Bitcoin is making waves once again, flashing strength on the weekly chart as it closes well above key moving averages. With momentum indicators still favoring the bulls and no signs of exhaustion in sight, the current setup hints that the rally might be far from over. Could this be the beginning of an even bigger breakout? Bitcoin Stays Elevated: Bulls Show No Signs of Fatigue In a recent update shared on X, Shaco AI highlighted Bitcoin’s continued bullish momentum, pointing to strong weekly performance on the BTC/USDT chart. The analyst noted that BTC has “ballooned past recent expectations,” closing the week at an impressive $105,700. Related Reading: Bitcoin At A Crossroads: $97,000 Cost Basis Holds Key To Next Breakout This places the asset well above its 25-week Simple Moving Average (SMA) of $95,009.55 and the 50-week SMA at $83,318.12, an encouraging technical signal that suggests Bitcoin’s uptrend remains firmly intact. As Shaco AI put it, “The party isn’t over yet,” hinting that bullish sentiment could carry BTC even higher. Technical indicators further support this upbeat outlook. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently reads 63.51, indicating that buying momentum remains robust without entering overbought territory. This suggests that traders are still comfortable accumulating at current levels, and the market hasn’t yet reached a point of exhaustion.  Furthermore, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) remains firmly in positive territory at 5835.33. The MACD’s positioning reflects steady buyer interest and a favorable trend structure, both of which are crucial for sustaining an upward move.  Volume Slackens While Price Nears Critical Resistance Zone The analyst went on to point out that despite the bullish setup currently seen on Bitcoin’s chart, the enthusiasm might be tempered by softening trading volume. Specifically, trading volume has only reached 95,302, significantly lower than the average volume of 179,421.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Slips Again, Triggering Fresh Fears of a Deeper Correction This discrepancy signals a noticeable dip in market participation, raising the question of whether the ongoing price rally has enough fuel to sustain its momentum in the short term. As the analyst emphasized, this drop in volume is worth watching closely since it may influence the momentum of next week’s price action. Looking at the broader picture, Bitcoin is approaching a major resistance level at $111,980. This key barrier represents a potential turning point; either it gets broken and paves the way for further upside, or it holds and prompts a short-term correction. Should a pullback occur, the analyst noted that BTC appears to have a comfortable support zone at $49,000, which could act as a solid cushion. In any case, the analyst suggests keeping a close eye on how these technical levels play out, as they could dictate Bitcoin’s next big move.

After days of fluctuating around the $105,000 range, Bitcoin appears to be succumbing to pressure from bears and profit-taking from traders. The most recent 24 hours were marked by Bitcoin losing its hold on the $105,000 price level, crashing until it rebounded at a lower support range around $101,000. However, technical analysis of Bitcoin’s daily candlestick timeframe chart shows that this price level is increasingly under threat, and a formation is currently in place that could lead to a price crash towards $96,000. Bitcoin Head And Shoulders Pattern Forming Crypto analyst Titan of Crypto has highlighted what is a textbook head and shoulders formation on the daily chart. This bearish pattern, if completed, would imply a breakdown toward the $96,000 price zone, according to the analyst.  Related Reading: Major Bitcoin Price Drop Alert: Crash To $98,000 To Fuel Altcoin Buying Opportunity The setup is clearly defined by a peak (head) around mid-May that is flanked by two lower highs (shoulders) on either side, all sitting atop a slanted neckline that now acts as the last line of support. As of now, Bitcoin is trading just above this neckline, testing its structural integrity. In technical analysis, a clean break below the neckline accompanied by strong volume often activates the measured move from the head’s peak to the neckline, projected downward. Based on the chart, that drop points directly to $96,054. This puts Bitcoin at risk of a near 8% drawdown from current levels, with little support in between.  Aside from this formation, Bitcoin’s daily RSI is currently around the 50 reading, which is a zone that often triggers reactions. As such, a drop below this midline will confirm a bearish shift in momentum. Bitcoin Price Action Closing On Bearish Mode If Bitcoin does collapse toward the $96,000 level, it would mark a departure from the bullish strength that dominated its price just two weeks ago when it registered a new all-time high at $111,814. Since then, however, Bitcoin has lost subsequent support levels at $110,000, $107,000, and $105,000, which now places the next zone of importance at $103,000. Should Bitcoin fail to hold above that threshold, the pressure would likely shift toward the $101,000 level, which could act as the final buffer before steeper declines. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Crash Below $100,000 Still Possible: Analysts Issue Downtrend Warnings Interestingly, the neckline level of the inverse head and shoulders pattern highlighted by crypto analyst Titan of Crypto is around the $103,500 price level. Bitcoin broke below this price level in the past 24 hours, but the bulls managed to prevent further losses below $101,700. This has led to the creation of lower lows on the daily timeframe. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $103,250, which means it is back to testing the neckline resistance from below. Its reaction here would determine if it eventually crashes toward $96,000. If sellers take control at this level, it would not only confirm the head and shoulders breakdown but could also lead to a short-term capitulation across other cryptocurrencies.

Grayhoood, a crypto trader, said on X that Litecoin is currently experiencing a bearish trend, emphasizing the ongoing weakness in price action. Over the past 24 hours, LTC has decreased by 2.8%, and the candlestick charts reflect a noticeable downward movement.  As shown in the chart he referenced, LTC started the day around $89.00 but faced a sharp decline, dropping to $87.00 before managing a brief recovery to $88.50. However, the price has since fallen again to $84, indicating sustained selling pressure in the short term. Momentum Fades: RSI Drifts Toward Oversold Territory According to Grayhoood, current technical indicators suggest that Litecoin may face further downside, with multiple metrics aligning to support a bearish short-term outlook. One of the primary indicators in focus is the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which appears to be drifting toward oversold territory.  Related Reading: Indecisive Close For Litecoin, But The Real Story Lies In BTC.D’s Next Move While such a move could hint at a potential bounce, Grayhoood cautions that it also signals bearish sentiment in the market. Beyond the RSI, momentum oscillators such as the Stochastic indicator and the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) are also painting a gloomy picture. These tools are typically used to gauge market reversals and the strength of ongoing trends. In this case, both are tilting toward further downward momentum if no strong bullish catalyst appears, especially as prices struggle to hold above the $87 support level. Short-Term Declines Contrast with Yearly Gains in LTC’s Moving Averages The analyst further highlighted a mixed outlook from Litecoin’s moving averages, suggesting a market caught between short-term weakness and long-term potential. In the near term, shorter-duration averages are flashing strong sell signals. These are driven by LTC’s recent negative performance, with a -9.0% drop over the past week and a -12.5% decline over the last two weeks, painting a clear picture of growing bearish momentum and sustained selling pressure. Related Reading: Market Expert Projects ‘Undervalued’ Litecoin To Soar At Least 1,000% — Here’s How However, the longer-term moving averages tell a different story. Despite recent setbacks, Litecoin has posted a 2.3% gain over the past year, which keeps the long-term trend technically bullish. This divergence suggests that while short-term traders may be responding to immediate price volatility and weakness, long-term investors could still see value in the asset, especially if broader market conditions stabilize or improve. That said, the broader market sentiment currently leans bearish, weighed down by Litecoin’s inability to maintain key support levels amid recent price volatility. Even with long-term growth providing a degree of optimism, the prevailing trend is defined by downward pressure and uncertainty. Until short-term indicators begin to align with the long-term bullish structure, Litecoin may continue to face a challenging environment. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Ethereum has so far underperformed in this market cycle but looks ready to mount a parabolic rally based on analysts’ predictions. Crypto analyst Crypto Bullet recently highlighted a bullish pattern on ETH’s chart, which provides a bullish outlook for the altcoin.  Ethereum Eyes $3,300 As Morningstar Candle Pattern Forms In an X post, Crypto Bullet predicted that Ethereum could rally to $3,300 as a Morningstar Candle pattern forms for the largest altcoin by market cap. This came as he highlighted the bullish monthly close for ETH and alluded to the monthly chart printing this bullish pattern. With this, the analyst expects a significant rally from Ethereum.  Related Reading: Ethereum Price At $8,000: Pundit Predicts Parabolic Run For ETH Crypto Bullet noted that Ethereum is now facing tough resistance, but he believes that the $2,500 resistance will be broken. The analyst added that his next target is $3,300. Meanwhile, crypto analyst Ash Crypto also provided a bullish analysis for ETH, in which he declared that the Wyckoff accumulation was still in play.  He remarked that the first major level to reclaim is $3,100, which will be followed by a small correction. Following that, Ash Crypto is confident that ETH will then surge to $4,000, which will initiate an explosive rally. The analyst affirmed that $10,000 is programmed for ETH in this cycle.  As NewsBTC reported, crypto analyst Crypto GEM recently predicted that Ethereum could rally to $8,000 by next year. Crypto analyst Titan of Crypto also highlighted $5,000, $7,000, and $8,500 as the targets for ETH’s market structure.  Meanwhile, just like Ash Crypto, crypto analyst Mikybull Crypto is also confident that the altcoin can reach as high as $10,000 in this market cycle. He highlighted a similarity between Ethereum’s current price action and that of the 2017 market cycle.  Ongoing V-Shape Recovery For ETH In an X post, crypto analyst Titan of Crypto highlighted an ongoing V-shape recovery for Ethereum. He noted that ETH has kicked off a sharp reversal, forming a classic V-shape structure on the weekly chart. His accompanying chart showed that ETH could rally to as high as $7,600 on this run-up.  Related Reading: Crypto Trader Dumps XRP Holdings For Ethereum, Explains Why Crypto analyst Mikybull Crypto stated that Ethereum is flirting with a breakout. The analyst further noted that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is already breaking out. His accompanying chart showed that ETH could rally to as high as $3,600 on this breakout. He also declared that the fifth time of ETH’s move to the MA20 will be a thrust through. The altcoin is expected to break the $2,600 resistance on this move.  At the time of writing, the Ethereum price is trading at around $2,450, down almost 6% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

