Bitcoin (BTC) stopped within a whisker of psychological $9,000 on Sunday. While the coin managed to recover to $9,060 by press time, the upside momentum remains weak. BTC/USD has lost 1.2% since the beginning of the day and stayed mostly unchanged on a day-to-day basis. In recent days, the coin has been oscillating in a range limited by $9,000 on the downside and $9,300 on the upside. A sustainable move in either direction will define the short-term trend.

Ethereum attempted to recover above $210.00 on Sunday but quickly retreated to $205.50 by the time of writing. The second-largest digital asset needs to regain ground above $210.00 to improve the short-term technical picture and allow for a sustainable move towards $215.00, which is the upper boundary of the previous consolidation channel. The critical support is created by $200.00
