For the Bitcoin Day Ahead

Bitcoin would need to avoid the $45,760 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $46,745 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from $46,500 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $47,000 would likely cap the upside.

In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $48,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $47,452.

A fall through the $45,760 pivot would bring the first major support level at $45,053 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$44,000. The second major support level at $44,068 should limit the downside.