XRP’s price action is currently exhibiting a back-and-forth pattern around $2.20, but an interesting technical analysis suggests it may soon leave this price level. A chart analysis posted by a crypto analyst on the social media platform X has given an interesting projection about XRP’s next move. By overlaying XRP’s current weekly chart with its explosive 2017 fractal, the analyst hints that the altcoin might be on the verge of a repeat performance that sends it far beyond its current price range. 2017 XRP Fractal Overlaid Technical analysis of XRP price action on the weekly timeframe reveals an interesting pattern that has been unfolding over multiple weeks. This interesting pattern began with the intense XRP price rally in Q4 2024, which eventually ended in a consolidation around $2, as seen in the current price action. This, in turn, has led to the formation of a flag pattern that is still playing out. Related Reading: Analyst Shows 3-Cycle Ride For XRP Price To Reach $46 The core of the analyst’s technical analysis lies in the uncanny resemblance between XRP’s present market structure and the bullish pattern that preceded the historic 2017 rally. As such, the analyst overlaid the 2017 fractal onto the current price action, revealing a formation that mirrors a giant bull flag, which is often interpreted as a technical continuation pattern. The analysis also places into focus XRP’s ongoing interaction with the 50-week exponential moving average (EMA) on the weekly candlestick timeframe. Back in 2017, this level acted as a support base for XRP’s vertical breakout. Now, the current pattern shows the cryptocurrency is once again consolidating directly above this moving average, which the analyst describes as the foundation of a giga bull flag. The resemblance doesn’t stop at price structure. The analyst also draws attention to the RSI behavior. Back in 2017, the RSI entered a flat compressed zone between two spikes on the weekly timeframe, a pattern that appears to be repeating today. The first RSI peak has already formed, and the current flattening phase suggests a possible second spike may soon follow, which could correlate with a breakout in price if the fractal stays valid. What To Expect If 2017 Fractal Plays Out Again? The implications are exciting if XRP follows the same trajectory as it did in 2017. The overlay suggests a price rally beyond $20, which would represent the biggest rally so far in XRP’s price history. The projected move would take XRP far beyond its 2018 all-time high of $3.40 and establish a new price floor above double digits for the cryptocurrency. This projection aligns with other projections in similar technical analyses from other cryptocurrency analysts. Related Reading: XRP Price Is Now Targeting $4 After Reversal From ‘Buy Zone’ At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.2, down by 2,3% in the past 24 hours. Whether or not XRP follows the 2017 pattern exactly remains to be seen, but the similarities in price behavior, RSI compression, and EMA support are difficult to dismiss.

Dogecoin’s open interest is in focus, with this crucial metric highlighting the amount of interest that the top meme coin is getting at the moment. This comes as DOGE continues to struggle below the psychological $0.2 level, providing a bearish outlook for the meme coin.  Dogecoin Open Interest Averages $2 Billion In June Coinglass data shows that Dogecoin open interest (OI) has been hovering around $2 billion since the start of this month. This represents a drop from the open interest recorded in May. DOGE’s OI had climbed to as high as $3.07 billion on May 11 as the meme coin’s price surged to $0.25.  Related Reading: Forget Dogecoin At $1: Price Could Rally To $12 If History Repeats Itself This drop in Dogecoin open interest can be attributed to the drop in DOGE’s price since then. The meme coin began the month below the psychological $0.2 level, which has sparked bearish sentiments. Open interest refers to the amount of interest in the derivatives market for a particular asset. As such, a drop in this metric is usually bearish.  However, it is worth mentioning that the Dogecoin open interest is still above the monthly average recorded in March and April, during the period when the Trump tariffs caused crypto assets to tumble. Back then, DOGE dropped to as low as $0.14 and was at risk of losing its bull market structure.  Crypto analyst BitMonty expects DOGE to bounce back amid this drop in the Dogecoin open interest. In an X post, he said the meme coin is testing the 0.618 Fib retracement and the lower boundary of a falling wedge. He added that this is a high confluence bounce zone, and reversal signs could spark a breakout move soon. BitMonty predicts that DOGE could rally to as high as $0.26420 on this bounce.  DOGE Setting Up For A Bullish Reversal In an X post, crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade indicated that the Dogecoin price may be setting up for a bullish reversal. He revealed that DOGE is returning to the previous swing low, while the RSI shows a higher low. The analyst noted that this could lead to a bullish divergence, indicating weakened selling momentum and early signs of a potential reversal to the upside.  Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Expected To Reach $3 By EOY As 2021 Cycle Trend Returns In another X post, Trader Tardigrade stated that Dogecoin is expected to experience a significant surge before entering a prolonged falling wedge pullback. Interestingly, his accompanying chart showed that the meme coin could rally to as high as $30. However, this price surge isn’t expected to happen in just this market cycle alone, with the chart highlighting 2029 as the target year to reach this price level. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at around $0.18, down over 3% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Despite the recent rally to a new all-time high (ATH) of $111,900, crypto analysts have warned that the Bitcoin price could still witness a massive crash that will send it below $100,000. These analysts highlighted fundamentals and technicals that could spark this price crash.  Analysts Highlight Why Bitcoin Price Could Still Crash Below $100,000 In a TradingView post, crypto analyst Stephan mentioned the geopolitical tensions, with the Russia-Ukraine conflict intensifying as one of the factors that could spark the Bitcoin price crash. He explained how this conflict could drive investors toward safe-haven assets, such as gold. The analyst also noted that Bitcoin ETFs experienced modest outflows last week. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Crash To $104,000: What You Need To Know In June Stephan’s accompanying chart showed that the Bitcoin price could drop to as low as $96,765 as it retests the psychological $100,000 support level. Crypto analyst Nova also warned that Bitcoin could drop to $100,000 while providing a technical analysis of the flagship crypto’s current price action.  In a TradingView post, Nova stated that if the Bitcoin price faces resistance around the $106,406 daily level and continues to correct, it could extend the decline to retest the psychologically important $100,000 mark. She further revealed that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart is at 53, trending downwards to the neutral level of 50. This indicates weakening bullish momentum. Nova also stated that the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) showed a bearish crossover last week. Meanwhile, the analyst alluded to the increasing red histogram bars below the baseline, which she claimed further signal a potential correction ahead. Her accompanying chart showed that the Bitcoin price could drop to $99,000 as it retests the $100,000 level.  Crypto analyst Kevin Capital also called for caution at the current Bitcoin price level. He stated that nothing has changed for the flagship crypto and indicated that there was no need to be ultra bullish at this current level. The analyst earlier warned that things could get sketchy looking for BTC if it fails to reclaim $106,800 soon enough.  BTC Could Still Rally To $135,000 This Year In an X post, crypto analyst Titan of Crypto raised the possibility of the Bitcoin price rallying to $135,000 this year. He noted that BTC has broken out of a right-angled descending broadening wedge, and if the price holds above the breakout zone, $135,000 becomes a realistic target. The analyst added that the structure is clean.  Related Reading: Head And Shoulders Pattern Says Bitcoin Price Is Headed Down Toward $95,000 Crypto analyst Mikybull Crypto stated that the Bitcoin price is gearing up for a new all-time high. He further remarked that $120,000 remains a magnet for the flagship crypto in this market cycle. Meanwhile, veteran trader Peter Brandt predicted that BTC could reach $150,000 by late summer 2025.  At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $105,400, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Bitcoin’s current price action is marked by a consolidation around the $105,500 price level. Although it reached an intraday high of $106,807, it has since returned to $105,500, and its dominance also witnessed a minor fall. Notably, Bitcoin’s dominance metric, the BTC.D, which measures its share of the total crypto market capitalization, has stalled around the 64% level in recent weeks. This stalling behavior drew attention from a certified market analyst, especially in light of many altcoins struggling to gain momentum in an environment dominated by Bitcoin’s inflow. BTC Dominance Hits Resistance, Candlestick Flash Warnings According to certified Level III CMT analyst Tony “The Bull” Severino, the 64% region on the Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) chart could mark a meaningful reversal point. Sharing his insights alongside a technical chart of Bitcoin’s market cap dominance on the monthly timeframe, Severino pointed out that the latest monthly candlestick formed a Doji right at the bottom of a previous Falling Window.  Related Reading: Altcoin Season: Bitcoin Dominance Reaches Critical Level Above 64% In Japanese candlestick theory, such “windows” are not just gaps to be filled but serve as critical zones of support or resistance. The fact that BTC.D formed a Doji candle precisely at this window, according to Severino, is a textbook reaction suggesting the dominance rally may be losing strength. This candlestick structure brings the focus onto how the current monthly candlestick plays out. If the current monthly candle becomes an Evening Star candlestick and closes below 62%, the odds of Bitcoin dominance rolling over increase significantly.  Altcoin Season Not Quite There Yet As noted by Tony, if Bitcoin’s dominance candlestick this month forms an Evening Star pattern and closes below 62%, it has a high possibility of marking the end of the cryptocurrency’s current dominance. However, the analyst added a key caveat: the BTC.D Relative Strength Index (RSI) closed the previous month above 70, still suggesting strong momentum and keeping the larger trend in flux. Related Reading: Is Altcoin Season Over Or It Never Started? Here’s What Historical Data Says Despite these early signals, Severino warned against jumping the gun. Although the technical evidence points to a possible short-term reversal in dominance, he clarified that it does not necessarily guarantee a full-fledged altcoin season. In his words, “I am still not of the mindset that we will get a typical altcoin season, but I am seeing some of the first signs that BTC.D might reverse here.” For now, Bitcoin continues to hold steady above $105,000, and until BTC.D breaks convincingly below 62%, the cryptocurrency is in dominance. Nonetheless, the altcoin market could soon be looking at its first real window of opportunity in months. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $105,500, down by 0.1% in the past 24 hours. Bitcoin dominance is currently at 63.1%, down by 0.57% in the past 24 hours. Ethereum, on the other hand, increased its market share by 2.13% to 9.6%.

