Latest Market Overview 29th April: SPX, DXY, BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL, XRP, TON, DOGE, ADA
The Bitcoin market and alternative cryptocurrencies are edging towards robust support levels, which are anticipated to endure in the immediate future.
Throughout April, Bitcoin has experienced a decline of approximately 12%. If the current downward trend persists, this month will mark the poorest performance since November 2022, as data from CoinGlass indicates. Additionally, historical data suggests that May presents challenges for Bitcoin bulls, with harmful monthly closures observed over the past three years.
The prevailing uncertainty surrounding Bitcoin’s price trajectory has led to consecutive days of net outflows from spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds since April 24, according to insights from Farside Investors. This trend implies a cautious approach among traders awaiting a resurgence in Bitcoin’s upward momentum before re-entering the market.
Even as Bitcoin searches for direction, select altcoins may start to perform. Analysts from crypto analytics platform Santiment said the gas fees on the Ethereum network fell to a six-month low, indicating a “lack of demand and strain on the network.” This suggests a market bottom, which could trigger a possible turnaround in Ether and associated altcoins “sooner than many may expect.”
What are the critical support levels to watch out for in Bitcoin and altcoins? Let’s analyze the charts to find out.
S&P 500 Index (SPX) Market Analysis
The S&P 500 Index has been trading below the moving averages for the past few days, but the bears failed to capitalize on the advantage. This shows solid buying at lower levels.
The index has reached the moving averages, a vital level to watch. If the price rises above the moving averages, the index could rally to 5,200 and then to an all-time high of 5,265. The bears are expected to defend the level vigorously.
Conversely, if the price turns down sharply from the moving averages, it will suggest that the bears are trying to take control. The index may drop to 4,990 and then to 4,953. A break below this support could drag the price to the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of 4,821.
U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) Market Analysis
The U.S. Dollar Index has been rising inside an ascending channel pattern for the past few days, indicating an up move.
The price turned down from the channel’s resistance line on April 17, and the index fell to the 20-day exponential moving average ($105). The price rebounded off the 20-day EMA on April 26, but the bulls could not sustain the higher levels. This shows selling on relief rallies.
If the 20-day EMA gives way, it will tilt the short-term advantage in favour of the bears. The index may continue to trade inside the channel for a few more days. The index could slide to the 50-day simple moving average (104) and then to the support line.
Bitcoin (BTC) Market Analysis
The Bitcoin market has been gradually falling toward critical support at $59,600, where the bulls will likely mount a strong defence.
If the price turns sharply from $59,600, it will indicate that the bulls are unwilling to give up without a fight. The BTC/USDT pair could rise to the 20-day EMA ($64,897) and the 50-day SMA ($67,091). A break above this level will clear the path for a possible retest of $73,777.
This optimistic view could be negated in the near term if the price continues lower and breaks below $59,600. That could accelerate selling and pull the pair toward the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of $54,298.
Ether (ETH) Price Analysis
Ether rose above the 20-day EMA ($3,214) on April 27, but the bulls could not overcome the barrier at the 50-day SMA ($3,397).
The price was turned down from the 50-day SMA on April 28, indicating that the bears sell at every minor relief rally. The ETH/USDT pair could drop to $3,056. If the price rebounds off this level with strength, it will indicate that the bulls are trying to flip $3,056 into support. If that happens, the bulls will make another attempt to drive the price above the 50-day SMA.
Instead, if the price breaks below $3,056, it will suggest that the bears remain in charge. The pair may then slump to the pivotal support at $2,850.
BNB Price Analysis
If the price skids below the moving averages, it will suggest that the bears are fiercely defending the overhead resistance at $635. The BNB/USDT pair could descend to the strong support at $495.
Contrary to this assumption, if the price rebounds off the moving averages, it will suggest that the sentiment has turned positive and traders are buying on dips. That will enhance the prospects of a rally above $635. The pair may then climb to $692.
Solana (SOL) Price Analysis
If the price rebounds off $126 with strength, it will suggest solid buying at lower levels. The SOL/USDT pair could reach the 20-day EMA ($149). If the price turns down from the 20-day EMA, it will increase the likelihood of a collapse below $126.
Alternatively, if the price breaks above the 20-day EMA, it will suggest that the pair may extend its stay inside the $126 to $162 zone for a while. The next directional move may begin on a break above $162 or below $126.
XRP Price Analysis
The downsloping 20-day EMA ($0.53) and the RSI in the negative zone suggest that the bears have the upper hand. The XRP/USDT pair could descend to the strong support zone between $0.46 and $0.41. Buyers are expected to defend this zone with all their might because a break below it may sink the pair to $0.35.
If the price rises and breaks above the 20-day EMA, it will suggest that bulls are attempting a comeback. The buyers will gain strength on a break and close above the 50-day SMA ($0.58).
Toncoin (TON) Price Analysis
Toncoin (TON) bounced off the 50-day SMA ($5.27) on April 27, but the relief rally could not even reach the 20-day EMA ($5.70). This shows that every minor rally is being sold into.
If the price continues lower and breaks below the 50-day SMA, it will signal the start of the next leg of the downtrend. The TON/USDT pair could tumble to $4.7 and $4.50.
However, the bulls are likely to have other plans. They will try to push the price above the 20-day EMA and signal a comeback. The pair may then rise to the channel’s support line, where the bears will likely mount a strong defence. If buyers drive the price into the channel, it will suggest that the correction may have ended.
Dogecoin (DOGE) Price Analysis
The DOGE/USDT pair could decline to the strong support at $0.12, where the bulls are likely to step in. A weak bounce off $0.12 will increase the likelihood of a breakdown. If that happens, the pair may slump to $0.08.
On the upside, the zone between the 20-day EMA ($0.16) and the downtrend line will likely be a significant hurdle. Buyers will have to overcome this obstacle to signal that the downtrend could be ending.
Cardano (ADA) Price Analysis
The downsloping moving averages and the RSI in the negative territory suggest that the path of least resistance is to the downside. If the price sustains below $0.46, the ADA/USDT pair could drop to $0.40.
This negative view will be invalidated soon if the price rises and breaks above $0.52. That could propel the price to the 50-day SMA ($0.58), where bears may pose a substantial challenge again.
