Carlos Fernandes Despite a temporary drop below $30,000, Bitcoin maintained its position around that level on Friday, as traders aimed to sustain a bullish outlook following recent gains. The cryptocurrency quickly rebounded from the dip, thanks to bullish activity. Conversely, Ethereum experienced a decline from its recent high above $1,900.
Bitcoin
Bitcoin remained above $30,000, with traders striving to preserve the positive sentiment heading into the weekend.
After reaching a low of $29,679.16 earlier in the day, BTC/USD climbed to a peak of $30,334.40 as the day progressed.
However, the price has retreated from the previous high due to resistance encountered by the 14-day relative strength index (RSI).

At the time of writing, the RSI stood at 70.43, slightly below the aforementioned resistance level of 71.00.
Overall, momentum remains bullish, as the 10-day (red) moving average continues to surpass its 25-day (blue) counterpart.
If the RSI manages to surpass the 71.00 level in the upcoming days, there is a strong possibility that BTC will rise above $32,000.
Ethereum
In contrast, Ethereum (ETH) experienced a slight decline in today’s session, retracing from its recent multi-month high.
ETH/USD dropped to an intraday low of $1,866.26, following its peak at $1,908.13 the previous day.
This decline appears to be a result of profit-taking, as bullish traders aimed to secure their gains after a recent upward trend.