XRP is once again under the spotlight as its price action shows signs of weakening across multiple timeframes. After a brief period of relative stability, recent breakdowns on the daily and intraday charts suggest a shift in market momentum that traders can’t ignore. As bearish pressure mounts and critical support levels begin to falter, XRP’s next move has become a major topic – will it find its footing soon, or is a deeper correction on the horizon? The XRP Key Bullish Divergence In an X update, prominent crypto analyst Gowanus Monster highlighted a critical technical development for XRP. According to his analysis, the token has completed a bearish Descending Triangle formation across multiple timeframes, a classic pattern that often signals continuation to the downside. Based on the measured move from this structure, the projected target is around $1.90, suggesting a potentially significant retracement if bearish momentum continues to build. Related Reading: XRP Price Slips Again — Is a Deeper Correction Underway? Zooming out to the weekly chart, the pattern is beginning to evolve into a well-defined structure, with clear upper and lower boundaries. Gowanus Monster noted that the current focus lies on identifying a higher low within this channel.  He also pointed to a key principle: when a price rebound from the upper boundary of a descending channel fails to reach the lower boundary, instead bottoming out early, it often precedes a bullish breakout to the upside. This nuanced behavior, if confirmed, may set the stage for XRP to defy the current bearish structure and ignite a fresh rally beyond the confines of its channel. Bear Trap Scenario: When Oversold Meets Demand According to crypto analyst GemXBT, XRP remains firmly entrenched in a short-term downtrend, with price action currently trading below the 5, 10, and 20-period moving averages. This alignment of moving averages is a classic sign of sustained bearish momentum, suggesting that sellers continue to dominate the market in the near term. Related Reading: XRP Price Confirms Bullish Reversal Setup With This Demand Zone Presently, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dipped into the oversold zone, suggesting an imminent reversal or a period of consolidation as the market seeks equilibrium. Meanwhile, the MACD line remains below the signal line, indicating that downside pressure persists, and any potential recovery could face headwinds. From a price structure standpoint, GemXBT identified key support around $2.15, which could serve as a critical level for buyers to step in and defend. On the upside, resistance lies near $2.25, a zone that bulls would need to reclaim in order to shift short-term sentiment. The recent uptick in trading volume is worth noting, as it could introduce more volatility in the sessions ahead, either accelerating a breakdown if support fails or fueling a sharp recovery if sentiment flips.

The Bitcoin price has not quite been able to maintain the bullish momentum that saw it climb to a new all-time high last week. Instead, the premier cryptocurrency has succumbed to bearish pressure over the past few days, falling about 7% from its record-high price. Unfortunately, the Bitcoin price seems to be at the start of what could be a disappointing downward run over the coming weeks. The latest technical price data indicate a potential bearish trend reversal for the price of BTC, with the market leader at risk of losing its six-figure valuation. Which Technical Indicators Are Sounding The Sell Alarm? In a May 30 post on the X platform, crypto analyst Burak Kesmeci provided a technical insight into the price of Bitcoin, explaining that signs are quickly turning bearish for the flagship cryptocurrency. The online pundit projected that BTC could face a severe price downturn to around the $93,000 level in the near future. Related Reading: Halfway To Clean: Bitcoin Hits 50% Renewable Mark, Ripple Chairman Reacts Kesmeci highlighted changes in some technical indicators on the daily timeframe, suggesting that a correction might be on the horizon for the Bitcoin price. One of these indicators is the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI), a momentum indicator that estimates the speed and magnitude of an asset’s price movements. As observed in the chart above, the daily RSI is around 51 points and below the 14-day simple moving average (SMA). According to the crypto analyst, this technical indicator shift points to a weakening bullish momentum for the Bitcoin price. Kesmeci also noted that the Fixed Range Volume Profile (FRVP), which analyzes trading volume around a price region, signals a heavy trading zone around the $103,500 level. A sustained close beneath this level could lead to elevated selling pressure for the flagship cryptocurrency, the analyst said. Furthermore, Kesmeci mentioned that the AlphaTrend indicates that a second close below 106.269 may trigger a “sell” signal for the Bitcoin price. Meanwhile, the Average Directional Index (ADX) suggests that the bears are gaining the upper hand in the market. Finally, Kesmeci pinpointed the next target at the 0.5 Fibonnaci level and the FRVP Value Area Low (VAL), both of which could be considered major support zones, at around $93,000 and $91,800, respectively. Ultimately, all these technical levels suggest that the Bitcoin price may correct to the $91,000 – $93,000 bracket. Bitcoin Price At A Glance As of this writing, the price of BTC is hovering around the $104,000 mark, reflecting an almost 2% decline in the past 24 hours.

Avalanche (AVAX) just took a sharp turn as it drops below a key 4-hour trendline, signaling a potential shift in momentum that has traders on high alert. What once looked like a steady climb has suddenly faltered, raising concerns about further downside pressure for the crypto asset if buyers fail to reclaim control.  Failure To Reclaim May Trigger New Lows For Avalanche In his recent post, TradingGain noted that “Avalanche breakdown signals a shift in momentum from bullish to bearish,” marking a pivotal moment for the asset. The price has slipped below a key trendline on the 4-hour chart, which had previously provided strong support during the recent uptrend. This breach suggests that selling pressure is beginning to outweigh bullish momentum. Related Reading: Avalanche (AVAX) Eyes 30% Rally Amid Cup-And-Handle Pattern Breakout He further pointed out that AVAX is “currently retesting the broken trendline.” This stage is critical, as it often determines whether a breakdown will be confirmed or invalidated. If the bulls manage to push the price back above this level, there could be a chance for a rebound.  However, a failure to reclaim the trendline might open the door for a deeper correction toward $21 and below.” This reinforces the need for traders to watch the price action closely in the coming sessions, especially around the retest zone, as it could shape the next major move for Avalanche. Momentum Fades As RSI Weakens Further strengthening the case for a bearish shift, TradingGain also pointed out that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is flashing signs of weakness. The RSI has been steadily declining, reinforcing the idea that momentum is tilting in favor of the bears. This adds another layer of confirmation to the recent trendline break, suggesting that the upward trajectory may be losing steam. He emphasized the importance of closely monitoring price action between $22.8 to $23.0, a previous support region now acting as a potential resistance level. If AVAX fails to reclaim this zone and faces rejection, it could solidify the bearish narrative and open the door for further downside movement. For now, traders should remain cautious and watch how the market reacts around this crucial area. Related Reading: Avalanche (AVAX) Overextended—Is A Market Shakeup Imminent? In his concluding remarks, the analyst urged traders to stay alert and avoid rushing into trades. He emphasized the importance of letting the market reveal its direction before making any decisive moves, especially with Avalanche sitting at a key level. At the time of writing, Avalanche is changing hands at approximately $23.74, posting a 6.61% increase in price over the past 24 hours. The upward move is accompanied by a 5.72% rise in trading volume, suggesting a fresh wave of market participation. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

