Bitcoin, BTC to USD, rose by 1.01% on Tuesday. Following on from a 3.09% rally on Monday, Bitcoin ended the day at $27,316.0.
It was a relatively choppy day. Bitcoin fell to an early morning low $25,859.0 before making a move.
The sell-off saw Bitcoin fall through the first major support level at $26,267.
Steering clear of sub-$25,500 support levels, Bitcoin revisited $27,000 levels before a 2nd pullback.
Bitcoin fell back to an afternoon low $26,205.0 before bouncing back to a late intraday high $27,329.0.
In spite of the late high, Bitcoin continued to fall short of the first major resistance level at $27,641.
The near-term bullish trend remained intact, supported by the latest breakthrough to $28,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $13,261 to form a near-term bearish trend.
The Rest of the Pack

Ripple’s XRP slid by 10.65% to lead the way down.
Bitcoin Cash SV (-3.51%), Chainlink (-6.56%), Crypto.com Coin (-3.03%), and Litecoin (-0.76%) also saw red on the day.

It was a bullish start for the rest of the majors, however.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $26,835 to bring the first major resistance level at $27,810 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break back through to $27,800 levels.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $28,000 would likely cap any upside.
