Bitcoin, BTC to USD, rose by 0.91% on Thursday. Partially reversing a 1.65% fall from Wednesday, Bitcoin ended the day at $11,864.0.
It was a mixed start to the day. Bitcoin rose to an early morning high $11,831.0 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $11,998, Bitcoin fell to a mid-morning intraday low $11,677.0.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $11,541, Bitcoin rose to a late intraday high $11,894.5.
Coming up short of the first major resistance level, Bitcoin slipped back to limit the upside on the day.
The near-term bullish trend remained intact, supported by the latest move through to $12,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend.

Bitcoin Cash ABC (+0.59%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+0.42%), and Tron’s TRX (+0.25%) also found early support.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $11,812 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $11,947.
Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through to $11,900 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Thursday’s high $11,894.5 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could test the second major resistance level at $12,029 before any pullback.
Failure to avoid a fall through the $11,812 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $11,729 into play.
Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should avoid the second major support level at $11,594.
