Bitcoin, Ethereum Technical Analysis: Bitcoin Hits $43,000 After Tesla Announcement


Following a strong weekend, bitcoin’s surge continued to start the week, as Tesla announced close to $2 billion worth of holdings in BTC. Overall, crypto markets were around 3% higher on Monday. Bitcoin


Bitcoin, which consolidated for the majority of last week, moved closer to a three-week high today, climbing by as much as 3% as of writing.


BTC/USD rose to an intraday high above $43,500.00 during Monday’s session, as markets reacted to the news that Tesla currently holds $1.9 billion in bitcoin.


The move came as bitcoin marginally broke out of its resistance level of $42,060 for the first time since January 21.


As of writing, the RSI also climbed to a high point, tracking above its long-term ceiling of 60, which it last hit in mid-November. BTC/USD – Daily Chart


Monday’s move has also led to a crossover of the 10-day (red) and 25-day (blue) moving averages, which many long-term bulls have been waiting for.


Bulls may take this as a sign to add more upward pressure to prices, with some targeting $45,000 as the next point of profit taking.


Ethereum


ETH was also tracking at multi-week highs on Monday, as bulls continue to flock to the world’s second largest cryptocurrency.


As of writing, ETH/USD climbed to a high of $3,111.16 today, after trading at $2,965.43 less than 24-hours ago.


Overall, ethereum is up over 20% in the last week, coming as its 14-RSI broke beyond two key resistance levels in that time.


The first break came after a break above 44 on February 3, followed by Saturday’s surge above the 55 ceiling. ETH/USD – Daily Chart


These moves have created a shift in both the 10-day and 25-day moving averages, which, similar to BTC, is set for a crossover. Tags in this story Bitcoin, Elon Musk, ETH, Ethereum, Technical Analysis, Tesla
