Bitcoin (D1 Interval)

Bitcoin's price is slightly recovering from earlier losses, and we currently see a price increase to around $58,700. Interestingly, much larger gains can be observed among smaller projects and Ethereum. Altcoin market capitalization gains 1.80%, while Ethereum is up 1.10%.

Based on technical analysis, after a strong recovery from earlier declines, Bitcoin's upward movement halted around the 200-day SMA at approximately $62,000. Over the weekend, we saw another drop to the support zone above $57,000. Currently, the key will be maintaining this level and returning above $60,000. If the bulls can hold this zone, we can expect further increases above $62,000. Otherwise, the most critical level to maintain will be the previously mentioned $57,000 support zone.
