Source: Coin360.comBTC/EUROn the 6-hour chart (6H), the price of Bitcoin continues to consolidate near the lower line of the “ascending channel”:We don’t expect any significant price increase in the next few days. That’s why the most probable scenario is a price consolidation near the lower line of the “ascending channel” (or €9.250) and slightly above the upper level of the support range (or €8,750).ETH/EUROn the 12-hour chart (12H), the price of Ethereum is fluctuating between the starting point of the “descending channel” (or €225) and the level of the last local high (or €265):In our view, the main part of the ETH/EUR chart will stay within the broad range mentioned above, at least till the end of the week.LTC/EURIn the 4-hour time frame (4H), last week the price of Litecoin stabilized within the support range between €64 and €71 per one digital coin:As seen in the chart above, LTC/EUR is trying to draw an “ascending channel”. It is very likely that the price of Litecoin will continue to hover near the lower line of the channel. Thus, it may advance to the level of the previous local high or €77.50.Stay updated on everything Bitcoin-related with Bitvalex.
