Price analysis 6/25: BTC, ETH, BNB, ADA, DOGE, XRP, DOT, UNI, BCH, LTC

Bitcoin (BTC) price remains jittery and throughout this week, every relief rally is being sold into. This is a classic bear market reaction and may not end in a hurry. However, the current price action should not worry investors because the longer the time spent in a bottoming formation, the stronger the base for the next leg of the up-move.

In a recent note to investors, JPMorgan said that Bitcoin’s fair value may remain between $23,000 and $35,000 over the medium term. The bank pointed out that outflows from crypto Bitcoin funds since the fall on May 19, show a lack of demand from institutional investors. Another reason that may be capping Bitcoin’s price is the massive unlocking of Bitcoin from the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust fund at the end of the six-month lock-up period.

None of the events of the past few days have changed the long-term view of Bitcoin. Jason Urban, the co-head of trading at Galaxy Digital said that Bitcoin may “see something north of $70,000 by the end of the year.”

Although not a game-changer, the Purpose Bitcoin exchange-traded fund has seen an average inflow of 86.15 Bitcoin between May 15 and June 24, according to Glassnode data. This has boosted the ETF’s assets under management to 21,114 BTC. This shows that smart investors are gradually chipping away instead of trying to time the bottom.

Let’s study the charts of the top-10 cryptocurrencies to determine the critical support levels that could be touched if the downtrend continues.

BTC/USDT

Bitcoin’s rebound off the $31,000 to $28,000 support zone has turned down from the 20-day exponential moving average ($35,788) today. The downsloping moving averages and the relative strength index (RSI) in the negative territory indicate an advantage to the bears.

The sellers will now make one more attempt to sink the price below the support zone. If they succeed, the BTC/USDT pair could start the next leg of the down move and plummet to $20,000.

However, the bulls will not give up easily. They are likely to defend the support zone aggressively. If the price rebounds off this zone once again, the bulls will try to push the price above the 20-day EMA.

If they manage to do that, the BTC/USDT pair could continue its consolidation between $28,000 and $42,451.67 for the next few days. A breakout and close above this range will be the first sign that the downtrend may have ended.

ETH/USDT

Ether’s (ETH) rebound off the $1,728.74 support fizzled out at $2,045 on June 23. This suggests a lack of buyers at higher levels. Both moving averages have turned down and the RSI is near the oversold zone, indicating that the path of least resistance is to the downside.

If the price turns down and breaks below the $1,728.74 support, the ETH/USDT pair could start the next leg of the downtrend. The pair could then drop to $1,536.92 and then $1,293.18. The deeper the fall, the longer it will take for the bulls to start the next leg of the uptrend.

Contrary to this assumption, if the price again rebounds off $1,728.74, it will suggest that the bulls are defending this level aggressively. A breakout and close above the 20-day EMA ($2,248) will be the first indication that a bottoming formation may have started.

BNB/USDT

Binance Coin’s (BNB) bounce off the $211.70 support is facing stiff resistance at the 20-day EMA ($332). This suggests that the sentiment remains negative and traders are selling on rallies.

The bears will now make one more attempt to sink the price below the $211.70 support. If they manage to do that, the BNB/USDT pair could start the next leg of the downtrend. The next support on the downside is $200 and then $126.75.

Alternatively, if the price rebounds off the $211.70 support, it will suggest strong accumulation by the bulls at this level. If the buyers propel the price above the 20-day EMA, the pair could rise to $433. A breakout and close above this resistance will be the first sign that the downtrend may be over.

ADA/USDT

Cardano (ADA) rebounded off the $1 support on June 22 but the bulls seem to have hit a wall at the 20-day EMA ($1.42). This suggests that the bears have not thrown in the towel yet and are trying to maintain the upper hand.

The sellers will now try to pull the price down to $1. This is an important support to watch out for because it has not been broken on a closing basis since Feb. 23. Therefore, a break below $1 may result in a long liquidation.

