Bitcoin edging very slowly higher but I am not convinced this is the start of a bull trend.

Ripple seeing consolidation & narrowing ranges but I do not think this is a base building exercise. Same levels apply for today.

Ethereum however is seeing a push higher.

Today's Analysis

Bitcoin edging very slowly towards strong resistance at the 500 day moving average at 40400/40600. Above here meets 23.6% Fibonacci resistance at 41400/500.

Minor support levels for scalpers are at 37900/700 & 36900/800. Further losses target 36200/36000.

Ripple held first resistance at 6560/90 last week as predicted & holding 6300 so far this week. A break below the 100 week moving average at 6000/5900 obviously adds pressure for a retest of the low at 5600/5500. I would not bet on this holding on the next test & a break lower is an obvious sell signal. Look for a test of the last big swing low at 5100/5080. Again I doubt this will hold for long & a break below here is a disaster for bulls. Prices could go in to free fall!!!

Gains are likely to be limited & I doubt we will beat resistance at 6560/90. A break higher however meets a sell opportunity at 7350/7450. Stop above 7550. A break higher is a nice medium term buy signal. Buy & hold!!

Ethereum tests first resistance at 2800/2820 & holding here as I write. Shorts need stops above 2870. A break higher targets 2920, perhaps as far as strong resistance at 3000/3050.

Shorts at 2800/2820 target 2660/20, perhaps as far as 2570/50.
