Bitcoin Price
After a close below the USD 18,000 level, Bitcoin price accelerated its decline. BTC traded below the USD 17,500 and USD 17,000 support levels. Finally, it found supports near USD 16,500 and USD 16,350. The price is recovering and trading above USD 17,000. On the upside, the first major resistance is at USD 17,650, above which the price could test USD 18,000.

An initial support on the downside is near the USD 17,000 level. A close below the USD 17,000 level could potentially push the price back towards the USD 16,500 level.

Ethereum Price
Ethereum price declined more than USD 100 and it broke the USD 500 support level. ETH found support near the USD 485 zone and rebounded above USD 500. However, the price is struggling to recover above the USD 525 and USD 530 levels.

If it continues to struggle near USD 530, there could be another bearish reaction. An initial support is near the USD 500 level, below which the price could revisit the USD 485 support level.

Bitcoin cash, Litecoin, and XRP price
Bitcoin cash price is down 18% and it is now trading below the USD 300 and USD 288 levels. BCH could continue to decline towards the USD 270 support level. Even more losses below USD 270 could trigger a sharp decline towards the USD 250 support zone.

Litecoin (LTC) declined sharply below the USD 82.00 and USD 80.00 support levels. LTC traded close to $ 70.00 before correcting higher. The price is testing the USD 75.00 level and it could recover further towards the USD 76.50 and USD 78.00 levels. The main resistance is now forming near the USD 80.00 level.

XRP price dipped below the USD 0.600 support level. The bears strengthened and the price even spiked below the USD 0.520 support. The price tested the USD 0.475 support and rebounded above USD 0.520. On the upside, the bulls could face a strong challenge near the USD 0.555 and USD 0.565 levels.

In short, Bitcoin price corrected sharply below USD 18,000 and USD 17,500. BTC still has some medium-term uptrend supports on USD 16,500 and USD 15,000. On the upside, the bulls may struggle to surpass USD 17,800 and USD 18,000.
