In the news today:

TOTALCAP Moves Above Pivotal Resistance

The cryptocurrency market cap has increased considerably in the past three weeks, creating successive bullish weekly candlesticks. The increase accelerated further this week.

TOTALCAP increased above the 0.618 Fib retracement resistance level of $2.15 trillion, reaching a high of $2.30 trillion yesterday.

If the increase continues, the next resistance is at $2.40 trillion, 6% above the current level.

Despite the bullish TOTALCAP price prediction, a sudden rejection could trigger a 4% drop to the $2.15 trillion support area.

Bitcoin Surges Above $63,000

Similar to TOTALCAP, the Bitcoin price has increased since the start of January. The upward movement led to a high of $57,615 today, the highest since 2021. This also led to a close above the horizontal and Fib retracement resistance level of $48,600.

Bitcoin then broke out through the $60,000 horizontal resistance area, the final one before a new all-time high price. However, it has yet to reach a weekly close above it. If it does, the next resistance area is at the all-time high of $69,057, 12% above the current BTC price.

Despite the bullish BTC price prediction, a weekly close below $60,000 can trigger a 20% drop to the closest support at $48,000.

FET Reaches New All-Time High

The FET price has increased parabolically during the past four weeks. The upward movement caused a breakout from the $0.85 horizontal resistance area, leading to a new all-time high price of $1.67 today. The movement has been parabolic, devoid of any retracement.

FET is moving towards the 1.61 external Fib retracement of the previous decrease at $1.91, 22% above the current price.
