Bitcoin continues its recovery at the start of the week, returning above the $65,000 level. The largest cryptocurrency is up 2.10% today.

The NFP report on Friday, which was worse than expected, proved to be a second impulse for gains in risky assets. However, shortly thereafter, investors received mixed ISM readings.

Bitcoin rebounded around the $57,000 level, a break-even threshold for short-term investors. These levels again proved to be effective support during the uptrend.

The most important levels to watch are the support level at $57,000 and resistance around $71,500-$73,000 USD.