After mirroring Bitcoin’s strong breakout over the past week, XRP recently surged to an intraday high of $2.47 before retracing to a lower daily close. Despite this, the broader outlook for XRP is bullish, with the altcoin generally moving in lockstep with Bitcoin and the wider crypto rally. According to recent analysis, a key technical signal just flashed, one that previously preceded a massive 600% rally in November 2024. Familiar Weekly RSI Signal Returns After 200 Days According to crypto analyst Dark Defender, XRP has once again produced a rare Golden Cross on its weekly RSI indicator, an event that last occurred on November 4, 2024. That signal directly preceded XRP’s explosive 600% rally, and its reappearance points to the potential emergence of a similar trajectory for the crypto.  Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Explains XRP Price Roadmap To $37 As Bears Fight For Control Notably, the appearance of the new RSI cross coincides with the elimination of a long-standing weekly resistance trendline after XRP broke to $2.59 on May 14. The analyst’s chart clearly highlights this breakout, with a bright green trendline now breached and a bullish pin bar candlestick forming just above it, adding strength to the bullish case. The RSI’s behavior in the 1W candlestick timeframe chart below is also particularly telling. The purple RSI line has crossed above the yellow moving average once again, exactly as it did in early November 2024. Back then, XRP flashed the cross when its price was trading around $0.5. However, the ensuing price action saw it explode by over 600% to peak at a multi-year high around $3.31 on January 12, 2025.  $3.33 In Sight, But $5.85 May Be The Real Prize Considering the previous price action after the weekly RSI cross in late 2024, crypto analyst Dark Defender’s outlook is based on repeating the same 600% rally or close in the coming weeks. Following this development, Dark Defender has outlined two key price targets.  Related Reading: XRP Price Confirms Bullish Reversal Setup With This Demand Zone The first is $3.33, close to the multi-year peak in January 2025. Should XRP break past that level, the next major target lies around $5.85, corresponding to the 261.8% Fibonacci level. The analyst refers to this upper range as the parapet, meaning that this level could be the next all-time high peak after the price rally. The Elliott Wave structure plotted on the chart outlines a five-wave impulsive move, and XRP is now about to enter wave III, the longest and most powerful wave in a bullish cycle. If this structure plays out as expected, XRP could rapidly push through $2.59, hold above $3.33, and rally toward the upper boundary of the projection range. Interestingly, none of these price targets uses a repeat of the full 600% rally. The $3.33 target is 43% away from the current price level, while $5.85 represents a 150% gain from the current price. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.34. Featured image from Pexels, chart from Tradingview.com

Solana (SOL) is beginning to show signs of renewed strength as technical indicators hint at a potential breakout. On the weekly chart, the MACD is curling up and has recently crossed above the signal line, a bullish signal that often precedes major price movements. With momentum slowly building, traders are now watching closely to see if this shift marks the beginning of a larger rally. Momentum Builds For A Possible Solana Breakout In a recent X post, market analyst Willjayducks drew attention to a significant bearish divergence that unfolded on the Solana weekly chart. He pointed out that as the price surged into its blow-off top, the RSI and MACD indicators showed weakening momentum. This divergence between price action and momentum indicators is a classic technical pattern that typically precedes sharp corrections. Related Reading: Solana Flips Bullish: Price Climbs Above Ichimoku Cloud With Strong Momentum Following this setup, Solana experienced a steep decline, shedding approximately 67% of its value in just 84 days. According to Willjayducks, this dramatic drop suggests the bearish divergence has “arguably played out,” implying that the correction phase may be nearing its end.  He further elaborated that the MACD is now curling upward and has recently crossed above the signal line. This crossover suggests that the recent downward pressure may be easing, setting the stage for a potential recovery. According to his analysis, if SOL can gather enough strength and sustain its current upward momentum, the MACD line could eventually cross above the zero line, a more definitive bullish signal that typically confirms a shift in trend. Should this scenario unfold, the analyst believes Solana may be poised to push toward new highs, reigniting interest among traders and investors. However, he also noted a word of caution: if or when this bullish breakout occurs, he’ll be closely monitoring the chart for any emerging signs of bearish divergence, which could once again hint at an overheated market. Bearish Outcome Still On The Table In the climax, the analyst mentioned that there is still a chance things just fizzle out here and continue into a bear trend. Despite recent bullish signals and technical improvements, he cautioned that the current momentum might not be strong enough to sustain a full reversal.  Related Reading: Solana Short-Term Indicator Signals Potential Risk – Reversal Or Pause? While price action may stall, leading the market back into a prolonged period of downside movement, Willjayducks emphasized that all we can do for now is watch price action closely and plan for all scenarios. Whether the market pushes higher or fades into weakness, he advised staying alert and adaptable. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Chainlink (LINK) is showing renewed strength as its price moves higher within a well-defined rising channel pattern. After a period of consolidation, LINK has entered a rally mode, forming the channel, a classic signal of sustained upward movement. This technical setup suggests that the bulls are firmly in control, and unless a major shift in sentiment occurs, the uptrend could continue in the short to mid-term. Chainlink Breaks Above 200 MA: Bullish Momentum Builds On M30 In an X post, crypto analyst Thomas Anderson highlighted that Chainlink is exhibiting notable bullish momentum on the 30-minute (M30) timeframe. According to Anderson, LINK has successfully broken above the 200-day moving average (marked in red on the chart), a significant technical milestone that often signals a shift in market sentiment. At the time of his post, LINK was trading around $15.560 and was actively forming an ascending channel,  a bullish price pattern characterized by consistently higher lows and higher highs. Related Reading: Chainlink Holds Strong At $15.29 Support – Is A New Breakout Imminent? Anderson noted that the current price structure reflects sustained buying interest, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) sitting comfortably at 64.23 just below overbought territory, indicating healthy momentum. Additionally, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator is in positive territory, further reinforcing the strength of the ongoing uptrend. However, he cautioned traders to remain vigilant as the price approaches the upper boundary of the ascending channel. This zone could act as a short-term resistance level, triggering a pullback or consolidation phase before further upside. Overall, the outlook for Chainlink on the M30 chart remains bullish. LINK Flips Bearish Structure On Daily Timeframe A crypto analyst @Whales_Crypto_Trading shared a bullish outlook on LINK, noting that the asset is currently breaking out of a descending channel on the daily timeframe. This long-standing pattern had previously kept LINK locked in a downward trajectory, but the recent price action suggests that momentum is shifting in favor of the bulls. A breakout from this structure is typically seen as a strong technical signal, indicating the potential for a significant trend reversal. Related Reading: Chainlink Flashes Daily Buy Signal – Breakout Next? According to the analyst, a complete descending channel pattern suggests that Chainlink is no longer confined in a bearish trend and may now be positioned for a substantial upside move. With market sentiment showing early signs of turning positive, the breakout could mark the beginning of a new bullish phase for LINK, supported by improved technical indicators and increasing volume. He concluded by stating that this breakout sets the stage for a massive rally, with $28 identified as the next major target. Reaching this level would represent a strong recovery and a clear signal that bulls have regained control.  Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com

According to GemXBT on an X post, the Solana chart shows a promising recovery after a recent downtrend, with the price bouncing off a key support level around $168. This price action suggests that SOL has found a solid foundation at this support zone. Support levels like this are important in technical analysis, as they indicate areas where buying interest may be strong enough to halt a decline. A sustained bounce from this level could attract more buyers, fueling further upward momentum and setting the groundwork for a stronger rally in the coming days.  Solana Rebound Sparks Hope For A Renewed Rally GemXBT has observed that SOL is currently trading above the 5-day and 10-day moving averages, which is a key indicator of bullish price action. When an asset’s price remains above these moving averages, it suggests that the market sentiment is positive and that the asset could continue to trend upward.  Related Reading: Solana Price Rally Targets $360—But This Support Must Hold Additionally, a bullish crossover in the MACD has been noted, which further confirms upward momentum. The MACD crossover occurs when the MACD line crosses above the signal line. This is a widely recognized technical signal that suggests the market may continue to favor the bulls, supporting the case for more gains in SOL’s price. At the same time, the RSI is approaching neutral levels, suggesting that there is still room for movement in either direction and that the indicator is not yet in overbought or oversold territory. This neutral reading gives Solana the chance to build on its renewed bullish momentum without facing immediate resistance from overbought conditions. However, the key resistance for SOL is near the $180 level, which could present a hurdle for the ongoing rally. This price point will likely be an area where sellers may re-enter the market, potentially halting or slowing down the upward performance. A Broadening Wedge On The SOL’s 4-Hour Chart Whales_Crypto_Trading recently shared an insightful analysis on X, noting that Solana is approaching a key breakout point from a broadening wedge formation on the 4-hour chart. This chart pattern, characterized by fluctuating highs and lows, suggests that the market is experiencing increased volatility and that a decisive price movement is imminent.  Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Over $150 — More Upside on The Horizon? The broadening wedge typically precedes a breakout, and Whales_Crypto_Trading highlights that the likelihood of an upward breakout is growing. If the price breaks above the upper boundary of the wedge, it could signal the start of a strong rally. When this happens, the analyst suggests that it might trigger a significant uptrend, pushing the price toward key resistance levels at $215, $228, $243, and $265. These levels represent crucial targets where the price may face challenges, but a successful breach of these zones would pave the way for further upward movement.

