Ripple Price Weekly Forecast: XRP/USD focus shifts to $0.25, is Coronavirus giving back?

After spending an entire week in shambles, the cryptocurrency market has started to wake up to the investors call.

Ethereum Price Analysis: ETH/USD may retreat to $134.00 before another leg higher

ETH/USD jumped as high as $152.50 on Friday before retreating to $148.00. The second-largest digital asset has gained over 8% since the beginning of the day and nearly 23% on a day-to-day basis, moving in sync with the market. The bullish sentiments helped the coin to settle above the upper line of 1-hour Bollinger Band, however, the further upside may be limited at this stage, as the asset is deeply overbought at least on the intraday charts.
