USDT.D and BTC analysis

USDT.D DAILY chart overall bullish and currently rejecting a strong support at 5.45%. — *USDT.D Chart - Daily Timeframe*

As per our previous market outlook, USDT.D has been confined within a range around a massive support zone 5.33% - 5.45%.

The bulls will remain in control unless the support level at 5.33% is broken downward. If this occurs, a bearish continuation toward the lower orange trendline is expected.

USDT.D 4h chart showing the last major high at 5.82% that we need a break above for the bulls to take over. — *USDT.D Chart - 4H Timeframe*

On the 4-hour timeframe, after rejecting the 6.5% resistance zone, USDT.D has entered a bearish correction phase.

For the momentum to shift from bearish to bullish, a break above the last major high at 5.82% is necessary.

BTC daily chart bullish as long as it is trading above the $60,000 round number. — *BTC Chart - Daily Timeframe*

As per our previous analysis, BTC has been holding firmly above $60,000, which is a good sign that the bulls are still in control.

As long as the $58,000 support level holds, the bulls still have the potential to push the price higher toward the upper bound of the orange channel.

BTC 4h chart showing the structure at $62,800 that we need a break above for the bulls to take over. — *BTC Chart - 4H Timeframe*

For bullish pressure to persist on lower timeframes, a break above $62,800 is needed.

Meanwhile, if the $58,000 support is broken to the downside, another bearish impulse toward $52,000 would be expected.

5 Altcoins Analysis

‍Let's start with MKR. After rejecting the $4,000 resistance level, MKR has been bearish for almost four months.

Currently, MKR has found support around the $1,750 - $2,000 zone, so we will be looking for buy setups on lower timeframes.

MKR daily chart rejecting a massive support at $2. — *MKR Chart - Weekly Timeframe*

On the daily timeframe, the bulls have already taken over after breaking above the last minor high.

We are now expecting a correction phase toward the upper red trendline and the $2,800 supply zone.

MKR daily chart trading within a falling channel and currently rejecting the lower bound. — *MKR Chart - Daily Timeframe*

Turning our attention to RENDER, formerly RNDR, it has been bearish from both long-term and medium-term perspectives, trading within the falling orange and red channels, respectively.

Recently, RENDER found support around the round number of $5 and the lower bound of the channels.

For the bulls to take over in the medium term and initiate a correction phase toward the upper long-term trendline in orange, a break above the $5.5 mark is needed.

RENDER daily chart bearish but rejecting the lower bound of two channels and $5 round number. — *RENDER Chart - Daily Timeframe*

Next on the agenda is XDC. Although XDC has been bearish for almost a year, it still holds great potential in my opinion.

Currently, it is trading at a discount around its previous all-time low of $0.02, providing us with a massive opportunity and an edge to go long.

XDC weekly chart overall bearish and rejecting a previous all-time low at $0.02. — *XDC Chart - Weekly Timeframe*

Analyzing APT, after rejecting the $5 support level, APT surged by over 45%, signaling that the bulls are finally ready to step in.

As long as the $5 support holds, we will be looking for any bullish reversal setups to confirm bullish control.

APT weekly chart rejecting a strong round number at $5. — *APT Chart - Weekly Timeframe*

On the daily timeframe, APT is still overall bearish tho, trading within the falling channel marked in red.

For the impulse phase to start, a break above the red channel and the $8 resistance level is needed.

APT daily chart overall bearish trading within a falling channel as long as the $8 resistance holds. — *APT Chart - Daily Timeframe*

Lastly, let’s go over ETC.

ETC has been stuck within a broad range between $15 and $50. It is actually one of the cleanest setups to trade, especially since it is currently around a massive support level that has been respected multiple times in the past.

ETC weekly chart hovering within a range between $20 and $50. — *ETC Chart - Weekly Timeframe*

For the bulls to finally take over and push toward the $30 round number, a break above $20 is needed.

One way to trade it is to wait for ETC to retest the $20 resistance after it turns into support and then zoom in to look for any additional confirmation to go long.

ETC daily chart waiting for a break above $20 for the bulls to take over. — *ETC Chart - Daily Timeframe*
