Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Bitcoin, Avalanche & MATIC— American Wrap 18 April

MATIC price breaching this key level could trigger a 50% rally and turn 1.15 billion MATIC profitable

MATIC price currently resides among the few altcoins that have failed to mark any growth over the last two months. The altcoin, in particular, has been facing a barrier for the last month and a half, clearing which is crucial to initiate a bounce back to a price point last tagged by the cryptocurrency in February 2022.
Bitcoin dominance

Avalanche (AVAX) price is gearing up for bulls to hand them a simple but profitable trade. After the break above the red descending trend line on Monday, this week is shaping up for another bullish candle, making it the fourth in a row. Conscious bulls want to trade the 10% gain projected and not go shooting from the start just yet. Otherwise, the rally could get overheated and stall quickly.

AVAX/USD  Weekly chart
Bitcoin price shows a loss of bullish momentum, and it could be due to investors booking profits. Since BTC has produced a lower low, this move could trigger a notorious slide, catching late bulls off-guard.

PI price hovers around $0.1300 at press time on Thursday, reflecting a mild rebound from the $0.1186 record low reached earlier on the day. Deposits totaling roughly 1 million PI tokens on exchanges over the last 24 hours suggest waning investor confidence amid a broader market risk-off sentiment.

Billions in ETF outflows don’t bode well
