Bitcoin Cash SV (-0.25%), Cardano’s ADA (-0.92%), and Ripple’s XRP (-1.77%) saw red on the day.

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

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead

Bitcoin would need to avoid the $60,987 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $62,453 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break back through to $62,400 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Monday’s high $62,491.2 would likely cap the upside.

In the event of an extended rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $65,000 levels before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $63,957.

A fall through the $60,987 pivot would bring the first major support level at $59,484 into play.

Barring another extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$59,000 levels, however. The second major support level sits at $58,018.
