Bitcoin and Altcoins Technical Update
Bitcoin’s momentum looks positive, trading above $92,000 with bullish signals from the MACD indicator. A break above $94,150 may lead to a rise toward $96,466, the 50-day moving average. Bulls need to keep this level as support to target $100,000. However, the RSI is below 50, signaling possible weakening momentum and risk of a drop below $90,000.
Ethereum trades just above $3,200 but below key moving averages, showing a bearish trend. The MACD is close to turning bullish, supported by recent buy signals. The RSI at 54 suggests some short-term strength. A close above the 50-day moving average at $3,310 could help push prices higher. Failing that, Ethereum may fall toward $3,000.
XRP remains near $2.00 but below several moving averages, indicating a bearish stance. The MACD is weak, with neutral momentum shown by small green bars. The RSI at 42 suggests limited upward moves. A close above $2.24 is needed to ease selling pressure. Otherwise, sellers may keep XRP under control below key resistance levels.
