Technical Market Outlook:
The ETH/USD pair keeps trading inside of the ascending channel and it was recently capped around the level of $388 due to the upper channel line resistance level. The market had made a Bearish Engulfing candlestick pattern at this level and reversed towards the lower channel line. Currently, the market is consolidating in a narrow zone between the levels of $355.24 - $369.37 and due to the fact, that the last move inside the channel is corrective in nature, more weakness is expected in ETH/USD pair. The next technical support is seen at the level of $332.28 (outside of the channel). The key demand zone is seen between the levels of $305.20 - $321.95 and if violated, then the next key long term support is seen at the level of $288.

WS2 - $291.16
WS3 - $261.17
Trading Recommendations:
The weekly and monthly time frame trend on the ETH/USD pair remains up and there are no signs of trend reversal, so buy orders are preferred in the mid-term. The key mid-term technical support, seen at the level of $364.95 had been violated, but all the dynamic corrections are still being used to buy the dips. The next mid-term target for bulls is seen at the level of $500.

Technical Analysis of BTC/USD for 15 September 2020
Crypto Industry News:
Bitcoin enthusiasts in Hong Kong have come up with a new way to raise public awareness of Bitcoin on a large scale.
Starting from September 11, three double-decker trams decorated with the BTC logo began to run on the streets of Hong Kong. Each of them, apart from the Bitcoin logo, contains a certain message whose task is to educate the public.
Earlier in August, the well-known hedge fund Grayscale also launched a massive educational campaign on Bitcoin in the US.
As part of an educational campaign launched by the Bitcoin Association of Hong Kong, 20 giant billboards will also be created in various public places. The trams themselves will be entirely decorated with the BTC logo and will run on different routes for the next four weeks.
The campaign focuses in part on communicating the importance of the deficit phenomenon and how it relates to healthy monetary policy. One of the billboards refers to the American money printing in 2020. We can read on it:
"More U.S. dollars have been printed in 2020 than were in existence in 2009. There will only ever be 21 million Bitcoins. "
A publication that foreshadowed the event in a well-known local newspaper said the cryptocurrency community hoped to initiate a conversation about what role cryptocurrency could play in providing economic infrastructure for a new, rapidly digitizing global market.
Technical Market Outlook:
The BTC/USD pair has broken out from the narrow range located between the levels of $9,825 - $10,586 and made a new local high at the level of $10,779. The nearest technical resistance is seen at the level of $10,890 and $10,940 and the key short-term technical support is seen at the level of $9,922. The market conditions are oversold and the momentum remains neutral on H4 time frame chart. The weekly time frame trend remains up.
Weekly Pivot Points:
WR3 - $11,302
WR2 - $10,908
WR1 - $10,609
Weekly Pivot - $10,206
WS1 - $9,887
WS2 - $9,466
WS3 - $9,157
Trading Recommendations:
The weekly trend on the BTC/USD pair remains up and there are no signs of trend reversal, so buy orders are preferred in the mid-term. All the dynamic corrections are still being used to buy the dips. The next mid-term target for bulls is seen at the level of $13,712. The key mid-term technical support is seen at the level of $10,000.

Further Development
Analyzing the current trading chart of BTC, I found that there is no change since my last analysis and I still expect another downside movement towards the $9,135 and $8,400.

Watch for selling opportunities on the rallies...

Technical Analysis of ETH/USD for 14 September 2020
Crypto Industry News:
Yearn Finance launched yETH vault earlier this week. The protocol attracted over 137,000 ETH on the very first day of its launch. YETH vault pays profits to those who have blocked their resources on the platform. They come from the profits generated by the bonus obtained from ETH blocked on various platforms.
The ETH community has expressed concerns about the unusually large number of blocked ETH resources as the yETH protocol could theoretically control and lead to an unprecedented 51% attack on the Ethereum network.
Vitalik Buterin commented on the whole situation, who replied that the risk associated with a 51% attack against the upcoming update is unjustified. In a tweet, he stated that someone could indeed attempt an attack, but would quickly lose control of the network as a result of the actions of other participants:
"We need to get past the myth that it's * fatal * if one entity gets enough to 51% attack PoS. The reality is they could attack * once *, and then they either get slashed or (if censorship attack) soft-forked away and inactivity-leaked, and they lose their coins so can't attack again ".
Concerns came days after Ethereum Classic experienced its third 51% attack in just one month. The security of this network has been heavily criticized and questioned since then.
Technical Market Outlook:
The ETH/USD pair has been moving up in an ascending channel towards the level of $388 where it was capped due to the upper channel line resistance level. The market had made a Bearish Engulfing candlestick pattern at this level and reversed towards the lower channel line. Currently, the market is consolidating in a narrow zone between the levels of $355.24 - $369.37 and due to the fact, that the last move inside the channel is corrective in nature, more weakness is expected in ETH/USD pair.

