Support & resistance
Daily pivot levelsPrice levels that often act as turning points. Resistance (R1–R3) sits above the current price, where selling has tended to emerge; support (S1–S3) sits below, where buying has tended to step in. The ladder shows where Bitcoin trades within today's range, and each card's mini-chart marks how recent price has tracked that level.

Frequently asked
How is the Bitcoin price on this page sourced?
The Bitcoin (BTC) price, market cap and 24-hour volume come from CoinPaprika, with the chart from Binance daily closes. The time shown near the top of the page is when we last refreshed; figures can lag individual exchanges slightly. Full detail is in our methodology.
What does the market cap actually tell me?
Market capitalisation is the current price multiplied by the circulating supply — a far better measure of size than price alone. A lower-priced coin with a huge supply can be larger than a higher-priced one. We walk through it in market cap explained.
Why are some figures, like 30-day or 1-year change, missing?
We only display values we actually have for a given coin. When a longer-range change or a chart window is not reliably available, we leave it out rather than show a zero or an estimate — honest gaps over fabricated data. Terms are defined in our glossary.
