What Crypto Exchanges are saying about the current market scenario
Edul Patel, co-founder and CEO, Mudrex, told ABP Live: “Bitcoin continued to trade above the $62,000 level. Bulls are looking to consolidate their position further by pushing the price above the immediate resistance at $63,200. BTC is yet to gain the strength to make a sharp move. BTC is likely to remain sideways between the $60,000 and $63,600 levels. However, in case the price turns down, the next support is set at the $61,700 levels. Meanwhile, Ethereum is trading at $3,400 levels as market participants await the approval of the Ethereum Spot ETF.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk said, “Bitcoin appears to have recovered from the sharp drop of the past few days. $60,000 has proven to be good support as bulls attempt to rally BTC to $65,000. According to the chart, this is the next major resistance. Short-term support is found near the $625,000 level, which was already tested once during this stage of the upswing yesterday. Another factor suggesting that Bitcoin may have bottomed is the Coinbase Premium Index. FalconX head of research points out that the last time this happened, Bitcoin surged from October 2023 to March 2024.”
Rajagopal Menon, Vice President at WazirX said, “Bitcoin rose 0.55% today, surpassing the crucial $63,000 level. This $63-64,000 zone is seen as a potential trigger for a new bull run if sustained. Optimism is spreading as Bitcoin targets the $64,000 levels. Technical indicators are showing a mixed outlook, but there are hopes that the miners' sell-off is over. The short-term bull run is supported by the 10-period EMA and SMA suggesting buying, but longer-term resistance could pose a challenge unless the key support levels hold.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO, BuyUcoin said, “Bitcoin has recently recovered, rising 5% after a significant drop of 23%. As per the chart, Bitcoin has flattened out and is forming a solid support zone around $60,000. We expect Bitcoin to fluctuate between $60,000 and $65,000 in the short to medium term. If market conditions remain favorable, bullish momentum may move towards the $70,000 barrier level. Given high market volatility, traders should be wary of potential pullbacks.”
CoinDCX research team told ABP Live: “The crypto market remained neutral as traders and investors awaited major US macro events. BTC and ETH rose slightly, but altcoins performed well, with BTC's stability helping altcoins rally. Of concern is the BTC futures CME gap at $61,000 to $62,000. This gap is likely to close, but the timing is uncertain. Technically, both BTC and ETH look solid.”
