Can Ethereum Hold the $1500's?Ethereum has held its ground, finding support at $1547, as anticipated. Support is confirmed by multiple green triangles on the KRI. The Kovach OBV is still quite bearish, but does appear to be attempting to level off as the bleeding eases. A strong US dollar and hawkish Fed outlook should continue to weigh on crypto, but if the $1500's can hold, then $1653 is the next target. After that we will face further resistance from that cluster of levels in the $1700's. If support breaks then $1424, and $1341 should provide further support.

Bitcoin Clings to the $20K'sBitcoin has found support at $20.7K, confirmed by multiple green triangles on the KRI, despite an increase in the strength of the US dollar. The Kovach OBV is still bearish however, and if support caves, we will return to the value area between $18.6K and $20.7K. If we are able to pivot then the next target is $23.9K. But we are seeing strong resistance in between $20.1K and $23.9K, at around $21.6K, which must be broken before considering higher levels.

According to CoinShare, Digital asset investment products saw minor outflows last week totalling US$9m last week with volumes at US$1bn, 55% off the year average and the 2nd lowest this year. Bitcoin price is almost flat over the past 24 hours. The relative strength index (RSI) is near the oversold zone, indicating that the bears have a significant advantage. For now, the bulls need to push the Bitcoin price above the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) ($22,382) to avoid further decline.

UK Intends to Bring Stablecoins Under Regulation
A proposed bill could give U.K. regulators new powers over payments-focused crypto assets like stablecoins in September. The bill looks to expand existing financial regulations to cover payments-centric cryptocurrencies such as stablecoins, which are broadly defined as "digital settlement assets" (DSAs), and the bill also puts the UK Treasury in charge of defining what DSA are and gives the Bank of England (BoE), the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Payments Systems Regulator (PSR) corresponding powers to enforce the rules.

Can Litecoin Hold the $50'sLitecoin has fallen, giving up the $60's, but finding support in the $50's. We are currently finding support at the base of the $50 handle, with two strong levels at $51.92 and $50.64. These are likely to hold as a floor price for now, but if we break down further, then $45.48 is the next target. If we can pivot, then $55.84 is the next target above, which we must break through if we hope to establish the $60's again.
Ethereum Smashes Through Key LevelsEthereum has tumbled with the rest of the crypto market. We have blasted through a cluster of strong support levels in the $1700's and $1600's. The last of these levels at $1653 did little to provide support. We are currently testing the next level below that at $1547. We are currently seeing support there confirmed by green triangles on the KRI. If we fall further, we might see support at $1424, $1341, or $1235. If we pivot higher, then $1653 is the next target.
These Factors Will Weigh on Bitcoin This Week...Strength in the US dollar and more hawkish Fed outlook has impacted the crypto market. Bitcoin has plummeted from relative highs around $25K back to support at $20.7K. We are currently seeing strong support at this level confirmed by green triangles on the KRI. But we are unable to muster the strength for a pivot at this time. If we do, then $23.9K is the next target. If support around $20K fails, then we will enter the value area between $18.6K and $20.7K again.
Bitcoin The Trend Is Your Friend? Resistance Ahead.We're a couple weeks away in to seeing if we will break out of our sloping resistance we've formed since November 10th which officially marked the top of the bull market and start of the bear market. Ideally we would want to be holding above $24,000 to continue the uptrend we started since June 18th. If we can not successfully break out of this downtrend there's a strong likelihood that we fall back below a sub $20,000 Bitcoin.
We will know something by the end of September. Between $19,000 - $24,000 is the range we've been trading since June. A lot of price interaction and support around the $20k - $21k price range on the visible range bars.
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) Daily Chart Analysis For August 19, 2022Technical Analysis and Outlook:
The Bitcoin penetrated our Mean Sup of $22,575 and settled at a Mean Sup of $20,780. The rebound to Mean Res $24,450 is possible. The primary destination level to Key Sup 18,900 and Completed Outer Coin Dip $18,665 is in the process.
ETHUSDT - Plan remains the same!!!Okay folks, my plan REMAINS as I've shared previously!
Looking to long ETH soon, almost at my buy zone. Plan remains the same, will enter in GREEN with a tighter stop loss, in case this rally is over in the mid-term.
If this dip completes and we get another leg up, I'm targeting the squiggly top clearly as a TP area. as that will take out our previous highs of the former consolidation area.
Eventually, as you know, I think this rally will retest lower in the longer term forecast, but there is likely more juice left in the tank before that happens imo so I will take this swing trade soon.
Cheers!
**Remember, the key here is using a stop-loss order with CLEAR invalidation.
Can Litecoin Hold the $50's?A stronger dollar and hawkish Fed outlook has impacted the crypto market across the board, with Litecoin plummeting from the $60's. We appeared to have good support there for quite some time, but $61.75 proved to be prohibitive, and we caved through to lower levels. We have been highlighting $55.84 as a lower bound for weeks now, and sure enough, this is the exact level at which we are finding support. If we can pivot, then $61.75 will likely be the next target. If we plummet further, watch for support at $51.92.
Ethereum Gives up the $1800'sEthereum has fallen dramatically lower after first rejecting the $2K's. After that, the $1800's seemed to hold well, but recently have given way to the upper $1700's. We anticipated this yesterday, and noted that there is a cluster of levels beginning at $1748. We should have strong support beginning here. The last of these levels is $1653, which we expect to hold as a floor for now. If we are able to pivot we should have immediate resistance $1821.
Two Reasons Why Bitcoin PlummetedBitcoin has plummeted, likely due to a stronger dollar, and hawkish Fed expectations. Wednesday's Retail Sales data demonstrated the impact of high inflation, and the probability of another 75bps rate hike is about 50%. We smashed through $22.4K, and are hovering in the range between $20.7K and $22.4K. The Kovach OBV took a very sharp turn down, and we will see if momentum will continue, or if we can hold current levels. We are seeing some greent triangles on the KRI which could indicate a pivot, but we will need more momentum to follow through.

Can Litecoin Break Out??Litecoin has slipped from highs around $64. We made another attempt to break through $64.37, but failed swiftly at this level exactly. Upon retracement, we broke through $61.75, but found support at $60. If we pivot here, then $51.75 and $64.37 will continue to provide resistance and should be considered prohibitive barriers for now. we should continue to find support in the low $60's, but if not, there is a vacuum zone to $55.84.
