During the weekend, the rates of the most popular cryptocurrencies were at the top. However, the situation is being changed now. The prices of almost all digital assets out of the top 10 are decreasing, while the biggest loser is Litecoin, whose rate has dropped by more than 5% over the last 24 hours.

Against the background of the rollback, the BTC’s domination rate has increased up to 52.7%, while the total market capitalization makes up $177 billion.

BTC/USD

The past week passed quietly for Bitcoin. The bears managed to push test the lower border of the green corridor, and throughout the days the pair tried to recover to the upper border of the ascending zone.

On the 1-hour chart, the average price level keeps the pair from retesting the lower limit. However, in the area of ​​$5,400, a strong resistance exists, which does not allow the price to break through to the psychological level at $5,500. During the last week, buyers managed to form only one impulse to restore above the moving average EMA55. As long as the bulls failed to form a powerful bullish run, the BTC’s price will remain hanging at the level of the moving average.
