Wednesday saw crypto prices rise sharply on the back of Bitcoin’s surge past $69,000, TradingView data shows. However, BTC did not sustain its ascent and failed to retest that session’s high.
Bitcoin price displayed a classic trendline fakeout on February 25th, followed by a small red candle on the 26th. A trendline fakeout is a move that appears to be a breakout but isn’t. That the candle does not close above the trendline is characteristic of such a pattern.
Ethereum price was $1,961 at press time, reflecting a 3.2% drop from yesterday’s closing price level. Yesterday, ETH failed to close above its Wednesday close of $2,057.
Meanwhile, LINK traded at $8.8, down 2.3% from yesterday’s close. Yesterday’s close ($9.1) was below Wednesday’s close ($9.26), mirroring BTC’s price action.
At press time, SOL price was $83.6, down 2.7% since yesterday’s close. The prevailing sentiment is that Bitcoin is attempting to stabilize near $70,000 and will soon produce a directional signal.
That sign could be due as soon as this week. This is because, as of now, analysts are confident that a bottom is close. However, there’s little consensus regarding short-term projections.
