Bitcoin (19k), Ethereum (1.6k), and Shiba Inu Analysis

Bitcoin Analysis 

With Bitcoin’s fourth halving an estimated 558 days or 86,931 blocks away yet, what can we expect over the last 113 days of 2022 and moving forward to 2023? Nobody can know for certain but by focusing on Bitcoin’s charts, different timescales, and the technicals, we can attempt to predict what’s forthcoming for BTC’s price and ergo market participants across the cryptocurrency sector.

BTC’s price finished up greater than 2% for Wednesday’s daily session following Tuesday’s daily candle where BTC’s price sold-off by more than $1,000. Bitcoin’s price finished-up Wednesday’s daily candle +$499.1. 

The first chart we’re looking at for this Thursday is the BTC/USD 4HR chart below on the left. The 4HR chart and the BTC/USD 1W chart are both from DannyC914. BTC’s price is trading between the 1.272 fibonacci level [$18,870.65] and 1 fib level [$19,513.74], at the time of writing.

Despite obvious bearish momentum again, BTC bulls are hoping to stop the bleeding before a new 12-month low is made below $17,611. The targets overhead for bullish BTC market participants are 1, 0.618 [$20,416.91], 0.382 [$20,974.88], and a full retracement to 0 [$21,878.05].

Conversely, bearish BTC traders are seeking to break the 1.272 fib level with a secondary target of 1.382 [$18,610.57]. The third target to the downside for bearish traders is 1.618 [$18,052.60] with a fourth target of 2 [$17,149.43].

Shiba Inu Analysis

Shiba Inu’s price also bounced back on Wednesday as Bitcoin’s bullish tide rose most ships across the cryptocurrency sector and when the day’s session wrapped-up, SHIB’s price was +$0.00000024.

The SHIB/USD 1D chart below from DarthTrador shows SHIBS’s price trying to break out of a Falling Wedge that looks to be part of a larger Cup with Handle Pattern. 

If bullish traders can break out at $0.00001278 then there’s a chance to see a short-term retracement to the upside on SHIB. 

However, if bearish traders defend the top of its current structure than new local lows on SHIB’s price may be forthcoming.
