BTC Analysis

After breaking below the $86,500 structure we mentioned in our last market outlook, BTC’s momentum has shifted from bullish to bearish.

As long as the bears remain in control, the next support zone lies between $70,000 and $75,000.

Meanwhile, further downside pressure is expected.

ETH Analysis

ETH also broke below the $2,500 support level mentioned in our last roundup article.

Currently, ETH is approaching the lower bound of its falling channel and the $2,000 psychological level.

As long as the $2,000 support holds, the bulls still have an opportunity to step in from here.
