Altcoins and Bitcoin Face Risk of Weakness

altcoins
Crypto markets have been facings similar upside capping. While Bitcoin has dropped below the $10, 000 marks, Ethereum is still undergoing resistance levels between $185 and $190 support areas. Ripple (XRP) is also facing massive pressure around the support areas of $0.265 and $0.280. Coins that could be heading for a slump include, BTC, ETH, XRP, Litecoin, BNB, XLM, ADA, TRX, Bitcoin cash and EOS.

BTC

Bitcoin’s momentum began fading at around $10,200. The coin is now facing fresh drop and is trading below $10, 000 and $10,100 support levels. As of press time, the price is below $10,000 and an immediate support around $9, 920. However, you could expect a price correction revisiting the $9,500 support area. Fortunately, there is price hurdle around $10,150 and in case the price recovers above $10, 150; it might rise all the way towards a $10, 350.

ETH

Ethereum price refused to correct above the resistance levels, $190 - $192. The coin faced a price decline on Thursday and is currently trading below $190. The main support level is somewhere around $175 and you might expect a major drop below $162. Probably, $185 could be a lifesaving price hurdle that could see the price correct towards $200, or measly above $190.

EOS, Bitcoin Cash and XRP

Other altcoins performance,

EOS is under due pressure below the support levels $4.00 and $3.85. The trading price is below $3.650 and faces a downside risk of performing below $3.50 and $3.45 support levels. We expect the next major support to hit the $3.25 grounds.

XRP is in a major downtrend following a whale movement worth millions of dollars. Despite playing around $0.285 and $0.272 resistance levels, XRP price could correct with a slide towards a support of $0.250.

Bitcoin Cash remains below the main resistance area of $320. Currently approaches support levels between $305 and $300. A break below $300 support levels, would risk strong drops towards $280 and $275.
