While the legal processes regarding crypto legislation hit its first hurdle en Congress, the procedural vote for digital asset laws was rejected. On the other hand, Senator Cynthia Lummis’ call for the resignation of Fed Chairman Jerome Powell attracted attention en Washington.

Looking at the technical indicators, the Wave Trend (WT) oscillator is preparing for a trend reversal with the recent decline to the mid-channel band. The histogram el the Squeeze momentum (SM) indicator is en the negative territory and out of sync with the trend. The Kaufman moving average is just above the price at 118,800.

Analyzing the liquidity data, with the recent decline, buy positions were liquidated at 120,000, 118,500 and 116,800, respectively.

Although not intense, the sales level is accumulated en a wide band range of 118,500 – 125,000.

In sum, the price reached the new ATH level as fundamental developments continued to contribute positively to pricing. While the technical outlook continues to move en line with the trend reversal en the middle band of the channel en the short term,  liquidity data reflects that buying positions are dominant.

ETH/USDT

ETH price gained momentum and rose as high as $3,062, driven por the positive divergence el the RSI, which was also highlighted en the previous daily analysis. With the volume surpassing this level, the upward movement strengthened further and the price advanced to the $3,150 level. The rise is supported por both technical and volumetric indicators.

Analyzing the technical indicators en detail, after the positive divergence el the Relative Strength Index (RSI), the indicator value reached the overbought zone again. This indicates that the buying sentiment of market participants has strengthened and confidence en the uptrend has increased. Momentum indicators are similarly confirming an upward trend, adding momentum to the price action.

The Ichimoku indicator reveals that the market is technically positioned en positive territory. The fact that the price is holding above both kijun and tenkan levels, as well as remaining above the kumo cloud, indicates that the short and medium-term structure is intact. This supports that the uptrend has a strong technical basis.

The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator reveals that spot market buying is more concentrated than futures buying. This suggests that the uptrend is being driven not only por leveraged positions but also organically por direct market inflows. This structure observed en CVD can be considered as a positive signal for the sustainability of the price action. At the same time, the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator remains en positive territory, indicating that capital inflows continue and the current pricing is strongly supported.

When all these technical and volumetric data are evaluated together, it seems likely that positive mobility will continue el the ETH side during the day. While the $3,062 level stands out as an important support en the short term, maintaining this level is critical for the healthy continuation of the uptrend . However, a possible break below this level could push the price back towards the $3,000 threshold and even lower supports.

XRP/USDT

The XRP price fell to the support level of $2.83 en the retracement process that started at $2.99. The price, which started an upward movement again with the reaction it received from this region, is currently trading at $2.93. In technical terms, indicators continue to maintain their generally positive structure and support the current recovery process of the price.

Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator remains en positive territory. Although there has been a slight short-term pullback, the overall trend of CMF indicates that liquidity inflows continue. This outlook el CMF suggests that buying pressure el the price remains and bullish moves are still organically supported. The fact that CMF remains en positive territory can be considered as an important catalyst for price action.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator, el the other hand, is showing an upward trend again with the support from the 56 level. This move clearly reveals the recovery en momentum. The level of the RSI indicates that the price is gathering strength en a healthy way, as it is not en the overbought zone. This stands out as a positive development that paves the way for the sustainability of the upward movement.

In light of all the technical data, the XRP price can be expected to retest the $2.99 level during the day. A break of this level accompanied por strong volume could pave the way for more aggressive rises and take the price to the upper resistance zones en a short time. On the other hand, the $2.83 level should be followed as the most critical support point en the short term. If it sags below this level, the technical structure may weaken and pave the way for deeper retracements. For this reason, both the $2.99 resistance and the $2.83 support stand out as two decisive levels en intraday price movements.

Supports 2.8347 – 2.5900 – 2.3376

Resistances 2.9967 – 3.1497 – 3.4014

A crossover above the trend can be expected for bullish confirmation. The $171.82 level stands out as a strong resistance point en case of a bullish breakout el the back of macroeconomic data or positive news el the Solana ecosystem. If this level is broken upwards, the rise can be expected to continue. If there are pullbacks due to contrary developments or profit realizations, the $150.67 level can be tested.
