Bitcoin Technical Analysis
Last week, BTC/USD hit an all-time high of $99,588 before beginning to decline. BTC fell 7%, reaching a low of $90,791 by Tuesday. However, it did recover marginally on Wednesday. At the time of writing on Friday, it was trading about $97,000.
If Bitcoin continues to recover, it might rise to its all-time high of $99,588. The daily chart’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator is 65.47, which is above its neutral level of 50, suggesting bullish momentum. However, traders should exercise caution because the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) produced a bearish crossover on Tuesday, indicating a sell signal.
If BTC fails to recover and the pullback continues, it could extend the decline to retest its important psychological level of $85,000.

Ethereum Technical Analysis
On Wednesday, the Ethereum price climbed 9.8% and finished above the weekly barrier level of $3,506. However, on Friday, it was trading slightly lower, around $3,602. If $3,506 maintains as support, ETH might rebound and retest the psychologically significant $4,000 barrier.
The RSI on the daily chart is 69.47, above its neutral threshold of 50, signaling that bullish momentum is gathering pace well below overbought levels.
If ETH falls below $3,506, it may have a retreat to retest the support at $3,000. Otherwise, rebounding above this support and moving north will be considered a pullback/retracement of the ongoing bullish trend. In such a case, we might see traders adding more long positions in between the $3.5K and $3.6K zone targeting the psychological resistance near $4,020.
