Analysis and Charts for Bitcoin (BTC/USD), Ethereum (ETH/USD), and Other Cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin continues to move sideways. The margin between Ethereum and Bitcoin is reversing gains. Following Elon Musk’s tweet, Dogecoin has risen in value. Over the last few weeks, the cryptocurrency market has practically been treading water, forming a box range in both Bitcoin and Ethereum. Due to a lack of discernible movers, any minor rise or dip is prone to a pullback, lowering volatility, and the existing ranges may hold in the next weeks. To help break these ranges and establish a new trend, the market as a whole requires new incentive, whether good or negative. Bitcoin is currently capped below $37,000, and the current spot price is below all three moving averages, indicating that bearish sentiment is still prevalent. The 200-day sma, on the other hand, is currently supporting Ethereum, with a range resistance of roughly $2,460.

Spread Chart for Ethereum/Bitcoin on a Daily Basis Another Elon Musk Tweet in support of Dogecoin drove the meme-inspired cryptocurrency higher on Friday, albeit the 6% price increase implies the Tesla CEO’s market clout is waning. Musk’s tweets have been worth a nice 20%+ increase this year, especially during the alt-coin season, so today’s minor rally should be viewed in context. Dogecoin is now trading at $0.222, putting its market capitalisation at slightly under $29 billion.
