Top 3 Coins To Watch Today: ADA, ETC, TEL – July 19 Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.

1. Cardano (ADA)

Cardano ADA is a proof-of-stake blockchain platform that says its goal is to allow “changemakers, innovators, and visionaries” to bring about positive global change. The ADA token is designed to ensure that owners can participate in the operation of the network. Because of this, those who hold the cryptocurrency have the right to vote on any proposed changes to the software.

ADA Price Analysis

At the time of writing, ADA is ranked the 5th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$1.60. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

ADA’s 40% July rally could be setting up a more significant bullish move for the rest of the quarter.

Last week, the support beginning near A$1.55 launched a move to the resistance starting near A$1.75. This move failed to close below the previous swing high. However, it did create probable support underneath the high near a monthly level around A$1.90.

Aggressive bulls could enter near this recently formed support. The last swing high at A$1.97 gives a first reasonable target. Bulls could hold for the second target at the set of relatively equal daily highs near A$2.17.

A daily close above the resistance from A$1.98 to A$2.10 could signal an extended move. Resistance at the EQ near A$2.25, a small price range near A$2.30, and probable resistance beginning at A$2.48 give potential take profit or turning points before the equal highs forming the primary objective at A$2.55.

2. Ethereum Classic (ETC)

Ethereum Classic ETC is a hard fork of Ethereum that launched in July 2016. Its main function is as a smart contract network, with the ability to host and support decentralized applications (DApps). Its native token is ETC. Since its launch, Ethereum Classic has sought to differentiate itself from Ethereum, with the two networks’ technical roadmap diverging further and further from each other with time.

ETC Price Analysis

At the time of writing, ETC  is ranked the 19th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$55.90. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

ETC tore upward into price discovery last month before pausing at resistance near the main move’s 0.68 extension.

The price range beginning at A$40.27 provides the first potential support for an early-week dip. Just below this range, the previous swing high and accumulation near A$36.25 could provide more substantial support. 

A significant market drop could reach as low as the consolidation range beginning at A$30.68, supported by the January monthly open.

It’s impossible to predict where the price in discovery will go, but the last high at A$69.37 provides the first probable target. Extensions from the primary move hint at A$75.38, A$82.41, and A$86.28 as probable take-profit zones.

3. Telcoin (TEL)

Telcoin TEL is the native medium of exchange, reserve asset, and protocol token of the Telcoin user-owned, decentralized financial platform. TEL enables end-users to seamlessly access and power a global suite of user-owned, decentralized financial products. TEL incentives coordinate market participants, such as telecoms and active users, to provide specific value-added services to end-users of the platform.

TEL Price Analysis

At the time of writing, TEL is ranked the 84th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$0.01741. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

June saw a 35% spike in TEL price into the resistance beginning near A$0.04329. This move swept July’s swing high, which might set the stage for retracement and reaccumulation.

The previous high and brief reaccumulation near A$0.02377 has so far provided support, making it a reasonable place for bulls to begin building positions. 

A deeper drop to run stops and test the daily gap beginning at A$0.01524 is likely to meet support. This area has a confluence with a monthly level and a consolidation zone.

Bulls could target the most recent swing high near A$0.02788. A break of this resistance zone is likely to reach near the old monthly high at A$0.03744. 

Resistance near $0.03575 could cause the price to pause. However, a break of this level is likely to proceed to resistance under the next monthly high, near A$0.04137.

Where to Buy or Trade Altcoins?

These three coins have the high liquidity on Binance Exchange, so that could help with trading on AUD/USDT/BTC pairs. And if you’re looking at buying and HODLing cryptos, then Swyftx Exchange is an easy-to-use popular choice in Australia.

Top 3 Coins To Watch Today: VET, ALICE, SHIB – July 16 Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.

1. VeChain (VET)

VeChain VET is a blockchain-powered supply chain platform. VeChain aims to use distributed governance and Internet of Things (IoT) technology to create an ecosystem that solves some of the major problems with supply chain management.

