Nearly six percent down! This is the result of Bitcoin’s fluctuations in the past 24 hours. Ethereum’s losses were even bigger as Buterin’s brainchild declined by nearly nine percent. What is going on with the crypto market and why both traders and investors are unable to change the situation currently?

We think that there are three main reasons for that. The first one is a generally negative mood as cryptocurrencies resemble a snowball now, rolling down a mountain. It becomes bigger and bigger and market players seem to be frustrated as they see no starting point to support coins.

The second reason is as easy as ABC. The South Korean government wants to “get its hands” on traders’ pockets as they want to receive information about those who conduct transactions. The fight between exchanges and the South Korean government is still on and nobody knows who is going to be a winner. Anyway, we don’t think that regulators will retreat. This fact provokes fears among market players and gives bears support.

Finally, the next thing we want your attention to be attracted to is the Consensus 2018 Conference, which results were disappointing. If we take a look at historical data, Consensus helped Bitcoin to add nearly 70 percent during the conference and additional 138 percent two months after the event last year. However, this year the situation was different as Bitcoin went down during the event and seemed to develop this negative tendency several days after the doors of Consensus 2018 were shut down.

ETH/USD Hourly Fibo


The currency pair started a correction on Wednesday and almost reached the closest resistance area at $615.51. However, buyers were unable to drive ETH/USD higher as bears regained control over the market. Sellers pushed Ethereum lower towards 2.618 retracement level and managed to jump over it as ETH/USD fluctuates below this line in the moment of writing.
The possible scenarios for ETH/USD are the following:
1. Bearish scenario. ETH price seems to end testing 2.618 retracement level from below and is able to resume its downside tendency in the nearest future. Targets are below the long spike that we had several hours ago.
2. Bullish scenario seems to be unreal at the moment as the market is still under pressure. However, we could give around 10 to 20 percent that ETH/USD would be able to start growing from the current levels.
