Bitcoin price continues declining on Friday after falling more than 15% this week.


Ethereum price closed below its daily support level of $2,359, continuing its downward trend. 


XRP is approaching its daily support at $1.96; a firm close below would continue its downward momentum.


Bitcoin (BTC) price continues declining on Friday after falling more than 15% this week. Ethereum (ETH) and Ripple (XRP) followed BTC’s footsteps and declined by nearly 24% and 21%, respectively.


Bitcoin bears aiming for the $73,000 mark


Bitcoin price broke out of its prolonged consolidation phase, slipping below the $94,000 support level and closing at $91,552 after a 4.89% decline on Monday. BTC continued its correction by 8.2% in the next three days and closed below its $85,000 support level on Wednesday. At the time of writing on Friday, it continues its sell-off, trading at around $81,000.


If BTC continues its correction, it could extend the decline to test its next support level at $73,000.


The daily chart’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator reads 21, below its oversold conditions and points downwards, indicating significant selling pressure but technically may be due for a potential reversal or bounce. However, traders should be cautious as the RSI may remain below oversold levels and continue correcting.

However, if BTC recovers, it could extend the recovery to retest the $85,000 resistance level.


Ethereum is poised for further downside if it closes below $2,125


Ethereum price declined almost 11% on Monday. It continued its downtrend for the next three days, declined 8.4% and closed below its daily support level at $2,359. At the time of writing on Friday, it continues its downleg, retesting its February 3 low of $2,125.


If ETH continues its downtrend and closes below $2,125, it could extend the decline to retest its weekly support level of $1,905.


Like Bitcoin, Ethereum’s RSI on the daily chart reads 27, below its oversold conditions and points downwards, indicating significant selling pressure but technically may be due for a potential reversal or bounce. However, traders should be cautious as the RSI may remain below oversold levels and continue correcting.

If XRP closes below the $1.96 daily support level, it will extend the decline to test its February 3 low of $1.77.


The RSI on the daily chart reads 29, below its oversold conditions and points downwards, indicating significant selling pressure but technically may be due for a potential reversal or bounce. However, traders should be cautious as the RSI may remain below oversold levels and continue to correct.
