Bitcoin and Altcoins Showing Signs of Fresh Increase
Bitcoin price settled above the USD 11,000 support and it is currently trading in a range. Ethereum is up more than 6% and broke USD 300, while ripple price struggled above USD 0.400. TRX and ICX are up more than 10% today.
This past week, bitcoin and altcoins trimmed most gains and struggled to continue higher. BTC/USD failed to clear the USD 12,000 resistance and later declined below USD 11,000. However, the USD 10,500 level acted as support and recently the price rebounded above USD 11,200. Besides, ethereum price started a strong rise in the past few hours (08:00 UTC) and rallied above the USD 290 and USD 300 resistance levels. Ripple price also broke the USD 0.400 and USD 0.405 resistance, but it struggled to stay above the USD 0.400 pivot level. The overall market sentiment is slowly improving.
