Bitcoin bottomed exactly at best support for this week at 43900/600. Longs worked perfectly on the bounce to 47000 this morning.

Ripple staging a choppy recovery through resistance at 11850/12000 to the next target of 12450/12500.

Ethereum longs at our buying opportunity at 2970/50 worked and we bottomed exactly here this morning again.

Today’s Analysis

Bitcoin longs at 43900/600 target 45000/300 and minor resistance at 46150/450.

Above 47000 can retest 48190. Further gains eventually target 49400/500 then 50500/51000.

Best support at 43900/600. Longs need stops below 42900. A break lower is a sell signal targeting 41000/40500 and 39500, probably as far as 38000.

Ripple through resistance at 11850/12000 to target 12450/12500 before a retest of 13450/490. A break higher targets 13615, 14410, 14540 and 14660.

First support at 11540/510. Further losses target 10850 before strong support at 10350/10100. A break below 10000 risks a slide to 9350/9300.

Ethereum longs at our buying opportunity at 2970/50 worked perfectly as we bounce to minor resistance at 3180/3210 for some profit taking. A break higher retests 3325/35. Above 3350 targets 3400 and above here is a buy signal initially targeting 3580/3600.

A buying opportunity at 2970/50. Longs need stops below 2900. A break lower us a sell signal targeting 2850 then strong support at 2750/2700 for profit taking on shorts.

We encourage you to use comments to engage with other users, share your perspective and ask questions of authors and each other. However, in order to maintain the high level of discourse we’ve all come to value and expect, please keep the following criteria in mind:

Enrich the conversation, don’t trash it.
Stay focused and on track. Only post material that’s relevant to the topic being discussed.
Be respectful. Even negative opinions can be framed positively and diplomatically. Avoid profanity, slander or personal attacks directed at an author or another user. Racism, sexism and other forms of discrimination will not be tolerated.
Use standard writing style. Include punctuation and upper and lower cases. Comments that are written in all caps and contain excessive use of symbols will be removed.
NOTE: Spam and/or promotional messages and comments containing links will be removed. Phone numbers, email addresses, links to personal or business websites, Skype/Telegram/WhatsApp etc. addresses (including links to groups) will also be removed; self-promotional material or business-related solicitations or PR (ie, contact me for signals/advice etc.), and/or any other comment that contains personal contact specifcs or advertising will be removed as well. In addition, any of the above-mentioned violations may result in suspension of your account.
Doxxing. We do not allow any sharing of private or personal contact or other information about any individual or organization. This will result in immediate suspension of the commentor and his or her account.
Don’t monopolize the conversation. We appreciate passion and conviction, but we also strongly believe in giving everyone a chance to air their point of view. Therefore, in addition to civil interaction, we expect commenters to offer their opinions succinctly and thoughtfully, but not so repeatedly that others are annoyed or offended.
