Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.
Elsewhere, it was a bullish start to the day.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move through to $9,200 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,295.47 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from the morning high $9,206.3.
Barring an extended crypto rebound, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $9,304.0 would likely limit any upside.
In the event of an extended crypto rally, the second major resistance level at $9,415.33 would likely come into play.
Failure to move through to $9,200 levels could see Bitcoin hit reverse.
A fall back through the morning low $9,131.3 would bring the first major support level at $9,064.27 into play.
Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $8,952.93.
