The cryptocurrency market has seen increased volatility recently, particularly affecting major assets like Bitcoin due to resurfacing geopolitical issues. This has reintroduced selling pressure in the markets. What can be expected for Bitcoin and Ethereum? We explore this with detailed chart analyses.

A crucial support level to watch on the Bitcoin chart is $63,097. A close below this level in a four-hour bar could increase selling pressure for Bitcoin. The key resistance level to monitor is the EMA 200 average at $67,261. A close above this level in a four-hour bar could accelerate Bitcoin’s price momentum.
Ethereum Chart Analysis
