    Bitcoin Price Now At 7-Day High, Altcoins Follow: Sunday’s Crypto Market Watch

    Author: Jordan Lyanchev

    Last Updated Jan 5, 2020 @ 09:43

    Only a few days ago, the price of Bitcoin plunged to $6,850 (Bitstamp) in a violent red candle. However, the bulls quickly took charge, and the price recovered to over $7,200 in the next few hours, and since then, the state of BTC has been ever healthier.

    The largest cryptocurrency is currently trading safely above $7,400, which is a 1.5% increase in the last 24 hours. This comes shortly after marking $7500 as the daily high, as of writing these lines. As CryptoPotato recently reported, Bitcoin recorded most of its gains last year during the weekends, and this trend continues to the first week of 2020.

    Technically, Bitcoin is now retesting good old support turned resistance level. If Bitcoin continues above, then the next target might be the $7,700 resistance, before getting to the $8K benchmark again. Looking at the other option, the first level of support is at $7,200, followed by $7,000.

    Bitcoin is not the only asset heading upwards today. In fact, most of the market is in green – Ethereum rises with almost 3% to $138, and ripple is at $0.196, which is an increase of around 1.5%. In the matter of trading against Bitcoin, the dominance hasn’t changed, so the altcoins aren’t gaining nor losing against their BTC value.

    Other gainers within the top currencies include Litecoin (2%) to $43.5, EOS (2.22%) to $2.71, BNB (2.26%) to $14.12. Bitcoin SV is the most impressive one in the top 10, with a 4.29% surge to over $110.