VET Price Analysis

At the time of writing, VET is ranked the 23rd cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$0.09351. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

During July, VET has consolidated under the July monthly open inside an approximately 25% range. This consolidation could point to accumulation. 

Bulls immediately bought up dips to support at a weekly level near A$0.08749 and a monthly level near A$0.1057, showing substantial buyer interest.

A cluster of relatively equal daily lows around A$0.08544 provides an attractive target for a stop run, creating a potentially excellent entry for bulls. More aggressive bulls could enter on dips to the closer support beginning at A$0.07951

If Bitcoin tumbles, a more pronounced dip could reach as low as the equal lows near A$0.07352, running stops into support beginning at A$0.07015. This move would give a good risk/reward entry for bulls targeting the high below resistance starting at A$0.1162, the relatively equal highs near A$0.1492, and the June high near A$0.1917.

2. MyNeighborAlice (ALICE)

ALICE is a multiplayer builder game, where anyone can buy and own virtual islands, collect and build exciting items and meet new friends. Inspired by successful games such as Animal Crossing, the game combines the best of the two worlds – a fun narrative for regular players who want to enjoy the gameplay experience as well as an ecosystem for players who want to collect and trade Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).

ALICE Price Analysis

At the time of writing, ALICE  is ranked the 187th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$10.61. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

After accumulating under the July monthly open, ALICE rallied 129% in a week before retracing to support near A$9.55.

Buyers continue to snatch up dips under the weekly open, suggesting that accumulation is still taking place. 

Bulls could look for entries in this region while being conscious of a potential stop run below the cluster of lows at A$8.82. Two areas of support, beginning near A$8.57 and A$8.29, provide probable buys if the price dips this low.

The equal highs near A$12.63 provide a first reasonable bullish target. If the price takes this target and penetrates the surrounding resistance, the next probable resistance begins near A$14.66. Possible targets include the old highs just above this resistance near A$19.83, A$21.46, and A$24.39.

3. Shiba Inu (SHIB)

Shiba Inu SHIB coin was created anonymously in August 2020 under the pseudonym “Ryoshi.” The meme coin quickly gained speed and value as a community of investors was drawn in by the cute charm of the coin paired with headlines and Tweets from personalities like Elon Musk and Vitalik Buterin.

SHIB Price Analysis

At the time of writing, SHIB is ranked the 34th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$0.000009329. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

SHIB wasted no time during June, rocketing upward over 85% from the last week of the month into the resistance near A$0.000015829.

For the last several days, the price has consolidated sideways and appears to be flipping old resistance near A$0.000011829 to support. If this level breaks – perhaps due to the tempting daily equal lows below – the next support begins near A$0.000008529.

Bulls entering at these levels could set their first target near the previous resistance near A$0.000012159. Beyond this level, probable targets include the old highs near A$0.000013529 and the resistance above near A$0.000013929.

A break of this resistance later this month could continue to the highs near A$0.000015229 and A$0.000015829.

Top 3 Coins To Watch Today: AXS, SAND, OGN – July 15 Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.

1. Axie Infinity (AXS)

Axie Infinity AXS is a blockchain-based trading and battling game that is partially owned and operated by its players. Each Axie is a non-fungible token (NFT) with different attributes and strengths and can be entered into 3v3 battles, with the winning team earning more experience (exp) points that are used to level up an Axie’s stats or evolve its body parts.

AXS Price Analysis

At the time of writing, AXS is ranked the 60th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$30.85. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

AXS exploded over 390% from the monthly open to tag the 400% extension near A$30.54. This level could continue to provide resistance, although early morning trading suggests that the 68% extension near A$32.25 could be turning from resistance to support.

A drop to the daily gap beginning at A$25.45 could provide an excellent entry for traders who can’t watch intraday price action. If this gap fills, the zone between A$22.00 and A$20.65 provides the next logical support. 

