Recent market data has shown that Bitcoin has been trading at an extended discount on Coinbase. Over the past several months, this negative premium, where BTC prices on Coinbase sit below the international average level, has remained consistent. Such prolonged discounts have historically coincided with periods of market uncertainty or late-stage corrections. How Coinbase Premium Remains Negative For Months Bitcoin has been trading at a persistent discount on Coinbase for the past 3 months. A full-time crypto trader and investor, Daan Crypto Trades, has pointed out on X that this typically reflects large ETF outflows and sustained selling pressure from the US-based investors, which has put pressure on a discount to appear.  Related Reading: Oct. 10 Started The Bitcoin Bear Market, On-Chain Data Shows These conditions are not unusual and have appeared nearly every market downturn or larger range. Thus, this broader market recovery needs the support of ETF inflows and renewed bidding from the US investors to surge higher.  For this reason, monitoring the Coinbase premium and discount is important to know when the price flips around. A stronger directional trend combined with steep discounts or premiums often reinforces the prevailing market move. A Relief Rally Could Buy The Market Time Until October Bitcoin has now broken below its April 2025 low, placing the market at an important inflection point. The CEO and founder of ITC_Crypto, Benjamin Cowen, noted that if the price fails to bounce soon, this could turn into a difficult midterm year. However, if the price can bounce back, it would likely provide the market several months of relief, pushing price action to October and potentially aligning with a more durable bottoming process. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Lack Of New Capital Leaves It Vulnerable To Continued Selling Pressure According to Benjamin, the bearish narrative has been dominant for an extended period, which increases the probability of a countertrend rally that could temporarily restore confidence among bulls. Meanwhile, Benjamin has cautioned against attempting to trade such moves. Furthermore, countertrend rallies often occur unexpectedly, not when market participants are actively anticipating them. A sweep of prior lows would offer short-term relief, even during the bull market. In 2014, 2018, and 2022, when BTC broke below the 100-week Simple Moving Average (SMA), the price moved straight down to the 200-week SMA before any meaningful relief occurred. From a broader perspective, Benjamin emphasized that the optimal time to sell BTC was late last year, not during panic-driven sell-offs in a midterm year. His focus remains on the larger cycle, suggesting that late Q3 to early Q4 will be a more favorable window to move real money back into the market. Until then, it is just traders trying to make money during difficult times, attempting to trade the support and resistance levels. Featured image from Pngtree, chart from Tradingview.com

Solana has pulled back into a key demand zone, a level that could determine whether its strong trend continues or falters. How price reacts here will be crucial, as a hold may signal a trend reload, while a breakdown could push SOL into broader market chop. Solana Returns To A Critical Weekly Demand Zone Giving an update on the weekly timeframe, Cyril-DeFi explained that Solana has been one of the standout performers this cycle. Still, price has now returned to a critical demand zone that could determine its next major move. According to Cyril, this area has historically acted as a pivot point where momentum either re-ignites or fades. Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Keeps $100 Alive, Recovery Push Faces First Test This is the type of zone where strong trends tend to reload if buyers successfully defend it. However, a failure to hold would suggest that the prior strength is losing traction, increasing the risk that the trend structure begins to deteriorate. From Cyril’s perspective, a firm hold at current levels would position Solana to lead the next altcoin impulse, reinforcing its relative strength against the broader market. On the other hand, losing this demand zone would likely see SOL slip into extended consolidation, moving in line with the wider market chop rather than outperforming it. Cyril-DeFi concluded by stressing that he is closely observing how the price behaves around this area instead of trying to predict outcomes in advance.  The Only High-Conviction Long Setup On The Table According to a recent Solana post shared by Ardi, only one long setup stands out as technically sound under current conditions. With the market still under pressure, waiting for confirmation seems safer than attempting to anticipate a bottom, as premature entries tend to get punished in weak structures. Related Reading: Solana Pauses After 20% Drop — This Key Level Could Decide What’s Next Ardi highlighted the $119 level as a key pivot for Solana. A successful reclaim of this zone, ideally through a spring or brief fakeout below resistance, could signal that demand is returning. If that occurs, price could surge higher toward the top of the range on a macro lower high rally rather than a full bullish reversal. From a risk-to-reward standpoint, this reclaim scenario remains the most attractive option available. It provides a clear technical trigger, defined invalidation, and a logical upside target, allowing traders to participate without overexposing themselves in an uncertain environment. He also outlined an alternative strategy involving the 200-week simple moving average around the $100 mark, an area that previously acted as macro support in April 2025. Still, Ardi cautioned that in a broader downtrend, odds are often against traders until a major level is reclaimed, making a decisive move back above $119 crucial before confidence can truly return.

For the majority of December, Bitcoin maintained a stable price range between $85,000 – $90,000 following the initial heavy corrections seen in Q4 2025. Amid the cheers of the new year, the flagship cryptocurrency has once again retested the proven price resistance around $90,500, but the market still bears a sense of uncertainty. Related Reading: XRP Faces Strong Social Discontent—Is A 50% Bullish Reversal Just Around The Corner? Bitcoin Coinbase Premium To Rebound?  In an X post on January 2, renowned analyst Burak Kesmeci shares an insightful analysis of the Bitcoin market following the asset’s positive start to 2026. Notably, the premier cryptocurrency has gained by almost 4% since the new year commenced two days ago. Amid the mild market euphoria, Kesmeci highlights a simultaneous rise in Coinbase premiums across the Bitcoin and Ethereum market suggesting the recent price gains are significantly influenced by US investors.  For context, the Coinbase premium assesses how much more or less US investors are paying for an asset. It is a strong market indicator as US investors’ liquidity tends to heavily influence the global market. Despite the latest price gains, Kesmeci notes that Coinbase premiums for BTC and ETH still remain negative, suggesting the majority of US investors still remain cautious. Related Reading: Bitcoin Dominance Grows As Altcoins Post Another Losing Year: Analyst Bitcoin Short-Term And Long-Term Triggers  In predicting future price movements, Burak Kesmeci has also outlined some potential developments investors should watch out for. Using the simple moving average indicator, the market expert has identified certain price levels of importance to Bitcoin’s price trajectory. For a bullish trend to kick off in the short-term, Kesmeci explains that Bitcoin must maintain its current 50-day simple moving average (SMA50) above the present level at $89,415 for at least the next two days. Notably, a potential loss of this price level would suggest the present consolidation continues. Meanwhile, the seasoned analyst also expects a positive long-term trend to only develop when Bitcoin crosses above $101,000, which represents an intersection between the SMA365 and SMA111. This outlook underscores $101,000 as a major psychological and structural resistance, with a decisive break above it likely to restore Bitcoin’s bullish market structure after the extended correction observed in Q4 2025. As of the time of writing, Bitcoin trades at $89,520 following a 0.85% gain in the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, daily trading volume is up by 11471%, representing buoyant market activity. Notably, Bitcoin’s market cap has climbed to $1.79 trillion, allowing the maiden cryptocurrency account for 58.6% of the total crypto market cap.  Featured image from Pexels, chart from Tradingview

