BTC and FIL Technical Analysis for November 17, 2023
Bitcoin faced resistance in maintaining levels above $37,900, resulting in a decline back to the support level of $35,500. Here's an overview of the market situation for Bitcoin (BTC) and Filecoin (FIL) as of Friday, November 17.
Bitcoin (BTC)
Currently, Bitcoin's upward trend is still in play, but there's a noticeable weakening in buying strength. The asset is trading within a local sideways channel, bounded by the support level at $35,500 and resistance at $36,900. It is expected that Bitcoin will continue to fluctuate within this range over the weekend.
Above this current resistance level, there is a sellers' zone between $37,500 and $38,000. This range is potentially critical for the continuation of the upward trend and achieving new annual highs. Therefore, the next targets for buyers would be the $39,000 and $40,000 marks.
If a deeper correction occurs, Bitcoin might decline to the $34,800 level. Below this, the range of $33,400-$34,100 holds a significant number of buyer orders and could potentially act as a local bottom.

Filecoin (FIL)
Filecoin has continued its rise that began in mid-May. Since October 19, the asset has appreciated by 80%, reaching a local high of $5.65.
At present, FIL is trading between the support zone of $4.46-$4.73 and the resistance of $5.33-$5.65. Continuing the upward trend is the favored scenario for the asset. The next levels of resistance are located at $6.0 and $6.3.
Should there be a deeper correction, FIL could fall to the $4.16 level, and may also retest the support range of $3.7-$4.0. The potential for a more substantial decline in the FIL price will be directly linked to Bitcoin's performance.