Technical analysis can’t predict a final target, but the 450% and 500% extensions near A$34.87 and A$39.55 are likely to provide significant resistance. Traders planning to take profits along the way can also watch the 435% extension near A$32.17.

2. The Sandbox (SAND)

The Sandbox SAND is a blockchain-based virtual world allowing users to create, build, buy and sell digital assets in the form of a game. By combining the powers of decentralised autonomous organisations (DAO) and non-fungible tokens (NFTs), the Sandbox creates a decentralised platform for a thriving gaming community.

SAND Price Analysis

At the time of writing, SAND is ranked the 112th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$0.6759. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

SAND’s stunning rally from June 25 transitioned to a slower continuation during July. However, the 127% extension near A$0.6945 has provided stiff resistance and pinned down the daily closes for the latter part of last week.

Traders could begin looking for entries in support created by the gap from A$0.5844 to A$0.5587. A higher risk-to-reward opportunity could present itself at probable support between A$0.6012 and A$0.5247, just above the weekly open. 

A deeper market retracement could drop below the relatively equal lows near A$0.4829, giving a higher probability entry in the support from A$0.4588 to A$0.4259.

As price explores thin air, there’s no way to predict the final target. However, the 100% and 168% extensions near A$0.8955 and A$0.9657 are likely to provide more significant resistance. The 68% and 127% extensions near A$0.8514 and A$0.8047 are reasonable areas to take profits along the way.

3. Origin Protocol (OGN)

Origin Protocol OGN is a network that allows market participants to share goods and services through peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. The platform aims to create an extensive online marketplace leveraging the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain and Interplanetary File System (IPFS) in order to eliminate the need for middlemen.

OGN Price Analysis

At the time of writing, OGN is ranked the 134th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$1.08. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

OGN climbed just over 20% from July’s monthly open as it positioned itself to challenge two old swing highs.

The region between A$0.8568 and A$0.8047 has provided support for the last few days, making it a reasonable place for aggressive traders to take smaller-size positions. However, a better risk-reward entry might form at support between A$0.9144 and A$0.9572.

If the resistance between A$1.17 and A$1.30 breaks, the next resistance is between A$1.41 and the May swing high at A$1.68, which marks the first primary target for this trend.

Beyond this first target, traders could target a swing high from last April at A$2.30 and possibly up to resistance between A$2.51 and A$2.72.

These three coins have the high liquidity on Binance Exchange, so that could help with trading on AUD/USDT/BTC pairs. And if you’re looking at buying and HODLing cryptos, then Swyftx Exchange is an easy-to-use popular choice in Australia.

Top 3 Coins To Watch Today: HBAR, ZEC, GRT – July 14 Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.

1. Hedera Hashgraph (HBAR)

Billed as the “trust layer of the internet”, Hedera Hashgraph HBAR is a public network that allows individuals and businesses to create powerful decentralised applications (DApps).

It is designed to be a fairer, more efficient system that eliminates some of the limitations older blockchain-based platforms face, such as slow performance and instability.

HBAR Price Analysis

At the time of writing, HBAR is ranked the 54th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$0.2414. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

During the weekend it swung around A$0.2614 as it tested support near A$0.2247.

Following H4 candle chart: HBAR is forming a channel in red but our upper trendline is not valid yet, so we are waiting for a new swing high to form around it to consider it our trigger swing.

Aggressive traders expecting expansion to the upside could look for entries near possible support around A$0.2094. Bids near A$0.1855 may be able to capitalise on an attempt to run the stops below the weekend’s swing low. A stop run below this low may reach into possible support near A$0.1529.

In the short term, A$0.3442 may provide some resistance. The swing high near A$0.3169 looks like a first target, with the area just above up to A$0.3352 possibly creating resistance.

2. Zcash (ZEC)

ZEC is a decentralised cryptocurrency focused on privacy and anonymity. It uses the zk-SNARK zero-knowledge proof technology that allows nodes on the network to verify transactions without revealing any sensitive information about those transactions.

