Top Five Cryptocurrencies

BTC/USD

The coin edges closer to testing its fourteen-day low at $93,340. However, indicators suggests it may slip lower this time. The moving average convergence divergence flipped bearish due to the price declines. The 12-day EMA intercepted the 26-day EMA a few hours ago and negative divergence is ongoing.

The derivatives market sees more activity as funding rates slightly increases. Open interest grew by almost 5% the bulls were the top losers.

Bitcoin risk further declines. Previous price movement points to significant demand concentration at $93,300. A slip below this mark may see the coin dip as low as $90k. The Fibonacci retracement levels point to a possible dip $88k.

Conversely, a shift in fundamentals may alter the current trend. However, there is a low chance of breaking above $100k this week.

HBAR/USD

Hedera was on the verge of breaking above its seven-day but faced massive rejection at $0.227. The asset retraced as traders took profit, dipping to a low of $0.200 before rebounding.

The cryptocurrency rebounded a few percent shy of its seven-day low. However, its decline enters day, with the altcoin losing over 2%.

MACD is unaffected by the latest price dips. The metric displayed a bullish divergence a few days ago. The histogram associated with the indicator shows a longer green bar. Nonetheless, RSI dips lower, indicating notable selling pressure.

Previous price movement shows it may slip below $0.200. However, it risks dipping to the 61% fib level at $0.180. On the other hand, it may recover and retest the $0.23 resistance.

Nonetheless, the Bollinger band shows the asset is gearing up for a breakout. The band is tightening due to lesser volatilty. The cryptocurrency also trades below the lower band.

SEI/USD

SEI recently broke out. It surged from $0.23 on Thursday to a high of $0.27.  It edged closer to $0.30 two days later but peaked at $0.29. Nonetheless, the asset created a new short-term support level.

Nonetheless, the bollinger bands suggests an impending decline. The asset broke above the upper SMA on Friday and maintains trading above it. The indicators points to the fact that the cryptocurrency is due for a trend reversal.

It is worth noting there is a high chance of further surge as the bollinger band was tightening a few days before the breakout. The metric may continue to expand as volatilty increases. This may guarantee a flip of the $0.30 barrier. Nonetheless, It risk declining to $0.25 before the week runs out.

ENA/USD

ENA is one of the top gainer in the last 24 hours. It opened trading at $0.44 but dipped to a low of $0.37 as it lost the $0.40 support.
