A rollback is possible this morning. If the price holds above $58,000, then the recovery will continue to the area of $60,000.

If bears push through $58,000, then the pair might return to the area of average prices ($56,400).

Bitcoin is trading at $57,840 at press time.

ADA/USD

Cardano (ADA) is the biggest gainer today. The rate of the altcoin has increased by 14.24% since yesterday.

Despite the sharp growth, the rise may continue as the coin has accumulated enough power. In this case, possible bearish pressure may accumulate in the area of $1.54.

Cardano is trading at $1.43 at press time.

BNB/USD

Binance Coin (BNB) is the second biggest gainer today as the rate of the native exchange coin has gone up by 5%.

After a false breakout of the $300 mark, the altcoin is about to restest it within the next few days. Thus, the value of the RSI indicator has not reached the overbought zone, which means that a rise is more likely than a drop.

BNB is trading at $264.90 at press time.

LTC/USD

The rate of Litecoin (LTC) has not shown such enormous growth as Cardano (ADA). The price of "digital silver" has risen by 1.88% over the past 24 hours.
