This Morning

At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.37% to $10,359. A relatively bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise from an early morning low $10,314.1 to a high $10.381.

Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

Elsewhere, Ethereum and Litecoin led the way, with gains of 1.88% and 1.80% respectively.

Binance Coin also found much-needed support, rising by 1.03%.

Bitcoin Cash SV and Monero’s XMR trailed the majors early, with the pair flat at the time of writing.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead

Bitcoin would need to avoid a pullback through to $10,330 levels to support upward momentum through the day.

A move through the morning high $10,381 would bring the first major resistance level at $10,391 into play.

Bitcoin would need the support of the broader market, however, to break out from $10,380 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin would likely fall short of the second major resistance level at $10,461.

Failure to steer clear of $10,330 levels could see Bitcoin test the first major support level at $10,263.

Barring a crypto meltdown, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$10,200 levels. The second major support level at $10,205 should limit the downside in the event of an extended sell-off.
