BITCOIN(BTC)

Bitcoin is priced at $ 37,308 with a 0.25% loss in value as of today morning hours. We were able to test the middle part of the rising channel again with the rise that came in the evening hours yesterday, but we could not exceed $ 38,000. A gain of $38,000 could take the price to $40,000. The next destination will be the journey to the upper part of the ascending channel. The $39,000-$40,000 range is a strong resistance zone and it is quite likely to be rejected from here. If there is a downward correction, this time a retracement up to $35,000 may be seen.

ETHEREUM(ETH)

ETH, which gained 0.03% as of morning hours, is priced at $ 2063.28. Yesterday’s price increase broke the downtrend in the medium term. Although it rose to $ 2090, it could not see $ 2100 again, but it continues to rise after a healthy retest in the broken trend. The first resistance level seems to be 2120 dollars. If a deeper retracement occurs as support, we can determine $ 2000.

RIPPLE(XRP)

As of morning hours, XRP is priced at $ 0.5906, down 0.21%. XRP also shows a downtrend breakout in the medium term. If an upward movement continues, the first target could be to go to $0.64.

AVALANCHE(AVAX)

AVAX is priced at $ 20.96 with a 0.77% gain as of morning hours. With yesterday’s rise in AVAX, it provided permanence above 20 dollars. Although its movement is slow compared to other altcoins, there is a lot of innovation in the network and the price is increasing at a very healthy rate. 22 dollars is the resistance zone and above this point, AVAX can take AVAX up to 24 dollars again. If there will be a retreat, the first support position is $ 20, and if there is a deeper deepening, a retreat up to $ 19 can be seen.

SOLANA(SOL)

SOL is priced at $ 58.33 with a gain of 0.71% as of morning hours. When we examine the four-hour chart, we see that a reaction was taken from the 51.60 region, which was the support level yesterday, and the rise continues at the moment. The resistance level of 61.40 is an important level for the continuation of the rise. With the crossing of this level, it may be possible to see an increase towards the $ 66 level. When we examine the support points, the 55 level can be followed.