Market analysts are closely watching the XRP price as recent movements test key support levels. A new technical analysis has highlighted a critical price zone that is currently helping contain further downside pressure on XRP. Over the past few months, the cryptocurrency has struggled to reclaim its previous highs, recently crashing below the $2 psychological level amid increased volatility and market uncertainty.  XRP Key Support Contains Downside Risks Crypto analyst Skipper shared a new technical update on XRP this week, highlighting current market dynamics and a critical support level that could help prevent further downturns. The analyst noted that XRP recently broke below $1.93, signaling heightened selling pressure and ongoing market repositioning. Related Reading: XRP Mirrors 2016 Trend That Led To 69% Crash Before 110,000% Rally Notably, XRP’s decline below $1.93 comes amid broader market weakness, as the cryptocurrency has struggled to hold key levels. Spot market data show the cryptocurrency is currently trading at $1.85, reflecting a significant drop of about 2.7% in the last 24 hours and more than 7.8% over the past seven days.  XRP’s choppy price action has also kept it pinned below many resistance zones. However, Skipper reveals that sustained trading below $1.88 keeps the cryptocurrency’s downside pressure intact in the near term. The analyst also notes that the next meaningful area where buyers may attempt to stabilize price sits around $1.85.  Despite ongoing Spot ETF inflows since its launch in November, Skipper noted that XRP’s short-term price action appears more driven by technical positioning than fundamental developments. He also highlighted that XRP’s market supply has contracted significantly, dropping by 45% from approximately 3.9 billion tokens at the beginning of 2025 to about 1.6 billion tokens by December. This reduction in supply could influence XRP’s price dynamics and overall market scarcity.  XRP Faces Continued Downtrend Amid Market Weakness In a subsequent post, Skipper reported that the XRP price fell 5% as the crypto market experienced fresh selling pressure with major altcoins extending recent declines. The analyst stated that the token had dipped to lows of around $1.81, reflecting growing investor risk aversion. Moreover, despite being one of the top-performing assets earlier in the year, XRP now risks slipping further. Related Reading: XRP Price On The Verge Of Another Crash, But There’s Still Hope According to Skipper, XRP has been in a steady downtrend since July 2025, with each price bounce weaker than the previous one. He emphasized that bulls must reverse this downtrend to restore a positive outlook, which would require XRP to rise above the $2.27 high from the last weak bounce in late November.  The analyst also noted that in past cycles, when XRP breaks below the 50-week Simple Moving Average (SMA) and stays there for roughly 50 to 84 days, a strong rally typically follows. He disclosed that the price has now spent approximately 70 days below its 50-week SMA, placing it within the same historical window. Featured image from Pxfuel, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP’s weekly chart has entered a technical zone that has repeatedly acted as a turning point in recent years. A recent analysis shared on the social media platform X highlights a recurring relationship between XRP’s price behavior and its 50-week simple moving average, a long-term trend indicator closely watched by traders.  Instead of focusing on XRP’s short-term volatility, which has been bearish, the analysis zeroes in on how extended periods below this moving average have coincided with the end of downside phases and the beginning of rally expansions. The 50-Week SMA And Why It Matters For XRP Cycles Technical analysis of XRP’s price action on the weekly candlestick chart, which was posted on the social media platform X by Steph, reveals a repeating cycle around the 50-week simple moving average (SMA).  Related Reading: Here’s What To Expect With The XRP Price Trading Under $2 This analysis is interesting because the 50-week simple moving average functions as a structural divider between bearish compression and bullish continuation on higher timeframes. In XRP’s case, previous cycles show that brief dips below this level have not been as significant as sustained stretches beneath it.  The XRP price chart below tracks how long XRP stayed below the 50-week SMA before a change in momentum. In the first instance in 2017, XRP spent roughly 10 weekly candles, equivalent to about 70 days, under the moving average before staging a sharp upside move.  A similar pattern appeared in the 2021 cycle, where the duration was shorter, with 49 days, but still acted as an inflection point on the weekly chart. However, the most aggressive move highlighted on the chart came in the 2024 period, where XRP traded below the 50-week SMA for about 84 days before posting a much larger rebound of about +850%. XRP Sitting Inside The Same Window Once Again According to the analysis, XRP is currently approaching about seventy days below the 50-week SMA, placing it squarely within the same historical window observed in prior cycles. Particularly, Steph noted that XRP has now spent roughly 70 days below the 50-week SMA again, and this places an outlook on what to look for in the next price action. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Predicts How Low The XRP Price Will Go Before Bouncing Resulting price action in the past has seen XRP rallying anywhere from 70% in 2021 to 850% in 2024. If XRP resolves to the upside again from the current structure, history suggests the initial signal would be a decisive weekly reclaim of the 50-week SMA, followed by continuation rather than an immediate rejection.

Dogecoin is once again under pressure as bears tighten their hold, keeping the price pinned below key resistance levels. Despite the ongoing consolidation, one crucial support zone is beginning to show signs of strength, hinting that a potential reversal could be on the horizon if buyers step in at the right moment. Momentum Hinges On RSI and BTC Dominance Levels Umair Crypto, in his latest update on Dogecoin, noted that the meme coin is currently consolidating just beneath the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), forming what appears to be a clear bearish setup. According to Umair, the structure suggests that the price could soon face rejection from this critical moving average, a move that may trigger a decline toward the $0.15 region, or potentially even lower if selling pressure intensifies. Related Reading: Dogecoin Awaits Risk-On Ignition As 2021 Pattern Repeats Despite the bearish tone, Umair highlighted that the $0.15 zone remains a crucial area of interest for buyers. He explained that this region could act as a strong bounce zone if the expected rejection occurs, offering the bulls a chance to defend the key support and potentially ignite a recovery from oversold conditions. On a more optimistic note, Umair pointed out that a recovery above the daily RSI trendline could change the short-term outlook for DOGE and fuel a move above the 200-day SMA, opening the door for renewed bullish momentum. However, Umair maintained a cautious stance for now until there’s a confirmed decline in Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) below 59%. This shift would likely mark the beginning of a more sustainable upward phase, including Dogecoin. Dogecoin Regains Stability After Recent Correction In a more recent market update, BitGuru highlighted that Dogecoin is starting to display early signs of a potential recovery following its recent correction phase. After facing sustained downward pressure, the popular meme coin seems to be regaining some stability as its price action begins to level out. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Eyes Major Breakout, Is A Rally To $0.7 All-Time Highs Possible? BitGuru pointed out that DOGE has managed to hold firmly near a key support level despite recent volatility. This steady price action near the base suggests that buyers are gradually stepping back in, showing confidence in the asset’s long-term potential. The chart structure is beginning to curve upward, which often precedes a breakout or a notable shift in market sentiment He further explained that if this early momentum continues to develop, Dogecoin could be preparing for a breakout toward the $0.22–$0.25 range. A successful move in that direction would mark a meaningful recovery from its previous decline and could spark renewed interest from traders. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP is holding firm above the $2.38 support level after a recent pullback, suggesting that bulls may still have control. As buying pressure builds, traders are watching closely for a potential breakout that could reignite bullish momentum in the coming sessions. Early Strength Fades After Hitting $2.52 Umair Crypto, in his latest market update, noted that XRP displayed initial strength after rebounding cleanly from the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). The price managed to climb to around $2.52 with a solid close on the 4-hour chart, signaling renewed buyer interest and a potential shift in short-term momentum. Related Reading: XRP Price Coils Below Resistance — Bulls Prepare For Possible Upside Explosion However, that early optimism was short-lived as XRP’s upward push lost steam before even reaching the 100-day SMA. The failure to extend higher has started to reveal some underlying weakness in the chart, with bulls struggling to sustain momentum at higher levels. Umair emphasized that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) trendline now plays a crucial role in determining the next direction. A confirmed breakdown below this RSI trendline could lead to another lower low, effectively continuing the current local downtrend and reinforcing bearish sentiment in the market. For now, the situation remains uncertain. XRP must hold firmly above the $2.38 support level and maintain strength along the RSI trendline. However, a failure to do so could expose XRP to deeper downside risks in the short term. Momentum Or Pause? The Decisive Moment For XRP MakroVision Research highlighted that XRP successfully halted its steep decline within the lower Golden Pocket region, between approximately $1.40 and $1.55, and has recovered as buying pressure resurfaced. In the short term, the firm noted that XRP is now approaching a key resistance range between $2.48 and $2.65. Related Reading: XRP Charts Telling A Tale: Q4 Setup Mirrors 2017 Bullish Breakout, Time To Buy? A failure to break above this zone could lead to temporary consolidation as the market gathers momentum for its next move. On the downside, the $1.96 level remains a critical support area, as losing it could reintroduce downside pressure. From an upside perspective, a decisive and sustained breakout above $2.65 could open the door for further gains toward $3.06. According to MakroVision Research, only a move beyond this level would confirm renewed bullish strength and restore clear upward momentum across the broader trend. In conclusion, the analyst emphasized that XRP’s precise targeting of the Golden Pocket and its swift recovery show that buyers are still active and defending key zones. However, the next major test lies in whether the bulls can generate enough momentum to overcome the $2.65 resistance and set the stage for a broader rally.

