Bitcoin Drops Lower: Crucial Triangle is Susceptible after BTC Latest Move


Recommended Posts

BITCOIN (BTC) ANALYSIS

  • Bitcoin is attempting to break below the descending triangle in its latest move which opens the door to a more dire technical outlook
  • Key technical levels for bitcoin (BTC/USD)
 

BITCOIN DROPS AS EQUITY MARKETS ATTEMPT TO MOVE HIGHER

Bitcoin and the major US stock markets, particularly the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100, have tended to move in the same direction and are both seen as ‘risky’ assets. Both markets topped ahead of the global monetary tightening cycle and have moved considerably lower since the respective highs.

Despite briefly entering a technical bear market (dropping 20% from the high), the S&P 500 is on track to mark two days of gains and is up around 4.5% from the recent lows, bitcoin however, has witnessed price action consolidating around 28,800 and 30,500 zone.

The largest cryptocurrency by market cap was trading within a descending triangle which has come under threat today as we have seen an attempt to trade below the formation. This pattern, which is typically bearish, indicates that sellers are more aggressive than buyers as price continues to make lower highs, while the lows are generally contained until sellers muster enough force to overpower bulls.

The recent break below the underside of the triangle at 28,630 brings the recent spike low of 26,590 into focus. In the event of continued bearish momentum, things could get very ugly for bitcoin very fast.

If we are to see a move higher form here, the first test appears via the 31,500 level followed by 32,940.

The reason I say things can get very bad for bitcoin is due to the nature of the crypto market when momentum picks up. Throughout its short history bitcoin has surged by staggering amounts in short periods of time but has also tanked and halved its value, or worse, in next to no time. The most recent surge witnessed a 400% rise in just over a year and because of that there is little traction to be had if we are to see a massive drop in the crypto.

Zooming out on the daily chart you can see a bit of consolidation between 23,800 and 22,700 but after that, the next significant level appears as far as 19,891. The crypto market is still reeling from the Terra (LUNA) and the stablecoin’s recent de-pegging from the dollar.

    • Cardano (ADA) has been a hot topic among crypto enthusiasts, especially with predictions that it could hit $10 in the next bull run. Let’s take a closer look at the numbers, the current market situation, and what experts are saying about ADA’s future potential. Current Cardano (ADA) Price and Market Performance Current Price: Cardano ADA is currently priced at $0.33 per Coinpedia Markets. 24-Hour Performance: In the last 24 hours, ADA has dropped by 5.30%, with a trading volume of $314,728,694. Weekly Growth: Despite the recent dip, ADA has spiked over 5% in the past week. Price Targets and Key Levels Experts believe Cardano has the potential for a significant rally. Here’s a breakdown of the key levels to watch: Immediate Resistance: ADA needs to break above the $0.3458 resistance level for any upward momentum. Short-Term Target: If ADA can push through $0.3458, it could rally past the $0.50 mark. Bullish Potential: Price action experts say ADA could even reach $1.50 before November if the momentum continues. Long-Term Target: Looking ahead, some believe ADA could hit $10 during the next major bull run. What’s Fueling This Optimism? The Cardano ecosystem has been buzzing with activity. One recent development that could drive ADA’s growth is the launch of a highly anticipated decentralized application (dApp) called Snake.Fun. This dApp is expected to boost the Cardano network’s usage, leading to higher trading volumes for ADA. Analysts from the DeFi sector are optimistic, stating that if Cardano maintains its current growth trajectory, the $10 price target could be achievable in the long term. The Market Share Debate: Has Cardano Bottomed Out? Rick McCracken, a key figure in the Cardano community, recently sparked a debate by asking his followers about ADA’s market share dominance. Here’s what we know: ADA’s Market Share: For the last two months (since July), Cardano’s market share has stabilized at 0.6%. Community Opinions: Some community members believe ADA has bottomed out, signaling a potential rebound. Others are more cautious, suggesting that ADA needs to grow and retest the 0.77% level to confirm a bottom. Despite the mixed opinions, there’s a sense of cautious optimism among ADA holders. Even Rick McCracken himself believes that the next bull market could change the game for Cardano. What’s Next for Cardano? The future looks promising, but ADA still has some hurdles to clear. Breaking above the $0.3458 resistance level is key for any sustained upward movement. If that happens, a rally toward $1.50 could be on the horizon before the year ends. However, the real question remains: Can Cardano (ADA) reach $10 in the next bull run? While the answer isn’t set in stone, the current growth within the ecosystem, along with the market’s cautious optimism, suggests that it’s a possibility worth considering. Conclusion: Is $10 Achievable? The journey to $10 won’t be easy, but it’s not out of the question. If Cardano can break through key resistance levels and continue to grow its ecosystem, the next bull run could push ADA to new heights. For now, keep an eye on the charts and watch for signs of a breakout above $0.3458—if that happens, Cardano’s rally could just be getting started.
