Bitcoin price

After another decline below USD 7,000, bitcoin price found support near the USD 6,850 level. As a result, BTC/USD started a strong rise and recovered above the USD 7,000 and USD 7,100 levels. The price even spiked above USD 7,200 and it is currently consolidating near the USD 7,250 resistance area.

On the upside, the main resistance is near the USD 7,350 level, above which bitcoin price might continue to rise towards the USD 7,550 barrier. On the downside, there are supports near USD 7,100 and USD 7,050.

Ethereum price

Ethereum price extended its decline below USD 128 and tested the USD 125 support. ETH/USD also started a decent recovery above USD 128 and it is currently trading near the USD 130 resistance. If there is a clear break above USD 130 and USD 132, there could be more gains towards the USD 135 resistance.

On the downside, the USD 128 level might act as a support. Any further losses may perhaps lead the price back towards the USD 125 support. The next major support is at USD 120.

Bitcoin cash, litecoin and XRP price

Bitcoin cash price traded close to the USD 190 level before it reversed its losses. BCH/USD is recovering and it is now trading above the USD 200 level.

XRP price tested the USD 0.185 support level before staging a rebound. XRP/USD corrected above the USD 0.188 level and it is now trading near USD 0.190. On the upside, the bulls need to clear the USD 0.192 resistance area to continue higher. On the downside, the key supports are near USD 0.185.
