BTC and ETH Chart Analysis for July 31, 2023

Over the weekend, Bitcoin continued to trade sideways within the support level of $29,000 and the resistance level of $29 600. Notably, the attack on the Curve platform, which led to a loss exceeding $50 million, didn't sway the market trajectory of the main cryptocurrency.

The upward trend remains ongoing, yet there is still room for further correction and a possibility for a new local low. In this scenario, we could potentially see buying orders emerging around the $28,500 mark and within the $26,700-$28,000 zone. As long as the asset's price remains above the psychological threshold of $25,000, we can anticipate the bullish trend to persist.

For Bitcoin's upward trajectory to continue, it must break through the resistance zone between $26,700 and $30,100, and establish itself above the $30,400 mark. However, this upward shift must be complemented by significant trading volumes; otherwise, any bullish price movement might be nullified by aggressive selling.

Over the weekend, ETH maintained a relatively stable trajectory. The asset's price continues to oscillate between the support range of $1,805-$1,850 and the resistance zone of $1,905-$1,930. If the buying pressure mounts, ETH could reach a fresh local high above the $1,973-$2,026 range.

The asset still maintains a strong correlation with the BTC price movement. Should the correction continue, ETH could drop to test the $1,725-$1,770 support zone and the buyer's level at $1700.

Yesterday, Bitcoin's volatility index reached a fresh low, slipping below the 0.33 mark for the first time since January 7. The last time this happened, Bitcoin experienced an explosive increase, jumping from $16,000 to $25,000 in a single month.

Moving forward, it wouldn't be surprising to see a dramatic uptick in Bitcoin's volatility, resulting in a sudden shift in the asset's price in either direction. Consequently, anyone considering new trades should tread carefully.