The concept of a price battleground in Bitcoin markets refers to a critical price range where the forces of buying and selling pressure are in a fierce and decisive contest. This is where the outcome is expected to determine BTC’s overall direction and confirm a continuation of a bull market or bear market correction. Why This Zone Will Define Bitcoin’s Next Expansion Phase In an X post, an institutional-grade reporter, Bitcoin Vector, has highlighted that BTC has entered its decisive battleground between $110,000 and $115,000, which could determine the trajectory of the entire cycle. In the past week, spot demand, which is the engine of sustained rallies, was notably weak and capped by the escalating US-China trade tensions. Related Reading: Bitcoin Enters ‘Disbelief Phase’ – Could Short Sellers Face The Next Squeeze? As those tensions eased, that spot demand showed signs of returning, allowing BTC to claw its way back above the critical $110,000 level. Despite recovery back into the battleground, momentum remains negative and flat. Without sustained inflow and spot demand, the bullish structure could fade fast, leaving BTC exposed to another pullback. However, if demand holds and momentum turns up, BTC advances deeper into the battleground. A failure to maintain this range and BTC may risk retreating again and raising the white flag. A full-time crypto trader, Sykodelic, has also offered a highly optimistic prediction that Bitcoin will be back to an All-Time High (ATH) by the end of the month. The market is still in uncertainty and fear, where BTC thrives for its next leg higher. This is the stage of the cycle where disbelief dominates. As a result, traders convince themselves the rally is over, and that’s when BTC starts to move again. By the time BTC approaches its previous highs, traders will finally believe again, which often happens when another long flush clears out late entrants. Technically, BTC price is moving back above the 4-hour 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA). Each time, Bitcoin successfully retests this level as support, the price continues to expand higher. “I think the worst is behind us,” Sykodelic noted. The Supply Battle That Shapes The Next Cycle The current Bitcoin market is in a supply tug-of-war between two powerful forces. According to the ambassador of MGBX_EN, BitBull, long-term holders (LTHs) have been constantly offloading their coins, while institutions are aggressively absorbing the supply through Spot ETFs and Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs).  Related Reading: Bitcoin Profit-Taking Hits $2.25 Billion Following Market Crash — What Could This Mean? Meanwhile, the treasury holdings have quietly surpassed $120 billion, with BTC still dominating the stack. Spot ETFs alone have absorbed tens of thousands of coins this quarter, proving that institutional demand remains strong. However, LTHs are still selling faster than ETFs, and DATs can absorb. Historically, when this kind of accelerated LTH distribution occurs, BTC tends to lose short-term momentum.  This is not a bearish setup, but it does imply that the upside remains temporarily capped until the selling pressure fades. Thus, institutions are buying the strength, not the bottoms. Ultimately, the next major breakout hinges on when long-term holders stop distributing and return to accumulation mode.

Litecoin (LTC) is showing strength as it holds onto its ascending trendline, maintaining bullish momentum. After holding above the $112–$115 demand zone, buyers continue to defend key support levels, positioning the market for further upside. With immediate targets around $120–$125, a breakout above this range could clear the path toward the highly anticipated $135 mark. Litecoin Technical Alignment Signals Strong Bullish Case In a recent X post, Alpha Crypto Signal, a cryptocurrency market analysis group, has noted that LTC is exhibiting a robust and healthy structure, indicating a potential long setup. According to the analysis, LTC is holding strong above its ascending trendline. It is also retesting the $112–$115 demand zone, a price range where buying pressure is expected to be high. Related Reading: Litecoin Structural Integrity: Long-Term Trendline Remains Unbroken Since 2020 The crypto analyst’s analysis further emphasizes the importance of key moving averages, noting that LTC is positioned precisely on top of the 9-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $112.68 and just below the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at $115.25. Both of these moving averages are acting as dynamic support levels, which provide a solid foundation for the cryptocurrency’s price.  This confluence of technical factors, as identified by Alpha Crypto Signal, adds significant weight to the bullish case for Litecoin. The horizontal demand block, combined with support from both the EMA and SMA, creates a strong technical picture that suggests the cryptocurrency is well-positioned for a potential price rally.  Key Support At $112 Holds Bullish Bias According to Alpha Crypto Signal, the bullish outlook for Litecoin remains intact as long as it holds its position above the $112 mark. This support level is considered a crucial threshold; maintaining it would indicate that the current market structure is favorable for a continued upward trend towards targets of $120–$125. Related Reading: This Litecoin Indicator Just Crossed A Critical Level — Here’s What Happened Last Time Alpha Crypto Signal’s analysis also outlines what a significant breakout could mean for LTC’s price. A decisive move and clean break above the $120–$125 resistance zone could pave the way for a more substantial rally. This would potentially unlock a path toward the next major price target of $135 or even higher, signaling strong momentum for the cryptocurrency. However, the crypto expert also specifies the conditions that would invalidate this positive forecast. The bullish long setup would be at risk if LTC were to experience a breakdown below the $110 support level. A drop below this point would not only threaten the current trendline support but would also cast doubt on the overall bullish structure, suggesting a potential shift in momentum to the downside.

Solana’s price action is showing fresh signs of strength as bulls reclaim key technical levels. With momentum building around critical support and resistance zones, traders appear to be positioning for the next leg higher. The chart setup suggests renewed upside potential, but overbought signals hint that caution may still be warranted. Solana Breaks Above 200 SMA, Extending Bullish Momentum Gemxbt, a crypto analyst on X, recently highlighted Solana’s strong bullish trend as the asset pushed above the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). This key technical breakout signals renewed strength in SOL’s price action, placing the cryptocurrency in a favorable position to extend its upward momentum. The break above this long-term indicator often attracts bullish sentiment, as it suggests the broader trend is shifting toward recovery and growth. Related Reading: Analyst Says Solana Price Is At The Gates Of Massive Breakout, Here’s The Target According to Gemxbt, Solana’s chart is now showing clear technical levels to watch, with immediate support around $195 and resistance forming at the $210 mark. These zones are crucial for traders, as they define the short-term battleground between buyers and sellers. A sustained hold above $195 would reinforce the bullish structure, while a decisive break above $210 could open the door for further gains. The analyst also pointed out that momentum indicators are aligning with the bullish case. SOL’s MACD has confirmed a bullish crossover, strengthening the outlook for continued upside. At the same time, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is approaching overbought levels, hinting that the market may be due for a temporary cooldown or pullback before the next move higher. Gemxbt further noted that trading volume has been rising alongside price action, a sign that market participants are actively positioning around Solana. This uptick in volume supports the bullish trend, as it reflects genuine buying interest rather than a weak rally.  Pulls Back To Key Zone: Fresh Buying Opportunity Emerges According to CryptoPulse in a recent update, Solana has retraced back to the top of a key zone, creating what the analyst views as a fresh buying opportunity. This pullback brought SOL under the $200 level, an area highlighted as strong value for traders positioning ahead of the next potential move upward. Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Falls Below Support, Will Bears Extend the Decline? CryptoPulse explained that this zone acts as a favorable entry point, offering a chance to average into positions before renewed momentum takes hold. By accumulating gradually at these levels, traders can mitigate risk while still being exposed to the upside potential when Solana regains strength. The update further emphasized that patience will be important, as market momentum is expected to kick back in once SOL stabilizes above this zone. With the broader trend leaning bullish, CryptoPulse suggests that buyers positioning now may be well-placed for the next leg higher in Solana’s rally.

Ethereum’s (ETH) latest price rally has sparked renewed debate over whether the market is nearing a critical turning point. Analysts are looking closely at past cycles for insight, with some suggesting that history may be repeating itself. If the patterns hold true, ETH could be only weeks away from a cycle peak, making this a decisive moment for investors to consider when it might be time to sell everything.  Ethereum’s Cycle Top Signals When To Exit Crypto analyst Jackis has shared insights into Ethereum’s recent price movements, indicating when investors should exit the market entirely. In a recent X social media post, the analyst noted that the ETH price action is closely mirroring its behavior from previous market cycles.  Related Reading: 5 Reasons Why Ethereum Price To $15,000 Is ‘Programmed’ Looking at the chart, Ethereum had hit one of its major cycle tops in January 2018, followed by another peak in November 2021. Moreover, both instances were preceded by a sharp upward trajectory that culminated in heavy corrections. Jackis also points out that in those earlier cycles, ETH was trading significantly above prior highs before topping out. This time, however, the altcoin has not even broken into a new all-time high yet, although it is currently approaching that critical resistance.  Notably, the timing of ETH’s current setup is significant, as the four-year cycle theory suggests that the cryptocurrency could be just four weeks away from a major top. Jackis noted that this window aligns with September, which could serve as a critical moment for investors to reassess risks and consider whether “selling everything” is warranted.  The analyst further highlighted that while Ethereum’s structure shows strength, most altcoins are lagging far behind. Cryptocurrencies such as Binance Coin (BNB), XRP, and Dogecoin (DOGE) have already established their tops in 2021 and remain far below those levels.  Jackie stated that their price action suggests a market environment more consistent with ETH trading around $2,200, rather than its current level below $4,500. Bitcoin, meanwhile, has continued to march higher since its November 2022 lows, forming higher lows and higher highs in a textbook bull market structure. ETH Panic Selling Or Pre-Breakout Opportunity? In other news, crypto market expert Ether Wizz argues that the current panic selling of Ethereum mirrors the same mistake traders made with Bitcoin in past cycles. At the time, early sellers underestimated the strength of institutional demand and long-term buyers, only to watch BTC surge far beyond expectations. Related Reading: Pundit Predicts ‘Near Term’ Bitcoin And Ethereum Prices, There’s Still Room To Run The analyst highlighted a recent rebound in the Ethereum price above the 50-week Simple Moving Average (SMA), which historically has signaled the beginning of explosive rallies. The comparison between Ethereum’s 2025 chart and its 2017 breakout also highlights a similarity. In both cases, the cryptocurrency consolidated, reclaimed its moving average, and then accelerated higher.   Notably, Ether Wizz points out that Ethereum could still experience a short-term correction of 5% to 10%. However, he argues it is misguided to assume ETH has already peaked, maintaining instead that the cryptocurrency is in the early stages of a move that could eventually drive its price toward a new all-time high of $10,000.

