Bitcoin is stable in a short term sideways trend, however Ripple broke the 100 week moving average risking further losses. Can Ethereum save the crypto bulls with a bounce from the 500 day moving average?

Bitcoin shorts at resistance at 40100/300 did retest the March low at 37500/37000, with a low for the day exactly here. Next target is 36000 with the important 100 week moving average at 35900/700.

A break below 35500 is a MAJOR SELL SIGNAL. First stop is 28900/700. Gains are likely to be limited with strong resistance at 40000/40200. Shorts need stops above 41000.

Ripple holding below the 100 week moving average at 6650/6600 is a disaster for bulls as predicted as we hit my targets of 6220/00, then 5800 before a retest of the 2022 low at 5525/5475. I do not see this as support that can hold for long. Next target is 5100/5080. Gains are likely to be limited with resistance at 6160/90 and 6450/6500.

Ethereum was strong support at 2800/2750. A break below and hold below 2700 is a medium term sell signal targeting 2640, 2600, 2570 and 2500 (just to start with). Holding strong support at 2800/2750 allows a recovery to strong resistance at 2950/3000. Shorts need stops above 3050.

Bulls need prices to hold above 3000 if they are to get back in the game, initially targeting 3100 & 3150...we need a break above 3200 for a clearer run to 3400/3450.
