After a bullish end to the week, a Bitcoin move through to $35,500 levels would support the broader market.

In this article:

Bitcoin, BTC to USD, rallied by 7.41% on Sunday. Following a 2.44% gain on Saturday, Bitcoin ended the week down by 2.49% to $34,744.0.

A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning intraday low $32,066.0 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $30,821, Bitcoin rose to a final hour intraday high $34,794.0.

Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $33,276 and the second major resistance level at $34,196 to end the day at $34,700 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.

The Rest of the Pack

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

Polkadot bucked the trend on the day, falling by 3.74%,

Bitcoin Cash SV (+5.52%), Cardano’s ADA (+6.81%), Litecoin (+4.66%), and Ripple’s XRP (+5.04%) also found strong support.

Binance Coin rose by a more modest 3.99%, however.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead

Bitcoin would need to avoid the $33,868 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $35,670 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break back through to $35,000 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.

In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $38,000. The second major resistance level sits at $36,596.

A fall through the $33,868 pivot would bring the first major support level at $32,942 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $31,140.
