Bitcoin Trading- BTC/USD Technical Analysis, Nov 17: BTC recoups some gains, flirting with $400

Bitcoin (BTC/USD) has recouped some of last week's gains after a turbulent weekend that saw it retrace 57%. BTC is currently trading at $381 on BTC-e, down 5% from earlier highs of $406.

Volume continues to come in above normal, averaging over 500 BTC an hour.

In bouncing back, BTC successfully kept its head above the 50-day moving average (MA). Prior to last week's rally, BTC had not crossed back above this mark since late July.

BTC-USD, Nov 17

It is unlikely that BTC will resume its rally to new highs in the immediate term. It is possible that a bottoming process is unfolding, in which case new highs will take several weeks to materialize. Should BTC encounter tough resistance at current levels, it may signal a mid-term return back to the low-mid $300's.

Prices on BTC-e are about $6.50 (1.6%) lower relative to its peers.
