Technical Analysis: BTC, ETH, NEAR, ADA, FTM and AVAX (May W2)

Table of Contents

In this week’s analysis, we will stick to the 4-hour time frame to keep the analysis precise!

BTC/USDT

For Newbies

In our previous analysis, we had marked a triangle using two trendlines (red lines) that BTC was forming. We had mentioned that once the triangle is broken we could see a major move, the triangle was broken on Wednesday!

So what's next?

Since the triangle broke on the downside, it is looking like the bears are in control at the moment. It is very crucial for the bulls to strike back and push the price back into the triangle. If this does not happen, the price can head towards the next support (price floor) situated at $25,300

For Experts

After Bitcoin surged to $30,000 this week, the resistance proved to be too strong for the bulls which resulted in the price plunging to $27,000. A breakdown can be seen in the symmetrical triangle which is pointing towards a further drop. At the time of writing, the price is currently retesting the trendline, if this retest is successful expect the price to approach the next support at $25,300.

ETH/USDT

For Newbies

ETH was forming a triangle similar to that seen in the charts of Bitcoin.

A false breakout occurred after the triangle broke on the upside earlier this week. This means that it made it look like the price was bullish, however ETH ended up pulling back from $2,020 to $1,831!

ETH is now on the brink of a breakdown from the triangle which is why traders should be cautious at the moment!

For Experts

After a false breakout earlier this week, the price is on the verge of breaking down from the symmetrical triangle at $1,820. If this level is lost, expect the price to rapidly approach the next demand zone at $1,780! No hidden RSI divergences can be seen on the charts which is pointing towards a clear breakdown in price.
