If today the moving average EMA55 keeps the price from falling towards the POC line ($32,600), then the recovery will continue to the resistance of $36,000.

Bitcoin is trading at $34,860 at press time.

EOS/USD

EOS is the only loser from the list today as the rate of the coin has fallen by 4.14% over the past 24 hours.

On the daily chart, EOS is bullish despite today's decline as the coin keeps trading above the vital level of $3. In addition, there is a high concentration of liquidity, which means that buyers are getting ready for the growth. In this case, one may expect the altcoin near the resistance of $3.45 shortly.

EOS is trading at $3.02 at press time.

ADA/USD

Cardano (ADA) is the top gainer today; its price has rocketed by more than 20% since yesterday.

Cardano (ADA) has set the new peak in 2021, having confirmed bulls' power. However, buyers might retest the mirror level at $0.4155 in order to continue the rise. Thus, the long-term buyers' dominance is also supported by the high trading volume.

Cardano is trading at $0.44 at press time.

LINK/USD

The rate of Chainlink (LINK) has also increased over the last day. The price change has accounted for 4.24%.
