For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move through the $45,350 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $46,546 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break back through to $46,000 levels.
Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $47,044.0 would likely cap the upside.
In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $50,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $48,239.
Failure to move through the $45,350 pivot would bring the first major support level at $43,657 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off on the day, Bitcoin should steer clear of the 38.2% FIB of $41,592. The second major support level at $42,461 should limit the downside.
