BTC challenges $60,000

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC/USD almost hitting $60,000 before consolidating in a new higher range after sudden gains Saturday evening.

The pair had hit lows of $55,650 during the week, these marking its lowest point in over a month, but further retests failed to materialize as sentiment improved.

Adopting a calmer perspective into the weekly close, analysts thus looked to the long term to understand the overall health of the market.

“Since breaking its black 200-day EMA, BTC rallied to new All Time Highs. Still over +50% above the 200 EMA, despite the recent retrace from ATHs,” Rekt Capital summarized on the day.

On-chain metrics supported the reasoned view, with the Crypto Fear & Greed Index in neutral territory at just below $60,000.

Network fundamentals were similarly unfazed by the week’s events with the hash rate staying near all-time highs and difficulty still on track to rise modestly at the next readjustment due Nov. 27.

Fellow trader Pentoshi meanwhile identified the area between $59,000 and $61,000 as the point at which it would be prudent to reenter with spot longs should that area be successfully reclaimed.

Gave local top and bottom on $ETH

How I plan to trade it. Looking for LH from here to 4570. *IF* 4570 is flipped then happy to buy back higher

Playing for LH and a 2nd leg down to 36xx

Same with $BTC looking for 59-61. If reclaim = buy back otherwise looking for LH

If = then https://t.co/judmSGFoIu pic.twitter.com/OhyBcpH7uN

“Overall, super cycle and lengthening cycle for Bitcoin is still the case,” Cointelegraph contributor Michaël van de Poppe added.

Ethereum, Avalanche lead a slow altcoin market

On the topic of altcoins, Ether (ETH) constituted one of the most solid performers out of the top-10 cryptocurrencies by market cap Sunday, amid broadly flat action.

ETH/USD traded up 2.3% at the time of writing, while outlier Avalance (AVAX) delivered 12% returns over 24 hours and entering the top-10 for the first time to push out Dogecoin (DOGE).

Despite Saturday’s abrupt upturn, BTC/USD was still around 1.8% higher.
