📊 Market Pulse — Apr 17, 2026
The ceasefire rally is taking a breather. Here’s where we stand.
🟠 $BTC — $75,698 | Up 0.70% but stalling. There’s $450M in sell orders stacked at the $76K wall. That level needs a clean daily close above $76,016 with real volume to unlock the next leg. Negative funding rates are flashing — historically a bullish contrarian signal.
🔵 $ETH — $2,355 | The fundamentals story of the week. Q1 2026 was Ethereum’s busiest quarter in 3 years — 200.4M transactions. ETF inflows of $187M in a single week. The Glamsterdam upgrade is still incoming. ETH looks strong.
🟣 $SOL — $88.46 | Down 1% while BTC and ETH hold. DoubleZero Edge just launched bringing Wall Street-grade data feeds to Solana. Drift DEX is relaunching on the network. Watch the $85 support zone.
Still Bitcoin Season (Dom: 57.1%). The macro is improving but patience remains the edge. Let $76K break cleanly before chasing.
Not financial advice. DYOR.
