Bitcoin has had a volatile day, dipping below support at $103,000 before buyers returned to the market, sending it back up towards $106,000. The stabilization comes during market uncertainty, with altcoins showing mixed recovery signals. Investors are closely monitoring key technical indicators to gauge the potential for sustained recovery or further declines.

Bitcoin's Key Support and Resistance Levels

Bitcoin dropped sharply in recent days, testing the all-important $103,000 level of support. Traders are eagerly eyeballing this area, as it may act as a floor for continued downside moves. Buyers quickly took in the shortfall, sending the price back up toward $106,000. This implies that there is some underlying demand at much lower levels.

The 50-day simple moving average (SMA) is an important support level and stepping stone to further recovery. A continued move above this level on a closing basis would likely indicate a return of bullish momentum. On the downside, there is a risk of the downside pressure continuing if it fails to hold above the 50-day SMA.

Bitcoin’s 20-day EMA is flattening, which is the first sign that the recent strong upward move could be slowing. Compared to Bitcoin’s price, the relative strength index (RSI), a popular trend-following momentum indicator, is neutral indicating no clear overbought or oversold conditions. Escalating market indecision calls for a vigilant watch over price action. Watch out for important support and resistance levels.

Altcoin Performance Overview

Cardano (ADA) is under selling pressure below its 50-day SMA. Failure to clear this moving average shows ongoing demand exhaustion. If the downside trend continues, watch for further support found at $0.60 and then at $0.50. Any break below these support zones would open the floodgates for greater downside.

Chainlink (LINK) is still stuck under a huge descending channel, a formation that’s generally considered bearish. For Chainlink to set the stage for a bullish reversal, a clear break above $16 will be needed. Until that happens, the crypto might keep on fluctuating in the range of the descending channel.

Dogecoin (DOGE) is these days trying to hang above the crucial make or spoil $0.16 improve. This level is very important for Dogecoin. If it breaks below, we may have a significant sell-off, but if it holds firm it would allow for the potential of a bottoming process. A break and close below this level could give investors an idea of what Dogecoin will do next.

Ether and Other Altcoins

Ether faced rejection around $2,879 and then fell under its 20-day EMA. This action represents a material change in character, as the momentum begins to turn, and sellers take the upper hand in the near term. Finally, the 20-day EMA is flattening, just like Bitcoin, leading us to believe that the recent uptrend could be fading.

Ether's relative strength index (RSI) is neutral, mirroring Bitcoin's market indecision. Traders will be looking for a decisive break above or below these key levels to get an indication of Ether’s next direction.

After breaking the ascending channel, Solana (SOL) is now retesting the breakout level as its critical support zone at $140. This level is significant for Solana, with a daily close underneath opening the floodgates for more downside. Sui (SUI) is battling to maintain support at $2.86. Traders are nervously waiting to see if it can hold above this flat line or whether a move downward is inevitable.