In a recent post on X, market analyst Andrew Griffiths pointed out that XRP has faced notable rejection at two consecutive resistance levels, first near $2.65, followed by another rejection at $2.57. The inability to hold above $2.57 on the second attempt is particularly telling, as it indicates that sellers may be stepping in earlier, defending lower levels. This pattern raises the risk of a deeper retracement if bullish support doesn’t re-enter the market soon. Volume And Price Divergence At Resistance To provide further context on his recent analysis of XRP, Andrew Griffiths highlighted a critical divergence in volume between recent highs, which might signal a potential weakening in bullish momentum. As XRP reached higher price levels over the past few days, the accompanying trading volume has been progressively decreasing, suggesting that the market’s enthusiasm for higher price levels is fading. This volume-price divergence raises concerns that the upward momentum may not be sustainable without additional support. Related Reading: XRP Price Rejected At Resistance: Why $2.69 Holds The Key Griffiths highlighted the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which still suggests there could be potential for further upward movement in XRP’s price. The RSI remains in a favorable zone, indicating that the market may continue to see bullish pressure, especially if it can break certain resistance levels.  However, Griffiths also expressed caution, acknowledging that while the RSI suggests upside potential, the weakening volume makes him reluctant to commit fully to the bullish side just yet. He emphasized the need for confirmation, either through stronger buying volume or a more sustained price move. If XRP fails to sustain its current price levels, Griffiths suggested that a pullback to earlier trend zones is likely, where price could find support and possibly consolidate. Such a move would not necessarily spell the end of the bullish trend but rather signal an opportunity for a better entry point at lower levels. XRP Rejection Signals Growing Uncertainty Among Traders Andrew Griffiths concluded his analysis by highlighting that uncertainty presently reigns in the market, making it difficult to predict the immediate direction of XRP’s price action. While the cryptocurrency has experienced some bullish movement, the mixed signals from volume divergence and resistance rejections have created a situation where neither the bulls nor the bears appear to have full control.  Related Reading: XRP Sees Renewed Trader Activity as Market Absorbs Selling Pressure In terms of key levels, Griffiths identified $2.37 as a critical short-term support level that could provide some stability if prices start to retrace. This level has previously served as an important point of support during earlier pullbacks. Should the price hold above this support zone, there’s still potential for a consolidation phase or a continuation of the upward trend if buying pressure picks up again. However, if XRP fails to defend this key level, it could signal downside risk, with a move toward the next support zones. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP analyst Egrag Crypto, who is well-known for offering bullish predictions about the altcoin, has now drawn the crypto community’s attention to another altcoin, XDC. The analyst predicts this crypto token could also witness a remarkable surge and enjoy up to a 3,350% gain as bullish metrics emerge.  XDC To Rally To $2 As Indicators Turn Bullish In an X post, Egrag Crypto stated that XDC will rally to $1 and then easily surge to $2. This came as he remarked that the altcoin’s chart looks “amazing.” First, the XRP analyst noted that the RGB (Red-Green-Blue) indicators perfectly align with the XDC token. Based on this, he asserted that the next move for the altcoin could be a 10x pump. Related Reading: Fartcoin Reaches Critical Make-Or-Break Level: Analyst Reveals What Could Happen From $0.77  This XDC price surge is expected to target the Fibonacci levels between 1.414 and 1.618, rallying to between $0.50 and $0.80. The XRP analyst remarked that this is still below the previous cycle’s blow-off top, when the token soared by 3,350%. He expects XDC to replicate this explosive move, potentially surging to the $2 target.  The XRP analyst alluded to the Stochastic Relative Strength Index (SRSI) as another bullish indicator. He revealed that the SRSI is waving bullish signals. The analyst admitted that there is still a long road for XDC to reach and sustain RSI levels above 80, but claimed that the momentum is definitely on the bulls’ side. In line with this, Egrag Crypto asserted that big moves could just be around for the altcoin.  The Bearish Angle For The Altcoin The XRP analyst also provided a bearish angle for the XDC price. He revealed that the 21 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is on the verge of crossing below the 33 Moving Average. If that happens, the analyst warned that it could turn super bearish.  Related Reading: Altcoin Season In Danger If Bitcoin Dominance Closes April Above This Level However, he added that this crossover will most likely be avoided and that there could be a blow-off top before the inevitable retracement. The analyst also urged market participants to be attentive as the sharp move higher would come unexpectedly before a big crash to the downside.  From a fundamental perspective, XDC’s outlook also looks bullish. The XDC network just officially joined the MiCA alliance, which is a major step forward in aligning blockchain innovation with regulatory clarity in Europe. The team stated that the network is deeply committed to compliance, transparency, and building long-term trust. Like Ripple’s offering using XRP for cross-border payments, XDC is a layer-1 that offers real-world applications like trade finance, cross-border payments, and RWA tokenization. At the time of writing, the XDC price is trading at around $0.07, up over 1% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

The XRP price is at a make-or-break moment as it struggles to hold a critical technical level as it navigates broader market uncertainty. In a recent report, a crypto analyst issued a stark warning for XRP holders, highlighting that the cryptocurrency risks crashing to $1.9 if it fails to clear a key price level. XRP Price Risks Falling To $1.9 According to an analysis presented by crypto analyst ’Dom’ on X (formerly Twitter), the XRP price could be gearing up for a major crash soon. The analyst revealed that the cryptocurrency has recently tested the apex of a 100-day descending trendline—a zone that also coincided with the election Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and the monthly rolling VWAP.  Related Reading: XRP Price To $1.5 Or $4? The Bull And Bear Case Revealed This convergence of technical indicators has become a critical battle station between bulls and bears. While buyers attempt to halt any further declines and push the XRP price higher, the rejection at this apex signals weakness and raises the risk of a downside move.  The analyst’s chart shows that XRP’s price is struggling to stay above a mid-range support level, visually marked by a horizontal grey box between $2.05 and $2.1. Failure to clear this area could trigger a significant decline toward $1.9, which Dom has identified as the next key support area. On the flip side, a break above $2.12, where multiple VWAPs are stacked, would signal an immediate bullish reversal and potentially mark the beginning of a new upward trend. Dom has also stressed the urgency of XRP regaining the $2.12 level. If bulls fail to do so, the cryptocurrency’s structure remains vulnerable and could correct downwards at any moment.  As the XRP price currently sits at $2.3, the analyst has pinpointed a key upside target on his chart. If XRP were to break above its current price, the analyst expects it to move back up to $2.47 — a level that would act as a longer-term dynamic resistance.     XRP Must Break $2.3 To Reach $3 In a recent X post, a crypto analyst known as ‘Lord Crypto’ highlighted that XRP is showing signs of a potential breakout as it emerges from oversold territory with multiple bullish catalysts approaching. After weeks of consolidation near the $2.00 support zone, XRP is now testing the resistance level at $2.30. Related Reading: XRP Price To Break Out Of Consolidation: The Next Moonshot That Will Lead To $3 Technical indicators and market trends appear to be favoring bulls. The Stochastic Relative Strength Index (RSI) shown on the price chart has reversed upward from oversold zones, indicating possible renewed buying pressure.  The analyst has also pointed to the possibility of an XRP ETF approval as a bullish catalyst. Additionally, he highlighted Ripple’s victory over the US SEC, which brings an end to the lawsuit that has lasted over four years.  Notably, a close and sustained trading above the $2.30 level could allow XRP to target higher resistance levels around $2.52 and $2.91. Once this happens, the XRP price could even reclaim past highs above $3. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Uniswap (UNI) is showing signs of a powerful resurgence as it firmly holds the $4.60 support level, a critical zone that could ignite the next major rally. After weathering recent market turbulence, UNI’s price action is now flashing bullish signals, suggesting that the asset may be gearing up for a significant upward move. The recent bounce from support, coupled with improving momentum indicators, suggests that bulls are quietly reclaiming territory. However, confirmation is still needed to solidify the reversal narrative. Critical resistance zones lie ahead, and how UNI reacts around these levels will determine whether this move has real staying power or fades as another false start. The Bullish Reversal Setup: Why UNI’s Price Action Matters Now UNI’s recent price behavior can be traced to a classic bullish reversal setup forming on the daily chart. Uniswap has broken out of a falling wedge pattern, a formation typically seen as a precursor to trend reversals. This breakout came after a decisive retest of the $4.6 level. Related Reading: Uniswap (UNI) In Trouble? Price Crash Below $6.7 Signals Bigger Problems What makes this setup particularly compelling is the combination of the falling wedge breakout and UNI’s successful rebound from $4.6. This confluence of bullish signals implies that the bears may be losing grip, while bulls are regaining confidence. If the token continues to build on this momentum, it could pave the way for a larger upward move, confirming the trend reversal. Technical indicators are starting to confirm the bullish narrative. One of the key signals comes from the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which has rebounded from oversold territory and is now pushing upward, reflecting renewed buying interest and growing momentum. A continued rise in RSI above the midline (50) would further support the case for a trend reversal. Additionally, trading volume is beginning to show signs of recovery, with an increase of over 26%. The rising volume during this rebound suggests that the move is supported by genuine market participation. If volume continues to build alongside upward price movement, it could fuel Uniswap to challenge and break through key resistance levels in the coming sessions. Where Could UNI Go Next? With Uniswap now staging a notable recovery and forming a reversal pattern, traders are now turning their attention to the breakout scenario and where it could lead. After retesting the $4.6 support level and bouncing above the falling wedge with renewed strength, UNI appears to be building upward momentum. If the price sustains its bullishness, it might pave the way for a swift move higher. Related Reading: UNI Price Recovery Gains Traction – Will It Smash Through Resistance? From a technical standpoint, the next upside targets lie around $5.5 and $6.7, where previous breakdowns occurred and volume peaks exist. A sustained move beyond those levels could even open the door for a test of the $8.7 mark in the medium term. Overall, if volume supports the push, it increases the potential to set off a larger rally. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

