Bitcoin price

In the past few sessions, bitcoin price remained in a broad range above the USD 29,000 zone. BTC is facing a key barrier near the USD 30,500 level. The next key resistance is near the USD 31,200 and USD 31,500 levels, above which the price might gain pace. In this case, the price could rise towards the USD 32,200 resistance zone.

On the downside, an immediate support is near the USD 29,200 level. The next major support is near the USD 29,000 level, below which the price could start a stronger decline. 

Ethereum price

Ethereum price is facing an uphill task above the USD 2,050 level. If there is a bearish reaction, the bulls might try to protect the USD 2,000 and USD 1,980 support levels. A downside break and a close below USD 1,980 might start a sharper decline. ETH is down almost 3% in a day and 13% in a week.

On the upside, an immediate resistance is still near the USD 2,080 level. The main breakout zone for a steady increase is now forming near the USD 2,120 level.

DOGE is consolidating below the USD 0.0900 resistance zone. The main support is near the USD 0.0850 level. Any more losses may perhaps call for a move towards the USD 0.0820 level.

XRP price is trading well below the USD 0.45 resistance. An immediate support is near the USD 0.42 level. The main support is at USD 0.40, below which the bears could gain momentum.
