EOS Could Be Very Attractive Soon

EOS (EOS)

EOS Market Cap: $12.51B

Circulating Supply; 896.15M EOS

Max Supply: 1B EOS

Volume (24h) $1.22B

Technical Analysis

EOS/USD dropped aggressively today after retesting a major dynamic resistance. It has erased the morning gains and it almost reached a static support. However, the crypto remains very attractive despite the last corrective phase. Today, it has dropped as all the major cryptocurrencies have decreased. Right now is very important for the crypto to stay above the 13.5000 psychological level because it will maintain a bullish perspective.


 

EOS could make a minor consolidation before it will jump higher. The rate needs more directional energy to be able to climb towards the 16.0000 psychological level. The rate dropped aggressively after the false breakout above the 250% line and above the warning line (wl2). EOS/USD has found a bottom on the median line (ML) of the descending pitchfork and on the median line (ml) of the ascending pitchfork.  The price retested the median line (ml) of the ascending pitchfork and has closed much above it signalling that we may have a reversal.

It has found a temporary resistance at the upper median line (uml) of the ascending pitchfork and at the upside 50% Fibonacci line (descending dotted line) of the descending pitchfork. You can see that it has retested the 50% line of the ascending pitchfork, closing much above it and above the 50% retracement level signalling a bullish pressure.

 Conclusion 

Personally, I believe that it will become strongly bullish after a valid breakout above the 250% Fibonacci line, above the upside 50% Fibonacci line of the descending pitchfork, above the upper median line (uml) and also above the 38.2% retracement level. The first upside target it will be at the WL2, but it could be attracted by the confluence area former between the UML and the first warning line (wl1).

ETP/BTC Potential Buy Opportunity Building?

ETP/BTC moves in range but you should be ready for a breakout from this extended sideways movement. Are you long or short on this pair?

Metaverse ETP (ETP)

Market Cap: $30.46M

Circulating Supply: 35.79M ETP

Max Supply: 100ETP

Volume (24h) $4.60M

ETP/USD = $0.85474

Technical Analysis

ETP/BTC continues to move sideways in the short term, so we should wait for a valid breakout so we can take action again. The rate has found a bottom at the 0.00007820 level and failed to reach it again in the last attempts, signalling a potential rebound.

The pair remains under pressure in the short term as long as it is trading below two important resistance levels.


 

You can see on the Daily chart that it has found a strong demand zone right below the downside 50% Fibonacci line of the descending pitchfork and now moves towards the median line (ML). The rate could continue to move sideways, but you should also be ready for a breakout. Right now we need to wait to see the breakout direction.

Right now it seems a little exhausted because it has failed to reach the median line (ML). Personally, I believe that we could have a great trading opportunity if the rate will pass above the median line (ML) and if it will stay there. A great buying opportunity will appear only after a valid breakout above the 0.00012860 static resistance.

Conclusion

It remains to be seen if this sideways movement will be an accumulation or a distribution. We should wait for a valid breakout and only then to open a position. You can buy it from above the 0.00012860 static resistance having a first target at the upside 50% Fibonacci line. A selling opportunity will appear after a valid breakdown from this pattern.

Incent Sell-Off?

Incent (INCNT)

Market Cap: $14.80M

Circulating Supply: 46.02M INCNT

Max Supply: 0 INCNT

Volume (24h) $46.57K

Technical Analysis

The rate increased today but is seems pressured in the short term. INCNT/USD climbed above the broken dynamic support, but I’m afraid that it will drop further in the short term. We may have a great selling opportunity if the rate will close below the 0.29524790 yesterday’s low and could drop much below the 0.20000000 psychological level.

Price is struggling to stay higher, but I’m afraid that the crypto market could turn to the downside again after the temporary rebound. The major cryptocurrencies have increased a little, but are signalling an exhaustion already, so Incent could drop as well if the other cryptocurrencies will slip lower.


 

You can see on the Daily chart that the price has found a strong resistance at the 0.42260400 level and now has slipped below the lower median line (lml) of the ascending pitchfork. It is pressuring the sliding line (sl) of the ascending pitchfork after the lower median line (lml) retest. A valid breakdown below the sliding line will confirm a drop for the upcoming period.

INCNT/USD could drop even if it will pass above the 150% line as long as it will stabilise below the sliding line (sl).

