Bitcoin's primary investors couldn't maintain momentum, leading BTC to touch a new low at $28,354 overnight. Explore the current market trends of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).
Bitcoin (BTC)
The downward trend on the BTC chart has extended its course, and the asset is currently trading within the defined support range of $28,350-$28,600. Should the correction intensify, BTC might test buyer levels at $28,000 and $27,600.
The immediate resistance is marked by the seller zone ranging from $28,770 to $28,900. This particular region is anticipated to elicit an initial response if a localized upward movement occurs. If buyers effectively breach this zone, the next resistance zones might lie at $29,150 and between $29,500-$29,750.
Given the neutral news backdrop and the current low volatility, the prevailing bias leans towards the continuation of the ongoing downward trend as the primary scenario.

Ethereum (ETH)
ETH has also recently hit a new local low, reaching the $1,781 mark. If Ethereum's descent persists, buying interest might emerge within the $1,725-$1,770 range, and particularly around the psychologically significant level of $1,700.
The nearest sell orders are currently clustered within the range of $1,820 to $1,831. Beyond this, resistance is observed between $1,852 to $1,865, and at the $1,880 mark. Ethereum's overall behavior is substantially influenced by its strong correlation with BTC. Consequently, any potential developments on the ETH chart are expected to be closely linked to the performance of the leading cryptocurrency.

The ongoing corrective movement in the crypto market unfolds within the confines of a local ascending trend. This trend was initiated when BTC managed to breach the significant $25,000 threshold. It's crucial to highlight that this specific level holds substantial importance, as it will wield a defining influence on the overarching sentiment and outlook of traders within the extended time frame.
