Weekly Review: BTC ETH XRP BCH LTC

5 lis 2018

BTC/USD
Overview:
Bitcoin is in downtrend. All the highs and lows of the price have a decreasing trend, which is typical for the bear market. If the price of BTC / USD is lower than $5700, where the uptrend line is located (the trend was formed since March 2017), then the long-term reduction targets will be in the $4000- $3000 zone.

Current situation:
Bitcoin quotes traded near the $6400, $6450 resistance lines. If the price of BTC / USD will be able to overcome the level of $6450, then an increase to 6600-6800 is possible. With this, we will expect a drop to levels: $6100, $5700. Since the global trend remains downward, we do not recommend buying this asset.

Cancellation of the scenario may be caused by Bitcoin price increase above $6800.

Resistance levels: $6400; $6450; $6800; $6900; $7200; $7400.
Support levels: $6300; $6100; $5800; $5400; $4500.

Forecast:
Reduction of the price of BTC / USD from $6350 and objectives: $6100, $5700.

Also, we do not exclude the renewal of minimum prices in the $0.20- $0.15 zone.

Cancellation of the scenario may be caused by the growth of Ripple price above $0.50.
