Analyst Notes: Popular cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez suggested Bitcoin breakout traders be mindful of the trendline at $68,000.
"Until this breaks, the BTC dip may keep dipping," the analyst emphasized.
"Markets love symmetry, and fakeouts to one side of a pattern usually trigger extended moves in the opposite direction," Bennett remarked.

Widely followed analyst Michaël van de Poppe noted that things weren't "too bad" for Ethereum.
"Reclaiming $2,400-$2,410 should signal positivity to $2,600-$2,700 and likely higher," he predicted.
Picturing everything for $ETH, it shows that liquidity has been taken on multiple levels. If the next level of support needs to be taken –> <$2,100 is next. Reclaiming $2,400-2,410 should signal positivity to $2,600-2,700 and likely higher. Things aren't too bad. pic.twitter.com/FdXptisA81
