“Every Champion was once a contender who refused to give up” – Rocky Balboa –
The crypto market continues to be stuck at the critical resistance levels and is beginning to show signs of depletion. The feeling on the charts is that the fight will go on for a few more rounds.
Elite boxing at its best currently sets the limit of fighting at 12 rounds, but in the last century, it was not unusual for fights to drag on until one of the two contestants kissed the canvas.
Neither King Bitcoin nor Altcoins' armies will throw in the towel. With an outstanding record of survival from attack, criticism, suspicion, regulation and theft, the crypto market is here to stay.
Not all projects will survive in the long run, and new ones will come to claim their share of the market.
Ether has reached a key resistance level in its fight against Bitcoin coinciding with key resistance levels against the USD and may need to ring the bell and give up a couple of rounds against Bitcoin looking to regain strength.
However, it's still possible that the eternal prince of cryptocurrencies will throw a winning punch and now he's playing a game of trickery.
The current Bitcoin dominance level is 64.44 while the SMA200 is currently moving at 67.31 while looking for the confluence with supports and trend lines at 66.50.
The indicators show an acceleration in momentum and an improvement in relative strength. The MACD still shows an immature profile to expect rapid rises in the dominance level.
