Bitcoin broke back through the second major support level to limit the loss on the day.

The near-term bullish trend remained intact, supported by the latest move through to $11,000 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 bearish day on Sunday.

Bitcoin Cash ABC (-11.53%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-11.14%), EOS (-10.93%) led the way down.

While it was a bearish Sunday, it was a mixed week.

Ripples XRP rallied by 33.5% to lead the way.

Bitcoin Cash ABC (+13.82%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+15.09%), Ethereum (+19.52%), and Litecoin (+17.95%) also found strong support.

Binance Coin (+7.10%), EOS (+8.23%), Moneros XMR (+8.71%), Stellars Lumen (+3.29%), and Trons TRX (+2.29%) trailed the front runners.

Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

Elsewhere, it was a bullish start to the day. Stellars Lumen was up by 2.46%, at the time of writing, to lead the way.

Bitcoin would need to move through the $11,233 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $11,918.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from $11,500 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 eye the second major resistance level at $12,782.

Failure to move through the $11,233 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $10,369 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$10,500 levels on the day.
