Market picture
The crypto market lost 4% in 24 hours, falling to a capitalisation of $2.53 trillion. Bitcoin (-3.7%), Ethereum (-4.5%) and BNB (-3.5%) are all down by the same amount. Solana (-6.4%) and Doge (-7.9%) are lagging the market, not to mention the systematically weak Avalanche (-7% for the day and -17% for 7 days) and Cardano (-4.5% for the day and -19% for 30 days).
A promising consolidation has yet to bear fruit. For Bitcoin, the bullish chart picture has not changed: we see only an extension of the consolidation after the rally from the January lows to mid-March. The next key support area is $62.8-63.0K, where the 50-day moving average and the lows of the corrective pullback in March are centred.
Ethereum has been testing the 50-day MA since the beginning of the day, which actively played the role of support in March. It has been rising steadily since the end of last year, but too much distance from it has caused corrections on more than one occasion.