Conclusion

The price seems that it could drop from here because it has stayed too much on the sliding line (sl). You can sell it from below the 0.29524790 yesterday’s low and you could place the first target at the 0.15696000 level. The Stop Loss should be above the 0.42260400 static resistance.

Monero Further Drop On The Cards

Monero (XMR)

Market Cap: $2.57B

Circulating Supply: 16.1M XMR

Max Supply: 0 XMR

Volume (24h) $38.49M

Monero (XMR) Technical Analysis

Monero plunged today and erased the yesterday’s gains. The price maintains a bearish perspective on the short-term after today’s drop. The rate has failed to close above a dynamic resistance (support turned into resistance) and now it seems determined to challenge a major support area. A valid breakdown will signal a further drop.

All the major cryptocurrencies have dropped today signalling that the rebound could be temporary and the crypto market could resume the downside movement.


 

You can see that the rate has increased a little after the false breakdown below the 151.260 static support, but yesterday’s failure to close above the lower median line (lml) of the ascending pitchfork has signalled that the rate could resume the corrective movement.

We can go short on this cryptocurrency if it will make a valid breakdown below the 151.260 static support, and if it will close below the 145.810 former low. The price could stabilise below the first warning line (WL1) of the ascending pitchfork, which represents another bearish signal. It has also retested the minor uptrend line which represents the downside line of the triangle chart pattern.

Conclusion

You can sell Monero if the bearish scenario will be confirmed. The first downside targets will be at the 150% lines. The Stop Loss can be placed above the 177.780 yesterday’s high.

Can We Buy Ethereum Classic?

Ethereum Classic (ETC)

Market Cap; $1.57B

Circulating Supply: 101.96M ETC

Max Supply 0 ETC

Volume (24h) $ 130.57M

Technical Analysis

Ethereum Classic posted minor gains today and the upside is still uncertain.  The price has found temporary support in the short term and is now trying to bounce back. It is approaching a very important dynamic resistance, so a valid breakout could attract more buyers.

ETC/USD has shown some oversold signs on the daily chart, so we can start thinking about another leg higher if the rate will validate our scenario.


 

As you can see, the rate dropped but it has made two false breakdowns below the downside 50% Fibonacci line of the major descending pitchfork, signalling that the buyers can step in again. The increase is very fragile, but I hope that a valid breakout above the 150% Fibonacci line of the minor descending pitchfork will open the door for more gains.

I’ve drawn a minor ascending pitchfork hoping that I’ll catch the next upside movement, so a retest of the lower median line (lml) followed by a significant increase will announce a bullish momentum. The rate stays much above the 13.046 static support. You can place your Stop Loss below this level if you go long on this crypto.

The last drop was expected after the false breakout above the median line (ML) of the major descending pitchfork.

Conclusion

A valid breakout above the 150% line will signal a further increase in the upcoming period. The next upside target will be at the median line (ML) of the major descending pitchfork. The 13.046 level could represent an invalidation level, a valid breakdown below it will confirm a further drop.

XEM/BTC Finally Poised To Bounce?

NEM (XEM)

Market Cap: $2.31B

Circulating Supply: 9.00B XEM

Max Supply: 0 XEM

Volume (24h) $ 17.15M

XEM/USD = $0.25736

Technical Analysis

XEM/BTC increased today and has resumed the last day’s humble gains. The price remains under selling pressure in the short term because it is still located below some very important resistance levels. A valid breakout above the near term resistance levels will bring us a great buying opportunity. The crypto pair dropped in the short term as the crypto market retreated.

The crypto market has shown some recovery signs in the last days, but we still need a confirmation that the major crypto will increase again.


 

You can see that the rate has found temporary support on the minor uptrend line and on the 50% Fibonacci line of the minor descending pitchfork. We can go long on this pair only after a valid breakout above the minor downtrend line and above the median line (ml) of the minor descending pitchfork. XEM/BTC failed to drop towards the 0.00002857 static support, signalling that the bears could be exhausted in the short term.

Price could continue to move sideways in the short term and could reach the 150% Fibonacci line of the major ascending pitchfork. The rate also failed to approach and retest the 50% Fibonacci line of the major descending pitchfork.

