Bitcoin (BTC) Price Bounce Quickly Fades; Ethereum’s ETH, Solana’s SOL, Ripple’s XRP, Cardano’s ADA Lose as Torrid October Continues

Whether prices rebound or tumble lower may depend on bitcoin’s ongoing retest of its “Bull Market Support Band,” a key trend indicator defined by the asset’s 20-week simple moving average (SMA) and a 21-week exponential moving average (EMA). The band often served as support for prices during previous uptrends, and currently ranges between $61,100 and $62,900. A bounce from the band would reinvigorate the uptrend from the September lows to target, but a decisive break below could undo all the recovery, with many more weeks chopping below $60,000.
