Bitcoin Headed Lower?
Daan Crypto Trades, a widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader, noted that Bitcoin held the $83,000 retest on the daily chart after sweeping stops below it, a common liquidity grab in volatile markets.
“But the bulls need to get this moving from this area soon, a loss of this current region would see us test the mid $70,000s where it meets the Daily 200 EMA [Extended Moving Average] & Bull market support band,” the analyst projected/

Cryptocurrency analyst Michaël van de Poppe expected Ethereum to outperform Bitcoin in the coming period
“I’d prefer to see a strong breakout above $2,575 for ETH. It’s currently remaining quite calm and under critical resistance,” Van De Poppe added.
