For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move through to $7,200 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $7,255.93 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from the morning high $7,177.0
Barring another broad-based crypto rally, resistance at $7,200 would likely leave Bitcoin short of the first major resistance level.
In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, the second major resistance level at $7,378.87 would likely come into play.
Failure to move through to $7,200 levels could see Bitcoin hit reverse.
A fall through to sub-$7,040 levels would bring the first major support level at $6,918.13 into play.
Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Bitcoin should steer of the second major support level at $6,703.27.
