It's a mixed start to the day for the majors. A Bitcoin move through to $58,500 would deliver support to the broader market.

The Rest of the Pack

Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day on Friday.

Binance Coin and Bitcoin Cash SV rallied by 8.29% and by 8.85% to lead the way. Crypto.com Coin (+5.11%) also found support to buck the broader trend on the day.

It was a bearish day for the rest of the majors, however.

Chainlink (-3.65%) and Ripple’s XRP (-3.66%) led the way down.

Cardano’s ADA (-1.45%), Ethereum (-0.73%), and Litecoin (-2.25%), and Polkadot (-1.41%) also struggled, however.

In the current week, the crypto total market rose to a Tuesday high $1,992bn before falling to a Wednesday low $1,782bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $1,916bn.

Bitcoin’s dominance rose to a Monday high 58.43% before falling to a Wednesday low 55.75%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 56.46%.

This Morning

At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.30% to $57,958.1. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $58,311.0 before falling to a low $57,924.0.

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

Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day.

Binance Coin (+0.33%), Crypto.com Coin (+0.67%), and Ripple’s XRP (+0.05%) found early support.

It was a bearish start for the rest of the majors, however.

At the time of writing, Litecoin was down by 0.62% to lead the way down.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead

Bitcoin would need to move back through the pivot level at $58,245 to bring the first major resistance level at $58,777 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from $58,500 levels.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $59,000 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $60,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $59,420.

Failure to move back through the $58,245 pivot would bring the first major support level at $57,602 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$57,000 levels. The second major support level at $57,070 should limit the downside.
