Bitcoin, BTC to USD, rose by 3.25% on Thursday. Reversing a 0.72% loss from Wednesday, Bitcoin ended the day at $59,016.

A mixed morning saw Bitcoin fall to a mid-morning intraday low $57,067 before making a move.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $56,120, Bitcoin rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $59,423.

Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $57,987 and the second major resistance level at $58,808.

A late pullback saw Bitcoin briefly fall back through the second major resistance level before wrapping up the day at $59,100 levels.

The near-term bullish trend remained intact, in spite of the latest pullback to sub-$56,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need a sustained fall through the 62% FIB of $28,814 to form a near-term bearish trend.

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

Crypto.com Coin tumbled by 15.93%, with Bitcoin Cash SV (-0.29%) and Polkadot (-0.09%) also seeing red on the day

Binance Coin rallied by 8.15% to lead the way, with Ethereum (+5.97%) and Litecoin (+5.11%) close behind.

Cardano’s ADA (+0.48%), Chainlink (+2.98%), and Ripple’s XRP (+1.00%) trailed the front runners, however.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead

Bitcoin would need to avoid the $58,502 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $59,937 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from $59,500 levels.

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

In the event of an extended rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $63,000 levels before easing back. The second major resistance level sits at $60,859.

A fall through the $58,502 pivot would bring the first major support level at $57,581 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$56,000 levels. The second major support level at $56,146 should limit the downside.
