Bitcoin
BTC/USD, TradingView
Amidst developments related to the US infrastructural bill, Bitcoin rallied and surpassed its three-month high as prices touched $46,060 just three days ago. It has been on a bullish ride ever since then, however, today at press time, the crypto asset stood at $45,727 after registering a loss of 2% over the last 24 hours.
Relative Strength Index moved south near the midline, indicating an even buying and selling pressure. Bearish pressure seemed to be building as seen on Awesome Oscillator. Chaikin Money Flow correspondingly highlighted a fall in capital inflows over outflows. The next support level for BTC in case it falls through its $45,500 support line lay at $42,770.
Since the bears have obstructed the rally it is vital for Bitcoin to stay above the $45,500 to try attempting to touch the $48,400 resistance mark.
Ethereum
ETH/USD, TradingView
Ethereum’s uptrend was stalled after it recorded a 2.7% fall in prices over the last 24 hours. At the time of writing, ETH was trading for $3,106 and it fell through its support level of $3,167. A further push from the bears would mean ETH trading around the support region of $2,957. An inability to stabilize in this region could land ETH further below at $2,466.
Technicals point towards a fall in buying strength; Relative Strength Index traded at the midline as it indicated a neutral buying and selling pressure in the market. Red signal bars on Awesome Oscillator also depict a resurgence of bearish force.
