It's been a mixed start to the week for the majors, with Bitcoin making an early move. A Bitcoin move back through to $65,000 levels, however, would support a broad-based crypto rally.

This Morning

At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 1.41% to $64,158.0. A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rally from an early morning low $63,277.0 to a high $64,299.0.

Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $63,895 early on.

Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day.

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

At the time of writing, Crypto.com Coin was up by 4.40% to lead the way.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead

Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall back through the first major resistance level at $63,895 to bring $65,000 levels into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from the second major resistance level at $64,526.

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

In the event of an extended rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $68,000 levels before any pullback. The third major resistance level sits at $66,405. Bitcoin would need plenty of support, however, to breakout from October’s ATH $66,958.

A fall back through the first major resistance level and through the $62,647 pivot would bring the first major support level at $62,016 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$61,000 levels, however. The second major support level sits at $60,768.
