Bitcoin is holding above the 7,500 resistance with price now around 7,700. In the daily, BTC broke through its previous range making the 7,500 level a possible support area as it continues to tread near the 8,000 level (possible key resistance). Should price break below 7,000, it could possibly go back within 6,500 - 7,000 range. Meanwhile in the 4H chart, the 10 EMA is acting as a trail support; as long as it holds, BTC can still possibly have a leg up and test the nearest resistance area.

Global market cap is at $222B, while BTC's market cap is at $141B.
