Bitcoin price
After a break above USD 52,000, bitcoin price faced resistance near USD 52,500. As a result, BTC trimmed gains and declined below USD 51,000. The price is down over USD 2,000 and it is now trading below USD 50,000. The first key support is near the USD 48,200 and USD 48,000 levels.
If there is a downside break below the USD 48,000 support, there is a risk of a sharp decline. On the upside, the bulls might face resistance near USD 50,500 and USD 51,200.
Ethereum price
Ethereum price tested the USD 1,650 zone before it started a fresh decline, similar to bitcoin. ETH broke the USD 1,600 support and it even declined below USD 1,550. The price is moving lower and it could even revisit the USD 1,500 support.

BNB, ADA, litecoin, and XRP price
Binance Coin (BNB) failed to clear the USD 250 and USD 255 resistance levels. BNB is correcting gains and it is trading below USD 242. If there are more losses, the price could test USD 232. The next key support is near the USD 225 level. A fresh increase may possibly continue to face sellers near USD 250.
Cardano (ADA) is showing a few bearish signs below the USD 1.220 support level. ADA even declined below USD 1.200 and it might continue lower towards the USD 1.150 support level. Any more losses might call for a test of the USD 1.100 level.
Litecoin (LTC) failed to clear the USD 200 resistance and started a downside correction. LTC is now approaching the USD 185 support level, below which the bears could test USD 175. On the upside, the USD 195 and USD 200 levels remain major hurdles.
XRP price broke the USD 0.450 resistance, but it faced sellers near USD 0.465. The price is now declining and it is back below USD 0.450. The next key support is near USD 0.420. Conversely, the USD 0.465 level is now a key breakout zone.
