Technical Analysis
Bitcoin
Bitcoin is moving in a sideways range between $9,180 and $9,580 as the Bollinger bands shrink, its MACD evolves in its bearish phase, and volume fades. This usually is a continuation pattern, but we need to see a breakout of this range, which also will make the Bollinger bands expand. The levels to observe are the same as yesterday's levels.

Ripple
Ripple is following the path we envisioned yesterday. Buyers don't have enough strength to push XRP above the 0.3065 level, and sellers can't move it below a $0.293 close, so it is moving inside this range waiting for a reason to break this equilibrium. The overall bias is bullish since the price is still moving above its 20, 50, and 200-period SMA.

Ethereum
Ethereum is moving slightly more positive than BTC or ETH. The price managed to make a short-term higher high in the last 24 hours and moves in the upper side of its Bollinger bands. On the 4H chart, we can observe ETH is moving in an ascending channel. That is a weak price structure, which is seldom concluded with a downward movement. The levels to keep are marked in the chart: a close above $193.23 would attract more buyers while closing below $184 might trigger more sales.

Litecoin
Litecoin is also creating a triangular structure, but, basically, it is ranging with low volume, waiting for others to make a decision. The key levels to observe are marked on the chart, surpassing one of these levels would be a confirmation of the next movement. Technically, the overall outlook is slightly bullish as the price is above +50 and 200-period SMA and is touching its 20-SMA line.
