Bitcoin, BTC to USD, fell by 1.74% on Sunday. Partially reversing a 4.00% rally from Saturday, Bitcoin ended the week up by 9.85% to $43,793.0.
A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rally to a mid-morning intraday high $45,250.0 before hitting reverse.
Falling short of the first major resistance level at $45,384, however, Bitcoin slid to a late intraday low $43,300.0.

The near-term bullish trend remained intact, supported by the latest return to $45,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need a sustained fall through the 62% FIB of $27,237 to form a near-term bearish trend.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move through the $44,114 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $44,929 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break back through to $44,500 levels.
Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Sunday’s high $45,250.0 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at $47,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $46,064.
Failure to move through the $44,114 pivot would bring the first major support level at $42,979 into play.
