After a growth which brought BTCUSD pair above the 8000.0 level the coin stays in the lateral pattern. Today is the Tax Day in the USA, the day which was connected with the selling pressure on bitcoin in March and the first half of April. Crucial level for the further growth is 8500.0 level, breakthrough of this level will trigger buyers.

Today forecast: Trading in 8000.0 – 8500.0 zone; Break above the 8500.0 level will lead the price to the 9000.0 level coinciding with the 100-days EMA.
