Volatility has dropped to historically low levels, with the 30-day volatility at just 1.52% compared to the usual 4%, providing a more stable environment for investors. Meanwhile, long-term holders are transitioning from the capitulation phase to the equilibrium phase, indicating a potential shift towards euphoria. On the selling front, short-term holders are taking profits as indicated by the SOPR (spent output profit ratio) moving back above 1

tl/dr:

  • Price shows a bearish trend after last week's high, raiding buy-side liquidity and creating a new lower low.
  • Currently at the 1H 50 EMA, waiting for directional confirmation.
  • Looking for a break and close above the 50 EMA to signal bullish intent and a potential move to the $27600 range.
  • Alternatively, a continued bearish trend may push price down to the $26k level.

The LTFs show how price has moved bearish since last week's $28,500 price high, trending bearish raiding buy-side liquidity followed by a new lower low and trend continuation bearish. Price is now sat at the 1H 50 EMA where we wait for directional confirmation.

Moving forward, we are looking for price to successfully break and close above the 50 EMA to signal bullish intent and for price to impulse up into the $27600 price range. Alternatively, a continued bearish trend would see price reach the $26k price level. 

Bitcoin Macro

tl/dr:

  • BTC/USD hovers between $25,700 and $28,600, unable to break above the daily 50 EMA.
  • Price briefly closed above the daily 50 EMA for 3 days but faced resistance, settling at $27k.
  • The approaching daily 200 EMA suggests a potential aggressive bearish move to $25k, finding support from the daily 200 EMA, bullish order block, and sell-side liquidity.
  • Alternatively, a continued bullish move to $29k is anticipated from the current level.

BTC/USD has continued to hover between $25,700 and $28,600 this week, having failed to successfully break above the daily 50 EMA. Price managed to close above the daily 50 EMA for 3 days before rejecting the level and finding resistance, pushing price back down to settle at $27k. 

Moving forward we can anticipate that as the daily 200 EMA moves ever closer to an aggressive bearish move to $25k, price may well find support given the combination of the daily 200 EMA, bullish order block, and sell-side liquidity that would be raided. Alternatively, a continued bullish move from here to $29k would be anticipated.

Altcoins on the move

Exciting developments in the Ethereum ecosystem! A dormant wallet from the Ethereum ICO has suddenly come alive after eight years, raising questions about its intentions. In another intriguing move, an ETH whale decided to deposit a staggering 23,080 ETH ($44M) into Binance following the price surge to $1900, suggesting a strategic profit-taking move. But that's not all—Ethereum's transaction volume is now rivaling Visa as blockchain transactions continue to soar, highlighting the growing adoption and scalability of the network. 

ETH macro

tl/dr

  • ETH shows bullish signs, finding support at the daily 50 EMA.
  • A potential bullish move to reclaim $2k is likely if support holds.
  • Alternatively, a bearish push to find support at the daily 200 EMA is expected before significant pullbacks occur.
  • ETH demonstrates more bullish intent compared to BTC this week.

ETH looks pretty similar this week as per usual, showing more signs of bullish intent than BTC. Price is currently finding support at the daily 50 EMA, if we continue to hold, then a bullish move up to reclaim $2k is likely. 

Alternatively, a bearish push down to find support at the daily 200 EMA would be the likely course of action before any chance of significant pullbacks takes place.
