Analysts say that Bitcoin managing to hold the $11,500 level would bolster the medium-term bull case dramatically. One trader went as far as to say that the cryptocurrency closing the weekly candle at $11,500 could leave bears without much hope. He isn’t the first commentator

Bitcoin has finally started to show weakness after recovering from last weekend’s flash crash. After falling as low as $10,500 last weekend, the leading cryptocurrency surged as high as $11,950 before retracing.

This purportedly lines up with important technical levels on Ethereum’s medium-term chart. Investors in ETH should watch Bitcoin and other markets for some

Altcoins could see further losses against Bitcoin and the dollar if the market leaders continue to undergo bouts of volatility.