Technical Analysis of BTC/USD for 14 September 2020
Crypto Industry News:
At a virtual conference hosted by the Brookings Institute, Andrew Bailey, Governor of the Bank of England (BoE), stressed that crypto assets are simply "inappropriate for the payment world."
In his prepared comments on the future of cryptocurrencies and stablecoins, Bailey categorized Bitcoin as an asset that "has nothing to do with money." He has also shown hesitant to believe that crypto assets are a suitable investment opportunity as "their value can fluctuate quite, widely and unexpectedly."
This is what Bailey made when he spoke of accelerating the pace of innovation in payments. However, in the case of stablecoins, the governor said it could offer some "useful benefits", such as reducing friction in payments, while warning:
"If stablecoins are to be widely used as a means of payment, they must have standards equivalent to those currently in force for other forms of payment and money transfer through them."
In June, UK-based L3COS submitted a proposal to the Bank of England (BoE) for a blockchain-based operating system that would power the digital currency issued by the central bank. In addition, in March, the BoE published an in-depth discussion on CBDC which analyzed the rapidly changing payment landscape and the potential role that CBDCs could play in supporting a bank's mandate to manage monetary and financial stability.
Technical Market Outlook:
The BTC/USD pair keeps hovering around the level of $10,000 again as this is very important psychological level for market participants. The market has been consolidating in a narrow range located between the levels of $9,825 - $10,586. The nearest technical resistance is seen at the level of $10,890 and $10,940 and the key short-term technical support is seen at the level of $9,922. The market conditions are oversold and the momentum remains neutral on H4 time frame chart. The weekly time frame trend remains up.

WR2 - $10,908
WR1 - $10,609

WS1 - $9,887

Trading Recommendations:
The weekly trend on the BTC/USD pair remains up and there are no signs of trend reversal, so buy orders are preferred in the mid-term. All the dynamic corrections are still being used to buy the dips. The next mid-term target for bulls is seen at the level of $13,712.

Bitcoin and Altcoin prices start downside correction
It is scary to imagine, and even more scary to see a correction of 30, 40 and even 70% from the peak level, but this happens when you trade Altcoins via hype. And this moment came, the cryptocurrencies entered the red zone
With the onset of autumn, the market has dramatically changed, the hype of decentralized financial applications [DeFi-Decentralized Finance] like a vacuum cleaner dragged an enormous amount of money into the market, which led to large profits from cryptocurrencies. Income from 500% to 1,000% was something normal for DeFi as assets were growing and millions of new participants were entering the marker. Each of the new market participants wanted to get what mass media was writing about. It was an enormous profit from cryptocurrencies. Every day, the market was becoming more and more overheated. However, the DeFi bubble was also rising and finally reached $9.51 billion on September 2.
The day of judgment came, Altcoins dropped losing half of their value. Hamsters are in a panic, and only Bitcoin owners are not really scared. The first cryptocurrency went into correction, losing 15-20% of the peak level, which is still within the acceptable range.
Example
From September 2, Bitcoin has lost about 18% ($12,000 ---> $9,800), while Altcoin YFI for the same period of time, slumped by 45% ($32,500 ---> $18,000).
In order to recover to the levels logged on September 2, Bitcoin needs to advance by 22%, and Altcoin needs a rise of 80%.
The first cryptocurrency confirmed its title of a conservative crypto asset that can be invested in with less risk of drawdown.
The recovery process is expected to be difficult, the crypto market has an impressive correction, and it will take several weeks or even months to recover. Do not be discouraged, there are plenty of drivers for growth. For example, the upcoming IPO of Coinbase, which may encourage investors to take action. At the same time, we expect the early launch of large-scale crypto project DFINITY, which will push the community to a new level in digital development thus attracting new investors and boosting the crypto market.
Correction is not just stress, it is an opportunity to buy an asset at a discount.
You can set filtering of market leaders on coinmarketcap: TOP 10/15/25.
Current development of Bitcoin and its prospects
The quote is at the correction stage, where the psychological level of $10,000 is trying to keep market participants from further decline. Now, everything depends on the depth of fear and the spillage of the entire market, since the maximum correction for Bitcoin is $8,500, but this will be discussed if the price is fixed lower than $9,500.
Life hack
If Bitcoin declines to the level of $8,500, Altcoins will lose another 30-60% of the current value without any brakes.
A positive scenario considers the appearance of a flat formation on the market in the range of $9,800/$11,500, which will provide an opportunity to recover all crypto assets. The sideways movement will be the best scenario, which in the future may boost Bitcoin as well as the entire crypto market.
General background of the crypto market
Analyzing the total market capitalization of the crypto industry, you can see that Total market lost $70 billion just in a few days and currently stands at $323 billion.
The correction is everywhere, if we look at the volume chart in general terms, then first we need to return to the highest level of $385 billion logged in 2019 , which will reflect the recovery of the bullish trend. Then we will update the current maximum of $393 billion. After that, the price may return to the range of $245 billion / $285 billion.
Market Cap: $323,621,210,798
BTC Dominance: 57,4%
The index of emotions of the crypto market was stable above 80 points on September 2, but now it decreased by almost one half and it is at 41 points. The fear of a crash is not yet reflected in the index figures, but many traders/hamsters are in a panic, which has a detrimental effect on crypto assets.
Indicator analysis
Analyzing different sectors of timeframes (TF), it is clear that the indicators of technical instruments signal selling due to the correction stage. The weekly period holds the buy signal, reflecting the general trend of 2020.
