Technical Analysis - Bitcoin
Bitcoin's price has been weakening after the evening star formation made on March 20. Now the price has crossed the mid-Bollinger band and is moving below the -1SD line, while the MACD shifted to a bearish phase. That shows BTC has entered a descending leg. The next price support is at 5.500 and then at $5000. The overall mood of the financial markets may also affect it and continue heading lower.

Ethereum
Ethereum has followed the BTC path, and its price moved in a bearish way, now below its -1SD line and the MACD in a bearish phase. Currently, the $123 support is holding, but the overall trend points for a new visit of the $110 level and, maybe, down to the $100 support.

Ripple
We can see that Ripple is currently highly correlated to Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price action is drawing a similar figure to the above charts and is in the same situation: Price below -1SD line and MACD in a bearish phase. We see also that, in this case, the price moves in a sideways channel with $0.13 and $0.17 as its lower and upper limits. We suspect that currently, XRP is moving to a new visit to the lows of this channel.
