Bitcoin

<p>index has been climbing for five weeks straight, and Bitcoin itself has surged over 13% this week, indicating bullish aggression. Bitcoin&#39;s strength <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-bulls-chase-after-50k-opening-the-door-for-imx-kas-tia-an-stx-to-rally-higher" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">has lifted the spirits in the cryptocurrency sphere,</a> propelling altcoins like IMX, KAS, TIA, and STX upwards.</p><p>While Bitcoin continues to hog the limelight, some altcoins have begun to gain momentum. Let&#39;s take a peek at the charts of the top 5 cryptocurrencies that might exceed expectations shortly.</p><h2 id="header-0">IMX</h2><p>On February 10th, Immutable (IMX) broke through the $2.60 resistance, signaling a resurgence in the uptrend.</p><p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/64cc7a14e8ed41d5bce570bea3b3678d.png" />Source: <a href="https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol&#61;BINANCE%3ABTCUSDT" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">TradingView</a></p><p>However, the bears aren&#39;t likely to roll over so easily. They&#39;ll try to throw a serious challenge at the $2.85 level. If the price turns south and drops below $2.60, it&#39;ll suggest that the bullish momentum is weakening. Then, the IMX/USDT pair might tumble toward the 20-day EMA ($2.24). Bears will need to drag the price below the moving averages to signal a comeback.</p><p>On the flip side, if the bulls refuse to yield to the bears, it&#39;ll mean they&#39;re holding their ground, awaiting a breakthrough. If the $2.85 resistance is breached, the pair could surge to $3, and then to $3.50.</p><h2 id="header-1">KAS</h2><p>The bulls successfully defended the psychological support at $0.10 during the Kaspa (KAS) correction, indicating buys at lower levels.</p><p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/0f19d299fb1b4dfa929d1c1a2f0f504f.png" />Source: <a href="https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol&#61;BINANCE%3ABTCUSDT" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">TradingView</a></p><p>The KAS/USDT pair gained momentum after breaking above the moving averages on February 7th and reached a tough upper resistance around $0.15. Sellers will try their best to halt the upward movement at this level.</p><p>The first support on the downside is at $0.13. If this level holds, the likelihood of breaking above $0.15 increases. Then, the bulls will attempt to resume the uptrend. There&#39;s minor resistance at $0.16, but if we scale that up, the pair could hit $0.20.</p><h3 id="tia">TIA</h3><p>Celestia (TIA) has been riding the uptrend for a few days now, but the bulls are facing some stiff resistance at $20.40.</p><p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/66e98b2981d843d9bb8fd5fd196ea8ab.png" />Source: TradingView</p><p>The rising moving averages and the RSI in the positive zone suggest that buyers are still holding the reins. If the bulls don&#39;t back down from this level, it could brighten the prospects for a rally above $20.40. And if that happens, the TIA/USDT pair might just hit its next target at $25.</p><p>On the flip side, if the price takes a nosedive from here and breaks below the 20-day EMA ($18.01), it&#39;ll signal that the bulls are in a hurry to exit. In that case, the short-term trend might start favoring the bears upon breaching the 50-day SMA ($16.16).</p><h2 id="header-2">STX</h2><p>The Stacks (STX) 20-day EMA ($1.62) has started to rise, and the RSI has bounced near the overbought zone, indicating that the bulls are calling the shots. The STX/USDT pair might reach upper resistance at $2.06, which could likely pose a serious obstacle. If buyers manage to hurdle this barrier, the pair could shoot up to $3.</p><p>The 20-day EMA serves as a crucial support to watch on the downside. Bulls are expected to defend this level, but if the bears take the reins, the pair could plummet to $1.45.</p><p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/6a6c83c3b5864601a5484bbd192549bb.png" /><em>Source: TradingView</em></p><p>Bulls are buying the dip to the 20-EMA, but they&#39;re likely to face stiff resistance from the bears in the $2 to $2.06 zone. If the price turns south from the upper zone but finds support at the 20-EMA level, it&#39;ll increase the likelihood of breaking above the resistance. Then, the pair might resume its upward trend.</p><p>The first sign of weakness would be a breakthrough and close below the 20-EMA. That&#39;ll signal the bulls are losing their grip, and the pair might slide towards the 50-SMA.</p><h3 id="btc">BTC</h3><p>Risk assets have been on the rise for a few days now. The S&amp;P 500 index has been climbing for five weeks straight, and Bitcoin also shot up over 13% this week, indicating some bullish frenzy.</p><p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/4d4e0b9974bf4696b54b3ef3c532cede.png" /><em>Source: <a href="https://www.tradingview.com/chart/jDQu9g33/?symbol&#61;BINANCE%3AimxUSDT" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">TradingView</a></em></p><p>BitMEX Research data reveals that on February 9th, there was <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-etfs-hit-10b-milestone-just-month-after-approval" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">a whopping $2.7 billion inflow</a> into nine exchange-traded Bitcoin funds (ETFs), while outflows from the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) shrunk to $51.8 million.
