s we wrap up the week, here's a brief overview of the key technical developments in the crypto market.

‍7 Days Heatmap

‍After breaking below the $66,500 structure, BTC dipped by -1.48%, and ETH followed, closing the week down by -2.11%.

This bearish movement in BTC was reflected across the entire crypto market, with almost all altcoins closing the week on a bearish note as well.

BTC Analysis

‍After breaking below the $66,500 support, BTC has been overall bearish, trading within the falling channel marked in blue.

For the bulls to regain control, a break above the upper blue trendline and the last major high at $66,500 is needed.

Meanwhile, BTC remains bearish and can still trade lower towards the $62,000 support level.

‍ETH Analysis

‍As per our previous outlook, ETH rejected the $3,435 support level and traded higher.

Currently, ETH has been hovering within a narrow range between $3,435 and $3,665, forming an inverse head and shoulders pattern.

For the bulls to maintain control, a break above the neckline marked in red at $3,665 is needed.

In parallel, if the $3,435 support level is broken downward, a bearish continuation towards the $3,180 demand would be anticipated.
