Bitcoin, BTC to USD, rose by 2.02% on Tuesday. Following on from a 3.39% rally on Monday, Bitcoin ended the day at $58,840.0.
A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning intraday low $57,135.0 before making a move.
Steering clear of the first major support level at $55,507, Bitcoin rallied to a mid-day intraday high $59,523.0.
The morning rally saw Bitcoin break through the first major resistance level at $59,168 before easing back.
Falling short of $60,000 levels and the second major resistance level at $60,660, Bitcoin fell back to sub-$58,500 levels.
Finding late support, however, Bitcoin briefly moved back through to $58,900 levels before easing back.
The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of the recent pullback. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $26,041 to form a near-term bearish trend.

Binance Coin jumped by 13.22% to lead the way.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead
Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $58,499 to bring the first major resistance level at $59,864 into play.
Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from Tuesday’s high $59,523.0.
Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $60,000 would likely cap any upside.
In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could test resistance at 14th March swing hi $61,699.0 before easing back. The second major resistance level sits at $60,887.
