For the Bitcoin Day Ahead

Bitcoin would need to avoid the $60,618 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $61,704 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from Sunday’s high $61,476.0.

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

In the event of another breakout, Bitcoin could test resistance at $63,500 levels before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $62,562.

A fall through the $60,619 would bring the first major support level at $59,761 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 $58,676.
