Bitcoin Analysis
Bitcoin’s price bounced on Tuesday +$522 and broke a streak of two straight days of selling that took BTC’s price lower by 7.6% over a 48 hour span.
The BTC/USD 1W chart below by XRP-Jonny shows BTC’s price trading inside a rising channel but at the bottom of that channel and forming a textbook bull flag. BTC’s price is trading between the 0.786 fibonacci level [$39,597.46] and the 0.702 fib level [$40,383.23].
The targets for bullish BTC traders are 0.702, 0.618 [$41,168.99] and 0.5 [$42,272.81].
For bearish traders, they’re looking to snap the 0.786 with candle close confirmation on the weekly timescale. A secondary target of 1 [$37,595.62] is next up for bearish traders with a third target of 1.618 [$31,814.61].

Ethereum Analysis
Ether’s price finished just marginally better than BTC’s price by percentage points on Tuesday and concluded its daily session +$49.57.
The ETH/USD 1W chart below from Griffin0318 shows Ether’s price trying to hold the $3k level on the weekly time frame.
If bullish Ether traders are unable to send ETH’s price back above the $3,600 level in the coming weeks and ETH’s price fails to hold its current trend line, it becomes increasingly probabilistic that a major breakdown to the downside could be forthcoming.
If that event occurs it could send Ether’s price back to a level near ETH’s former ATH of $1,300-$1,400.
Of course, if ETH bears do fail to push ETH’s price below the $3k level and bulls hold-on to that level as support and rally, a new all-time high for ETH could be the result.
