Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Follow Stocks, Rebound After Monday Bloodbath: Analyst Hints At King Crypto's Rebound to $67K If This Level Holds

Author: Aniket Verma | August 05, 2024 10:41pm

Leading cryptocurrencies bounced back Monday after experiencing their worst crash since the Covid era.

CryptocurrencyGains +/-Price (Recorded 9:15 p.m. EDT)
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC)+3.64%$55,987.91
Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH)
               
+8.45%$2,536.80
Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE)          +7.41%$0.09892

What Happened: Bitcoin clawed back to the $55,000 region during early trading and made further advances during overnight hours. This comes a day after the world's largest cryptocurrency's gravity-defying trajectory caused it to dip briefly below $50,000. BTC was still down 15% over the week as of this writing.

Ethereum made a more spirited comeback, reclaiming $2,500 after hitting an intraday low of $2,162.

Total cryptocurrency liquidations to $678 million in the last 24 hours owing to the recovery. More than $412 million in bullish bets was wiped out of the market.

Bitcoin's Open Interest dropped 2.45% in the last 24 hours. A drop in OI, coming alongside a rise in price, indicated that short sellers were covering their positions.

The Cryptocurrency Fear & Greed Index flashed "Extreme Fear" as of this writing, implying a potential market bottom was around the corner.

The global cryptocurrency market stood at $1.98 trillion, declining 1.48% in the last 24 hours.

Stocks plummeted Monday, with blue-chip indices posting their worst performances in nearly two years. The Dow Jones Industrial Average crashed 1,033.99 points, or 2.60%%, to close at 38,703.27. The S&P 500 tumbled 3% to end at 5,186.33. The tech-focused Nasdaq Composite sank 3.43% to finish at 16,200.08.

That said, stock futures bounced during overnight trading. Futures linked to the S&P 500 rose 1.27%, while the Nasdaq 100 Futures gained 1.65% as of 9:30 p.m.

Japan's stock market also rebounded after recording its worst trading day since the “Black Monday” crash of 1987. The blue-chip Nikkei 225 surged more than 8%.

Fears of recession and escalating tensions in the Middle East continued to keep investors on tenterhooks.

Analyst Notes: Widely-followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez noted the significance of $54,000 as a key support level for Bitcoin. 

"If the $54,000 support holds, the key resistance on the upside for BTC is $67,000," the on-chain sleuth remarked

Another noted cryptocurrency researcher, Michaël van de Poppe, stated that today's correction could result in a bear trap for short position traders.

For the curious, a bear trap is a reversal from a down-trending market that may force traders to abandon their short positions in the face of rising losses.