In an update on X, crypto analyst Jascrypto pointed out that Polkadot (DOT) is currently forming a textbook bullish falling wedge pattern on the daily chart. This technical setup is often associated with a potential trend reversal, signaling the end of a downtrend and the beginning of a bullish breakout. As DOT continues to consolidate within the narrowing bounds of the wedge, market participants are starting to take notice. The structure suggests that bearish momentum may be weakening, allowing buyers to step in. With volume expected to increase upon a breakout, this pattern could mark a pivotal shift for DOT and spark a strong upside move, potentially starting a new bullish phase. Why The Polkadot Falling Wedge Is Bullish Crypto analyst Jascrypto recently highlighted that Polkadot has completed a breakout from a multi-month falling wedge pattern. Falling wedges are typically viewed as reversal patterns, and DOT’s successful breakout suggests that downward pressure may be easing after months of consolidation. This structural shift reflects growing optimism and signals that the asset could be preparing for a larger upward trend. Related Reading: Polkadot Price Caught In A 5-Year Channel – Can It Finally Break Free? Jascrypto pointed out that DOT is currently testing the 100-day and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), key technical levels that often act as strong resistance in bearish conditions. He emphasized that a decisive daily close above these EMAs would validate the breakout and signal a shift in market sentiment. According to Jascrypto, if Polkadot maintains momentum and closes above these critical levels, it may pave the way for a rally toward the $5.5 to $6.0 range in the near term. This move would mark a significant recovery phase for DOT, attracting fresh bullish interest from investors. In an alternative scenario, Jascrypto noted that the worst-case outcome might see Polkadot dipping as low as $3.120 on higher timeframes. However, he added that such a move could set the stage for a much stronger rebound, propelling the price above the $7 mark once momentum returns. Momentum Indicators Lean Bullish – Is DOT Ready To Run? Momentum indicators are beginning to align in favor of the bulls, offering promising signals that Polkadot may be gearing up for a meaningful move higher. The 4-hour Relative Strength Index (RSI) has rebounded from oversold territory, hovering near the midpoint around 50. This shift indicates that bearish momentum is fading, and buyers may be gradually regaining control. Related Reading: Polkadot (DOT) Nears Critical Zone: A Reversal Could Trigger 180% Surge Adding to the optimistic trend, the 4-hour Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has shown a bullish crossover, where the MACD line crosses above the signal line. A move that often marks the beginning of a new uptrend or a pause in prior downside pressure. Combined, the RSI’s recovery and the MACD’s bullish signal suggest that DOT’s momentum is shifting favorably, setting the stage for a potential breakout continuation if price action remains strong.

According to a recent post on X by Shaco AI, Bitcoin (BTC) is showing a bit of “stage fright” as it hovers just below key short-term moving averages, signaling a potential loss of momentum. At the time of writing, BTC is trading at $94,383, beneath both the 25-hour Simple Moving Average (SMA) at $95,192 and the 50-hour SMA at $95,675. This positioning reflects a cautious stance among traders, with bulls unable to reclaim control and bears subtly tightening their grip. The dip below these moving averages paints a short-term bearish picture, as Shaco AI described it, “Mama Bear pulling Baby Bitcoin down.” This metaphor highlights the building pressure on Bitcoin as it attempts to break free from its current consolidation range. Without a convincing move above these SMAs, the market may remain hesitant, with the risk of further downside looming unless stronger bullish momentum emerges soon. RSI And MACD Paint A Cautious Picture In his effort to further support his analysis, Shaco AI pointed to momentum indicators that are beginning to flash cautionary signals. One of the key indicators, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), is currently resting at a rather subdued 38.78.  Related Reading: Analyst Identifies When Bitcoin Price Will Reach Cycle Top — Here’s The Timeline This level typically suggests that an asset may be nearing oversold territory, hinting that Bitcoin could be undervalued at the moment. However, instead of signaling a confident bounce, the RSI appears more hesitant, as if BTC is simply feeling “shy” at this bearish gathering, uncertain whether to retreat further or gather the courage to rebound.   Adding to the uncertainty, Shaco AI drew attention to the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), which currently stands at -432.37. While this negative reading implies that bearish momentum is present, the MACD’s behavior hasn’t been decisive. It’s more of a quiet murmur than a clear call, “whispering secrets,” as Shaco AI aptly described it, about a potential shift in trend.  He also noted an interesting detail for the crowd: trading volume has been notably muted. With current volume at 527.17304, falling short of the average 593.655497, it’s as if the market is tiptoeing, trying not to disturb the calm. This subdued activity suggests that traders may be sitting on their hands, waiting for a clearer signal before making any bold moves. Structural Levels For Bitcoin To Watch Analyzing Bitcoin’s current structural setup, Shaco noted that key support lies at $93,514.1, a potential safety net if bearish momentum intensifies. On the upside, resistance is firmly positioned around $96,593, acting as a critical barrier should BTC attempt an unexpected upward breakout. Related Reading: CMT-Verified Analyst Reveals When To Buy Bitcoin As Heikin Ashi Candle Turns Bearish In conclusion, Shaco AI advised traders to stay alert as Bitcoin teeters at a critical juncture. Whether it continues to drift downward or stages a bold rebound from its support levels remains to be seen.

Polygon’s price action over the past week has been characterized by a moderate pullback following what initially appeared to be a decisive breakout above the $0.20 level. This dip, rather than signaling weakness, may in fact represent a healthy retracement as the cryptocurrency prepares for a new upward move.  The price structure appears bullish on higher timeframes, especially after POL recently rebounded off the lower boundary of a long-term descending channel. According to a crypto analyst, Polygon could be on the verge of an explosive rally toward the $1 mark. Classic Bullish Divergence Points To Imminent Breakout According to technical analyst MasterAnanda on TradingView, the Polygon ecosystem token (POLUSDT) is currently flashing one of the strongest technical reversal signals in the form of a textbook bullish divergence on the 3-day chart. Price action hit a new low on April 7, 2025, but the Relative Strength Index (RSI) had already bottomed earlier in July 2024 and has since been forming higher lows. Related Reading: Polygon (MATIC) To Come back From The Dead As Ascending Triangle Appears As noted by the analyst, this mismatch between the price and the momentum indicator is a classic signal that the downtrend may be losing steam. The signal is reinforced by the recent increase in volume and the broader bullish recovery observed across the cryptocurrency market. Zooming in on the 3-day chart structure, POLUSDT experienced a notable rebound after reaching its low on April 7. The price climbed steadily to $0.267 by April 22 before encountering resistance. What followed were two successive bearish candlesticks that appeared to trace a measured pullback, likely a retest of the upper boundary of the descending channel. This movement is significant because retests of this nature often precede major breakouts. Keeping this in mind, the analyst predicted a successful bounce from the trendline support, which could start a sustained rally toward $1.  Polygon To $1: Window Of Opportunity Narrowing Analyst MasterAnanda noted that the current price action is merely a calm before a massive move. “The market is giving us one last chance to buy all we want before massive growth,” the analyst said, implying that a strong impulsive wave could be next. The RSI is currently in the mid-40s, and if the bullish setup plays out, a swift move to the 70+ zone could occur. Related Reading: Polygon Price Risks Plunge With 90 Million MATIC Tokens Selling At $0.5 In terms of a price target, the analyst predicted a full recovery above $1 with a specific target of $1.15. This would mark a full recovery for POL holders who have been holding throughout the downturn in 2025. This level corresponds to the 1.618 level on the Fib extension projected from the April 7 low. The Fibonacci extension levels plotted on the chart show other smaller price targets on the way to $1.15. Most notable are the $0.461 and $0.534 regions, representing the 0.5 and 0.618 extension levels, respectively, which could serve as interim consolidation zones. At the time of writing, Polygon is trading at $0.2420. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Crypto analyst Cryptokijker has revealed that the Dogecoin price is poised for a breakout amid massive whales’ accumulation. The analyst also revealed the price targets that DOGE could reach following this breakout.  Dogecoin Price Poised For Breakout Above $0.17 In a TradingView post, Cryptokijker predicted that the Dogecoin price is poised for a breakout above $0.1790. The analyst revealed that the targets on this potential breakout are $0.1840 and $0.1920. He noted that the price at this level is showing a neutral-bullish structure after the recent breakout above the Previous Day Low (PDL).  Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Says Dogecoin Is Repeating History – Here’s What Happened The analyst also highlighted a hidden bullish divergence spotted on the Relative Strength Index (RSI), indicating strength beneath the surface. This Dogecoin price prediction comes amid a massive accumulation of DOGE by whales. He noted that smart money has been accumulating heavily within the discount zone between $0.15 and $0.16, which supports this bullish bias.  The analyst observed that the break of structure on the chart signals the start of a markup phase. He further remarked that the volume profile supports the accumulation-to-expansion transition. Meanwhile, the strong support confirmed at the $0.1760 zone aligns with previous discount accumulation, and the momentum building above the PDL suggests that the Dogecoin price could sustain this bullish momentum.  Market participants will also be watching the psychological $0.2 level for the Dogecoin price on this potential breakout. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez revealed that DOGE could rally towards its all-time high (ATH) if it can secure a monthly close above $0.20. The analyst remarked that such a breakout would signal strong bullish momentum and potentially attract increased investor interest.  It is worth mentioning that crypto analyst Master Kenobi also recently predicted that the Dogecoin price could reach a new ATH by June. He stated that the foremost meme coin could hit as high as $0.9 on the rally to a new ATH.  Other Factors That Support A DOGE Breakout Crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade stated that a Dogecoin price breakout is expected soon, which will send the meme coin higher. This came as he noted that DOGE has been moving between different ranges, experiencing both false breakdowns and breakouts. The analyst added that the meme coin has now returned to its current range, setting the stage for a price breakout.  Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Eyes Next Critical Level At $0.18, Is A Break Above $0.25 Possible? In another X post, Trader Tardigrade revealed that the Dogecoin price is forming a diamond above the trendline at around $0.15. Based on this, he affirmed that things are going great for DOGE and urged market participants to wait for the next breakout.  At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at around $0.17, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

