For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move through the $55,544 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $57,533 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from $55,000 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap the upside.
In the event of an extended rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $60,000 levels before easing back. The second major resistance level sits at $61,227.
Failure to move through the $55,544 pivot would bring the 23.6% FIB of $53,628 and the first major support level at $51,850 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$50,000 levels. The second major support level sits at $49,861.
