Tezos price traps bulls, here's what could happen next

  • Tezos price trades at the lower half of the range after completely reversing the previous uptrend spike. 
  • On-chain metrics show bears are in profit while bulls have yet to capitulate.
  • Invalidation of the bearish thesis is a breach above $1.45.

Tezo's XTZ price could become problematic for investors as the price is falling rapidly during the second trading week of November. Furthermore, on-chain metrics hint that a volatile move could arise. Key levels have been defined to gauge XTZ's next potential move.

Traders should keep the digital asset on their watchlists in the coming days.

Tezos price in limbo

Tezos price could be setting up for a sweep-the-lows event in the coming hours after a 5% spike on Friday, November 4. The highly scalable blockchain token completely reversed throughout the weekend, printing prices below the $1.50 zone. 

Tezos price currently auctions at $1.35 as the bears are producing a penny-from-Eiffel-style decline on smaller time frames. The move south was catalyzed by a breach of the 8-day exponential moving average. The 21-day simple moving average failed to provide support shortly after. If market conditions persist, a sweep of the lows at $1.29 will be the first bearish target, and the October 12 swing low at 1.26 may also be in jeopardy.

Coinglass's Long vs. Short Ratio Indicator compounds the bearish idea. According to the indicator, 75% of all XTZ traders opened a long position during the rally on Friday, November 4. Tezos price traded between $1.35 and $1.44 at the time, which means bulls have much more decline to endure before capitulating.

Invalidation of the bearish thesis is a surpass of $1.45, based on the on-chain metrics. If the invalidation point is breached, an additional 10% hike could occur, targeting the psychological $1.50 zone.

 Top 3 Price Prediction: BTC consolidates gains, ETH defends support, XRP nears breakout trigger

Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple begin the week on a constructive note as the top three cryptocurrencies attempt to extend rebounds after recovering nearly 4%, 2% and 2.6%, respectively. BTC steadies around $65,600, ETH continues to hold firmly above the key $1,700 support, while XRP nears the upper boundary of the falling channel pattern.

Ethereum Price Forecast: ETH struggles below $1,700 amid subdued on-chain users and capital outflows

Ethereum rises, albeit gradually, toward $1,700. The smart contract token reflects a marginal increase in buyers seeking to re-engage at lower price levels, following the massive drawdown from mid-May, which was largely driven by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and macroeconomic uncertainty.

XRP clings to support as derivatives interest cools

Ripple hangs on to $1.14 support, extending its rebound from its early-week support at $1.10 and June’s low of $1.05. Maintaining this short-term support level is vital for the remittance token to preserve its bullish momentum, with a decisive breakout above $1.20 likely to signal further upside potential.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP recovery slows amid incessant capital outflows
The cryptocurrency remains in a broader corrective bias on Friday, despite majors such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Ripple (XRP) holding slightly higher than early-week support levels. Bitcoin hovers around $63,500 amid a capped upside. Ethereum eyes a breakout past $1,700, while XRP hovers above $1.40.
Experts agree: Bitcoin nears bottom, but weak demand raises doubts
Bitcoin (BTC) is trading above $63,000 at the time of writing on Friday after rebounding from the key 200-week Simple Moving Average (SMA) near $62,000, a level widely viewed as key long-term support. The recovery may suggest that Bitcoin has found a floor after a sharp correction that spanned more than a month, but some warning signs persist.
