BITCOIN(BTC)
Bitcoin is priced at $ 26,048 with a 0.02% loss in value as of today morning hours. Bitcoin retreated to the 25,200 region with the decline it realized yesterday and managed to rise above $ 21,000 again with the purchasing power it saw from here. Bitcoin’s volume is still close to the average but remains low, which is why even small movements can lead to big drops. Although the 26 zone is working as support, we would like to remind you that the main region to be considered in Bitcoin in the medium and long term is the 24,800-25,200 range. If this region breaks down, we think that negative pricing may continue.
ETHEREUM (ETH)
ETH, which gained 0.21% as of morning hours, is priced at $ 1638. In Ethereum, we see that we fell to the 1570 region with yesterday’s sales, and although we expect $ 1600 to work as a psychological level, we see that our main support level is the 1550-1570 range. We can say that the rapid return movement in Ethereum looks positive, but it is still far from the target level and the sales volumes seem high, so it is not a very positive atmosphere.
