What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin continues to trade at the $69,000 level over the weekend. Bitcoin is facing a major resistance at the $70,000 level. If there is a fresh increase, the immediate resistance is at the $69,500 level and the support lies at the $68,000. On the other hand, Ethereum set a new peak by moving higher than the $3,800 resistance. It is currently trading above the $3,900 level and is eyeing towards $4,000.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “BTC traded mostly flat yesterday in the 68.6k USD to 70.5 k USD range as both bulls and bears trying to give a direction to the market but failing to do so after the unexpected ETH ETF last week. For ETH, 4k USD is acting as a big resistance for the prices to go further up and test all-time highs of 4800 USD while support can be expected around the 3800 USD mark.”
Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, said, “Bitcoin has failed to sustain the crucial $70,000 level and is consolidating around $68,500, signalling potential bearish trends. This inability to hold above $70,000 suggests weakening buying pressure. On the daily chart, Bitcoin's struggle to maintain gains above this psychological level is evident, with the 50-day moving average indicating possible downward momentum. If Bitcoin falls below the immediate support at $68,000, it may test lower levels around $65,000 and $62,000.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin is trading at $68,400, down 0.50%, just below its pivotal point of $68,500, indicating a bearish outlook. The immediate resistance levels are $69,600, $70,650 and $71,950. On the downside, the support levels are $67,265, $66,380 and $65,144. The RSI is at 47, indicating neutral market sentiment, while the 50-day EMA at $68,737 indicates resistance. Bitcoin's position at $68,502 is critical, with a potential bearish move below $68,500 and bullish potential above. Technical indicators suggest a cautious approach, with market direction dependent on upcoming price action around the $68,500 mark.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Bitcoin, the world’s largest digital asset by market cap failed to break the $70k resistance level yesterday as it faced heavy liquidations due to profit booking. The immediate short-term support level for BTC is at $68,000. Ethereum followed a similar trend as it slipped by almost 2% breaking its upward momentum for the first time in 2 weeks. The US economic data slated to be released this week may have a significant impact on investor sentiment and decide the course of financial markets across the globe.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “In the last 24 hours, the market remained mixed. BTC crossed $70,000 but later dropped below $68,000, liquidating high-leveraged positions on both sides. ETH attempted to break the $4,000 mark but failed. BTC dominance continued to decline, which could help alts gain strength. Funding rates of most tokens are neutral, while altcoins also showed mixed performance.”