As Ethereum (ETH) trades within striking distance of its all-time high (ATH), on-chain data shows that the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap is experiencing mounting buying pressure. The asset is currently priced in the $4,600 range, just 4% shy of its ATH. Ethereum Net Daily Outflows Hit 40,000 According to a CryptoQuant Quicktake post by contributor burakkesmeci, more than 1.2 million ETH have been withdrawn from crypto exchanges over the past month. The analyst suggested that Ethereum’s uptrend is likely to continue. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Lags Despite All-Time High In Daily Transactions – What’s Next For ETH? For context, ETH has surged 53.8% in the last month, underscoring strong buying pressure amid rising institutional adoption. The asset has tripled in price from its local low of around $1,500, recorded in April this year. In their analysis, burakkesmeci highlighted Ethereum’s All Exchanges Netflow metric, which tracks the total ETH inflows and outflows across all cryptocurrency exchanges. Data from 2025 shows that Ethereum’s 30-day Simple Moving Average (SMA30) has plunged deep into negative territory. For the uninitiated, the SMA30 is the average value of a dataset – such as Ethereum’s daily net flows – calculated over the most recent 30 days. Each day, the oldest data point drops out and the newest is added, creating a smoother trend line that filters out short-term volatility. As of August 12, Ethereum’s SMA30 stood at -40,000 ETH, indicating an average daily outflow of that amount over the past month. Such large outflows suggest that investors are moving ETH off exchanges – likely into cold storage – in anticipation of further price gains. The CryptoQuant contributor also pointed to growing activity in spot ETH exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Data from SoSoValue shows that spot ETH ETFs recorded more than $1.5 billion in inflows during the week ending August 12. Notably, these ETFs have seen uninterrupted positive weekly inflows since May 16, attracting over $8 billion in nearly three months. The total net assets held in ETH ETFs now stand at $27.6 billion, representing 4.7% of Ethereum’s total market capitalization. ETH Rally To Remain Intact Burakkesmeci concluded that as long as ETH’s SMA30 remains in negative territory, its uptrend is likely to continue. They noted that unless the metric flips into positive territory, ETH’s bullish momentum could persist in the short term. Related Reading: Ethereum Rally Not Fueled By Bitcoin Dump, On-Chain Signals Show Some analysts predict ETH could reach as high as $8,600 if Bitcoin (BTC) surges to $150,000. However, a period of price consolidation is expected after ETH breaks through its current ATH. Meanwhile, crypto market enthusiast Orbion has advised selling all ETH in October if it reaches between $5,800 and $6,000. At press time, ETH is trading at $4,684, up 6.8% over the past 24 hours.

Bitcoin’s latest hourly close may be offering more than meets the eye. With the 25- and 50-hour SMAs holding firm and the MACD showing renewed expansion, some analysts believe a breakout could be quietly brewing, and smart traders are starting to take notice. BTC’s Momentum Builds With Healthy Technical Backing In his latest 1-hour market update, Shaco AI noted that Bitcoin continues to humor the bulls, printing a strong close at $111,225.5. The price action has maintained a clear bullish bias, staying well above both the 25-hour simple moving average (SMA) at $110,147 and the 50-hour SMA at $109,420. This positioning suggests that BTC is building a solid base for continuation, with short-term trend followers likely remaining confident in the move. Related Reading: Bitcoin Moving With Stocks, But Ethereum’s Correlation Is Fading Furthermore, the MACD has widened impressively, with a gain of $589.72, reflecting persistent buying pressure and bullish sentiment. As the MACD histogram expands and signal lines diverge, it reinforces the idea that the bulls may be far from done, and dips could be viewed as buying opportunities. Shaco AI also pointed to the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which now sits at 63.73. This level shows that the market is in a healthy bullish zone, strong enough to maintain upward momentum, but not yet in overbought territory that typically invites profit-taking or cooling off.  Adding confidence to the trend, the Average Directional Index (ADX) has hit 38.93, which Shaco AI emphasized as a key confirmation that the current trend has strength and durability. With all key indicators pointing to continued bullish structure, supported by rising momentum, trend alignment, and strong directional force, Bitcoin’s short-term technical picture remains decisively positive. The bulls are in control, and the chart suggests they may not be done pushing just yet. Breakout Or Breakdown? Bitcoin Poised At A Technical Crossroads Shaco AI, in his final remarks, highlighted that Bitcoin is approaching critical territory, marking resistance at $111,999.79 and support at $108,096.55 as the key zones to watch. He urged traders to “watch these like a hawk!” as price action around these levels could be decisive in determining BTC’s next major move. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Resumes Upward Move — Can It Break New Highs? He also pointed out that trading volume has been unusually quiet, joking that it “seems to have missed some coffee breaks,” with just 395 units recorded compared to the average of 869. This lighter volume signals reduced conviction, which could lead to sudden volatility or fakeouts near those key zones. “Keep those eyes peeled for potential breakouts or retracements as BTC flirts with key levels, but do remember there’s caution in the air with this lighter trading volume,” the expert added.

Bitcoin is holding steady above its 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), showing signs of underlying strength despite a lack of clear directional momentum. With rising trading volume and mixed technical indicators, the next move could swing either way, keeping the market on edge. RSI Holds Neutral As Bitcoin Awaits A Clearer Signal According to Shaco AI, in a recent update on X, Bitcoin is currently hovering around $107,264.17, positioning itself just above two key moving averages. It’s nudging the 25-day SMA at $107,229.82 and holding slightly above the 50-day SMA, which sits at $107,040.81. This positioning reflects a mild bullish bias in recent sessions, keeping both bulls and bears on alert. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Risks Market Crash After Closing Below Final Weekly Resistance Looking at momentum indicators, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is resting at 53.36—firmly in neutral territory. This suggests that Bitcoin is neither overbought nor oversold at the moment, offering no strong directional clues as it keeps the market guessing. Furthermore, the Average Directional Index (ADX) adds to this indecisive mood, coming in at a soft 20.44. This low reading signals a weak trend, meaning there’s not enough force from bulls or bears to drive a clear breakout just yet. In other words, the market isn’t leaning heavily in either direction. Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) remains in negative territory at -137.33. Although it isn’t signaling any strong downward momentum, traders may want to stay cautious and alert for any sudden shift in the current tone. Despite the technical indecision, market activity is picking up. Bitcoin’s recent trading volume has surged to 1903.51, well above the average of 1522.43. This uptick signals a rise in interest and participation, indicating that traders are actively positioning themselves in anticipation of Bitcoin’s next move. Critical Zones At Play As Market Prepares For A Directional Push Looking at key levels, Shaco AI highlighted that resistance is at $108,789.99, which seems to be a strong level to overcome. The level marks a significant ceiling for Bitcoin, and any attempt to push higher will need solid momentum to break through. On the other hand, support lies at $104,622.02. This support level will be critical in case the price begins to retreat, as a breakdown here could open the door for further downside. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price At $110,000: Why BTC Must Break Out Of This Wedge Based on current indicators, the analyst suggests it’s wise to keep an eye out for potential movement in either direction. With volume picking up, Bitcoin may soon test either the resistance above or fall back to support, depending on how momentum develops in the coming sessions.

