Despite today's slight rise, the overall technical picture on the daily time frame remains bearish. At the moment, one should pay attention to the vital zone of $60,000.
If it breaks out, the accumulated energy might be enough for a support breakout, followed by a test of $58,000.

From the midterm point of view, one should focus on the weekly candle closure. If it happens far from $59,112, there is a chance to see a bounce back to the $62,000 area soon.
Bitcoin is trading at $61,062 at press time.
