What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin has been trading within a range of $55,000 to $65,000 over the past month. Although it's down 22% from its all-time high of $73,800, it remains 124% higher than a year ago. Currently, Bitcoin lacks the momentum for a decisive breakout, and it continues to consolidate. The next key support level is at $55,200, where buyers may step in, while resistance is at $58,800, a level it needs to break to gain further bullish momentum. Traders and investors are watching closely for signs of strength or weakness around these crucial levels.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Unable to sustain the 58k USD mark, BTC is trying hard to hold just above the important 57k USD mark to give bulls some hopes of a reversal from this point of time. However, all eyes will be on the US economic data of Non-farm payrolls today, which could further trigger a violent move in Bitcoin.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin faced rejection after testing its 50% retracement level at $59,560, falling 2.78% on Tuesday and another 1.5% to $56,622 on Wednesday. It is now testing daily support at $56,022. A close below this support could signal a further decline to around $54,000. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Awesome Oscillator (AO) are both below their neutral levels, indicating weak momentum and a likely continuation of the downtrend. Conversely, if Bitcoin breaks above $59,560 and closes above $62,019, which is the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, the bearish outlook may be invalid. In this case, Bitcoin could rise by 5.5% and approach resistance at $65,379.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “In a remarkable turn of events, the cryptocurrency market has rebounded, with Bitcoin climbing 1%, Ethereum gaining 1.8%, and Dogecoin rising by 0.9%, culminating in an overall market increase in just 24 hours. This recovery follows earlier declines driven by weak macroeconomic data and concerns surrounding Nvidia's impact on risk assets.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “The crypto market saw an uptick following a lower-than-expected U.S. job openings data announcement. BTC remains choppy in the shorter time frame but looks bullish on the higher time frame. While most altcoins are following BTC's direction, a few are weak and underperforming. Tomorrow's U.S. unemployment rate announcement is a significant event that could induce more volatility in the market.”
