Bitcoin trades sideways in what looks more like a consolidation of the bear trend than a reversal pattern. This means we are more likely to head lower eventually as we hold strong resistance at 35500/36000.
HOWEVER, a break above 36500 is a short-term buy signal so be ready to reverse out of any shorts & into longs.
Ripple managing a small recovery to strong resistance at 0.7100/7300. This is now key to direction. So bulls need a clear break above here for a short-term buy signal.
Ethereum has climbed steadily to strong resistance at 2300/2350 into the end of the week.
