Bitcoin rallied by 8.74% on Monday. Reversing a 5.71% slide from Sunday, Bitcoin ended the day at $6,407.6.
Bullish throughout the day, Bitcoin rallied from an early morning intraday low $5,880.9 to a late intraday high $6,636.0.
Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $6,150.93 and the second major resistance level at $6,409.17.
Of greater significance, however, was a breakthrough and hold above the 23.6% FIB of $6,300.
A late pullback limited the upside on the day, however.
The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000.
For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend.

This Morning
At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up 1.07% to $6,476.0. A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise from an early morning low $6,407.6 to a high $6,536.0.
Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
Elsewhere, it was also a mixed start to the day.
Bitcoin Cash ABC (-0.91%), EOS (-0.27%), Litecoin (-0.18%), Tezos (-0.49%), and Tron’ TRX (-0.41%) saw red early on.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move back through to $6,500 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $6,735.43 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Monday’s high $6,636.0.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside on the day.
Failure to move back through to $6,500 levels could see Bitcoin hit reverse.
A fall back through to the morning low to sub-$6,310 levels would bring the first major support level at $5,890.33 into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$6,00 levels. The 23.6% FIB of $6,300 should limit any downside.
