Monday in the Crypto Market: BTC and ETH Analysis for 04/09/23

As indicated in the previous review, BTC experienced low volatility over the weekend. Currently, the asset is trading between the support zones of $25,350-$25,800 and resistance levels of $26,300-$26,600. If the asset trends upward, buyers are likely to encounter resistance at $27,200 and further within the $27,700-$28,200 range.

Should BTC maintain its downward momentum, we could expect buyers to step in around the $25,000 mark, which serves as a significant psychological threshold reflecting current market sentiment. If this level is breached, the BTC price could dip below $24,000.

Ethereum's correlation with BTC remains strikingly high. At present, the ETH chart highlights two horizontal channels: one between the support of $1,625 and the resistance of $1,650, and another wider range between the support zones of $1,582-$1,606 and resistance bands of $1,660-$1,689.

If Ethereum breaks above these channels, it could challenge the resistance at $1,715 and venture into the $1,726-$1,745 range. However, if the bulls fail to surpass these marks, the cryptocurrency may see a decline, potentially revisiting recent lows. 

Outside this consolidation range, the crucial support level stands at $1,550.

This week, there aren't many significant macroeconomic developments anticipated. The sole event that might spike volatility in the cryptocurrency market is the release of US unemployment claims scheduled for Thursday, September 7. Additionally, as we enter the fall, the market could witness increased liquidity and volatility, given that the summer months are generally quieter periods in the financial markets.
