Another bearish impulse knocked the pair out of the ascending channel and tested the support at $45,000. The BTC price bounced above the trend line, but the pair could not hold out in the upward channel until morning. If bulls hold the $45,000 level, there are chances of seeing a short-term rise to $50,000.
Bitcoin is trading at $46,590 at press time.

As of this morning, the volume of sales has decreased. But even at low trading volumes, the pair may go down to the support around $1,300. One believes that this level will stop the decline and allow the pair to consolidate sideways.

XRP/USD
Yesterday morning, strong bullish momentum tried to restore the XRP/USD pair to the upward channel. The price broke through the resistance of $0.60 and set a new February high at $0.649.
XRP/USD chart by TradingView
XRP looks more bullish than Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) in the short-term scenario. The selling trading volume is high, which means that most bears may have already closed their positions. In this case, there is a chance for a bounce-off to the vital mark at $0.50.
XRP is trading at $0.44 at press time.