The ADA/USDT pair could then drop to $0.68 and if the selling intensifies, the decline could even extend to $0.40.

However, the bulls will have other plans. They will again try to defend the $1 support. If they succeed, the pair may break out of the 20-day EMA and rise to the 50-day simple moving average ($1.61).

DOGE/USDT

Dogecoin (DOGE) rebounded off the $0.15 support on June 22 and reached the 20-day EMA ($0.28) today. After the sharp relief rally of the past three days, the bears are likely to defend the zone between the 20-day EMA and the neckline aggressively.

If the price turns down from the overhead resistance zone, the bears will try to pull the price back to $0.15. A break and close below this level will suggest that traders sold their positions during the current rally. The DOGE/USDT pair could then drop to $0.10.

On the other hand, if the bulls defend the next drop to the $0.21 support, it will signal strength. A breakout and close above the neckline will be the first sign that the pair’s correction could be over and a bottoming formation may begin.

XRP/USDT

XRP’s rebound off the $0.50 support in the past few days could not even reach the breakdown level of $0.75. This suggests a lack of urgency among the traders to buy at these levels.

The bears may now sell aggressively and try to pull the price below the psychological level at $0.50. If they do that, the XRP/USDT pair could decline to the support line of the descending channel.

On the contrary, if the bulls buy the next dip to the $0.50 support, it will suggest accumulation at lower levels. The bulls will have to push and sustain the price above the 20-day EMA to suggest that the selling pressure is reducing.

DOT/USDT

Polkadot’s (DOT) rebound off $13 has been weak as the bulls have not even been able to push the price to the 20-day EMA ($20). This suggests that traders are in no great hurry to buy at the current levels.

The downsloping moving averages and the RSI below 36 indicate that bears have the upper hand. If bears pull the price below $13, the DOT/USDT pair may resume the downtrend and plummet to $10 and later to $7.50.

Conversely, if the price rebounds off $13 and rises above $17, the pair may rise to the 20-day EMA. A breakout and close above this resistance will open the doors for a move to $26.50. If the price turns down from this level, the pair may consolidate between $13 and $26.50 for the next few days.

UNI/USDT

Uniswap’s (UNI) rebound off $13 hit a wall at $18.60 on June 24. This suggests that demand dries up at higher levels. The downsloping moving averages and the RSI in the negative zone indicate that bears are in control.

The bears will now try to sink the price below the $13 support. If they manage to sustain the price below the support, the UNI/USDT pair could witness further selling. That may result in a decline to $10 and then to $7.

Alternatively, if the bulls again defend the $13 support, it will suggest accumulation at lower levels. The buyers will then try to drive the price above the 20-day EMA ($20). If they succeed, the pair could rally to the 50-day SMA ($26) and then to $30.

BCH/USDT

The bulls are struggling to thrust Bitcoin Cash (BCH) above the breakout level at $538.11, which suggests a lack of urgency among the bulls to accumulate at the current levels.

Both moving averages are sloping down and the RSI is near the oversold territory, suggesting that bears are in command. The sellers will now try to cement their advantage by sinking the price below the $370 support.

If they do that, the BCH/USDT pair could drop to the psychological support at $300 and then to $270. Contrary to this assumption, if the price again rebounds off $370, it will indicate strong buying at lower levels. The bulls will then attempt to push the price above the 20-day EMA ($565). If that happens, the pair may rally to the 50-day SMA ($782).

LTC/USDT

Litecoin’s (LTC) rebound off the $118 support lacks strength. This suggests that traders are not convinced that a bottom has been made. The downsloping moving averages and the RSI in the negative territory suggest that bears are in command.

If the price turns down from the current level and breaks below $118, the LTC/USDT pair could resume its downtrend. The next support on the downside is $100 and if this psychological level also cracks, the decline may extend to $70.

On the contrary, if the price rebounds off $118 once again, the bulls will again try to push the price to the downtrend line. A breakout and close above this resistance will suggest that the sellers are losing their grip. The pair could then rally to the 50-day SMA ($206).
