At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 3.06% to $6,707.1. A particularly bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin slide from an early morning high $6,917.0 before to a low $6,571.1.
Steering clear of the major resistance levels, Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $6,746.9. The second major support level at $6,574.8 limited the downside early on.
Elsewhere, it was also a bearish start to the day.
EOS and Stellar’s Lumen led the way down early on, with losses of 3.90% and 4.21% respectively.
For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move through to $6,970 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $7,141.80 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through the first major support level at $6,746.9 to hit $6,900 levels.
Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $7,000 would likely leave Bitcoin short of the first major resistance level and Sunday’s high $7,192.5.
In the event of a crypto rebound, resistance at $7,200 would likely limit any upside.
Failure to move back through to $6,970 levels could see Bitcoin fall deeper into the red.
A fall back through the second major support level at $6,574.8 would bring the 23.6% FIB of $6,300 into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should continue to steer of sub-$6,500 support levels.