ZEC Price Analysis

At the time of writing, ZEC is ranked the 64th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$141.34. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

The weekend’s 21% drop was immediately bought up and closed the day bullish, suggesting strength for ZEC bulls.

Aggressive traders could look for support near A$132.25. Levels near A$125.78 and A$118.57 also provide areas for bids during a retracement.

The A$110.25 lower range of support is coinciding with the 100W Moving Average, which has been respected multiple times since August 2020 and up until January 2021.

Little resistance rests overhead, but the area between A$145.62 and the swing high at A$152.74 may cap an initial move upward. Extensions seem to indicate A$163.55 and A$169.24 as take-profit zones.

3. The Graph (GRT)

The Graph GRT is working to bring reliable decentralised public infrastructure to the mainstream market. To ensure economic security of The Graph Network and the integrity of data being queried, participants use Graph Token. GRT is a work token that is locked-up by Indexers, Curators and Delegators in order to provide indexing and curating services to the network.

GRT Price Analysis

At the time of writing, GRT is ranked the 48th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$0.8814. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

An impressive 163% two months for GRT has retraced over 56% as the price consolidates near the weekly gap beginning near A$0.8547.

The equal lows at this weekly gap might see a stop run before any further move up. The area near A$0.8214 at the top of a daily gap could provide support.

The bottom of the gap seems a more likely support, ranging from approximately A$0.7244 to the consolidation that started the massive move upward. If this level fails, traders could look for sensitivity near the middle of the monthly gap near A$0.6437.

Impulses upward during retracement are possible, but the most substantial resistance seems just below the June swing high near A$1.10. This swing high provides a clear first target, with any targets beyond challenging to predict.

Where to Buy or Trade Altcoins?

These three coins have the high liquidity on Binance Exchange, so that could help with trading on AUD/USDT/BTC pairs. And if you’re looking at buying and HODLing cryptos, then Swyftx Exchange is an easy-to-use popular choice in Australia.

Top 3 Coins To Watch Today: BNB, FWT, KAVA – July 13 Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.

1. Binance Coin (BNB)

BNB is the cryptocurrency of the Binance platform. It is a trading platform exclusively for cryptocurrencies. The name “Binance” is a combination of binary and finance. The cryptocurrency currently has a daily trading volume of 1.5 billion – 2 billion US dollars and is still increasing. In total, there will only be 200 million BNBs. 

BNB Price Analysis

At the time of writing, BNB is ranked the 4th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$430.07. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

After dropping nearly 70% in less than two weeks, BNB found a low just above the monthly gap near A$282.79. Since then, the price has been consolidating in a range between A$578.41 and A$282.79.

The weekly level near A$388.55 may continue to provide support during a run on the local swing lows. The monthly gap beginning near A$280.79 will likely give the next higher-timeframe support if this level fails.

The price is currently chewing into potentially strong resistance near A$437.50. A sweep of the relatively equal highs near A$456.85, and a daily close above this level could signal a move to the next set of relatively equal highs near A$507.05. 

Just above these highs, probable resistance rests near A$525.96, which may cap the price until the market moves out of consolidation. However, any significant bullish shift in market conditions during the next few weeks could help bulls reach the swing high near A$578.41, running stops into probable resistance near A$616.71.

2. Freeway Token (FWT)

FWT are the native utility tokens for AuBit Freeway – a ground-breaking new asset management platform built for greater total returns on the world’s top investment products with no additional risk.

FWT Price Analysis

At the time of writing, FWT is ranked the 488th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$0.0118. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

FWT accompanied the rest of the market in the mid-Q2 drop, falling nearly 83% from its mid-May high until it found a low late in June.

Price action in late June formed a weekly support level near A$0.011, which has so far held up the price. The most recent swing low inside this range, near A$0.010, might be the target for any future stop runs. After this low, the swing low near A$0.0072 and the gap beginning near A$0.0071 marks possible higher-timeframe support.

