For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move through to $7,300 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $7,403.93 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Thursday’s high $7,370.7.
Barring another crypto rally, the first major resistance level at $7,403.93 and Thursday’s high would likely pin Bitcoin back.
Failure to move back through to $7,300 levels could see Bitcoin fall back into the red.
A fall back through to sub-$7,260 levels would bring the first major support level at $7,150.23 into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should continue to steer of sub-$7,100 support levels.
