Bitcoin (BTC) increased by 0.29% on Thursday. BTC finished the day at $20,223, somewhat correcting a loss of 1.63% on Wednesday. Notably, BTC avoided sub-$20,000 for the eighth day in a row while snapping a four-day losing run.


BTC increased to a morning high of $20,404 thanks to a positive start to the day. BTC dropped to a midday low of $20,052 after failing to surpass the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $20,629 throughout the day. However, BTC returned to $20,356 before easing down, avoiding the First Major Support Level (S1) at $19,900.


US economic statistics supported the price of bitcoin.


The ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI decreased from 56.7 to 54.4 in October. Analysts predict a drop to 55.5.


The Index's sub-components were diverse. The non-manufacturing employment index for ISM dropped from 50.0 to 49.1. The Prices Index, however, increased from 68.7 to 70.7.


The unit labor cost data and other statistics, which were crypto-positive, contained unemployed claims. Initial unemployment claims saw a slight dip from 218k to 217k, while unit labor expenses increased by 3.5% in Q3, down from 8.9% in Q2.


Although the statistics supported cryptocurrency, Fed Chair Powell's statement continued to challenge the willingness of buyers. The markets continued to react to Fed Chair Powell's speech on Wednesday, which contributed to the NASDAQ Composite Index's decline of 1.73% on Thursday.


The US employment data released today will significantly affect the NASDAQ Composite Index and the cryptocurrency market.


The association between BTC and the NASDAQ Composite Index remains due to the cryptocurrency's sensitivity to US economic data and the FED. The NASDAQ 100 Mini was up 0.5 points this morning.
