The forecast of a decline to the area of $51,600 remains relevant; however, if buyers are able to fix above the two-hour EMA55 by the end of the day, then bulls will resume their attempts to return the pair above the uptrend line.

Bitcoin is trading at $56,500 at press time.

ETH/USD

Yesterday, the level of $1,660 was holding back the selling pressure. The Ethereum (ETH) price has pierced this level several times but is still holding above it.
