On Sunday, the bulls tried to leave the sideways range and were able to pierce its upper border several times; however, sellers kept the BTC price below the two-hour EMA55.
If the level of average prices continues to keep the pair in a local downtrend, then this week the bears can roll back the Bitcoin price to the $42,447 support level.
Bitcoin is trading at $45,672 at press time.
XRP/USD
On Saturday, XRP broke above the two-hour EMA55 and stayed above this moving average in a tight consolidation all weekend.
XRP/USD chart by TradingView
Buyers formed a rather strong bullish momentum tonight, which allowed the pair to test the level of $0.90. On the daily time frame, the Stoch RSI indicator lines entered the overbought zone. But if the bulls manage to continue to rise, the pair might test the resistance of $0.96.
On the other hand, in the near future, the indicator lines should leave the overbought zone. Therefore, one can expect a return below the support of $0.80.
XRP is trading at $0.8231 at press time.
ADA/USD
Cardano (ADA) is the biggest loser from the list, falling by 6.33%.
ADA/USD chart by TradingView
Cardano (ADA) has approached the vital support level at $1.188. One needs to pay close attention to the way the price is entering this zone. If the daily candle fixes below it, that may be a reason for a mid-term bearish trend until the end of the month.
ADA is trading at $1.221 at press time.
BNB/USD
Binance Coin (BNB) is also following the decline of Cardano (ADA), going down by 5% since yesterday.
BNB/USD chart by TradingView

BNB is trading at $513.80 at press time.
