Cryptocurrency Price Analysis – week 13 and YTD, 2021

Last week, altcoins continued, if not accelerated, their rally. After a month or so of consolidation, we’re seeing many bullish formations and breakouts. Check our curated charts for examples updated daily (click on curated charts tab).

BTC and ETH were up, and altcoins posted overwhelmingly positive performance among the top 50 coins by market cap (see charts below).

Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) were up 2.8% and 19.9% (versus prior week’s -2.3% and -4.2%), respectively.  BTC was rejected at $60K resistance area, again (3x now), but this Ascending Triangle is still likely to resolve in a bullish breakout.  Meanwhile, Ethereum broke through $2K resistance, clearing the way to $2,300-2,500 levels.

During the last two weeks, we posted videos with analyses and trades of THETA, TRX, BNB, XTZ, LINK and SNX breakouts, which have gained 50%, 100%, 10%, 7%, -1% and – 4%. You can view these on our YouTube channel.<

Also, reminder that altFINS came out of Beta and launched subscriptions.  There will continue to be a free tier, albeit with limited access.  Until April 6th, users can lock in lifetime 15-30% discounts.