The price is currently battling with significant higher-timeframe resistance levels, with the closest probable resistance resting near A$0.012, just over the July monthly open. A sweep of the relatively equal highs above this resistance might find sellers near A$0.013 – but could reach as high as A$0.016.

3. Kava.io (KAVA)

Kava is a cross-chain DeFi lending platform that allows users to borrow USDX stablecoins and deposit a variety of cryptocurrencies to begin earning a yield. The Kava DeFi hub operates like a decentralised bank for digital assets, allowing users to access a range of decentralised financial services, including its native USD-pegged stablecoin USDX, as well as synthetics and derivatives. Through Kava, users are able to borrow USDX tokens by depositing collateral, effectively leveraging their exposure to crypto assets.

KAVA Price Analysis

KAVA is ranked the 124th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$$5.83. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

KAVA has been trading through a massive range since April, with the price showing mild bullishness during July.

The breaks of the swing highs at A$5.46 and A$6.02 led to support forming near A$5.55. Some bulls will likely wait for a more favourable entry on a potential stop run that could reach near A$4.74. 

If the support near A$5.55 continues to hold, the recent swing high at $4.9845 is likely the next short-term target. This potential bullish swing might end with a run on short stops up to A$7.61 and A$7.88. 

Higher-timeframe resistance between A$7.59 and A$8.12 may cap any move upwards until the overall market becomes more bullish. However, any significant bearish move in Bitcoin will likely push the price down toward the low and possible support near A$2.82.

Where to Buy or Trade Altcoins?

These three coins have the high liquidity on Binance Exchange, so that could help with trading on AUD/USDT/BTC pairs. And if you’re looking at buying and HODLing cryptos, then Swyftx Exchange is an easy-to-use popular choice in Australia.

Top 3 Coins To Watch This Week: CELR, FET, SXP – Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at this week’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you.

1. Celer Network (CELR)

The Celer Network (CELR) is a smartly designed layer-2 scaling solution that provides off-chain transactions handling. The Celer platform offers fast, simple and secure off-chain transactions for both payments and smart contracts. The project was among the first to be developed using the Substrate framework and is part of the Polkadot ecosystem. As to the overall goal of the network, its founders envisioned unleashing the full potential of blockchain and revolutionising Dapps with more efficient and productive outputs.

CELR Price Analysis

At the time of writing, CELR is ranked the 174th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$0.03565. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

After retracing nearly 80 percent from its highs, CELR wicked into the monthly gap beginning near A$0.02814. This wick formed the bottom of the current range.

The price shows no apparent signs of a longer-term reversal, which may mean that the closest resistance near A$0.04012 will continue to suppress the price. However, some support could be found near the monthly open, possibly giving bulls footing for a stop run through the swing high at A$0.04296. 

This move could continue into resistance near A$0.04731 and spike through the relatively equal highs near A$0.05047. A break of the next swing high near A$0.05631 is likely to find resistance once it reaches A$0.05733. If this move occurs, it may suggest a longer-term reversal.

A retest of possible support near A$0.03142 could provide an entry for a short-term trade. However, there is a higher probability for more substantial support near A$00.01715 after a run on the lows at A$0.02810 and A$0.01715.

2. Fetch.ai (FET)

Fetch.ai is a platform that aims to connect Internet of Things (IoT) devices and algorithms to enable collective learning. It was launched in 2017 by a team based in Cambridge, UK. Fetch.ai is built on a high-throughput sharded ledger and offers smart contract capabilities to deploy machine learning and artificial intelligence solutions for decentralised problem-solving.

These open-source tools are designed to help users create ecosystem infrastructure and deploy commercial models.

FET Price Analysis

At the time of writing, FET is ranked the 156th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$0.3367. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

FET has dropped nearly 82 percent from its highs, with the current low’s wick on June 22 taking stops below two major swing lows.

