For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall back through the $61,663 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $62,570 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from Saturday’s high $62,353.0.
Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $62,500 would likely cap the upside.
In the event of another breakout, Bitcoin could test resistance at $65,000 levels before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $63,261, with the third major resistance level at $64,859.
A fall back through the $61,663 pivot would bring the first major support level at $60,972 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$60,000 levels, however. The second major support level at $60,065 should limit the downside.
