Bitcoin, BTC to USD, rose by 2.87% on Thursday. Following a 3.44% gain on Wednesday, Bitcoin ended the day at $34,665.0.
A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning intraday low $32,343.0 before making a move.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $32,061, Bitcoin rallied to a late intraday high $35,290.0.
Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $35,049 before falling back to sub-$35,000 levels.
The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of the latest slide back to sub-$30,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need a sustained fall through the 62% FIB of $27,237 to form a near-term bearish trend.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to avoid the $34,099 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $35,856 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from Thursday’s high $35,290.0 levels.
Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, the first major resistance level and resistance at $36,000 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $38,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $37,046.
A fall through the $34,099 pivot would bring the first major support level at $32,909 into play.
Barring an extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $31,152.
