Total market capitalization
Bitcoin price
There were positive movements in bitcoin price above the main USD 7,650 support level. BTC/USD traded above the USD 7,900 level recently, but it is facing a few key hurdles near the USD 8,000 and USD 8,050 levels. A convincing break above the USD 8,050 resistance level is likely to open the doors for a sharp upward move towards the USD 8,200 and USD 8,300 levels.
On the downside, an initial support is near the USD 7,800 level, below which the main support for the bulls is near the USD 7,650 level.
Ethereum price
Ethereum price is slowly moving higher and it is trading above the USD 245 and USD 242 support levels. If there is a downside break below USD 242, ETH/USD may perhaps test the USD 230 support area.
On the upside, an immediate resistance is at USD 255, above which the price could continue to rise towards the USD 265 level.
Bitcoin cash, eos and ripple price
Bitcoin cash price is still trading above the USD 400 support area. BCH/USD could start a decent upward move if it clears the USD 410 and USD 415 resistance levels. The next key resistances are near USD 422 and USD 425. On the downside, an immediate support is at USD 400, below which there is a risk of more losses towards the USD 385 support level.
EOS is currently above the USD 6.00 and USD 6.15 support levels. On the upside, a break above the USD 6.25 and USD 6.30 levels could start a strong upward move towards USD 6.50 or USD 6.60.
Ripple price struggled to gain pace above the USD 0.405 and USD 0.410 resistance levels. XRP/USD is currently trading below the USD 0.400 support area and it may soon test the USD 0.388 or USD 0.385 support. If there is a downside break below USD 0.380, there could be a strong decline to USD 0.350.