Crypto Man MAB, in his latest analysis on X, pointed out that Optimism (OP) is now priced at $0.553, showing a mild increase of +0.004 (+0.73%) within the last four hours. While the short-term movement is slightly positive, he emphasized that the overall trend has been bearish since the asset peaked near $0.75, marking a clear phase of correction in the market. Trend And Volume Analysis OF Optimism (PO) Delving into the trend, Crypto Man MAB observed that the asset’s short-term trend is leaning bearish. Over the past 24 hours, the price of OP has declined from a high of $0.564 to a low of $0.483, forming a downward trajectory. He noted that the longer-term outlook reinforces this sentiment, as the asset has dropped by a steep 71.02% over the last 180 days, clearly signaling sustained downward pressure. Related Reading: Aave Address Count On Optimism Rapidly Growing, Will Price Rise To New 13-Month High? Turning attention to volume behavior, Crypto Man MAB emphasized the significance of recent spikes in OP’s trading volume, particularly during the sharp price decline. He explained that this increase in volume often indicates heightened market participation, most likely driven by panic selling or stop-loss triggers. The volume surge during this dip suggests that the bears are still active and in control. In his analysis, Crypto Man MAB further mentioned that the Volume SMA reflects periodic surges, with the most recent peak aligning with the downward movement in price. This alignment between rising volume and falling price often reflects a strong bearish sentiment, reinforcing the downward pressure seen on the chart. Support, Resistance, And Indicators Examining OP’s support and resistance levels, the analyst points out that the current price is trading near $0.483. This zone could act as a potential support if selling pressure begins to slow, offering a chance for a temporary stabilization or bounce. However, a sustained break below this level might signal further downside in the near term. Related Reading: Optimism (OP) Faces Potential Decline To $1.80 — Analyst On the flip side, the nearest resistance lies around $0.564, which represents the 24-hour high. If the price attempts a recovery, this level will likely serve as the first barrier to overcome. A successful move above it could signal improving sentiment, though further confirmation would be needed to shift the short-term bias away from bearish. Looking at the chart patterns, recent candlesticks show a mix of bullish and bearish activity, but the red candles have been more dominant. This pattern reinforces the ongoing downward momentum, indicating that sellers still have control. Until there is a visible shift in momentum, the overall tone remains cautious despite pockets of potential support. Featured image from YouTube, chart from Tradingview.com

Taking a closer look at PEPE recent movement, Crypto Man MAB noted that the token is now trading at $0.00001115, marking a 2.67% uptick in the short term. While the price increase may offer a glimmer of hope for bulls, he emphasized that the 4-hour chart still paints a broader picture of decline.  Volume Spikes Tell A Story, But The Trend Stays Bearish According to Crypto Man MAB, PEPE’s 24-hour trading volume stands at 12.97 trillion tokens, valued at around $143.83 million. He describes this activity as moderate, suggesting that while the market isn’t entirely quiet, it lacks the energy typically seen during strong bullish moves.  Related Reading: PEPE Shows Strength With A Firm Grip Above This Key Support Zone MAB also highlighted the behavior of the Volume Simple Moving Average (SMA), which has shown several notable spikes. These bursts of activity indicate temporary surges in trader interest, likely sparked by brief price fluctuations or speculative moves. However, the overall volume trend remains in line with the broader decline in price. This volume reflects cautious participation, with traders seemingly waiting on the sidelines for clearer signals before committing more heavily. When it comes to price trends, the numbers speak clearly. Over the past seven days, PEPE is down 2.79%, and over the last 30 days, the decline has deepened to 15.9%. Despite minor recoveries, the persistent downward pressure signals a market struggling to build upward momentum or break free from bearish sentiment. On a longer time frame, the picture grows even more concerning. PEPE has dropped 54.12% over the past 180 days, painting a tough scenario for long-term holders. Still, MAB points out a yearly gain of 2.67%, which, although modest, offers a small glimmer of strength. Key Levels Mark The Battlefield For PEPE’s Next Move In identifying key technical levels, the analyst pointed out that the recent low near $0.00001069 could serve as a short-term support zone, potentially offering a cushion if prices begin to drop again. This level reflects where buying pressure recently stepped in, making it a crucial area to watch. Related Reading: PEPE Bulls Regain Control As Price Stays Above Moving Average On the upside, the high of $0.00001133 stands out as a potential resistance level, where sellers previously emerged to cap the rally. If PEPE manages to break above this barrier with strong volume, it could open the door for further upside momentum. Drawing his conclusion, Crypto Man MAB noted that the chart indicates volatility with a bearish bias in the short term. However, he highlighted that the recent slight uptick in price, combined with higher trading volume, could suggest potential for a reversal if momentum continues to build.

In a recent update shared by Crypto Man MAB on X, UNI’s price action has taken a bullish turn. The token is currently trading at $8.403, up 1.82% (+$0.150), and has managed to break past the previous resistance range of $ 7.50–$ 8.00. This upward movement signals growing buying interest, and that momentum could be building for a stronger push ahead. Key Support And Resistance Levels Define UNI’s Next Move In his analysis, Crypto Man MAB highlighted UNI’s evolving price structure, pointing to key support and resistance levels. The immediate support is seen around $7.103, which marks the 24-hour low. If UNI pulls back further, stronger support may be found near $6.500, a level that has previously attracted buying interest and could act as a safety net for bulls. Related Reading: Uniswap (UNI) Blastoff At Hand? The Sleeping Giant Awakens At $4.6 Support On the upside, resistance stands near $8.677, the recent 24-hour high. This zone is currently capping the rally, but if buying momentum persists, UNI could target the $9.0 mark next. While this level presents a psychological barrier, it also aligns with short-term bullish projections, adding more weight to its significance. In terms of market activity, Crypto Man MAB noted a notable increase in trading volume, which aligns with UNI’s recent price surge. This volume spike suggests that buyers are stepping in with strong conviction, reinforcing the strength behind the upward movement. A sustained high volume typically validates price action, which supports the argument for a potential rally continuation, provided the momentum holds and no major resistance halts the trend. Breakout Signals Strength, But Long-Term Caution Lingers According to the analyst, the UNI chart shows a shift from a period of consolidation into a noticeable upward breakout. The recent dominance of green candlesticks points to growing bullish moves and renewed buying pressure in the short term. Related Reading: Uniswap Stays On Course For More Gains – $12.3 Resistance In Sight However, the longer-term trend suggests a more cautious outlook. Over the last 180 days, UNI has declined by 53.31%, and its one-year performance shows a decrease of 18.98%, indicating that the asset has been in an overall downtrend despite recent gains. Presently, the Simple Moving Average (SMA) is demonstrating increased trading activity, which aligns with the positive price movement and supports the current bullish sentiment. This rise in volume may strengthen the case for a possible continuation of the ongoing upward trend, but traders should remain alert to any shifts in momentum. In conclusion, Crypto Man MAB noted that UNI is showing short-term upward strength, but the broader trend remains uncertain. However, a clear breakout above the $8.677 resistance level would be a strong signal for continued upside. Featured image from Medium, chart from Tradingview.com

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.