It could move towards the median line (ml) of the major descending pitchfork if it will make a valid breakout from the minor triangle (chart pattern).

Conclusion

We may have a great long opportunity if the rate will have enough energy to stay above the 0.00002857 static support and if it will jump and will stabilise above the median line (ml) of the minor descending pitchfork. We’ll have an important target at the median line (ml) of the major descending pitchfork.

NEOS/BTC Throwback?

NeosCoin (NEOS)

Market Cap: $10.66M

Circulating Supply: 3.81M NEOS

Max Supply: 0 NEOS

Volume (24H) $292.10K

NEOS/USD = $4.2753

Technical Analysis

NEOS/BTC is trading right above a major support area, that’s why we can think of another rebound soon. It remains to see what will really happen because the rate could drop further and could invalidate a bullish scenario.

The crypto pair has changed little in the short term and after the last two breakout attempts above the near term resistance levels. Right now you should stay away until we’ll really have a confirmation that the rate will increase again.


 

Price moves somehow sideways on the Daily chart and has developed a triangle, but this pattern is far from being complete. The rate hovers above the major support area between the 0.00033923 and the 0.00026639.

NEOS/BTC could turn to the upside as long as it stays above this support zone. It has failed to reach and retest the downside 50% Fibonacci line of the descending pitchfork signalling a minor oversold.

Technically, it should approach the first warning line (WL1) of the ascending pitchfork after the breakdown below the 150% Fibonacci line. So, a test and retest of the WL1 could send the rate higher on the short term, but only a valid breakout above the median line (ml) of the descending pitchfork will signal a broader rebound.

 Conclusion

The price should start another upside movement if the WL1 and the 0.00026639 support levels will hold. A valid breakout above the median line (ml) will signal an increase at least until the upside 50% Fibonacci line and towards the downtrend line.

Bitcoin Keeps Bleeding, The Next Days Are Crucial

Crypto Price Predictions: Bitcoin is trading in the red and resumes yesterday’s bearish candle. If you’ll read my editorials you’ll see that I’ve talked about a retreat after the temporary rebound. The crypto has failed to make a valid breakout above the near-term resistance levels, that’s why the bears have taken the lead and are driving the price down.

Everyone wants to know what will happen with Bitcoin because a major drop will drag the other cryptocurrencies down. Bitcoin approaches two crucial support levels, a valid breakdown will signal a further drop towards fresh new lows.

As I’ve mentioned in the previous weeks, we may have another drop before the rate will really start a broader upside movement. Bitcoin needs to recapture more directional energy to be able to increase again and to give birth to a major leg higher.



 

Bitcoin drops after the failure to breakout above the red downtrend line and above the third warning line (wl3) of the former descending pitchfork. Actually, we had a strong confluence formed by the wl3 with the downtrend line and with the SL2.

The price failed to stay above the 50% Fibonacci line, so the current retreat is natural. It remains to see how long it will be because it has tried to take out the dynamic resistance from the third warning line (wl3).

The next hours will tell us if today’s drop will represent only a retest of the broken warning line (wl3). It approaches the lower median line (LML), where it could find temporary support. The major downside target remains at the outside sliding parallel line (SL). I’ve said that it could come back down to test and retest the mentioned support levels before it will climb higher again.

However, a valid breakdown below the SL will confirm a further drop towards the 5000 psychological level.

You can notice that Bitcoin is trapped within a triangle, so only a breakout from this pattern will give us a great trading opportunity. Personally, I would like to see a false breakdown below the LML or below the SL and a failure to reach the downside line of the chart pattern, then we could think about a broader upside movement.

A major upward movement will be confirmed by a valid breakout above the downtrend line. Another leg higher will bring us great returns if we’ll go long on Bitcoin after a valid breakout above the red downtrend line. This scenario will take shape only if the sliding parallel line (SL) will hold.

Crypto Price Predictions Conclusion

You should stay away for now because anything could happen in the short term. Personally, I believe that we may have a great trading opportunity soon. Right now we have to let the market to play its role and to step in only after a confirmation.

Is This Really The End Of The Crypto Market Rebound?

The Crypto Market Rebound: The crypto market has reached an important supply area and now has turned to the downside again. It remains to see how larger the corrective phase will be. Technically, a minor decrease was expected on all cryptocurrencies after the impressive upside movement.

