The near-term bullish trend remained intact, in spite of the latest slide back to sub-$17,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $9,920 to form a near-term bearish trend.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to move through the pivot level at $17,479 to bring the first major resistance level at $18,641 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break back through to $18,000 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.
In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could test resistance at $19,000 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $20,070.
Failure to move through the $17,479 pivot would bring the first major support level at $16,050 into play.
Barring another extended crypto sell-off, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$15,000 levels. The 23.6% FIB of $15,840 should limit any downside. In the event of another sell-off, the second major support level sits at $14,888.