A crypto analyst has outlined a long-term bullish roadmap for the XRP price, forecasting a gradual climb toward staggering all-time highs of $37. While the technical analysis and chart patterns support this optimistic outlook, bearish signals still linger on the horizon, highlighting a critical battleground for control between bulls and bears.  XRP Price Roadmap To $37 Drawing on the historical behavior of the XRP price action, market expert Egrag Crypto has highlighted the significance of the relationship between two key Moving Averages (MA): the 21-week Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the 33-week Simple Moving Average (SMA).  Related Reading: Two Major Fibonacci Levels Put XRP Price At $8.40 And $27 In a technical report shared on X (formerly Twitter), the analyst noted that the interaction between these two MAs has repeatedly provided strong signals during both bullish and bearish market phases. He emphasized that this relationship could either set the stage for XRP to skyrocket toward a final target of $37 in this market cycle or trigger a bearish price breakdown.  According to the analyst’s chart and historical data, every time the 21 EMA crosses above the 33 SMA on the weekly chart, a dramatic price rally for XRP has always followed. Previous instances have seen staggering gains of 520.25% in 2025, 855.36% in 2021, 1,600.63% in 2018, and even as high as 6,505.21% in 2017. These moves were all preceded by the same crossover pattern: the 21 EMA taking a dominant position above the 33 SMA.  Based on this cyclic behavior, Egrag Crypto projects that XRP could once again be poised for a parabolic move upwards. The most conservative bullish targets lie around $5.71 and $9.57, while more aggressive estimates point to $27, with an ultimate extension potentially reaching $37. These price levels have been mapped out by projecting the percentage gains from past bull runs onto the chart structure.  Egrag Crypto has further emphasized that XRP’s bullish setup is being watched closely. Its price hovers around $2.34, signaling a substantial upside if history repeats.  Bears And Bulls Fight For Dominance  Despite Egrag Crypto’s optimistic outlook for the XRP price, the analyst warns that the bears are not out of the picture yet. The same Moving Average crossover logic that signals bullish strength could also serve as a double-edged sword, potentially indicating a powerful bearish reversal.  Related Reading: XRP Price At $10-$20 Only The Beginning, It’s Headed For $1,000 – Analyst Reveals Historically, when the 21 EMA crosses below the 33 SMA (a bearish cross), the XRP price has entered significant downtrends. The past two bearish crosses on May 28 and November 2021 led to steep declines of 87% and 72%, respectively.  Egrag Crypto cautions that a similar bearish crossover could occur, potentially triggering a price drop of nearly 79.54% from XRP’s local top. If this crossover does appear, the market expert has revealed plans to exit a large portion of his XRP position, signaling that the macro top has been reached and a prolonged bear phase is likely to follow.  Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Cardano (ADA) is flashing mixed signals as its market structure hints at an imminent short-term price crash. While bearish indicators suggest a possible decline, a crypto analyst reveals that the broader trend remains intact, with technical patterns supporting the potential for a rally toward the $0.9 mark. Cardano Price Crash Incoming TradingView Crypto analyst SiDec has released a bearish price forecast for Cardano, anticipating a significant correction toward the $0.75 area in the coming days. This cautious outlook is based on detailed analysis using Elliott Wave Theory, Fibonacci tools, and critical price action zones.  Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Releases Next Potential Targets For Cardano, Is $1 ADA Still Possible? SiDec has stated that ADA’s price continues to consolidate after completing a 5-wave impulse move, signaling the end of its upward momentum. Following this strong impulse rally, the cryptocurrency is now exhibiting a classic Elliott Wave behavior, transitioning into a textbook ABC corrective pattern.  The cryptocurrency first experienced a pull-back, labeled as Wave A on the price chart, followed by a temporary recovery in Wave B. According to SiDec, Wave C is expected to complete the retracement pattern, with ADA’s final downward move nearing its end.  Currently, technical indicators and price action point to the $0.705 region as a high-probability long entry zone. The TradingView analyst also clarifies where ADA might find solid support during this corrective phase using Fibonacci Retracement zones. The 50% retracement level of the entire bullish 5-wave impulse is positioned approximately at $0.7534 — a critical price point that coincides closely with ADA’s previous price swing at $0.746. This former resistance level has yet to be revisited, making it a natural support candidate.  The analysis further identifies a 1:1 ABC extension for the anticipated correction in ADA, placing Wave C’s potential crash target around $0.7492. This also creates a tight cluster of technical indicators in the range of roughly $0.75, indicating a strong support zone.  Further supporting this level, the daily 21 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) stands at $0.7455, while the daily 21 Simple Moving Average (SMA) is slightly lower at $0.7347. SiDec has also identified the Point of Control (POC), which marks the price with the highest volume, near $0.7318.  The analyst further highlights that Cardano’s anchored Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) resides within the $0.75 support zone. At the same time, the Pitchfork tool’s golden pocket aligns dynamically as support around the same area.  ADA Price Path To $0.92 Holds Firm While SiDec eyes a potential crash to new lows for ADA in the near term, the analyst’s chart also shows a green zone, with a projected bullish bounce drawn. Following its Wave C crash, Cardano is expected to rebound and approach the $0.92 level.  Related Reading: Cardano Price Set For 300% Explosion With Major Bullish Impulse The TradingView analyst has advised caution around this area, as $0.92 acts as a significant resistance zone and coincides with a prior liquidity zone that could trigger rejection or profit-taking.  SiDec has emphasized that the risk-to-reward ratio around this area will only become favorable once there is clear confirmation, such as an SFP, a bearish engulfing candle, or visible divergence. Overall, if the $0.75 support zone holds, Cardano, which is currently trading at $0.78, could be positioned for a strong recovery toward $0.92 and beyond.

The Bitcoin price is once again at the center of attention as it continues its upward climb in what appears to be the final phase of the current bull cycle. Riding on the back of macroeconomic optimism and institutional interest, Bitcoin is showing renewed strength, with technical analysis forecasting a final pump to a new ATH above $120,000. Once the flagship cryptocurrency completes this move, its price is forecasted to crash down to $60,000, signaling the onset of the bear market.  Bitcoin Price To Surpass $120,000 In 2025 Xanrox, a crypto analyst, has shared a new Bitcoin price prediction on TradingView, forecasting a bullish run to a new all-time high and a subsequent crash to major lows. Expanding on his optimistic projection, the crypto analyst has confirmed that Bitcoin is in the final stages of this bullish cycle, meaning that the cryptocurrency is gearing up for its most explosive price surge yet. Related Reading: ‘The Big Short’ Coming For Bitcoin? Why BTC Will Clear $110,000 The analyst shared an Elliott Wave technical chart, indicating that Bitcoin is currently in Wave 3 of a five-wave pattern forming an ending diagonal. This structure typically marks the final stage of a bullish cycle, just before a major correction.  Xanrox predicts that Bitcoin will eventually enter two final wave stages (Wave 4 and 5) before reaching a cycle peak. According to his analysis, the ideal range for this bull run lies between $120,000 and $125,000. More precisely, he highlights a Fibonacci Extension target of 1.618 at $122,069 as the potential top of this bull cycle.  The TradingView analyst also notes that this Fibonacci target is the best price to sell and prepare for the bear market that’s projected to follow. Notably, this price level aligns with a long-term trend line that stretches from Bitcoin’s 2017 peak to the 2021 top and the next forecasted 2025 ATH.  Strengthening the analyst’s conviction of a potential rally to $122,069, Bitcoin’s historical price behavior reveals a consistent relationship with the 50-week Simple Moving Average (SMA). The analysis highlights that the cryptocurrency has repeatedly bounced off or corrected to this moving average during key turning points in past cycles. This pattern adds further credibility to the bullish outlook.  Next Up: 50% Price Crash To $60,000 Despite Xanrox’s optimistic price projection for 2025, the analyst warns of an impending Bitcoin market crash in 2026. Once the cryptocurrency completes its final bullish wave and tops out, the analyst anticipates a steep correction, potentially dragging the price down to $60,000. This projected 50% drop mirrors past cycle declines, particularly the sharp correction seen in the 2018 and 2022 bear markets.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Price To $150,000: BTC Is Mirroring Bullish Fractal From 2020 The analyst’s chart identifies this looming price crash as part of the natural end to Bitcoin’s 4-year cycle, emphasizing that buying at the projected peak of $122,069 could expose investors to significant downside risk. Instead, Xanrox recommends preparing for this bearish transition by exiting the market within the previously outlined sell zone and waiting for a re-entry opportunity during the expected 2026 dip.

