However, the previous day’s action reveals an emerging price pattern. Since the uptrend started, bitcoin had one day of little or no price changes, followed by one with notable improvement in price. If this holds, it will experience another bullish performance in the next 24 hours. The largest cryptocurrency will attempt its pivot point at $68,131.
The moving average convergence divergence is printing bullish signals. At the time of writing, the 12-day EMA is in contact with the 26-day EMA. With an impending bullish divergence on the horizon, the coin is set for further climb. The histogram associated with matric shows that the bears have almost lost initiative on the BTC as there is almost no selling pressure.
A few hours ago, many observers were shocked to see Grayscale only sold one bitcoin today. With one of the biggest sellers reducing its volume, the apex coin will register another notable move within the next five days.
2. Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum is printing a doji at the time of writing. It is currently struggling at $3,200 after it peaked at $3,260. The candle and price action illustrated the continuation a trend of a day with significant move and another with a doji. The trend has been in play since last Thursday and may continue as indicators are hinting further price increases.

However, ETH trading volume is down by over 7% in the last 24 hours. Nonetheless, MACD is displaying an incomplete bullish divergence which puts the bulls at an advantage. Although below 50, RSI is also on the rise and is at 47 .in response to buying pressure
The coin is currently trading at a critical level. The $3,200 served as a critical support where the bulls built demand concentration previously. Since losing it, the bears are staging selloff around the mark. Flipping and gaining stability above the said mark will result in an attempt at $3,400. However, there are strong indications of a small demand shock taking above $3,300.
3. Binance Coin (BNB)

The candlestick may also be an indication of an impending downtrend as the bulls agree grinding to a halt. Additionally, the asset is printing a bear flag following its previous trend.
The question is if the coin has peaked and if the declines will start this week. MACD is printing buy signals at this time.

These are indications of the continuation of the bullish action. Per previous price movement, BNB retraced from a resistance it flipped once in the last fourteen days. The bulls will look to flip this mark and attempt to gain stability above $625. This is another critical level where the bears stage significant selloffs.

4. Avalanche (AVAX)
Avalanche experienced significant price increases over the last seven days. As a result, it is up by over 15% over this period. There was no indication of fundamentals playing any significant role in the surge, which means it experienced the same bullish sentiment the crypto market saw at the time.
With a mixed general sentiment, AVAX is printing a red candle as it is down by over 2% in the last 24 hours. Using the Fibonacci retracement to draw up support and resistance, the coin will look to gain stability above $39 and attempt $40 within the next five days. However, RSI is on the downtrend and at 43, placing the bears at an advantage and hinting at mounting selling pressure.
Fibonacci retracement is hinting at a possible drop to $33. This will happen if the bulls fail to defend the $36 support.
