Movers & Losers

Levels We’re Watching
Bitcoin’s trading band was between $79,081 and $80,494 over the last day. A fall below $79,081 could hint at more bearish movement, while edging past $80,494 might suggest short-term bullishness that could lure buyers back into the fold. Similarly for Ethereum: trading has ranged from $2,473 to $2,532—slipping under could mean more selling force; breaking above might signal a recovery try.
