Ethereum, Ripple, Cardano, Solana, and Avalanche

Ethereum

Ethereum is down a sharp 21% this week as the coin sits beneath $3000. The sell-off started on Monday when ETH slipped beneath the neckline of a head & shoulders pattern and the 50-day MA. Initially, the market found support at $3000 but would continue to fall beneath it on Tuesday to find support at $2770 (.786 Fib Retracement).

ETH did rebound on Wednesday and Thursday as it climbed back above $3000. However, it lost another sharp 9% today, causing it to break back beneath $3000 and reach the support at the 100-day MA at around $2730.

Looking ahead, if the sellers push lower, the first support lies between $2770 (.786 Fib) and $2730 (100-day MA). This is followed by $2600 (200-day MA), $2500, $2420 (downside 1.618 Fib Extension), and $2200 (.786 Fib).

ETH is also struggling against BTC this week as it dropped as low as 0.0667 BTC (downside 1.272 Fib Extension) today. The cryptocurrency fell beneath the 50-day MA and 0.07 BTC on Monday as it continued to slide until support was met at 0.068 BTC. The level there was bolstered by a rising trend line that allowed ETH to rebound on Wednesday.

Unfortunately, ETH was unable to overcome the resistance at the 50-day MA and fell from there today to reach as low as 0.0667 BTC. It has since bounced and is trading above the rising trend line.

XRP held $0.875 on Tuesday and rebounded from there on Wednesday to return to $1. Unfortunately, the buyers could not break this level and fell from there today to return to the 100-day MA support.
