XRP has been moving in a symmetric triangle, a pattern that is prone to rising or falling depending on the state of the market. The top of the triangle is currently where XRP is encountering strong resistance. Bulls have attempted to drive the price higher but the asset has not managed to achieve a significant breakout suggesting that the bullish momentum may not be strong enough at this time.

Even though it is short-term bearish the symmetrical triangle itself indicates a longer-term bullish trend. In the triangle the higher highs and lower lows correspond to the continuous tug-of-war between bears and bulls. On the other hand, the fact that XRP is unable to breach the upper trendline indicates that the bulls are currently losing the battle. Notwithstanding this, the general outlook for XRP is still cautiously positive.

There could be a bullish continuation if the asset is able to break above the crucial resistance level around $0.60. The bullish structure would hold if XRP were to decisively break above this level potentially leading to a retest of higher targets like $0.65 and beyond. The asset may drop to test lower support levels around $0.52 if the bears are successful in pushing XRP below the triangle's lower boundary. Short-term market sentiment may change as a result of this refuting the bullish thesis.

For XRP the next few days will be critical since traders will be watching for a verified breakout or breakdown from this symmetrical triangle pattern. Either scenario would be fueled by an increase in trading volume, which would show which side of the market is in control. The bull-bear battle is still going strong for the time being but a major change in direction could be approaching.

Toncoin's comeback

At $5.57 Toncoin broke through above the crucial 200 EMA. This is a significant event for the asset because a break above the 200 EMA is frequently interpreted as a fundamental change in the price trajectory suggesting the possibility of additional upward movement. TON's ability to maintain this rally and overcome more resistance levels especially those found at the 50 and 100 EMA price points is the crucial consideration to be aware of right now.

A more forceful and protracted bullish rally that builds on the present momentum may be possible if those levels are broken. It's crucial to keep in mind that Toncoin has been generally declining for a number of months even with this encouraging breakout. In other words even though the price action lately has been promising the overall downward trend that TON has seen cannot be entirely reversed.

Nevertheless, caution is still recommended. If the 50 or 100 EMA is not broken there may be a retrace that takes the price back to earlier levels of support. However, if the rally persists, TON might be about to enter a recovery phase, especially given the consistent inflows that have been supporting its upward trend.

Bitcoin not giving up

The $60,000 milestone has been successfully reached by Bitcoin after numerous tries in the past weeks. This barrier has long been seen as psychological and its breach has given rise to renewed optimism about a possible long-term market recovery. But despite the initial enthusiasm, things are not as bullish as they might seem in the bigger picture.

The 50 EMA and 100 EMA are crucial resistance levels even though BTC has crossed $60,000 in value. These two exponential moving averages are important tools for figuring out the short- to medium-term direction of prices. Since Bitcoin has been moving in a downward trend for a few months, it is still advisable to exercise caution until it breaks above these resistance levels.

Bitcoin must make a clear break above $62,000 in order to properly indicate a confirmed bullish trend reversal. In addition to representing a breach of the EMAs, this level would suggest that Bitcoin has acquired sufficient momentum to buck the recent decline. Maintaining a price above $62,000 would reassure investors and traders that Bitcoin is prepared for long-term growth, which might trigger another surge toward earlier all-time highs.

Retracement could occur if these crucial levels are not crossed and the momentum is not maintained. Should the price revert to the lower support levels around $57,000 or even $55,000, it might do so within the descending channel. To determine the next move, market players are keeping a close eye on these technical levels.
