BTC/USD is likely to retest the $28,500 zone following the rejection above $30K. Source: The Distributed.

Following a month of uncertainty due to Bitcoin’s range-bound behavior, the public announcement of the SEC versus Ripple case spurred cryptocurrency investors to turn positive. However, the price encountered immense supply around the current range high at $31,500 and pushed the price back to the current support, near $30,391.

RSI is still holding above 50 (currently 53.40), indicating bullish momentum. Although, the momentum may turn bearish and lead Bitcoin to crawl back near $28K in case the price drops below the $30K zone.

If the price fails to exceed the current support, we may see the BTC price return to long-term support at $28,500. During this movement, the price will also encounter the 50 and 100 EMA dynamic supports around $29,204 and $28,100, respectively.

Key Findings: ETH Technical Analysis

  • Ethereum price rejected a move above the $2K region that escalated a fresh bearish sentiment.
  • The price continues defying increasing sell pressure and is testing the support near $1,928.
  • ETH trend will be considered bullish until the price breaks the support at $1,838.
