BTC

BTC has been decreasing inside a short-term descending parallel channel since Aug. 29. Such channels usually contain corrective structures

On Sept. 1, BTC briefly swept the lows below $46,800 before reclaiming the horizontal support area. 

The MACD and RSI are both gradually turning bullish. Therefore, an eventual breakout is likely.

ETH

ETH has been moving upwards since July 20, when it was trading at a low of $1,706. On Aug. 13, it reached a high of $3,327 but was rejected by the 0.618 Fib retracement resistance level at $3,375. 

After consolidating for 18 days, ETH broke out on Aug. 31. 

It seems that the movement is part of wave five of a bullish impulse. 

The most likely target for the top of the movement is between $3,761 and $3,813. The target is found by projecting the length of wave one (black) and the 0.382 length of waves 1-3 (orange). 

The next most likely target is at $4,150, followed by a potential new all-time high at $4,775.

XRP

XRP has been increasing since July 20. On Aug. 13, it managed to break out above the $1.05 horizontal area. Afterwards, it returned and validated the area as support.

The XRP movement seems similar to that of ETH, with the exception that XRP is still in wave four, which has taken the shape of a symmetrical triangle.

A potential target for the top of the upward movement is at $1.65. The target is found using the 0.618 length of waves 1-3 and coincides with a horizontal resistance area.

LUNA

LUNA has been moving upwards since July 20. On Aug. 1, it broke out from a descending resistance line and proceeded to reach a new all-time high price of $36.89 on Aug. 29.

The high was combined with bearish divergence in the RSI. Furthermore, it was reached right at the 1.61 external Fib retracement resistance level.

LUNA has been decreasing since and is attempting to hold on above the $30.50 horizontal support area.

DOT

DOT has been moving upwards since July 20 in what resembles a parabolic upward movement. On Aug. 21, it was rejected by the $29 horizontal resistance area. 

However, after a slight drop, it managed to break out amidst a bullish engulfing candlestick on Aug. 31. The breakout transpired with considerable volume. 

While there is a potential bearish divergence in the RSI, both it and the MACD are moving upwards. 

The next closest resistance is at $41.

UNI

UNI has been increasing since reaching a low of $14.01 on July 21. 

On Aug. 11, it initially moved above the $19 resistance level, but fell right below it afterwards. At the time, this seemed like a deviation (red circle) that is followed by a downward movement.

However, UNI began another upward movement and broke out on Aug. 30.

ANKR had been decreasing inside a descending parallel channel since March 28. 

However, it bounced on June 22 and has been moving upwards since. 

On Aug. 14, ANKR managed to break out from the channel. However, it has not initiated a significant upward movement yet. 

Despite the lack of an upward movement, the RSI has generated considerable hidden bullish divergence, a sign of trend continuation. 

The closest resistance area is at $0.152.
