Prices of BTC and ETH decrease amidst regulatory uncertainty in the US

By April 20, 20232 minute read

Bitcoin and Ethereum dropped prices by 5% and 7% respectively taking the bullish market sentiment down.

SEC’s approach towards Crypto, possible rate hikes on the horizon, have gotten investors worried about digital assets. The market also reflected a correlation between Crypto and S&P after initial indications that the two had slowly started moving independently.

However, the fact that the tokens are perhaps undergoing a price correction after a good run,  cannot be ruled out.

The Ichimoku Base Line, valued at 28788, continues to be neutral. The Hull Moving Average indicates “Sell” at 29129. The Volume Weighted Moving Average indicates “Sell” at 29291.
