Bitcoin

Bitcoin pretty much moved sideways this week after slipping by a small 1%. While predominantly trading in a tight range, BTC did slip beneath a critical level on a couple of occasions but has managed to recover.

Last week, Bitcoin fell beneath a rising trend line formation that had been in play since mid-March. This provided the first alert that the uptrend could be stalling. This week, BTC has found support at a shorter termed rising trend line, adding to the strength of the support at $9,000.

Looking ahead, if the sellers push BTC beneath $9,000, then it would be a sign that they are looking to take charge of the market momentum. The first level of support lies at $8,800 (100-days EMA). Beneath this, added support is found at $8,709 (.382 Fib Retracement), and $8,500 (200-day EMA).

On the other side, the first level of resistance lies at $9,150. This is followed by $9,450, $9,815, and $10,000.

Luckily, ETH rebounded from there this week as it headed higher above the $225 level. Moving forward, if the sellers push beneath $225, the first level of support lies at $215 (.236 Fib Retracement). The next selling targets are found at $210 (100-day EMA) and $200 (200-day EMA).

XRP saw a small 3% price decline for the past week as the coin drops into the $0.175 support, provided by a .5 Fib Retracement. The coin had fallen beneath a descending triangle formation last week, which caused XRP to head lower into the support at $0.175.