There are all kinds of rumours that said that the crypto market will crash again and will reach fresh new lows. Personally, I still believe that the major cryptocurrencies could resume the upside movement and could reach fresh new highs.

Please take a look at one of my editorials (Is the crypto market sell-off natural?), and you will notice that I have talked about a correction on the cryptocurrencies. The rates need to accumulate more directional energy to be able to resume the upside movement.

All main cryptocurrencies have started an important rebound in the short term, but we still need a confirmation that may increase in the medium to the long-term again. That is why we need a corrective phase followed by an accumulation or maybe an extended sideways movement before we can say for sure that we may have a major upside movement.

I believe that the next major upside movement will be slower because the fundamental factors are very strong. We may have a rough period on the crypto market with all the regulation talks.

You should know that some cryptocurrencies could drop significantly and could die even if the crypto market returns to its bullish condition because not all projects are viable. The cryptocurrencies were driven higher by the bullishness of the overall crypto market, but this could change in the future.

Bitcoin


 

Bitcoin dropped after another false breakout above the 50% Fibonacci line and after the failure to close above the third warning line. The price will drop much more only if will close and will stabilize below the sliding line (SL1). The rate could move towards the lower median line (LML) and towards the outside sliding line (SL) if the WL3 resistance will hold.

A further increase will be invalidated only by a drop below the outside sliding line (SL). However, we could go long on this crypto after a valid breakout above the WL3 and above the 50% Fibonacci line.

Ethereum


Ethereum has declined after the failure to reach the median line (ML) of the ascending pitchfork. The drop was somehow expected after the impressive breakout above the first warning line (WL1) of the descending pitchfork. The price has come back down to retest the broken WL1 of the descending pitchfork and now could increase again.

We may have another bullish movement as long as the rate stays above the WL1 and the 50% Fibonacci line (ascending dotted line). You should know that we will have a larger upside movement only after a valid breakout above the median line (ML).

Conclusion

You have noticed that the minor retreats were natural in the short term. Right now you don’t have to worry that the crypto market will crash again. Personally, I believe that only the fundamental factors could send the major cryptocurrencies down again. Otherwise, they should push up in the upcoming period.

SNT/USD – could we have a larger upside movement?

Status (SNT)

Market Cap: $588.30M

Circulating Supply: 3.47B SNT

Max Supply: 0 SNT

Volume (24h) $66.63M

 

The SNT/USD is trading in the green right now but it remains to see how long for, after the last false breakout above a crucial resistance level. Price maintains a bullish perspective in the short term as long as it is trading above the crucial support line.

The crypto price went up and is signalling that the bulls are still present in the game after the last drop. We still have to wait for a confirmation that the rate will increase further.

SNT/USD is trading

The SNT/USD has once again failed to make a valid breakout above the downside 50% Fibonacci line of the ascending Pitchfork and now has come back down to retest the 150% Fibonacci line.

The price has made a false breakdown below the 150% Fibonacci line and has closed above it, signalling that we could have further price increases. The rate approaches the 0.18600 previous highs. It will reach it only after a valid breakout above the lower median line (LML).

A larger upside movement will be confirmed by a valid breakout above the downside 50% Fibonacci line (ascending dotted line between the ML and the LML). If this scenario takes shape, then the rate would jump much above the median line (ML) as well, with a target at the upper median line (UML).

Conclusion

If you are long on this crypto, you should keep your position as long as the rate stays above the 150% Fibonacci line. We have an important upside target at the 23.6% retracement level. A valid breakout above this level will really signal a broader upside movement.

Bitcoin Increase Was Invalidated For Now

Bitcoin (BTC)

Market Cap. $152.98B

Circulating Supply: 17.01M BTC

Max Supply: 21M BTC

Volume (24h) $8.43B

 

BTC/USD dropped aggressively today and resumed the yesterday’s bearish candle. The crypto failed to take out a crucial resistance level and Bitcoin value now could drop significantly in the short term. Right now is premature to talk about a larger drop in the short term because this could be only a temporary drop. Price could try to accumulate more energy before will really start a larger increase.

Bitcoin Value Now

I talked about the Bitcoin two weeks ago (Bitcoin long, the most expected setup) and I’ve signaled a minor drop in the short term before the rate will really start a larger upside movement. I’ve said that the rate could come down after the breakout above the WL2 of the ascending pitchfork and could retest the lower median line (lml) or the outside sliding line (sl).

