Total market capitalization

Bitcoin price

There was a sharp rebound in bitcoin price from the USD 5,750 support level. BTC/USD broke many resistances near USD 5,850 to settle above the USD 6,000 resistance area. The upward move was strong, as the price even broke the last swing high and traded to a new 2019 above USD 6,100.

The price traded close to the USD 6,140 level on Binance and it is currently consolidating gains. An immediate support is at USD 6,080, below which the price may test the USD 6,020 support level. On the upside, the main hurdles are near USD 6,180 and USD 6,200.

Ethereum price

Ethereum price moved back above the USD 170 support level and it is currently consolidating in a range. An immediate resistance is at USD 172, above which the price might test the USD 175 resistance area.

Conversely, if the price fails to stay above the USD 170 support, there is a risk of a downside break towards the USD 165 support in the short term.

Bitcoin cash, eos and ripple price

Bitcoin cash price seems to be consolidating above the USD 285 support level, with an immediate resistance at USD 290. If BCH/USD starts a strong upward move above USD 290, it could test the key USD 300 resistance level. On the downside, an initial support is at USD 285, below which there is a risk of a break towards the USD 275 level.

EOS is facing a strong resistance near the USD 4.95 and USD 5.00 resistance levels. The price might correct in the short term, but the USD 4.80 level is likely to provide support and act as a buy zone.

Ripple price remained in a bearish zone below the USD 0.300 level. XRP/USD recovered after testing USD 0.295, but it still facing a lot of hurdles near the USD 0.300 and USD 0.302 resistance levels. On the downside, the key supports are at USD 0.296 and USD 0.295.
