Bitcoin (BTC) increased by 0.85% on Sunday. BTC gained 2.21% to reach $20,03 at the close of the week, reversing a Saturday decline of 0.68%. BTC rebounded from a low of $19,589 to a high of $20,039 in the last hour before easing down.
Ethereum (ETH), which had lost 1.14% on Saturday, gained 1.35% on Sunday to close the week up 10.73% at $1,579.
Following the general market, ETH dropped to a low of $1,541 before reaching a high of $1,584 in the last hour. Investor anticipation of the impending Merge offered assistance, while Fed apprehension maintained ETH below $1,600.
Despite the US markets being closed for Labor Day, investor caution dominated the cryptocurrency market going into the Monday session. Investors in cryptocurrencies are in the dark about the Fed's rate rise in September.
Although the US job market statistics from last week were worse than anticipated, inflation is still much higher than the Fed's target, which signals front-loading for the rest of the year. After Friday's statistics, former Fed Chair and US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen emphasized the Fed's obligations. The remarks made by Yellen are still relevant.
BTC was worth $19,746 at the time of writing, a decline of 1.28%. BTC saw a negative morning, dropping from a high of $20,060 to a low of $19,637.
At $19,715, BTC momentarily breached the First Major Support Level (R1).
In order to support a run at the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $20,165, BTC must cross the pivot point at $19,877. To break beyond the morning high of $20,060, BTC requires support from a larger portion of the market.
BTC would challenge the Second Major Resistance Level (R2) at $20,327 and resistance at $20,500 during a prolonged crypto rise. At $20,777, the Third Major Resistance Level (R3) is located.
If the pivot is not moved through, the First Major Support Level (S1) at $19,715 remains in play. In the absence of a prolonged sell-off, BTC should stay above $19,000. The decline should be constrained by the Second Major Support Level at $19,427.