Chainlink (LINK) continues to showcase resilience, holding firm within a well-established uptrend as the price consolidates near a critical support level at $15.29. This zone, which has previously acted as a launchpad for bullish momentum, is once again drawing attention as bulls defend it with determination. The current price action suggests that the market is taking a breather, potentially setting the stage for a fresh leg higher. With bullish sentiment gradually building and support holding steady, speculations are whether LINK can capitalize on this consolidation and ignite its next rally toward higher resistance zones. Why Chainlink Bulls Are Still In Control The current price action reveals that Chainlink has resumed its upward movement following a brief and healthy pullback. After testing the immediate support zone and holding firm above the $15.29 level, the bulls have stepped back in with renewed confidence. LINK’s rebound suggests that the temporary pause in momentum was likely a consolidation phase rather than a full-fledged reversal, allowing the market to reset before continuing its ascent. Related Reading: Chainlink (LINK) Targets Rebound To $19 — But Only If This Key Support Holds One of the standout bullish signals is LINK’s recent break above the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). This moving average often acts as a dynamic resistance in downtrends, and a successful close above it suggests a potential trend reversal or continuation of bullish momentum. Such a move typically garners the attention of technical traders, increasing the likelihood of follow-through buying pressure. Further confirmation comes from the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator, which has now made a bullish crossover and climbed above the zero line. This momentum shift reflects a strengthening buying trend and hints that LINK could be gearing up for a broader breakout. If the current setup holds, LINK may soon challenge higher resistance zones, opening the door for a sustained rally. What Could Derail The Uptrend? While Chainlink shows promising signs of continuing its uptrend, the bullish momentum is still at risk. A failure to hold above the immediate support at $15.29 could invite increased selling pressure and signal a potential shift in sentiment. If bears push the price below this level, a deeper retracement toward the next major support zones is probable. Related Reading: Chainlink Shake-Up: Investors Pull $120 Million From Exchanges Additionally, overbought signals from momentum indicators such as the RSI might suggest exhaustion among buyers if they begin to flash warning signs. A bearish crossover or weakening in the MACD could further confirm waning strength. Traders should also be cautious of broader market volatility or negative macroeconomic developments, which can weigh heavily on sentiment even for technically strong assets like LINK. Keeping an eye on volume and price reaction at key levels will be critical to assess whether the uptrend remains intact or is at risk of faltering.

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.

Uniswap (UNI) has slipped below the crucial $6.7 support level, raising concerns about a potential extended downturn. This breakdown comes amid increasing selling pressure, signaling that the bulls may be losing their grip on the market.  With volatility rising and market uncertainty growing, the next few trading sessions will be crucial in determining whether UNI can bounce back or if a prolonged downtrend is on the horizon. Will the bulls reclaim lost ground, or is UNI heading for even lower levels? Price Action and Technical Indicators Flash Warning Signs UNI’s price action is showing clear signs of weakness as the token struggles to regain momentum after breaking below the $6.7 support level. The recent downturn has intensified bearish sentiment, with sellers dominating the market and pushing UNI toward lower support levels. If buying pressure doesn’t return soon, further losses could be imminent. Related Reading: Uniswap Bleeds 20%—Is This Whale Behind The Drop? The asset has dropped below its 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), a key long-term support level. This breakdown suggests a potential shift toward a broader downtrend, especially if UNI fails to reclaim this level quickly. A prolonged stay below the 100-day SMA could reinforce seller dominance, increasing the risk of further declines. Meanwhile, the MACD has flipped bearish, with the signal line crossing below the MACD line, a classic indication that sellers are gaining strength. Additionally, Uniswap trading volume has declined, suggesting a lack of strong bullish participation to counteract the selloff. For Uniswap to regain strength, buyers must push the price back above $6.7 with strong volume, invalidating the breakdown. Until then, the risk of more downside toward $5.5 and $4.8 remains high. Can Uniswap Reclaim $6.7 and Reverse Course? Uniswap is at a critical inflection point after its recent breakdown below $6.70. As UNI struggles to regain momentum, traders and investors are left wondering whether this drop is just a temporary setback or the start of a deeper correction. Related Reading: Uniswap Stays On Course For More Gains – $12.3 Resistance In Sight While bears have dominated recent price action, the market questions whether UNI can fight its way back above this key level or if the resistance will hold. If UNI manages to break and hold above $6.7 with robust buying volume, it could indicate that bullish momentum is returning, invalidating recent bearish pressure and signaling a potential trend reversal.  A decisive breakout above this level would restore investor confidence and also attract more buyers, leading to an extended rally. Should this scenario unfold, UNI might gain traction toward $8.7, with a sustained push driving the price to $10.3 and beyond in the coming weeks.

SUI is making another attempt to break past the crucial $2.82 resistance, a level that has repeatedly challenged bullish momentum. After a steady climb, the price now stands at a decisive point—will buyers have enough strength to push through, or will sellers step in to defend this barrier once again? Recent price action suggests that positive sentiment is gaining traction, with increasing trading volumes and strong support levels forming beneath. However, past attempts to breach $2.82 have resulted in pullbacks, making this level a significant test for the market. A confirmed breakout could trigger a fresh rally to higher targets, while failure to overcome this hurdle may lead to renewed selling pressure. Chart Patterns And Technical Indicators: Signs Of A Breakout? SUI price action is showing promising signs of an impending breakout as it continues to test the critical $2.82 resistance level.  Looking closer at the chart reveals the formation of bullish ascending candlesticks, a pattern characterized by higher lows and a steady resistance ceiling. This structure suggests that buyers are building momentum, increasing the likelihood of an upward breakout. Related Reading: SUI Poised For Price Rally? Ascending Channel Suggests Move Toward $2.50 Technical indicators further support this outlook. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has climbed above 50, while the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has shown a bullish crossover. Additionally, trading volume is rising, a key factor often preceding a breakout move. The price has also broken above the bearish trendline, signaling a potential shift in market sentiment. This breakout suggests that selling pressure is weakening, allowing buyers to regain control. A successful breakout from a bearish trendline usually indicates the end of a downtrend and the beginning of a possible upward movement. If SUI surpasses the critical $2.82 resistance level with a strong trading volume, it could ignite a significant rally, pushing the price toward $3.50 and beyond. Breaking above this level would indicate that buyers have gained control, invalidating previous resistance and setting the stage for further upside momentum.  Rejection And Possible Pullback Levels For SUI While SUI’s bullish strength is building, the $2.82 resistance remains a formidable barrier, and failure to break above it might lead to a downside move. If buyers fail to sustain momentum, sellers may step in, triggering a rejection that could send the price back toward key support levels. Related Reading: SUI Bearish Grip Tightens As Price Eyes $2.8 Retest Amid Market Pressure The first critical support to watch lies around $2.36, a level where buyers previously defended against deeper declines. If selling pressure intensifies, SUI could drop toward $1.59. A break below this level may expose the price to deeper corrections, with $1.42 acting as a crucial defense zone for bulls.

After a brief yet necessary cooldown, BNB is back in action, regaining bullish momentum and resuming its uptrend. The recent pullback provided a much-needed reset, allowing buyers to step in near the $605 support level and strengthen the foundation for a renewed climb.  Now, with increasing buying pressure, BNB is making another push toward key resistance levels, signaling that the rally may not be over just yet. However, breaking through overhead resistance will be a crucial test for bulls. If buying pressure continues to build, BNB could push toward new local highs. Meanwhile, if bears step in at key levels, another retracement could be on the horizon.  Technical Rebound: Charting The Recovery Momentum After a strong rally, BNB experienced a brief pullback, allowing the market to cool off before resuming its upward trajectory. Rather than signaling a reversal, this dip served as a natural correction, shaking out weak hands while providing strong support for the next move. Related Reading: BNB Price Finds Footing After Clearing $605 Resistance Toward Higher Targets During the pullback, BNB found support at a crucial level, preventing a deeper decline and reinforcing bullish confidence. The consolidation phase also helped ease overbought conditions, resetting momentum indicators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and allowing for a more sustainable climb. Additionally, the price is currently holding above the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA).  As long as the price remains above the 100-day SMA, the uptrend remains intact, suggesting the potential for further gains. As BNB continues its recovery, key resistance levels will play a crucial role in determining the strength of its uptrend. The first major hurdle lies at $680, a psychological and technical barrier where previous rejections have occurred. A decisive break above this level could attract more buying pressure, paving the way for more growth.  Beyond $680, the next resistance to monitor is around $725, where sellers previously stepped in during the last rally. Clearing this zone would signal strong upward movement and open the door for a potential test of the $795 mark, a key milestone that might fuel further upside. BNB Bearish Risks: What Could Halt The Uptrend? Despite BNB’s renewed bullish momentum, several factors could stall its upward movement. One key risk is failure at critical resistance levels, particularly around $680. A rejection at these points combined with declining buying pressure, would trigger a pullback and encourage profit-taking. Related Reading: BNB Ready To Breakout? New ATH Coming ‘In No Time’ If This Resistance Breaks Another concern is weak trading volume. If BNB’s rally lacks sufficient volume support, it may indicate waning investor confidence, making it easier for sellers to regain control. Additionally, if indicators like the RSI enter the overbought territory without strong price follow-through, a correction could be imminent. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from Tradingview.com

