Market
The entire cryptocurrency market had a major turnaround in the past 24 hours after a strong U.S. stock market open. Indices like the Dow Jones or the S&P 500 had notable surges and most of the crypto market followed suit.
Bitcoin had a notable breakout from a symmetrical triangle pattern formed on the 4-hour chart and the daily. If the digital asset can close above $10,600, bulls will have a great chance to confirm a new daily uptrend and push Bitcoin towards $11,000 and even $12,000 as there aren’t many resistance levels on the way up.
