What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin is consolidating around the $67,000 level as market participants book profits and the US dollar strengthens. Despite this, bullish sentiment remains strong, with Bitcoin gaining about 5% in the past week. The key resistance level is at $68,300, while support lies at $66,500. Additionally, Ether ETFs are set to begin trading today, signaling the SEC’s approval. This development is expected to attract interest from institutional investors, potentially driving further market activity.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Bitcoin continues its uptrend as it finds support at the crucial $66.6k – however, $69k is a major resistance which needs to be broken down with volumes to give BTC a chance to break all-time highs yet again. On the other hand, US regulators have now given final approval for Ethereum-based ETF products, meaning institutions will now have access to more than 71% of the $2.45 trillion crypto asset industry directly through regulated products. Lastly, India’s Union Budget is set to be announced today, and the crypto industry is hoping for tax reductions.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin (BTC/USD) is currently trading at $67,410, a slight decrease of almost 1%. On the 4-hour chart, $66,660 serves as a crucial pivot point for traders. Immediate resistance levels are seen at $68,420, followed by $69,250 and $70,090. Support is noted at $65,880, with further levels at $65,120 and $64,300. Technical indicators offer mixed signals: the RSI sits at 55, indicating neutrality, while the 50-day EMA at $66,250 suggests a buying trend above $66,000. An ascending trendline near $66,660 provides further bullish support, with Bitcoin’s outlook remaining positive above this level. However, a break below $66,660 could trigger a significant downtrend.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “The crypto market moved sideways as volatility remains high with a mix of news and announcements. Ethereum trading is set to start today, greenlit by the SEC, and how the price will react remains to be seen. This week is crucial and expected to be highly volatile due to several factors. Key macro events include the U.S. GDP Q data, the PCE Price Index, and Unemployment Claims, all of which could influence market movements. Additionally, Mt. Gox creditors will also receive their BTC and BCH, with uncertain market reactions. Finally, the Bitcoin Conference this weekend, featuring Donald Trump as the main speaker, could significantly impact the market.”
