The near-term bullish trend remained intact, in spite of the latest pullback to sub-$10,000. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend.

Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day for the majors on Saturday.
Tron’s TRX and Ethereum tumbled by 15.96% and by 13.69% respectively to lead the way down.

Bitcoin Cash ABC (-5.07%), EOS (-2.02%), Litecoin (-5.77%), and Monero’s XMR (-5.98%) saw relatively modest losses.

Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day.
Bianance Coin (-0.79%) and Tezos (-0.56%) saw red early on.
It was a bullish start for the rest of the majors, however.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin Cash SV was up by 2.24% to lead the way early on.
For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move through the $10,239 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $10,551.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through to $10,500 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $10,593.0 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a crypto breakout, the second major resistance level at $10,906 would likely come into play.
Failure to move through the $10,239 pivot would bring the first major support level at $9,884 into play.
Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $9,571.