In a recent update on X, analyst GemXBT highlighted that Solana (SOL) is moving within a consolidation phase, with the price hovering near the $147 level. The pattern indicates that SOL is coiling up, potentially preparing for a significant move once a breakout occurs. This period of sideways trading isn’t without significance. Historically, such consolidation phases can act as a prelude to sharp breakouts or breakdowns. Traders are now closely watching for volume spikes or candlestick signals that could hint at the next major trend. Current Market Context: Why Solana Consolidation Matters GemXBT emphasized that key support lies below the current price, around the $146 level, which has acted as a crucial buffer, preventing further declines and helping to maintain short-term stability. On the upside, immediate resistance is forming near $150, a level that has previously halted bullish advances. This resistance zone is now being closely monitored, as a breakout above it could trigger a stronger upward push. Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Holding Strong Above $150 — Breakout Zone In Play GemXBT further elaborated on the technical indicators that support SOL’s current consolidation outlook. He noted that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) continues to hover in the neutral zone, reflecting the prevailing market indecision.  This midpoint reading indicates that neither bullish nor bearish momentum is dominant at the moment, which aligns with Solana’s sideways price movement. The lack of an overbought or oversold signal suggests that a breakout in either direction is still on the table, making the coming sessions particularly crucial for confirming the next trend. In addition, GemXBT highlighted that the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has recently formed a minor bearish crossover, which could be an early warning sign of building downward pressure. Although the signal isn’t strong enough to confirm a trend reversal yet, it does raise concerns, especially if the $147 support level fails to hold.  The Battle Between Bulls And Bears Based on GemXBT analysis, as Solana continues to consolidate between the $146 and $150 range, the market is at a crucial indecision point. After breaking out of the zone between $146 and $150, the next resistance to watch is the $164 level. If buyers are able to push the price past this barrier, it could pave the way for a rally toward the $211 level and beyond, marking a significant shift in momentum and market sentiment. Related Reading: Solana Price Enters Consolidation Trend Above $130 That Could End In A Breakout However, if bearish pressure intensifies and the $146 support gives way, it might trigger a sharper decline as sellers regain control. In that case, lower support areas such as $137 and $118 would come into play quickly.  With both Solana bulls and bears eyeing these pivotal levels, the next decisive move is likely to set the tone for SOL’s short-term trend.

The price of SUI has been on a relentless upward trajectory, defying traditional market warnings as its Relative Strength Index (RSI) enters overbought territory. Typically, an overbought RSI suggests an asset may be due for a pullback, yet SUI continues to surge.  With bullish momentum still strong, key factors such as rising demand, ecosystem developments, or broader market trends could be fueling this resilience. However,  as the RSI hovers in overextended zones, the critical question remains: Can SUI sustain its rally, or is a reversal on the horizon? RSI Hits Extreme Levels As SUI Climbs Higher In a recent post on X, analyst GemXBT highlighted that the SUI chart continues to show a strong bullish structure, marked by consistently higher highs and higher lows, a classic signal of upward momentum. According to the chart, key support zones are holding firm around $2.80 and $3.00, providing a solid base for the price to build upon. Related Reading: SUI Forms Inverse Head And Shoulders – Can Bulls Break Above $2.52? Also, resistance is near the $3.60 level, which could act as a critical barrier for the bulls to overcome. As long as the current structure remains intact and price respects these support zones, SUI’s upward trend may still have room to run, especially if it manages to break through the $3.60 resistance with strong volume. However, GemXBT also pointed out that the RSI is currently flashing overbought conditions, which typically signals that the asset may be nearing a short-term top. While the overall trend remains bullish, this indicator suggests that a potential pullback or period of consolidation could be on the horizon.  The analyst added that although buying pressure remains strong and momentum is clearly in favor of the bulls, traders should proceed with caution. Overbought signals often precede cooling phases, especially if volume begins to taper off or price struggles to break above resistance.  Watching The Pullback: Where Bulls Might Reload Analyst GemXBT identified the $3.00 and $2.80 levels as critical support areas to watch. These zones have acted as solid demand regions in the past and may once again serve as springboards if prices dip from current highs. A controlled pullback into these levels, especially if accompanied by decreasing volume, would suggest profit-taking rather than panic selling—a positive sign for bulls aiming to push higher.

Ascending Channel Suggests Move Toward $2.50 If buying pressure returns around these support zones and the price structure of higher highs and higher lows remains intact, SUI could be setting up for a renewed breakout. The next major hurdle remains near $3.60, and reclaiming that level would open the door for a broader upside run. Featured image from Medium, chart from Tradingview.com

Dogecoin has just made a noteworthy move on the charts, breaking out from a bullish formation that had traders watching closely for signs of a trend shift. After consolidating within a tightening range, the price pushed past a key resistance zone. This breakout is generating excitement across the market, with analysts pointing to the potential for further upside if buying pressure continues to build. However, with critical levels now in play, the spotlight turns to whether the bulls can sustain this momentum and defend the breakout zone. A strong follow-through could pave the way for DOGE to target higher resistance levels and kick off a broader uptrend. Make-Or-Break Moment For Dogecoin In a recent tweet on X, popular analyst Whales_Crypto_Trading highlighted that Dogecoin has successfully completed a classic cup and handle pattern, a formation often associated with bullish continuation. According to the post, DOGE has now approached a critical resistance zone, which previously acted as a barrier to upward momentum. Related Reading: Can Dogecoin Realistically Reach $3? Analyst Weighs In This area is crucial since a breakout above it could validate the pattern and trigger a fresh wave of buying interest, potentially propelling the price toward new short-term highs. As Dogecoin hovers around this pivotal level, speculations are whether DOGE has enough momentum to push through and confirm the breakout. He further noted that if the breakout holds and momentum builds, Dogecoin might be on track to target key price levels at $0.50, $0.73, and eventually the $1.00 milestone. These levels align with historical resistance zones where DOGE has faced selling pressure in the past. A sustained move toward these targets would reinforce the bullish pattern and mark a significant recovery from its recent consolidation phase.  Technicals Point North: Key Indicators Flash Green Looking at the technical indicators, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) are signaling positive momentum for Dogecoin, suggesting that the recent bullish breakout could have room to run. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Squeezes Into Triangle With Breakout Closing In The RSI has risen past the 50 mark and is currently near 63, indicating that Dogecoin is in the positive zone with increasing buying pressure and healthy upward momentum. This shift in market sentiment supports the likelihood of more gains.  Meanwhile, the MACD is also showing bullish signs, with the MACD line above the signal line and the histogram widening. The divergence between the MACD and signal line reinforces the potential for sustained buying pressure and further upside for Dogecoin. Both indicators are aligning, reinforcing the idea that Dogecoin’s breakout is not just a short-term spike but a signal for a sustained rally. With strong momentum from these indicators, the path looks clear for DOGE to challenge higher resistance levels, and a potential retest of $0.50, $0.73, or even $1.00 may be on the horizon.

