FxWirePro: ETH/EUR sinks to new 2018 low, total cryptocurrency market cap falls below $200 billion

  • Successive days of market declines have sent the total cryptocurrency market capitalization back below $200 billion, data from CoinMarketCap showed on Tuesday.
     
  • ETH/EUR sinks to 11-month lows at 220 mark, makes a new 2018 low.
     
  • The pair has broken strong trendline support at 255  and has hit lows of 220.02 before paring some losses to currently trade at 233 levels.
     
  • Technical indicators heavily bearish, we see no respite from bears. 
     
  • However, momentum indicators are at oversold levels and minor pullbacks cannot be ruled out.
     
  • 5-DMA is immediate resistance at 266 levels. Break above could see test of 21-EMA at 324 levels.
     
  • On the downside price action has broken below 113% Fib at 229 and next major support lies at 170 (127.2% Fib extension).
     
  • Decisive break above 55-EMA could see signs of reversal.

Support levels - 230 (113% Fib extension), 220 (session low), 170 (127.2% Fib), 168 (Sept 2016 low)

Resistance levels - 255 (trendline), 266 (5-DMA), 324 (21-EMA), 374 (55-EMA)

Recommendation: Good to go short on upticks around 235/240, SL: 270, TP: 220/ 200/ 170.
