Bitcoin started the week consolidating above the $28,000 level, as markets prepare for a big week of U.S. economic data. The headline will be this Friday\u2019s nonfarm payrolls, which are expected to fall to 238,000 jobs. Ethereum remains above $1,800 as of writing. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Bitcoin<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>) started the week consolidating around the $28,000 level, as volatility in crypto markets remained high.<\/p>\n

Following a low of $27,607.67 earlier in today\u2019s session, BTC<\/a>\/USD rose to a peak at $28,475.62 as the day progressed.<\/p>\n

The move saw bitcoin move closer to a recent resistance level at $28,500, which was broken over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Recent price consolidation comes as the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) failed to move beyond a ceiling at 65.00.<\/p>\n

As of writing, the index is tracking at 62.00, which is also a key point of support for traders.<\/p>\n

Overall, the world\u2019s largest cryptocurrency is now trading 1.46% higher than at the same time last week.<\/p>\n

Ethereum<\/h2>\n

Ethereum (ETH<\/a>) continues to trade above the $1,800 level, with traders still targeting a breakout above a key resistance level.<\/p>\n

ETH<\/a>\/USD rose to a high of $1,819.29 earlier in today\u2019s session, which comes after an earlier bottom at $1,765.52.<\/p>\n

As a result of today\u2019s jump, ethereum bulls attempted to move towards a ceiling at $1,825, however momentum has since eased.<\/p>\n

This comes as earlier bulls seemingly abandoned their positions as the RSI ran into a wall at the 60.00 level.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, price strength is now at the 57.77 mark, with the next visible ceiling around the 62.00 region.<\/p>\n

In addition to this, the 10-day (red) moving average is now nearing a downward cross with its 25-day (blue) counterpart, which could signal upcoming price weakness.<\/p>\n
