The Simple Moving Average (SMA) is about to record a bullish convergence on the 1D timeframe, and its MACD indicator is recording a similar trend trajectory on the Bitcoin price chart. This highlights the positive sentiment towards the star cryptocurrency.
Sustaining the price above the $73,750 support would set the stage for BTC price to move towards the $80,000 level in the coming weekend. On the other hand, a trend reversal could pull the market leader towards the $70,000 range.
Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum price rose by about 8% and was one of the best performing altcoins on the front page today. Notably, it rose by 15.01% and revisited the $28,000 level.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) recorded a sharp rise in the Ethereum price chart, with a bullish crossover of its average trendline. The altcoin leader highlighted the increase in buying pressure as the bullish sentiment of the EMA 50/200 day continued to rise.
If the market continues to be bullish, ETH price will drop towards the overhead resistance of $3,200 this month. Conversely, if the bears outperform the bulls, Ethereum price may retest the $2,500 support level.
Ripple (XRP)
XRP has gained 2.64% in the past day and 5.62% in the past week. Moreover, its value is now over $0.54. This makes it a 2-month high.
TradingView:XRP/USDT
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) continues to rise in the green histogram, with its average showing an increasing positive influence. This suggests that the XRP token is likely to continue to appreciate in value in the coming period.
If the bulls continue to gain momentum, the XRP price will move towards its local highs at $0.630. Conversely, if the bears dominate the crypto space, this altcoin might retest its lower support at $0.50.
