTC is currently consolidating near USD 5,350 and it could rise towards the USD 5,400 and USD 5,420 levels in the near term. Any further gains might push the price towards the USD 5,450 level.
On the downside, the recent hurdles near USD 5,320 and USD 5,300 levels are likely to act as supports. Below USD 5,300, the price could revisit the USD 5,250 support area.
