Bitcoin chart analysis
US regulators have approved for the first time the establishment of exchange-traded funds based on the digital currency bitcoin, whose market is currently estimated at around $1.7 trillion. This caused increased volatility in the price of Bitcoin yesterday, so we first saw a drop to $44400 and then a bullish consolidation to the $47770 level. After that, the price makes a new pullback, but now up to the $45600 level, where we get new support and form a higher low.
Since then, we are back in a bullish consolidation and expect to see a continuation above the $46400 level. Potential higher targets are $46800 and $47200 levels. We need a negative consolidation and a drop back to $45600 for a bearish option. Sliding below leads to forming a new low and thus confirms the bearish momentum. Potential lower targets are $45200 and $44800 levels. EMA50 moving average is in the zone around $45200 levels.

Today, we are looking at consolidation taking place in the $2560-$2620 range. The price of Ethereum remains high, which could influence us to see a break above and the formation of a new high. Potential higher targets are $2680 and $2700 levels.
We need a pullback to the $2560 level for a bearish option. Then, a break below is needed to confirm the bearish presence. After that, we expect to see a further pullback and the formation of a new low. Potential lower targets are $2520 and $2480 levels. The EMA50 moving average remains low at the $2360 level.
