Weekly Crypto Market Outlook, June 2021

7 June 2021

Pretty much flat for BTC last week, whereas ETHUSD closed up +13%. Upside momentum needs to build, otherwise those previously printed swing lows could be tested in the medium-term.

BTCUSD

The 38000-385000 zone looks like an area that has flipped multiple times. Now many Offers await, so it’s a resistance level to keep an eye on.

35000 is clearly support, with lots of Bids there. If this level breaks, it could be a big fall until the next swing at 30000, which is also likely to be an area of max pain (and many Sell Stops).

ETHUSD

The 2800 level broke with a lot of momentum, but buyers struggled to take 2850, and the retest failed. Now prices are trading under 2800 once again.

Bids forming at 2650.

14 June 2021

A third positive close for BTCUSD last week, up +9%. ETHUSD actually closed down -7.38%. Perhaps this is the beginning of the decoupling after the latter cryptocurrency’s outperformance and then more aggressive crash.

BTCUSD

BTC is on another run to kick Monday off, blowing through large Offers through 38,000 and a longer-term wedge pattern, printing a higher high on the weekly chart.

The pair traded just shy of huge 40,000 offers, the buying being absorbed by Offers just below. But the huge Bids that appeared to support the rally then absorbed selling on the way down, and it seems that the upside is under threat once again. 40,000 and 42,000 Offers are the next targets to the upside. 39,000 Bids currently support prices, 38,500 and 37,500 sit below.

ETHUSD

Similar moves here, the pair rising and breaking 2500 Offers before retracing. The pair is lagging BTCUSD and 2400 Bids are huge, 2350 also very big.

Offers above light.

21 June 2021

BTCUSD failed to close higher above the long term swing high the pair broke out from last week, closing down -8.77% on the week. ETHUSD didn’t fare any better, closing down -10.67%.

BTCUSD

The pair is in freefall, closing down 5 out of the last 6 daily trading sessions, and is currently down nearly -9% on the current session.

The pair has been stepping down through large Bids from 38,000 to as a low as 32,000.

Zooming in further to view the action today, we see a huge quantity of Bids at 30000. This is also a swing low on the weekly, which if breaks may see the market crack wide open.

ETHUSD

Huge Bids at 2000 seemed to halt the fall in prices for a short time, but eventually heavy sellers reentered the market and the pair dropped heavily again.

More large Bids levels at 1800, 1750, 1600. These are likely to be the next targets for the bears.

28 June 2021

The two main cryptocurrency pairs are still in a balancing act, unsure whether to continue the longer-term downtrend and confirm the bear market, or recover. ETHUSD closed down nearly -12% on the week, BTCUSD did less bad at -2.5%.

BTCUSD

As we can see, the pair failed to breach the high above 35500 at the start of the week, the Offers around 35000 absorbing buyers.

30000 is a huge level. Bids await, but it’s also a swing low and there is likely to be a capitulation if it breaks.

ETHUSD

Naturally a similar pattern here, except here it was Offers from 2000 through 2500 that absorbed the break of the high. Bids layered all the way down to 18500, but no large levels in sight.

All eyes on the swing low at 1700.