BTC/USD increased, but has failed to make a valid breakout above the 50% Fibonacci line (ascending dotted line) and above the 23.6% retracement level.

A valid breakdown below the inside sliding line (sl) will lead the rate towards the 350% line and towards the lower median line (lml). I’ve told you that we may have a great buying opportunity from the lower median line (lml) or after the retest of the outside sliding line (sl).

Personally, I was expecting a drop from 50% Fibonacci line or from the median line (ml) of the ascending pitchfork because was hard to believe that we’ll have a larger upside movement towards the 15000 level without a corrective phase.

Conclusion

The conditions haven’t changed too much. We’ll have an excellent buying opportunity if the rate comes down to test the lower median line (lml) of the sliding line (sl). You could go long also if the rate makes a valid breakout above the 50% Fibonacci line and above the WL3.

The first upside target will be at the median line (ml), the next one at the upside 50% Fibonacci line and a crucial one at the upper median line.

Verge – is this a buy or a sell?

Verge (XVG)

Market Cap. $1.02B

Circulating Supply: 14.94B XVG

Max Supply: 16.56B XVG

Volume (24h) $51.78M

 

Verge (XVG) Price Prediction:

XVG/USD moves sideways in the short term and seems undecided. Verge price is trading in the red right now and resumed the yesterday’s bearish candle. It is pressuring a dynamic support so that a valid breakdown will bring us a selling opportunity.

However, we may have a buying opportunity if the rate will have enough bullish energy to jump and stabilize above a dynamic resistance. I will show you two potential scenarios, a selling one, and a buying opportunity.

Verge (XVG) Price Prediction:

The rate could drop significantly if will close below the lower median line (LML) of the ascending pitchfork and if will come higher to retest it and the sliding line (sl) or the 505 Fibonacci line (descending dotted line).

So, it could drop at least till the median line (ml), a valid breakdown will send the rate towards the 0.02331280 former low and towards the lower median line (lml).

 

I’ve added another Daily chart to show you what could happen if the rate will remain within the ascending pitchfork’s body. XVG/USD it should climb much higher in the upcoming period if it will jump and will close above the sliding line (sl) and the 50% Fibonacci line (descending dotted line).

The last corrective phase could be completed, and the rate could approach and reach fresh new highs if the LML will hold and will keep the rate within the ascending pitchfork’s body.

Conclusion

The corrective phase was natural after the false breakout above the ML of the ascending Pitchfork and after the failure to close near this line. You can go short on this crypto if it makes a valid breakdown below the LML of the ascending pitchfork.

We may have a buying opportunity if the rate will climb above the sliding line (sl). The upside targets will be at the upper median line (uml), at the median line (ML) and much higher at the UML.

EDO/BTC Breakout In Play

Eidoo (EDO)

Market Cap. $81.26M

Circulating Supply: 29.26M EDO

Max Supply: 0 EDO

Volume (24h): $11.77M

The EDO/BTC rallied today and resumed the yesterday’s impressive increase. Price increased as much as 0.00027700 level where it has found a temporary resistance. The rate has reached two very important and crucial resistance levels.

The pair seems determined to increase further and to jump in the buyer’s territory. EDO/BTC is pressuring a resistance zone, so we have to wait for a valid breakout before we take action again. We had a great buying opportunity in the previous days, so, now we have to wait for another one.

Eidoo Price Chart (EDO/BTC)

Eidoo price increased aggressively after the failure to retest the 0.00022195 static support and the inside sliding line (sl1) of the ascending pitchfork. You can see that the rate has finally managed to close above the second sliding parallel line (sl2) and now has reached the median line (ml) of the ascending pitchfork and the upper median line (UML) of the major descending pitchfork.

It remains to see how the rate will react in the upcoming hours, but you should know that a breakout is favored after the failure to close near the 50% Fibonacci line of the descending pitchfork in the last retest attempt.

A valid breakout above the UML will signal a further increase, while a valid breakout above the median line (ml) will confirm that the EDO/BTC is strongly bullish and it should approach the upper median line (uml) and the first warning line (WL1) of the descending pitchfork. We have an important upside target at the 0.00040010 swing high as well.

