Bitcoin, BTC to USD, rose by 2.07% on Sunday. Reversing a 0.46% decline Saturday, Bitcoin ended the week up by 0.57% to $11,730.0.

The late recovery saw Bitcoin strike an intraday high $11,730 in the final hour.

The near-term bullish trend remained intact, supported by the latest move through to $12,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend.

Across the rest of the majors, it was a bullish day for the majors on Sunday.

Ethereum (+7.62%), Litecoin (+10.45%), and Trons TRX (+8.65%) led the way.

Binance Coin (+2.87%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (+3.25%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+3.32%), EOS (+4.20%), Moneros XMR (+3.86%), and Ripples XRP (+3.28%) also made solid gains.

Cardanos ADA (+0.96%), Stellars Lumen (+2.01%), and Tezos (+1.13%) trailed the front runners.

Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall through the $11,647 pivot level to support a run at the first major resistance level at $11,813.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from this mornings high $11,744.0.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside.

In the event of a crypto breakout, the second major resistance level at $11,897 and resistance at $12,000 would likely be tested.

A fall through the $11,647 pivot would bring the first major support level at $11,563 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should avoid sub-$11,500 levels on the day. The second major support level sits at $11,397.
