Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple set their eyes on higher targets

  • Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple are on the rise after dropping over the weekend.
  • The three cryptocurrencies have new targets set for them on the upside.
  • The Confluence Detector shows clusters of technical levels according to their importance.

BTC/USD has two targets

After rising from the lows,  the price of Bitcoin  faces an initial hurdle at $7,598  which is the convergence of the Fibonacci 38.2% one’day, the Simple Moving Average 5’1d, the SMA 100’1h, the 4h’high, and the Bolinger Band one-hour Middle.

Yet it faces two higher and more interesting targets above: $7,743  is the confluence of the Fibonacci 23.6% one-month, the Pivot Point one-week Resistance 1, and the Bolinger Band one-day Middle. Further above, the $81,78  level is the Fibonacci 38.2% one-month which is backed up by the SMA 200-4h.

Looking down, Bitcoin has some support waiting at $7,453  which is the congestion of the Simple Moving Average 50-15m, the SMA 10-1h, the Bolinger Band 15m-Middle Stdv. 2.2, the SMA-5, the SMA-10-one day, the Bolinger Band one-hour Middle, and the Fibonacci 38.2% one-week

Further down, $7,053  is the meeting point of the one-month low and the one-week low.

This is how it looks:

ETH/USD major breakout

The  Ethereum Price  moved above a major level of resistance around $600. This is the congestion of the Fibonacci 38.2% one-day, the 4h-high, the Bolinger Band 1h-Middle, the Simple Moving Average 200-15m, the Bolinger Band 15m-Upper, the SMA 50-1h, and the Bolinger Band 1h-Upper.

Earlier, ETH/USD moved above $593  which is the convergence of the Fibonacci 23.6% one-day, the one-week high, the SMA 10-15m, and the SMA 5-1d.

So, what’s next? $648  remains a key target: it is the confluence of the all-important Pivot Point one-day Resistance 2, the Fibonacci 161.8% one-week, and the Pivot Point one-week Resistance 2.   Above that level, there are no significant limits at least until $700.

XRP/USD has further targets

The price of Ripple is moving up  as well and faces a clear resistance area around $0.6970. At this level, XRP/USD meets the Fibonacci 38.2% one-month, the Pivot Point one-day Resistance 1, and the Simple Moving Average 200-4h.

The next target is $0.7366  which is the convergence of the Pivot Point one-week Resistance 3 and the Pivot Point one-day Resistance 2.

Looking down, support awaits at $0.6525  is the confluence of the Bolinger Band 15m-Lower, the Pivot Point one-week Resistance 1, and the Fibonacci 23.6% one-day. Lower, $0.6366  is a support line as it is the one-day high and the Fibonacci 23.6% one-month, a very powerful line.

This is how it looks:

The Confluence Detector finds  exciting opportunities using Technical Confluences.  The TC is a tool to locate and point out those price levels where there is a  congestion of indicators,  moving averages, Fibonacci levels, Pivot Points, etc. Knowing where these congestion points are located is very useful for the trader, and can be used as a basis for different strategies.

This tool assigns a certain amount of “weight” to each indicator, and this “weight” can influence  adjacents  price levels. These weightings mean that one  price level without any indicator  or moving average but under the influence of two “strongly weighted” levels accumulate more resistance than their neighbors. In these cases, the tool signals resistance in apparently empty areas.
