An overview of BTC, ETH, XAUT, and S&P500 charts, and the current cryptocurrency market dynamics.
Bitcoin (BTC)
On the daily timeframe, Bitcoin appears ready to push toward new highs. For almost a week, the leading cryptocurrency has been trading near the $70,000 resistance level, suggesting that this price point may be the next target for buyers.
If BTC successfully establishes support above $70,000, there will be little to prevent it from setting a new all-time high.
Additionally, based on fundamental factors—namely, the upcoming U.S. presidential election—this could potentially happen after November 5.
Should a correction occur, Bitcoin may drop to the support range between $60,700 and $62,800, where buyers are likely to re-enter within the overall upward trend.

Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum buyers are showing weakness for now. Last week’s slight correction had a significant negative impact on ETH, keeping it in a sideways range between the support zone at $2,430–$2,470 and the resistance zone at $2,535–$2,565.
A sustained break above the resistance zone and a successful test of the next selling level at $2,619 could signal the resumption of an uptrend for Ethereum.

S&P 500 (SPX)
The major stock index is continuing its upward movement. Last week, it reached a new all-time high at $5,878, followed by a brief correction.
The index might temporarily dip to the $5,400–$5,600 range, potentially creating an ideal point for entering new long positions.

Tether Gold (XAUT)
Gold, moving in line with stock indexes, has shown no signs of correction for those looking to buy at a discount. Last week, XAUT reached a historic high of $2,868, even surpassing the physical gold price.
The $2,585–$2,620 support zone is an attractive range for accumulating long positions, with the likelihood of a deeper correction currently appearing very low.
