WAVES price surged by up to 70% on March 29, reaching a new all-time high around $54. Traders betting against the rise of Waves — the native token of the WAVES blockchain network — suffered losses worth millions of dollars as the WAVES/USD pair extended its recovery to a record level in the past 24 hours.

Around $11 million of the total liquidated positions were short. …

Terra (LUNA) rose to its best level to date on March 29 as the Luna Foundation Guard's (LFG) plans to increase its Bitcoin (BTC) reserves eased anxiety about the impact of an increasingly hawkish Federal Reserve and the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war on crypto markets. LUNA price hits new record high above $106 LUNA's price breached above the previous record high of $106.29 by minuscule margins, reversing the losses incurred during the selloff between December 2021 and January 2022. The latest price rally pushed Terra token's net capitalization crossed $37.17 billion, now making up 1.76% of the entire crypto market, compared …

The Digital Asset Fund Flows Report revealed that investment products for digital assets saw total inflows of $193 million last week, a level not seen since early December 2021.

As Bitcoin (BTC) finally broke out of the $46,000 resistance on March 27, traders were quick to conclude that the bearish trend was gone for good. Even as the price hit its highest level in 84 days, derivatives metrics and Asia’s Tether premium still show a lack of bullish sentiment. While analysts will struggle to find a rationale for the modest 5.8% 24-hour gain that pushed Bitcoin above $48,500, we still have to account for the daily 3.8% average volatility. For instance, over the past 12 months, BTC presented a daily swing higher than 5.8% in 44 instances, ranging from …

A sharp reversal in the price of Bitcoin (BTC) out of an otherwise bearish technical setup has raised its chances of reaching $58,000 in Q2. Bitcoin price bottoming out? On the daily timeframe, Bitcoin broke out of its ascending triangle on March 27 to the upside, bringing the much-anticipated level of $50,000 within its range. Interestingly, ascending triangles are continuation patterns, meaning they typically resolve by sending the price in the direction of its previous trend once it breaks out of their tightening range. Bitcoin, which was trending downwards before forming an ascending triangle, avoided further downside. Instead, it managed …

It took Ethereum's native token Ether (ETH) only two months to recover from a brutal selloff at the beginning of 2022. ETH price breaks out but risks remain ETH price reached near $3,350 on March 28 after rallying by over 30% in just two weeks, and by more than 50% when measured from its year-to-date low of around $2,160, established Jan. 24. In doing so, the ETH/USD pair may have also "busted" what earlier appeared to be a bearish continuation setup, called the "symmetrical triangle." "Busted patterns (when the breakout is in one direction only to see price reverse and …

Whether you consider cryptocurrency trading as art, science or a game of skill, one thing is beyond dispute: Those who excel at it are not the traders who maintain the longest series of lucky one-offs but those who establish sustainable trading processes yielding consistent returns. Ask a sample of seasoned pros if they would prefer to catch one obscure token’s 300%-in-a-day brush with fame or learn a strategy that systematically generates a 3% return on investment. You will be surprised how many of them (likely close to 100% of the sample) prefer modest yet systematic profits. How does one make …

A brutal correction witnessed in the Dogecoin (DOGE) market between May 2021 and February 2022, which saw the price dropping by almost 85%, appears to have come to a halt this month. DOGE/USD rebounds 30% in two weeks DOGE experienced strong dip-buying when its price crashed to levels around $0.10 two weeks ago, resulting in a 30% rebound move to $0.14 as of March 27. Meanwhile, the coin's upside retracement originated at a support level that constitutes a "falling wedge" setup, signaling an extended bullish reversal in the weekly sessions ahead. In detail, a falling wedge pattern occurs when the …

Strong inflows into the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITO) in the past two weeks pushed its Bitcoin (BTC) exposure to a new record high. No Bitcoin outflows despite 'rollover' risks The fund, which uses futures contracts to gain exposure to Bitcoin's price movements, had a record 28,450 BTC under its management — worth about $1.27 billion at today's price — as of March 24, compared to nearly 26,000 BTC a month before, according to official data from ProShares. Interestingly, the inflows appeared in the days leading up to the "rollover" of BITO's 3,846 March future contracts in the week ending …

Cardano (ADA) inched higher on March 25, putting itself on course recoup a great portion of losses that it had incurred in the first two months of this year. Not so bullish yet ADA's price jumped by around 7.5% in trading Friday, reaching $1.19 over a month after bottoming out at around $0.75. The Cardano token's huge rebound move netted around 60% in gains. Nonetheless, it remained at the risk of losing its upside momentum in the coming weeks. At the core of this bearish analogy is a multi-month descending channel pattern, with a reliable track record of causing and …

Ether (ETH) bulls have a few good reasons to celebrate the 20% gain between March 14 and March 24. The price increase surprised many and led to the first daily close above $3,000 in 34 days. Even with this move, Friday's $2.4 billion Ether options expiry is somewhat uncertain because bears can easily profit by pushing the price below $3,000. In a letter to shareholders, Larry Fink, the CEO of BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, noted that the global socio-political crisis and growing inflation could make way for a global digital payment network. Moreover, cryptocurrency investors turned bullish after …

An overall recovery sentiment across the crypto market also assisted in pushing MINA's price higher, since altcoins typically move in tandem with Bitcoin (BTC). Additionally, Coinbase's announcement on March 23 …
