Bitcoin
Bitcoin, BTC to USD, fell by 2.93% in the week ending 11th July. Reversing a 1.53% gain from the previous week, Bitcoin ended the week at $34,244.0.
In a mixed start to the week, Bitcoin rose to a Monday intraweek high $35,280.0 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $37,017, Bitcoin slid to a Thursday intraweek low $32,063.0.
Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $33,117 before a partial recovery to $34,200 levels.
4 days in the red that included a 4.55% slide on Monday delivered the downside for the week.
For the week ahead
Bitcoin would need to avoid the $33,862 pivot to support a run the first major resistance level at $35,662.
Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break back through to $35,000 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $36,000 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended breakout, Bitcoin could test resistance at $38,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $37,079.
A fall through the $33,862 pivot would bring the first major support level at $32,445 into play.
Barring another extended sell-off, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$30,000 levels. The second major support level at $30,645 should limit the downside.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.02% to $34,237.0. A mixed start to the week saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $34,360.0 before falling to a low $34,051.0.
Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested at the start of the week.
