Despite the recent market-wide crash, Ethereum continues to lead amid the large-cap cryptocurrencies. Today, we take a closer look into the following cryptos:
Bitcoin
Bitcoin is down by a total of 10% this week as it saw turbulence over the past two days with Telsa removing BTC payments for its vehicles. The cryptocurrency failed to break a falling resistance trend line at around $59,000 at the start of the week and started to head lower from there.
On Wednesday, the announcement from Tesla saw BTC dropping from the 50-days MA at around $56,500 to reach as low as $48,440 by the end of the day. The plummet continued yesterday as BTC dropped as low as $46,000. Luckily, it rebounded by the end of the day to climb above a long-term ascending trend line. Today, it has pushed higher back above $50,000.
Looking ahead, the first resistance lies at $51,000 (bearish .382 Fib). This is followed by $52,650 (bearish .5 Fib), $54,275 (bearish .618 Fib), and $56,500 (50-days MA).
On the other side, the first support now lies at $50,000. This is followed by $48,440 (rising trend line), $47,000 (long term .5 Fib), $46,000 (weekly low), and $44,750.
Ethereum
Ethereum is up by a total of 14.6% from last week’s price as it currently sits at $4,000. The coin was trading inside a steep ascending price channel since the end of April as it pushed higher to set a new ATH this week at $4373.
From there, ETH rolled over when BTC collapsed beneath $50,000 – causing ETH to drop beneath the price channel. It found support around $3670 (.236 Fib) and rebounded today to break back above $4000.
Looking ahead, the first resistance lies at $4200 (1.414 Fib Extension). This is followed by the ATH at $4373, $4535 (1.618 Fib Extension), and $4755 (1.272 Fib Extension – blue).
On the other side, the first support comes in at $3672 (.236 Fib). This is followed by $3500, $3338 (.382 Fib & 20-day MA), $3250, and $3070 (.5 Fib).