Conclusion

You could still go long on this crypto pair if the rate will close and will stabilize above the median line (ml) of the ascending pitchfork. You should wait for the rate to make another low in the upcoming period where you’ll place the stop loss.

Zcash Breakout Still In Cards

Zcash (ZEC)

Market Cap. $1.12B

Circulating Supply:3.79M ZEC

Max Supply: 0 ZEC

Volume (24h) $ 64.10M

 

The ZEC/USD dropped today and erased some of the yesterday’s gains. Price remains under pressure after the last false breakout and because is still trapped below some crucial resistance levels. The has found a temporary resistance, but we could see another breakout attempt soon.

Zcash rose by 4.17% today and by 10.80% in the last 7 days. We need a confirmation that the crypto will start a larger upside movement.

Zcash (ZEC) chart

The rate is trapped within a Falling Wedge pattern after the false breakout above the upside line of this pattern. ZEC/USD has also made a false breakout above the 23.6% retracement level and above the 50% Fibonacci line (ascending dotted line), so the minor decrease is natural.

It will drop towards the lower median line (lml) of the ascending pitchfork if the downtrend line will hold. A valid breakout above the upside line of the chart pattern will signal a further increase, but only a valid breakout above the 50% Fibonacci line will confirm a sharp increase in the upcoming weeks and months.

The ZEC/USD further increase could be invalidated only if the rate will drop and will stabilize outside the ascending pitchfork’s body.

Conclusion

We may have a buying opportunity after the breakout above the downtrend line and above the 23.6% retracement level, but only if the rate will stay above the lower median line (LML) of the ascending pitchfork. The next major upside target will be at the median line (ML) of the ascending pitchfork.

ZEC/BTC Long Trading Setup

ZEC/BTC

ZEC/BTC changed little today and seemed undecided on the short term. The cryptocurrency pair dropped in the last two days as the crypto market crashed. It remains to see what will really happen in the upcoming days because the rate is still under some pressure.

We may have a great buying opportunity if the rate will come back down to test and retest some very important support levels. It is trading at 0.03192501 after the failure to reach the 0.03500000 psychological level.

ZEC/BTC Charts - Forex Academy

The last corrective phase was expected after the failure to stabilize above the median line (ML) of the ascending pitchfork and after the valid breakdown below the downside 50% Fibonacci line. ZEC/BTC increase a little, but this could be only temporary if will fail to stay above the median line (ml) of the minor descending pitchfork.

The pair has shown an oversold when has failed to approach and reach the lower median line (lml) of the minor descending Pitchfork.

We’ll have a great buying opportunity if the price makes a minor consolidation in the upcoming days and if will continue to stay above the median line (ml) and above the first warning line (WL1) of the ascending pitchfork.

Conclusion

The rate is somehow expected to increase further after the breakout above the median line (ml). Price has come to retest the broken dynamic resistance. The rate could increase from here and could jump above the 50% Fibonacci line (descending dotted line), but personally, I would like to see a minor decrease and a consolidation before will climb much higher.

Bitcoin Cash Long Again?

Market Cap. $21.76B

Circulating Supply: 17.09M BCH

Max Supply: 21M BCH

Volume (24%) $1.95B

 

Bitcoin Cash (BCH)

The BCH/USD signaled an exhaustion since yesterday, so the current drop is somehow natural. Price dropped as much as 1227 today and now is pressuring a very strong dynamic support (resistance turned into support). We could have a great buying opportunity in the upcoming days if the rate will test and retest the near-term support levels and will stay above.

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) chart

The rate has finally managed to break above the 50% Fibonacci line of the descending pitchfork and now is retesting it. Price has shown an oversold when has failed to stabilize below the median line (ML) after many breakdown attempts.

Technically, the BCH/USD it was expected to approach and reach the upper median line (UML) of the descending pitchfork. Right now is very important to see if we’ll have a valid breakout above the 50% Fibonacci line  (descending dotted line).

Bitcoin Cash could drop in the upcoming days after the failure to close on the 250% Fibonacci line and near the 1567 static resistance.

Price has also made a false breakout above the 23.6% retracement level, which has signaled an exhaustion. It could drop along the 50% Fibonacci line till will reach and retest the upper median line (uml) of the ascending pitchfork or even the median line (ml).

