Steering clear of the first major support level at $45,134 Bitcoin rallied to a late morning intraday high $47,483. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $46,633, however, Bitcoin fell back to sub-$46,500 levels before finding support.<\/p>\n<p>The near-term bullish trend remained intact, in spite of the most recent pullback to $41,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need a sustained fall through the 62% FIB of $28,814 to form a near-term bearish trend.<\/p>\n<h2>The Rest of the Pack<\/h2>\n<p>Across the rest of the majors, it was a bullish session.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxempire.com\/crypto\/link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Chainlink\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Chainlink<\/a> rallied by 6.87% to lead the way, with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxempire.com\/crypto\/ltc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Litecoin\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Litecoin<\/a> (+3.31%) and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxempire.com\/crypto\/xrp\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Ripple\u2019s XRP\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Ripple\u2019s XRP<\/a> (+3.74%) also finding strong support.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxempire.com\/crypto\/bnb\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Binance Coin\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Binance Coin<\/a> (+1.58%), <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxempire.com\/crypto\/bch\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Bitcoin Cash SV\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Bitcoin Cash SV<\/a> (+1.34%), <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxempire.com\/crypto\/ada\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Cardano\u2019s ADA\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Cardano\u2019s ADA<\/a> (+1.97%), <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxempire.com\/crypto\/cro\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Crypto.com Coin\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Crypto.com Coin<\/a> (+1.22%), <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxempire.com\/crypto\/eth\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:Ethereum\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Ethereum<\/a> (+2.21%), and Polkadot (+1.89%) trailed the front runnners, however.<\/p>\n<p>In the current week, the crypto total market fell to a Monday low $2,054bn before rising to a Thursday high $2,303bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $2,194bn.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s dominance rose to a Tuesday high 42.25% before falling to a Saturday low 40.22%.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from $47,500 levels.<\/p>\n<p>Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $48,000 would likely cap the upside. In the event of an extended rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $50,000 levels before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $48,586.<\/p>\n<p>A fall through the $46,626 pivot would bring the first major support level at $45,770 into play. Barring an extended sell-off on the day, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$44,000 levels. The second major support level at $44,666 and the 38.2% FIB of $44,144 and should limit the downside.<\/p>\n<h2>Daily Tech Analysis of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple\u2019s XRP<\/h2>\n<p>This <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fxempire.com\/news\/article\/bitcoin-btc-finds-support-though-indicators-suggest-it-may-be-temporary-844921\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:article\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">article<\/a> was originally posted on FX Empire<\/p>\n<h3>More From FXEMPIRE:<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/bitcoin-btc-finds-support-though-001820539.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the tech analysis for Bitcoin (BTC).
