Bitcoin saw another 4% price hike this week, which had it breaking above the $16,000 level to reach as high as $16,491 today. The coin has since dropped slightly to trade at $16,135 at the time of writing.
Last week, the coin had surged into the $16,000 level, which caused it to roll over and drop into the $14,850 support last Saturday. Bitcoin managed to rebound higher from there as it started to climb on Sunday. The coin did not return to $16,000 until Wednesday, and it surged above the resistance yesterday to reach as high as $16,400.
Looking ahead, if the buyers manage to break $16,400 again, the first level of higher resistance lies at $16,720 (1.272 Fib Extension). Following this, resistance lies at $16,800, $17,000, and $17,186 (2018 Highs). Additional resistance lies at $17,500, $17,680, and $18,000.

The coin struggled to break the resistance at $456 over the weekend and only managed to penetrate above it on Wednesday.
After breaking $456, ETH went on to breach the resistance at $462.50 (bearish .886 Fib Retracement) and spike as high as $475 (September high-day close). It was unable to maintain this high and dropped slightly in the $462.50 support.
Today, ETH climbed higher to reach the resistance at the upper boundary of the rising price channel.
Looking ahead, if the buyers can break the upper boundary of the price channel, the first level of resistance lies at $475 (September highday close). Above this, resistance is expected at $490, $500, and $511.

The coin bounced higher from this support today to reach 0.029 BTC but still must break the 200-days EMA resistance ahead.
Moving forward, the first level of resistance lies at 0.0295 BTC (200-days EMA). Above this, resistance lies at 0.03 BTC, 0.0305 BTC, and 0.031 BTC (100-days EMA).

Looking ahead, if the buyers can break the resistance at the $0.261 level (bearish .5 Fib Retracement), higher resistance is located at $0.271 (bearish .618 Fib), $0.28, and $0.286 (bearish .786 Fib Retracement).
