Bitcoin's Rally: Stumbling Block or Temporary Setback?

Despite a recent rally, Bitcoin's inability to sustain momentum indicates investors are selling on upticks, leading to a short-term demand decline. Despite the pullback, CryptoQuant's analysis suggests the bull market remains intact, as only 48% of investment currently comes from short-term holders, below the typical peak range of 84%-92%.

Is Bitcoin's Rally Fizzling Out, or Just a Temporary Dip?

Despite Bitcoin's impressive recovery, its inability to sustain the momentum has raised concerns among investors. The recent consecutive net withdrawals from spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) suggest that investors are cashing out on the uptick, leading to a decline in demand in the short term.

Bitcoin's Bullish Outlook: Intact or Impaired?

Despite the pullback, analysts at CryptoQuant remain optimistic about Bitcoin's bull market prospects. They point out that bull markets typically end when 84%-92% of investment comes from short-term holders, who currently account for only 48%. The correction preceding the Bitcoin Halving is seen as a positive sign, as parabolic trends are often unsustainable.

Technical Analysis: Bitcoin's Path Forward

Bitcoin's sharp recovery from the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level at $61,700 indicates a willingness to buy on dips. However, resistance levels at EMA lines are holding strong. The 20-day exponential moving average (EMA) is flat, and the relative strength index (RSI) is around the midline, suggesting sideways movement in the near term.

Support at $60,775 and the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) at $58,000 are likely to be defended by buyers. A surge beyond $69,000 could pave the way for a challenge of the record peak at $74K.

Ethereum: Bulls and Bears Vie for Control

ETH has surged over 2.2% from yesterday's rate, but it recently dipped from the 20-day EMA. Sellers may attempt to breach support at $3,100, which could lead to a decline to $2,700.

Conversely, if support at the 50-day SMA holds, the pair may oscillate within the range defined by the moving averages. A breakout above $3,600 could reignite bullish momentum, potentially driving the pair towards $4,100.

Ripple: Bullish Momentum on the Horizon?

XRP/USDT is expected to gain momentum if buyers push the price beyond $0.65, targeting resistance at $0.74. Surpassing this level could signal the start of an upward phase towards $0.948.

If the price declines and remains under the 20-day EMA, sellers may continue to dominate, with the pair fluctuating between $0.64 and the uptrend line. A descent below the uptrend line could pull the pair down to $0.52.

Aptos: Buyers Aim for Higher Highs

Buyers have successfully maintained APT price above $10, indicating efforts to establish this level as a support base. The upward trend of the 20-day EMA at $16 and the positive RSI suggest that bulls have the upper hand.

The pair may see a gradual surge towards the resistance zone between $17 and $20, which sellers are likely to defend. A breakout above $20 could signal a continuation of the uptrend, potentially leading to new highs.

MANTA: Bulls and Bears Wage Battle

Bulls have defended the $2.5 support level for MANTA, but they face challenges in keeping the price above the 20-day EMA at $3.2.

The downward-trending 20-day EMA and the RSI around the midline indicate that bears are gaining momentum. A renewed effort to push the price beneath the $2.5 support could lead to a decline to $2 or even $1.6.

Conversely, a bounce from the $2.5 support would indicate strong defense by the bulls, leading to another attempt to climb towards the 20-day EMA. Surpassing $3.2 would suggest the end of the corrective phase.
