According to our last weekly update –
- Bitcoin dropped below 9500$, and Ethereum dropped below 240$.
- Last week was slow for overall cryptocurrency market. Last week’s altcoins picks – POE, STORM and FUEL failed to reach targets. We will close last week’s altcoins position at break even.
BTCUSD – Bitcoin Technical Analysis
A “Doji’ Candlestick pattern has appeared on Bitcoin weekly chart after last week’s close. Doji cadlestick pattern indicates a neutral price action, and mostly indecision between bulls and bears.
On a daily time frame, Bitcoin price broke down from 6- weeks old uptrend channel, and a new descending channel has been formed last week. Bitcoin is currently trading inside this new channel.
Descending channel’s support is at 9200$, and resistance is at 9800$. Bitcoin could also face resistance at the previous uptrend channel neckline at 10100$.
On Bearish note, Bitcoin had broke down from 21MA support on daily timeframe.
We expect bitcoin to retest 9200$ support before any significant bounce to the upside, Breaking above 10100$ will be the confirmation of bullish reversal on Daily timeframe.
ETHUSD – Ethereum Technical Analysis
Unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum managed to close last week’s candle at the bullish note. ETHUSD recorded 19.5% growth last week from it’s weekly low.
Ethereum is clearly looking more bullish than bitcoin on Daily and weekly chart. ETHUSD is trading in a symmertric triangle – which is a bullish continuation pattern.
As long, ETHUSD manage to hold this triangle support, I am expecting ETHUSD to break out above 285$ and reach 310$ this week.
But If, ETHUSD fails to hold this support, then we could see ethereum price below 220$ this week.
