ARB and MKR: Altcoin Analysis for December 28, 2023
While Bitcoin stabilizes near the $43,000 mark, certain altcoins like ARB and MKR are witnessing growth and setting new records. Here’s a detailed analysis of the market situation for Arbitrum (ARB) and Maker (MKR) as of December 28, 2023.
Arbitrum (ARB)
For most of November and December, Arbitrum fluctuated in a narrow range between $1.0 and $1.2. The asset witnessed a rapid 44% increase starting December 22, reaching a new local high at $1.66.
Currently, Arbitrum oscillates between a support zone of $1.45-$1.51 and a resistance range of $1.61-$1.67. If BTC remains around the $43,000 mark, ARB's upward trajectory could continue, potentially challenging the resistance level at $1.7 and nearing its all-time high of $1.81.
A correction, though currently seeming less likely, could be triggered if Bitcoin declines, with key support levels at $1.39 and a range between $1.24-$1.32 possibly halting the downturn.

Maker (MKR)
MKR has appreciated by 28% since December 19, yet it remains significantly below its ATH. Given BTC's stable performance and a lack of major negative market influences, MKR's growth prospects appear strong.
The current key resistance level for MKR is at $1633. Surpassing this could accelerate Maker's upward momentum, possibly leading to a new high near $1770.
Should a correction occur, MKR might retreat to support zones at $1526-$1573, $1489, and $1397-$1442, with a further support level at $1362 being tested only if Bitcoin dips to $38,000.