The meme-inspired cryptocurrency PEPE has once again captured the attention of traders as its price demonstrates remarkable resilience, holding firm above a key 100-day simple moving average (SMA) after a brief pullback. This technical strength has sparked speculation about whether PEPE is gearing up for a bullish continuation, potentially reigniting its upward momentum. With traders closely monitoring price action, a breakout above nearby resistance could confirm a bullish continuation, setting the stage for further gains. However, failure to maintain support may shift momentum in favor of the bears as PEPE hovers at this critical juncture. PEPE Recent Price Action: A Snapshot PEPE has been displaying steady price movement, holding above a key support level and maintaining bullish momentum. After bouncing from recent lows, the meme coin has managed to stay above a crucial moving average. This stability suggests that buyers are still in control, preventing a deeper pullback and keeping the uptrend intact. Related Reading: Analyst Says PEPE Price Must Break This Resistance Level For 150% Surge Toward ATHs Technical indicators continue to support a bullish outlook for PEPE. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains in positive territory, reflecting sustained buying momentum. If the RSI holds its current course, it can strengthen the case for more upside, suggesting that the uptrend has room to extend. Trading volume has remained consistent, indicating sustained interest from market participants. However, resistance levels ahead will play a crucial role in determining whether PEPE can extend its rally or face a temporary slowdown. If bullish momentum strengthens, the price could push toward the $0.00000766 resistance level. A decisive breakout above this level serves as a strong bullish confirmation, paving the way for further upside. Should buying pressure intensify, PEPE may rally toward the next significant resistance, attracting more traders looking to capitalize on the upward trend. Bearish Scenario: Key Support Levels If Momentum Shifts While PEPE remains in bullish territory, a shift in momentum will open the door for a potential pullback. If selling pressure increases, the first key support to watch is the moving average level that has been acting as a price floor. A break below this level could weaken bullish confidence and trigger a deeper decline. Related Reading: PEPE Struggles Against Strong Resistance, Bearish Pressure Intensify Further downside raises the risk of a decline toward secondary support zones such as $0.00000589 and $0.00000398, where buyers may attempt to regain control. Failure of the bulls to defend these levels will open the door for other support levels to be tested. Additionally, declining volume and a bearish crossover in momentum indicators such as the MACD or RSI could further confirm a shift in sentiment. For now, the uptrend remains intact, but traders should remain cautious of any signs of weakness. Holding above these key support zones will be crucial in determining whether bulls can maintain control or if bears will take over. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Toncoin (TON) has been steadily climbing since facing a rebound at $2.36, reinforcing a bullish outlook and reflecting increasing investor confidence. Unlike volatile price swings seen in other assets, TON’s consistent rise signals strong underlying demand and market stability. The cryptocurrency has successfully held key support levels, preventing major pullbacks and allowing buyers to take control of the trend. With momentum building, market participants are closely monitoring resistance levels that could determine the next phase of TON’s price action. Should buying pressure continue to increase, the cryptocurrency could be poised for further gains, potentially testing higher resistance zones.  Can Toncoin Sustain Its Renewed Upswing? Toncoin recent price resurgence has strengthened bullish sentiment, but the sustainability of this uptrend remains a critical focus. The cryptocurrency has managed to establish solid footing above the $2.36 key support level. However, maintaining this momentum will depend on several technical and market factors. Related Reading: TON Price Jumps 20% Following Positive News On Telegram Founder The cryptocurrency is currently maintaining its upward momentum as it approaches the $4.34 resistance level and the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). This steady climb indicates growing bullish strength, with buyers continuing to push the price higher despite potential resistance. A decisive breakout above the $4.34 resistance level could strengthen the ongoing uptrend, setting the stage for Toncoin toward the $6.13 resistance mark. If buying momentum remains strong and the price clears this key level, it could open the door for a potential test of its all-time high of $7.29. Technical indicators such as the MACD suggest that momentum remains in favor of the bulls, but increasing resistance pressure might lead to volatility. Sustained buying pressure will confirm the uptrend and push the price beyond these critical technical barriers. Volume analysis further reinforces Toncoin’s upward momentum, with trading volume increasing by over 10%, indicating strong market participation. Should volume continue to rise alongside price movement, it could validate the strength of the uptrend and enhance the likelihood of further gains. Potential Downside Risk If Toncoin faces rejection at a key resistance level, monitoring critical support zones will be essential to assess the strength of its uptrend. The first major support level to watch is around $2.36, where buyers previously showed interest. A dip to this level is likely to attract fresh demand and stabilize the price.

Fetch.AI (FET) is turning heads as it steadily regains momentum after a strong rebound from the $0.452 level. This key support held firm, allowing bulls to regain control and drive prices higher.

Will this rebound be the catalyst for a sustained rally? Analyzing Price Action: Signs Of a Sustained Uptrend?

The $0.452 level proved to be a critical support zone for FET, acting as a springboard for its recent price recovery. This level halted further declines and provided a solid foundation for buyers to step in, signaling strong demand at lower price points. Technical analysis reveals several promising signs for FET as the price approaches a critical breakout level. FET is on the verge of surpassing the 4-hour Simple Moving Average (SMA), a key indicator that signals a shift in market sentiment. A decisive break above this level could bolster further price expansion. A noticeable uptick in trading volume has accompanied FET’s price recovery, indicating growing interest and participation from traders. Higher volume during an uptrend is often a strong indicator of sustained strength as it reflects increased buying pressure. Potential Price Targets: How Far Can FET Rally Go? Despite the encouraging signs, the coin’s path to a sustained uptrend has seen challenges. The token must maintain momentum and overcome higher resistance levels to confirm a lasting recovery. However, external factors such as macroeconomic conditions and overall market volatility may threaten its progress. Related Reading: FET Price Under Pressure: RSI Flags Extended Bearish Move Toward $0.966 FET’s first major target lies near the $0.80 psychological level, a key barrier that could trigger profit-taking or accelerate buying pressure. Breaking above this mark is likely to spur a move for FET toward $1.09, where previous price action has shown notable resistance. On the downside, a failure to clear key resistance levels might trigger a pullback, leading to a potential retracement to crucial support zones. The $0.452 support could serve as a buffer, but if bearish pressure intensifies, a retest to $0.057 is probable, which previously acted as a strong rebound point.

BNB has once again demonstrated its resilience and strength by breaking through the crucial $605 resistance level. This milestone, achieved after weeks of testing and consolidation, has sparked renewed interest among traders and investors. Following the breakout, BNB has entered a phase of price stabilization, comfortably holding above the $605 mark and transforming it into a robust support zone. This consolidation phase is a classic sign of a healthy market, as it allows the asset to catch its breath after a significant upward move. It also suggests that the breakout was backed by genuine buying pressure rather than short-term speculation. With the $605 level now acting as a springboard, the stage is set for BNB to target higher price levels in the coming days or weeks. BNB Price Action: Stability Above $605 Signals Strength BNB’s ability to hold above the $605 resistance level after breaking through reflects growing bullish momentum. Its stability indicates that buyers are defending the breakout level, reinforcing its significance as a new support zone. Sustained trading above this level could pave the way for further gains toward targets near $630 and $650. Related Reading: BNB Ready To Breakout? New ATH Coming ‘In No Time’ If This Resistance Breaks Technical indicators reinforce the strength of BNB’s breakout, signaling that bullish momentum remains intact. The MACD continues to trend in positive territory, with the MACD line staying above the signal line. This positioning suggests that buying pressure remains dominant, and the possibility of further gains remains strong. Additionally, the histogram bars are expanding, reflecting increasing bullish momentum. Furthermore, the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) acts as dynamic support, with BNB trading above it, which implies that the broader trend remains bullish, and any dips toward this level could present buying opportunities.  If BNB maintains its momentum, it could target $680, strengthening its bullish outlook. A breakout above the level may attract more buyers, increasing the chances of a sustained rally. Presently, the $680 serves as a key resistance, and clearing it with strong volume is likely to spark a move to $724 in the medium term. Support Zones To Watch In Case Of A Pullback If BNB experiences a pullback, the $605 level will be the first key support to watch, as it has flipped from resistance to support. Holding this level could reinforce bullish momentum and signal that buyers are defending the breakout.  Related Reading: Binance Coin Critical Test: Will BNB Hold Or Plunge To $214? However, if selling pressure increases and $605 fails to hold, the $531 demand zone comes into play, which has historically provided strong support. A rebound from this level would indicate buyer strength, but a break below will expose BNB to more downside before another bullish attempt. An extended correction could bring $500 into focus, which aligns with the 100-day SMA and has previously served as a significant pivot point for price rebounds.
