Today’s crypto market is experiencing volatility with mixed signals — a pattern savvy traders love for strategic entries and exits:
• Bitcoin slid below $90,000 in Asia trading after the latest Federal Reserve rate cut, while risk assets rallied — signifying traders are repositioning portfolios across markets.
• Overall crypto sentiment dipped, with BTC, ETH and most majors declining last month and trading volumes shrinking.
• Market breadth shows short-term weakness but longer-term setups are forming. Ether’s developer ecosystem is booming, fueling confidence in its future potential.
• Broader markets still show resilience: some key assets are stabilizing and even showing strength in certain pockets.
• Today’s crypto downturn (BTC -2.8%, ETH -4.3%) is a short-term reaction — not full capitulation.
📉 Short-term traders can capitalize on volatility patterns, while swing traders can watch for charts setting up breakouts after retracements.
📊 Charts to Watch — Key Levels That Define Next Moves
Here are the critical structural levels every trader should keep on their charts today:
➡ Resistance zone: $93,000 – $98,000
➡ Support zone: $85,000 – $88,000
Watch for breakouts above resistance for continuation trades or failure at resistance to trigger quick range plays.
📈 Ethereum (ETH)
ETH’s chart trend shows signs of accumulation and possible reversal if it holds key supports. Traders should watch whether ETH can reclaim the upper trend zones and flip them into new supports.
Pro Tip: Use EMA + RSI confluence to time entries where momentum aligns with oversold conditions.
📌 If Bitcoin leads higher, expect ETH and top alts to follow with amplified moves (historical correlation holds strong).
