1. Bitcoin (BTC)
The apex coin experienced notable changes during the previous intraweek session. However, it started slow as the first two days of the week were bearish. As a result, it dipped to it low of the week.
It picked momentum and went on an uptrend. It lasted for four days as BTC claimed the $20k support. Unfortunately, the bulllish effort failed to reflect on the weekly chart as we observed a doji.
We may be assured of a different outcome this week as the Bitcoin kicked off strong. It flipped its fourteen days high as it peaked above $22k yesterday. It is above $23k as at the time of writing.
Additionally, indicators are also blaring a bulls alert. One such is the pivot point standard. BTC is currently exchanging above its pivot point. We may see the asset edge closer to retesting its first pivot resistance.

The sentiment extended into the current intraweek session as we observed massive price changes. One key level to watchout for is the $1,800 resistance, we may see the level flip in the coming days.
