In short: Bitcoin and Ethereum both experienced losses in their value today. Bitcoin fell from its Tuesday high of $28,037.69 and dropped below $27,000 due, in part, to a decrease in US consumer confidence. Ethereum plummeted to below $1,900, dropping from its multi-week high of $1,928, possibly due to its failure to surpass resistance at $1,930.
Our quick analysis:
Bitcoin and Ethereum faced a slump in today's session, as the U.S. consumer confidence fell to a six-month low. It’s déjà vu for the cryptos, which are struggling to maintain momentum amidst the market’s shifting dynamics.
Bitcoin
Bitcoin’s (BTC) price approached a heart-stopping drop below $27,000, affected by the recent consumer confidence data in the United States.
From an intraday high of $28,037.69 on Tuesday, BTC/USD slipped to an intraday low of $27,009.69 earlier in the day.
While anticipating a crossover between the 10-day (red) and 25-day (blue) moving averages, BTC is experiencing a strong headwind in today's market.
A failed breakout of the ceiling at 53.00 on the relative strength index (RSI) could be a probable cause of concern. The RSI is now heading towards a floor at 46.00, with a current reading of 47.10. If BTC's current levels hold, there’s still a chance for a recovery.
Ethereum
Ethereum’s (ETH) bullish retreat led to it dropping below $1,900, dragging down the entire cryptocurrency market.
ETH/USD touched a low of $1,860.37 earlier in the day, following the previous high of $1,914.85.
The momentum shift caused Ethereum to lose ground against a recent high of $1,928, which was its strongest point since May 8.
The failure to move past the resistance level of $1,930 can be attributed partially to this reversal.
Bears are now determined to drive the price towards the support point of $1,830. The RSI could touch down on the floor, tracking at 52.60, with the next visible floor potentially at 49.00.