The resulting bounce found resistance near A$0.3764, which could continue to cap upward movement. If the price finds support in the current region near A$0.3536, it could continue to resistance near A$0.4183. A more substantial move might run stops above the swing high near A$0.4536 into resistance near A$0.4718.

A break below the monthly open is likely to target buy stops near A$0.2710, an area that could provide some support. A move below this level could target below the swing low at A$0.2169, possibly reaching the gap beginning near A$0.1700.

3. Swipe (SXP)

Swipe is a platform that looks to form a bridge between the fiat and cryptocurrency worlds with its three main existing products: the Swipe multi-asset mobile wallet, the Swipe cryptocurrency-funded debit card, and the Swipe Token (SXP).

This ecosystem is powered by the Swipe Token (SXP), which functions as the fuel for the Swipe Network, and is used for paying transaction fees. Holders of SXP tokens are eligible for exclusive discounts on the Swipe app and the token can be used for making fiat payments with the Swipe debit card.

SXP Price Analysis

At the time of writing, SXP is ranked the 158th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$2.59. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

SXP’s 77 percent drop has filled the February monthly gap twice as the price consolidates between A$1.78 and A$3.31.

Price’s current region, between A$2.69 and A$2.50 and just under the monthly open, could continue to give support. If this area continues to hold, the cluster of relatively equal range highs up to A$3.31 is a likely target. 

An animated move through these highs could reach up to the daily gap beginning at A$3.69. The area between A$4.26 and A$4.07 provides a likely cap for a move into this zone.

A drop lower could be a run-on stop under A$2.38 and find support near A$2.24. If this level is lost, the swing low at A$1.78 is a likely target, with A$1.60 possibly giving support.

Where to Buy or Trade Altcoins?

These three Altcoins have the high liquidity on Binance Exchange, so that could help with trading on USDT or BTC pairs. And if you’re looking at buying and HODLing cryptos, then Swyftx Exchange is an easy-to-use popular choice in Australia.

Australia Crypto Exchange Swyftx

Aussie Crypto Exchange Swyftx Releases New Crypto Swap Feature

One of Australia’s largest exchanges, Swyftx, now allows investors to swap one cryptocurrency for another without having to convert it to fiat first.

Swyftx announced the new ‘Swap’ feature on June 17, reminding its users that while the ability to directly swap cryptos would make their lives easier, fees would still apply and each swap would count as a taxable event.

The Swap feature works with any cryptos actively listed on the platform, enabling users to buy into new assets even when they don’t have fiat currency available in their account.

Swyftx has grown rapidly since its launch in 2017 – it now has over 300,000 users, hosts more than 260 assets, and has a monthly trading volume of A$2 billion.

How Does It Work?

Using the hypothetical scenario of wanting to exchange Bitcoin for some Ethereum, using Swyftx’s new Swap feature a trader can automatically execute a sell order for Bitcoin and a buy order for Ethereum simultaneously. 

Within the app, a trader follows these steps:

  1. Select the asset
  2. Click the Swap tab at the top of the page
  3. Type the $ amount that you want to exchange
  4. Select the asset you wish to swap it for from the dropdown; and
  5. Click Swap to confirm the order.

Focus on Customers Drives Innovation

Swyft’s founder, Alex Harper, has previously described the importance of customer support and product innovation to the popularity of the exchange.

Notable features brought to market in 2021 include a portfolio tracking feature that lets traders see their profit/loss status in real-time, and the ability to pay using credit/debit cards – becoming the first Australian exchange to do so.

Top 3 Coins To Watch This Week: EGLD, MINA, ORN – Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at this week’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you.

1. Elrond (EGLD)

Elrond is a blockchain protocol that seeks to offer extremely fast transaction speeds by using sharding. The project describes itself as a technology ecosystem for the new internet, which includes fintech, decentralised finance and the Internet of Things. Its smart contracts execution platform is reportedly capable of 15,000 transactions per second, six-second latency and a $0.001 transaction cost.