PEPE is flexing its technical strength after successfully flipping the key 50 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) into support, a move that has caught the attention of bullish traders. Following a solid close above this crucial level, the meme coin is now showing signs of sustained momentum, suggesting that bulls may be gearing up for the next upward move.  The price action reflects renewed confidence in PEPE’s short-term structure, with buyers defending the breakout and positioning for further upside. As the broader market steadies, PEPE’s resilience could mark the beginning of a fresh rally. PEPE Breakout Potential Grows With Structure Intact In a recent update shared on X, UniChartz highlighted that PEPE has successfully closed above the 50-day EMA, following a decisive reclaim of a key resistance zone that previously served as solid support. This move is a notable technical development, as it signals growing bullish momentum and hints at a possible trend reversal taking shape. Related Reading: PEPE Price To Bounce 796% To New All-Time Highs In 2025? Here’s What The Chart Says The breakout above the 50 EMA is often viewed by traders as a shift in market sentiment, marking a transition from bearish pressure to potential upward continuation. With this zone now acting as support once again, PEPE appears to be regaining traction. If buyers continue to defend this level and volume increases, it could open the door for further upside in the near term. He also noted that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is on the rise and currently hovers around the 63 mark, reflecting growing buying momentum but not yet overbought. This positioning suggests that buyers are gaining control, with room for more growth before any major correction pressure sets in.  In conclusion, he emphasized that if PEPE continues to hold above the recently reclaimed zone and maintains its position above the 50-day EMA, it will trigger a sustained upward move toward previous highs. This stable footing would likely reinforce bullish confidence in the market. Bullish Continuation On The Horizon PEPE’s recent price action is sending strong signals that a bullish continuation may be taking shape. With the price holding firm above a key support zone and the 50 EMA acting as dynamic support, the meme coin’s future outlook seems promising. Momentum indicators like the RSI have risen, showing growing buyer interest without overextension.

A decisive break above this barrier may open the door for further gains, with the next key target lying around $0.00001313. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

After months of bullish momentum that pushed the Bitcoin price to an all-time high of over $109,000 earlier this year, analysts are now debating whether that surge marked the official market top. Strengthening this argument, a confluence of technical indicators suggests the market cycle may have already peaked—most notably, the behavior of the Market Value to Real Value (MVRV) Z-Score reinforces this view.  MVRV Z-Score Shows Bitcoin Price Has Topped A new technical analysis by crypto analyst Tony Severino, which combines MVRV Z-Score and monthly Relative Strength Index (RSI), is flashing warning signs that Bitcoin‘s market top may already be in.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Bullish Confirmation: What Needs To Happen For Next Leg Up To $130,000 Looking at the logarithmic price chart, Bitcoin’s MVRV Z-Score has broken below a long-standing uptrend support line. This pattern is significant, as the Z-Score has always respected the uptrend support lines during bull markets, with similar breaks only emerging after Bitcoin reaches an official market top. Notably, this isn’t the first time Bitcoin has displayed such a trend behavior. Similar support line breaks occurred before BTC’s market peaks during the 2017 and 2021 bull cycles. The bearish argument that Bitcoin may have already reached a price peak is further strengthened by the visual correlation between the Z-Score and Bitcoin’s monthly RSI, which is shown by a black line on the chart.  In past cycles, Bitcoin’s RSI fell below 70 twice, indicating fading momentum and weakening price action. Historically, such moves below the 70 level occur shortly after price tops, not before.  Even more compelling, the RSI-based Moving Average (MA), highlighted by the orange line on the chart, is now curling downwards. This subtle but strong signal has only appeared in past cycles after the market has already topped, serving as a confirmation rather than a prediction.  Taken together, these technical indicators and historical trends strongly suggest that Bitcoin’s $109,000 peak may have marked the top of this market cycle. In line with previous post-top bull market behavior, Bitcoin could now be on the verge of entering a prolonged bear market. This bearish outlook is reinforced by recent steep price corrections, reduced investor confidence, and a clear shift in market sentiment toward caution and uncertainty.  Bulls Attempt To Reverse Bitcoin Bearish Outlook In another of his most recent analyses of Bitcoin, Severino revealed that bulls appear to be pushing for a price recovery. The analyst acknowledged that his previously dominant bearish narrative of Bitcoin may soon see a significant shift if bulls can sustain momentum into April’s monthly close.  Related Reading: Is The Bitcoin Open Interest Too High Or Can The BTC Price Still Rally? According to the presented chart, Bitcoin is now testing a key area of interest while simultaneously showing early bullish signs of reversing the bearish crossover on the monthly long-term Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Adding to the intrigue, the possible formation of a Morning Star candlestick pattern reinforces the possibility of a bullish reversal for Bitcoin.  Notably, similar chart setups occurred in 2022 and mid-2023, both of which marked major turning points for Bitcoin’s long-term outlook. If the cryptocurrency manages to close April with a complete Morning Star pattern, it could force a reevaluation of bearish expectations. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Bitcoin (BTC) posted modest gains earlier today, trading above $87,000 for the first time since April 1. Crypto analysts now suggest that BTC may be on the verge of a sustained rally, as several key indicators are flashing bullish signals. Bitcoin Rally Ahead? These Indicators Say Yes According to a CryptoQuant Quicktake post published today, BTC is showing multiple short-term bullish signals, fuelling optimism that a breakout above $90,000 could be imminent. Related Reading: Bitcoin Undervalued? Analyst Breaks Down Bullish On-Chain Metrics In their analysis, CryptoQuant contributor EgyHash highlighted two key indicators that hint at bullish reversal for the apex cryptocurrency. First, the contributor outlined BTC’s Exchange Inflow metric. EgyHash noted that exchange inflows – the amount of BTC being deposited into exchanges – have dropped significantly in recent months. Since peaking at 120,000 in November 2024, the metric has seen a sharp decline, suggesting that holders are choosing not to move their BTC to exchanges, thereby potentially reducing sell pressure. The chart below shows a consistent drop in exchange inflows since November 2024, despite BTC’s price gains in December 2024 and January 2025. As of now, exchange inflows sit around 9,300. In addition, EgyHash pointed out that Bitcoin’s open interest has surged by $6 billion over the past two weeks. This rise has been accompanied by a positive shift in funding rates, signalling a bullish market outlook. To explain, a rise in open interest shows that more money is flowing into BTC futures or perpetual contracts, indicating increased trader participation and confidence. Similarly, positive funding rates suggest that long positions – bets on BTC price going up – are dominant, and traders are willing to pay a premium to hold these positions. That said, there is some caution to be considered here. If the BTC derivatives market becomes too leveraged, then it may increase the risk of a sharp price correction due to mass liquidations.  BTC Breaks Multi-Month Downtrend In a separate X post, crypto analyst Rekt Capital brought attention to BTC breaking out of a falling wedge pattern on the daily chart. Typically, a breakout from the falling wedge pattern indicates a bullish reversal, hinting that the asset’s price may rise after a period of downward consolidation. Related Reading: Bitcoin Buy Signal Confirmed? Analysts Highlight Key Reversal Zone In Play Simultaneously, BTC’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is approaching the 60 level, indicating renewed buying strength. That said, if RSI nears 60 but fails to push higher, it could also point to weakening momentum and a potential bull trap. Further, BTC’s futures sentiment index is showing signs of warning as the metric has been on a prolonged decline since February 2025. At press time, BTC trades at $87,386, up 3.4% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, charts from CryptoQuant, X, and TradingView.com

XRP recent surge appears to be entering a cooling phase as the price edges lower to the $1.97 level, an area acting as a pivotal support. After a strong upward move fueled by improved market sentiment, the current pullback signals a potential pause rather than a full reversal.  The $1.97 zone now stands as a critical support level, previously acting as resistance during XRP’s recent climb. If buyers step in with strength and volume begins to rise, this dip could prove to be a strategic entry point for those eyeing the next breakout. Key Support Holds At $1.97 – Is XRP Building A Base? XRP’s pullback to the $1.97 level has brought attention to the critical support zone that may serve as a foundation for the next leg up. Despite broader market fluctuations, price action has shown resilience around this area, with buyers stepping in to defend the level. Historically, $1.97 has acted as a pivotal point during previous rallies and corrections, increasing its significance as a potential accumulation zone. Related Reading: XRP Price Pulls Back: Healthy Correction or Start of a Fresh Downtrend? The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator is beginning to flash early signs of a potential bullish reversal for XRP. After the recent dip to $1.97, the MACD line is showing signs of converging toward the signal line, hinting that bearish momentum may be losing steam. This subtle shift often precedes a reversal and suggests that buyers are gradually regaining control. Should the MACD complete a bullish crossover, where the MACD line crosses above the signal line, it will reinforce the argument for a rebound. When paired with XRP’s position above key support, such a signal could confirm that market sentiment is tilting in favor of the bulls. A strengthening MACD histogram, reflecting diminishing downside pressure, would further validate this shift and add weight to the case for an upward move in the coming sessions. Bulls On Standby: What Needs To Happen For A Breakout Several key conditions must be met before momentum shifts decisively in the bulls’ favor as XRP’s price action nears the $1.97 support zone. First, XRP needs to firmly establish $1.97 as a solid base, with multiple successful defenses of this level reinforcing buyer confidence. A rebound from this zone would signal underlying strength and provide the first step toward an upside breakout. Related Reading: XRP Must Break Above $3 To Invalidate Bearish Pattern And Flip Bullish – Analyst Secondly, volume needs to step in. A breakout without a noticeable increase in trading volume risks being a false move. Sustained buying pressure would confirm that market participants are positioned for a trend reversal. Additionally, a decisive break above nearby resistance levels such as $2.25 or higher would invalidate the current consolidation phase and open the door for further gains. Lastly, indicators like the RSI and MACD must align with the bullish narrative. A rising RSI, without entering overbought territory, and a bullish MACD crossover would solidify the technical foundation for an upward move. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com
