Bitcoin price

After a steady move above USD 68,000, bitcoin price corrected lower. BTC declined below the USD 68,000 support level. However, downsides were limited and the price is consolidating near USD 67,600. An immediate support is near the USD 67,200 level. The next key support is near the USD 67,000 level. If there is a downside break below USD 67,000, the price might slide towards USD 65,000.

An immediate hurdle on the upside is near the USD 68,200 level. The next key resistance is forming near the USD 68,500 level, above which the price could test USD 70,000.

Ethereum price

Ethereum price is following a bullish path above the USD 4,750 level. ETH could aim for an upside break above the USD 4,850 and USD 4,900 resistance levels. A clear break above the USD 4,900 level could lift the price towards the USD 5,000 level. The next major resistance is near the USD 5,200 level. 

If there is a downside correction, the price might find support near USD 4,720. The next major support is now forming near the USD 4,650 level.

ADA, BNB, SHIB, SOL, and XRP price

Cardano (ADA) started a fresh rally above the USD 2.05 resistance. There was a clear break above USD 2.12 and USD 2.20. It seems like the price might continue to rise towards the USD 2.50 level.

Binance coin (BNB) is struggling to settle above the USD 550 level. To start a fresh increase, BNB must gain strength above USD 550 and USD 555. The next stop could be USD 580. If not, the price might slide towards the USD 525 support.

SHIB is facing resistance near the USD 0.0000580 zone. A clear break above the USD 0.0000580 level may perhaps pump the price towards USD 0.0000600 level. Conversely, there might be a downside correction towards the USD 0.0000535.

Solana (SOL) is consolidating below the USD 250 resistance. A convincing close above USD 250 could start a fresh rally. In this case, the price might rise towards USD 280. On the downside, the bulls may possibly remain active near the USD 232 level.

XRP price is stuck near the USD 1.250 level. An immediate resistance is near the USD 1.265 level. The next major hurdle is near USD 1.280, above which the price might rise to test USD 1.30.