EGLD Price Analysis

At the time of writing, EGLD is ranked the 63rd cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$94. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: Tradingview

EGLD‘s stunning – nearly 4,000% – climb since Q4 2020 has since retraced 73%, finding some support near A$87.05.

Retracements toward the monthly open, possibly running stops near $141.15 and $147.60, are likely to be capped between $145.25 and $153.64. A break through this level may find another area of resistance near the gap and old swing lows near $161.62 – possibly spiking up to $177.82.

The price appears to be struggling to maintain support between $113.23 and $98.69, making the swing lows near $100.85, $87.05, and $76.99 likely shorter-term targets. 

A run on these lows could find another area of support near $73.95. If this area fails to hold, a drop to the lower end of the monthly gap around $39.54 may be on the cards, with $34.02 offering some hope of support.

2. Mina Protocol (MINA)

Mina Protocol is a minimal “succinct blockchain” built to curtail computational requirements in order to run DApps more efficiently. Mina has been described as the world’s lightest blockchain, since its size is designed to remain constant despite growth in usage. Furthermore, it remains balanced in terms of security and decentralisation. Mina is working on achieving an efficient distributed payment system that enables users to natively verify the platform right from the genesis block. Its technical whitepaper calls this a “succinct blockchain”.

Mina Price Analysis

At the time of writing, MINA is ranked the 233rd cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$2.08. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

MINA has continued its steady downtrend. Meanwhile, the chart offers bulls no strong support for long entries.

The recent low at A$2.39 is likely to be swept – a region that offers a glimmer of hope for support based on some methods of measuring moves. However, bulls are likely to wait for more signs of support and a market structure shift before entering long positions.

Resistance rests just overhead between $2.77 and $3.26. The gap at $3.04 offers a high probability target for any potential downtrend retracements. 

A more substantial bullish shift in the markets could help the price run the stops near $4.11 into resistance, beginning near $4.19. Any move upward is likely to find a cap near $5.51, although the current chart offers no hints that a movement this large should occur anytime soon.

3. Orion Protocol (ORN)

Orion aims to solve the difficulties in performing profitable transactions associated with the lack of liquidity on the majority of crypto exchanges. This is the case for both centralised and decentralised exchanges. Orion’s solution to this is to aggregate exchanges’ order books into one simple-to-use-and-understand terminal.

The Orion Protocol’s goal is to help users get the best returns out of their investments while also lowering the risks associated with using multiple exchanges.

ORN Price Analysis

At the time of writing, ORN is ranked the 236th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$8.54. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: Tradingview

After an 83% retracement from its March highs, ORN found a temporary low near A$6.53. A recent move above $12.61 could be the first sign of a bullish shift – but could also signal a stop run before the next drop lower. 

If the market adopts a more bullish tone, the price could run through the most recent swing high. If this bounce occurs, it would likely find some resistance near $13.85, possibly reaching up to $16.51.

However, a move below the closest support near $6.558 makes stop runs on the swing lows near $7.63 and $6.53 likely. A confluence of several levels near $5.71 could provide a temporary bounce. Still, a sustained bearish market will likely target $5.18 and even $2.39.

Aussie Crypto Tax Guide 2021 – 3 Key Points

With the ATO set to target Aussie crypto investors it is important that you understand that you need to declare your crypto in your tax returns.

To help you get ready for tax time in Australia, we’ve taken the main things you need to consider when declaring your cryptocurrencies.

You can check out the full guide, written by Australian crypto exchange Swyftx. They have also created a crypto tax calculator which you can use to get an estimate on your tax payable.

Crypto Tax Calculator Australia by Swyftx

Everyone has different tax situations so please clarify your personal circumstances with your accountant.

