Crypto Price Analysis August 5: BTC, ETH, LTC, XRP, BCH
Dmitriy Gurkovskiy, a senior analyst at foreign exchange broker RoboForex, provides his vision of the possible tendencies in price changes for Bitcoin as well as for other major cryptos.
Right now, they are steadily growing and demonstrating excellent dynamics. On shorter times frames, many assets are forming different patterns in favor of further bullish tendencies. For bulls, it’s very important to break these patterns’ upside borders if they want to continue their rally towards new highs. Most likely, the market activity will go on and the current correction will be just a short pause before another aggressive growth of the assets.
Bitcoin
As we can see in the daily chart, Bitcoin has been able to break a very significant resistance area, which indicates a strong bullish pressure and the unwillingness of the asset to correct. At the moment, an important support area is at $10,240 and a decline towards this level may later force another rebound to the upside and further growth. In this case, the upside target may be at $13,865. Another signal in favor of this idea will be a rebound from the support line at the RSI. However, this scenario may no longer be valid if the price breaks the rising channel’s downside border and fixes below $10,150. After that, the instrument may continue trading downwards to reach $8,695.

In the H4 chart, BTC/USD is stuck inside a Diamond pattern, which may be both a reversal and a continuation pattern. The RSI indicator here is also very close to the support line: a rebound from the line may result in the new growth of the cryptoasset. That’s why one shouldn’t exclude the possibility of a breakout of the Diamond pattern and the active growth of the price. To confirm this idea, the asset must break the pattern’s upside border and fix above $11,565. In this case, the instrument may easily reach $13,045 in the nearest future. However, the bullish scenario may be canceled if the market breaks the pattern’s downside border and fixes below $10,775.

Ethereum
In the daily chart, ETH/USD has also broken all the closest resistance levels, which are now providing support in case the asset returns to them. The RSI indicator has broken the descending trendline and a correction towards $355 may force the indicator to return to the line, which, in its turn, may push the price to reach new highs. After breaking $430, the instrument may continue skyrocketing towards $515. However, this scenario may no longer be valid if the market breaks the support area and fixes below $355. In this case, the asset may break the rising channel’s downside border and continue falling to reach $290.

On shorter timeframes, Ethereum is growing within the rising channel and forming a Triangle pattern. As a rule, such patterns are broken in the direction of the current trend. A signal in favor of further uptrend is a rebound from the trendline at the RSI. To confirm the bullish scenario, the pair must break the pattern’s upside border and fix above $405. The closest upside target will be at $420, a breakout of which may indicate further growth towards $460. Still, this scenario may be canceled if the price breaks the pattern’s downside border and fixes below $360. After that, the instrument may break the rising channel’s border and continue falling with the target at $300.

Litecoin

The RSI indicator is approaching the broken trendline, a test and a rebound from which may indicate further growth. To confirm the bullish scenario, the pair must break the rising channel’s upside border and fix above $65. In this case, the instrument may cover the width of this channel and reach $85. However, this scenario may be canceled if the price breaks the rising channel’s downside border and fixes below $51. After that, the market may fall and return to $39.
