BITCOIN(BTC)
Bitcoin is priced at $ 36,358 with a 1.74% gain in value as of today morning hours. With yesterday’s Binance news, it broke down the rising channel it was in for a long time, but it was included again in the morning hours. At this stage, it is very important to maintain this upward channel. If $36,000 is lost, $35,000 seems to be the strongest support. If the upward movement continues, the first target could be the middle level of the ascending channel, i.e. $38,000.
ETHEREUM(ETH)
ETH, which gained 2.57% as of morning hours, is priced at $ 1982.57. When we look at the 4-hour chart, there was a decline to the $ 1930 level yesterday. After returning to the $ 1930 support position, there was a rise up to $ 1990. If the upward movement continues, an increase up to the $ 2030 level can be seen. If the retreat is experienced from these levels, $ 1900 seems to be the next support position.
RIPPLE(XRP)
XRP is priced at $0.5906 with a 2.04% gain as of morning hours. On the 4-hour chart, it is in a falling structure in the medium term. After receiving a reaction from the strong support zone of 0.5733 dollars, pricing is seen above the 0.59 zone. If the rise continues with the reaction it will receive from here, a break of 0.60 dollars can be seen.
AVALANCHE(AVAX)
AVAX is priced at $ 20.41 with a 7.31% loss in value as of morning hours. After getting a good reaction from $19 on the 4-hour chart, it was able to rise above $20 again. Maintaining $20 is very important and if the upward movement continues, a break of $24 can be seen. If the retreat will continue, a retreat to $ 18 levels can be seen.
SOLANA(SOL)
SOL is priced at $ 54.18 with a gain of 4.88% as of morning hours. When we examined the hourly chart, we saw some retracement with the downward break of the rectangle pattern we mentioned yesterday. It fell to the support level of 51.60 and received a reaction from this region. If the upward movement continues, the 55 level seems to be an important resistance. In case of a persistence above this level, it may be possible to see a movement towards the 57 level.

As of morning hours, LINK is pricing at 14.118 with a 5.67% gain in value. When we examine the hourly chart, we see that with the retreat experienced yesterday, it declined to the level of 13.370. If the movement continues in LINK, which has received a good reaction from this level, the 14.355 level will be an important resistance. With the crossing of this level, a rise towards 15 levels can be seen.
SNX
SNX is pricing at 3.672 with a 14% gain as of morning hours. When we examine the weekly chart, we see that a rectangle pattern has formed and broken upwards.