Conclusion

You can go long again after the retests and after a significant increase. It could climb at least till the upper median line (UML) if will have enough energy to make a valid breakout above the sliding line (SL).

Qtum Crucial Breakout Eyed

Qtum (QTUM)

Market Cap. $1.92B

Circulating Supply: 88.55M QTUM

Max Supply: 0 QTUM

Volume (24h): $231.36M

 

QTUM/USD increased and resumed yesterday’s bullish candle. It went up by more than 4.4% today, and the bullish movement should continue. The crypto is trading near an important resistance area, so you should wait for a valid breakout.

qtum price chart

The current increase is natural and it was expected after the breakout above the minor downtrend line. It has shown an oversold when has failed to approach and reach the 10.74387040 swing low. Qtum price increased again after many retests of the upper median line (UML) of the descending pitchfork.

Right now is premature to talk about a more significant increase as long as the rate is trapped below the first warning line (WL1) of the descending pitchfork and below the 21.75638400 static resistance.

Personally, I want to see a valid breakout above the  WL1 followed by a lower median line (lml) retest to be sure that it will increase at least till the 50% Fibonacci line (ascending dotted line).

A further increase will be invalidated by a valid breakdown below the outside sliding parallel line (sl) of the ascending pitchfork. You should be careful because we don’t have a valid breakout above the lower median line (lml).

It has made a false one in the last days, so we need a confirmation that it will stabilize above the lower median line (lml). You should know that only a valid breakout above the 50% Fibonacci line will confirm an increase towards the median line (ml) and towards the 38.2% retracement level.

qtum chart - forex academy

QTUM/USD reached a dynamic resistance represented by the inside sliding parallel line (sl2). It will be very important for the rate to close above this dynamic obstacle because another rejection could send the price towards the outside sliding line (sl1).

QTUM Price Prediction Conclusion:

If you decide to go long from above the 23.00000000 psychological level, then you should place a Stop Loss somewhere below the 18.00000000 level. The crypto market has shown signs of life as the major cryptocurrencies have registered significant gains in the last days, but you should be very careful because this could still be only a temporary rebound.

ICON (ICX) Buying Opportunity?

ICON (ICX)

Market Cap. $1.27B

Circulating Supply 387.23M ICX

Crypto Max Supply: 0 ICX

Volume (24h): $50.43M

ICX tradingview:

ICX/USD increased today as much as 3.544012 level but failed to stay above the 3.4807593 yesterday’s high and now is showing some exhaustion signs. The last hour’s drop could be natural after the impressive rally. It could test and retest the broken resistance level before will move towards new highs.

ICX tradingview

The ICX/USD has finally managed to break out above the minor downtrend line and to jump above the lower median line (LML) of the ascending pitchfork again. It remains to see if this will be a valid breakout. The breakout above the minor downtrend line has signaled that we may have a larger rebound. Personally, I want to see if the rate will stabilize above the lower median line (LML) of the ascending pitchfork before I go long again.

We’ll have a great buying opportunity if the rate comes back down trying to retest the outside sliding line (SL2) before will stabilize within the ascending pitchfork’s body. The first significant upside target will be at the inside sliding parallel line (SL1). A valid breakout above this dynamic obstacle will lead the rate towards the median line (ML) and the upper median line (UML) in the upcoming months if the technical factors continue to drive the crypto market.

ICON buying opportunity

I’ve drawn on the H4 chart a perfect bullish scenario. Right now is risky to go long as the rate is far away from the near-term support levels. You can go long now, but only if you place a large Stop Loss somewhere below the 2.3562634 level, or you could wait for a retreat towards the SL2 and only them to buy the ICX/USD with a minor Stop Loss below the sliding line (SL2).

Ethereum Long Setup

Ethereum (ETH)

Market Cap. $56.68B

Circulation Supply: 98.93M ETH

Max Supply: 0 ETH

Volume (24h)

Ethereum (ETH) is the second most important crypto after the Bitcoin, so all the investors and traders are watching it closely. The rate has managed to increase in the last days as expected and now is almost to make a crucial breakout.

Ethereum (ETH) - Forex Academy

Ethereum is trading at $584 now and seems determined to climb much higher. It has reached the upper median line (UML) of the descending pitchfork. The UML represents a strong dynamic resistance, so only a valid breakout above it will signal a further increase.

