Technical Analysis
Bitcoin
On the Bitcoin 4H chart, we can see that the $10,700 level has been rejected twice, the last time was yesterday's evening with a sharp candle showing a large upper shadow, looking like a reversal bar.
After that, the price is creating a string of small-bodied candles with decreasing volume slightly above the $10,500 level, which seems to act as a support. We see, also, that the price is slowly approaching the mid-line of the Bollinger Bands. That is a typical behaviour, as we have stated in previous articles. From there, the most common scenario is the continuation of the previous price action.
The MACD made a crossover to the downside, but it could switch to the upper side again with a strong candle, to this information is not relevant by itself.
Ethereum
Ethereum lost most of the gains acquired during the first two days of the week. The price was rejected from the $180 level, crossed the $175 level and is currently below its support of $173. The candlestick still has two more hours to close, but if Ethereum does not find buyers soon, it will continue moving towards the base at $167.6. Its MACD has made a bearish crossover some hours ago and seems to confirm this price action. On the ETH 4H chart can observe, also, that the price has moved to below the -1-line of the Bollinger bands. Another indication of a trend change.

Monero
Monero has been moving up lately om good volume. Today, XMR closed above $75, although it is seen selling pressure currently. The price continues moving near its +1-BBline, while the Bollinger lines are pointing to the upside, and MACD holding on its bullish phase.
Therefore, unless Bitcoin sellers create a substantial drop, we see this altcoin escalating towards $77. For your convenience, key support and resistance levels are labelled on the chart.
