Bitcoin fell to a one-week low on Apr. 19, as markets moved into consolidation following a recent bull run. Following today\u2019s red wave, prices neared a breakout below the $29,000 level earlier in the session. Ethereum also declined, falling below $2,000.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bitcoin<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>) moved lower on Wednesday, as markets began to consolidate following recent gains in price.<\/p>\n

Following a high of $30,470.30 on Tuesday, BTC<\/a>\/USD dropped to a bottom at the $29,102.17 mark earlier in the day.<\/p>\n

The low sent bitcoin to its lowest point since April 10, which is when price was last below $29,000.<\/p>\n

Overall, it appears that today\u2019s sell-off took place as the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) fell below a floor at 59.00.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, the index is tracking at 54.97, with the next visible point of support at the 55.00 mark.<\/p>\n

Should this level be hit, there is a good chance that BTC<\/a> will be trading around a floor at $28,600.<\/p>\n

Ethereum<\/h2>\n

In addition to BTC<\/a>, Wednesday\u2019s red wave also pushed ethereum (ETH<\/a>) lower, with the price dropping below $2,000.<\/p>\n

ETH<\/a>\/USD hit a low of $1,967.17 earlier today, which comes less than 24 hours after it traded at a peak of $2,121.53.<\/p>\n

The move came as ethereum fell below its recent price floor at the $2,030 level, with some eyeing a lower floor at $1,830.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, ETH<\/a> was relatively overbought in recent days, with the RSI hitting a reading above 75.00 to start the week.<\/p>\n

This led to bears reentering the market, which have now pushed price strength to a current reading at 55.00<\/p>\n

A floor at 51.00 could be the target for sellers, which would almost certainly see ETH<\/a> trading under $1,900.<\/p>\n
