Bitcoin (BTC) has traded in a sideways range over the past week, although buyers continued to hold support at around $40,000. The next level of resistance is between $43,000 and $45,000, which could limit short-term price gains.
BTC is roughly flat over the past 24 hours, as most technical indicators remain neutral heading into the Asian trading day.