The rate has breakout above the 565.44 static resistance as well as the bulls are in full control. I’ve drawn an ascending pitchfork hoping that I’ll catch the next major upside movement. We had a great buying opportunity after the rate has retested the lower median line (lml), near the $400 level. Personally, I still believe that we may have another buying opportunity soon if the rate will make a valid breakout above the UML. The major upside targets are at the median line (ML) and the upper median line (UML) of the ascending pitchfork. It could approach and reach these levels as long as it is trading within the ascending pitchfork’s body.

ethereum setup

You can see on the H4 chart that the rate has jumped above the UML and approaches the next dynamic resistance represented by the downside 50% Fibonacci line (ascending dotted line). Technically, we could see a minor drop in the upcoming days after the impressive upside movement. A retest of the broken UML and a valid breakout above the 50% Fibonacci line will really confirm a further increase towards the median line (ml) and towards the upper median line (uml) in the upcoming weeks and months.

Ripple Breakout In Play

  • Ripple breakout needs confirmation.
  • ETP/USD still under pressure.
  • EOS could resume the short-term rebound.

 

The major cryptocurrencies have found a temporary resistance in the yesterday’s trading session and have slipped lower. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple are still expected to climb much higher in the upcoming period, despite the minor retreat. I’ve said in the yesterday’s daily report that the main cryptos could come back down to test and retest some support levels before will start to increase again.

Ripple

The coin changed little in the early morning, but this decrease is natural after the breakout above a dynamic resistance. Ripple is trading at 0.65254 right now and could register an impressive upside movement after the integration with banks and traditional financial institutions.

Ripple dropped by 2.62%, but personally, I’m still expecting to see a bullish momentum soon as the rate has managed to jump in the buyer’s territory.

Ripple breakout in play

Price has finally managed to break out above the downtrend line. However, the breakout needs confirmation because this could be a false one if the rate will drop significantly in the upcoming hours.

Ripple increased in the last days from the 0.45410 low and after the minor accumulation. It is premature to talk about a larger upside movement as long the Bitcoin and Ethereum are still sluggish.

The rate is trading much above the 0.57210 static support (resistance has turned into support) and above the lower median line (lml) of the ascending pitchfork. Ripple could come back down to test the lower median line (lml). A rejection from this dynamic support or a false breakdown will send the rate towards the median line (ml). Minor resistance could be found at the downside 50% Fibonacci line as well. You should know that the perspective remains bullish on the short term as long as the rate remains within the ascending pitchfork’s body.

EOS/USD

The EOS increased by 4.12%, reaching the $8.60 again after the minor corrective phase. We have a $6 866 517 270 market capitalization and a $626 057 000 daily trading volume. The crypto could become strongly bullish soon.  We may have a great trading opportunity on the EOS/USD if the price will have enough directional energy to stabilize somewhere above the 10.00 psychological level.

EOS/USD - Forex Academy

EOS/USD rallied today and reached the median line (ml) of the ascending pitchfork. It has come down to retest the broken upper median line (UML) of the major descending pitchfork and now tries to resume the upside movement.

A valid breakout above the median line (ml) and above the 9.00 psychological level will signal a further increase. Technically, it will be expected to climb towards the upper median line (uml) if it will close above the $10 level. EOS could find temporary resistance at the 50% Fibonacci line and at the 150% Fibonacci line.

ETP/USD

Metaverse increased by 57.52% in the last 7-days, but unfortunately, it remains under some selling pressure. Price failed to reach and retest two important resistance levels and now slipped below the 1.00 psychological level.

ETP/USD - Forex Academy

ETP/USD registered humble gains today and could resume the yesterday’s bearish candle. Price moves in a range between the 0.5705 and 1.1105 levels. It has failed to reach the lower median line (lml) and the 1.1105 level, signaling a minor exhaustion and a potential drop.

Only a valid breakout from the minor sideways movement and above the lower median line (lml) will confirm a significant increase.

Conclusion

XRP/USD, EOS/USD and the ETP/USD have decreased in the yesterday’s trading session and now are fighting hard to stay higher. We need confirmations all the analyzed crypto pairs before we can say for sure that the rates will reach fresh new highs.
