There was a break below a key bullish trend line with support near $41,900 on the hourly chart. It even traded below the $40,000 support and settled below the 21 simple moving average (H1). The current price action is bearish and seems like the bears are aiming for a test of $39,000.
The next major support is near the $38,550. Any more losses could send the price towards the $38,000 level in the near term.
Ethereum (ETH)
ETH also followed a similar pattern and started afresh decline from the $3,165 resistance zone. There was a move below the $3,100 support zone.
Ether declined below a major bullish trend line with support near $3,020 on the hourly chart. It settled below the $3,000 level and the 21 simple moving average (H1). The next major support is near the $2,930 level.
A downside break below the $2,930 support could push the price lower towards $2,840. On the upside, the previous support at $3,035 and the 21 simple moving average (H1) might act as a strong resistance.
Avalanche (AVAX)
AVAX attempted a major upside break above the $100 resistance. However, the bulls failed to gain strength above the $100 level.
A high was formed near $104 and the price started a major decline. There was a downside break below the $88 support level and the 21-day simple moving average. The price declined below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $65 swing low to the $104 high.
AVAX is now attempting a close below a crucial bullish trend line with support near $75 on the daily chart. If the bears succeed, the price could nosedive towards the $65 support. Any more losses may perhaps call for a test of the main $55 support zone in the coming days.