1. Investor vs Trader

First up, the Australian Tax Office (ATO) does not view crypto as money. Instead, crypto is seen as property, subjecting it to the Capital Gains Tax (CGT). This classification means that you  should update your info every time you buy, sell or gift crypto. Keep in mind that HODLing for 12 months or more will bring with it a 50% CGT discount.

Going further, if you can classify yourself as a trader, your income might instead be taxed as business proceeds.

Here’s how to tell which category you fall into.

Investor: If you’re using crypto mostly as a personal investment and earning most of your profits by making long-term investments, you would be classified as an investor.

Trader: If, on the other hand, you are running a business involving cryptocurrency, you could be classified as a trader. For instance, if you buy crypto in order to turn a profit for clients from whom you receive a commission, you could be classified as a trader.

Keep in mind that the ATO has to agree with you on this – so make sure you keep accounting records, follow a business plan, and stick to your planned business model.

2. Capital Losses and Total Assessable Income

While the CGT will deduct from your crypto profits, the reverse is also true – if you’ve lost money trading on one trade while making money on another, the financial hit you’ve taken on the negative trade can help offset the CGT owed from the positive trade.

Furthermore, your income tax and CGT tax are paid together – this is called Total Assessable Income. Make sure to combine your incomes from all taxable sources in order to figure out which tax bracket you fall into.

What Information Does The ATO Collect? The ATO can collect personal information – including your ABN – from Designated Service Providers (DSPs) in order to ensure accurate income reporting.

When is CGT applied? CGT is applied whenever you dispose of your crypto, whether by giving it away, trading it or selling it. So if you bought Bitcoin five years ago but haven’t touched your stash yet, you’re good to go.

Personal Use Assets: Although CGT can be charged in some cases when crypto is used in order to buy goods and services, it may be classified as a Personal Use Asset, and therefore exempt from CGT.

Fred is buying a new laptop from his favourite online retailer. They offer discounts on purchases made in cryptocurrency, so Fred uses Australian dollars to purchase cryptocurrency, and on the same day purchase his laptop. In this instance, cryptocurrency would be constituted as a personal use asset.

3. Getting Paid In Crypto

If you work for a crypto-related business, you’re probably getting at least a part of your pay cheque in crypto. In this case, crypto would be classified as personal income tax, not as a capital gain.

Although crypto taxes can be confusing to deal with at first, Swyftx exchange does all it can to help by partnering with developers that provide accurate reporting tools – and by keeping easy-to-understand records of your activity.

Top 3 Coins To Watch This Week: MINA, MTS, XVS – Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at this week’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you.

1. Mina Protocol (MINA)

Mina Protocol is a minimal “succinct blockchain” built to curtail computational requirements in order to run DApps more efficiently. Mina has been described as the world’s lightest blockchain since its size is designed to remain constant despite growth in usage. Furthermore, it remains balanced in terms of security and decentralisation. Mina is working on achieving an efficient distributed payment system that enables users to natively verify the platform right from the genesis block. Its technical whitepaper calls this a “succinct blockchain”.

Mina Price Analysis

At the time of writing, MINA is ranked the 223rd cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$3.68. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis.

Since the beginning of June, MINA has been in a gentle downtrend. The future likely holds more stop runs and erratic volatility until the chart forms more substantial high-timeframe levels.

A retracement might uncover support near A$3.50, which is the daily high of the last swing low. The high of the wick beginning near $3.02 may also provide support. However, bulls will likely remain wary of the current downtrend, making the low at $2.71 the likely next bearish target.

Just above, the daily gap beginning near $4.10 may provide resistance to bulls, possibly marking a future range high. A push through this level is likely to target the swing high near $5.12 – perhaps running to probable resistance near $5.38. Strength above this level might signal the start of a bullish trend, encouraging bulls to “buy the dip”.

2. Metal (MTL)

Metal (MTL) is the native currency of Metal products and an essential part of the Metal ecosystem. Sending and receiving any crypto to friends on Metal Pay is, according to the team, instant, and feeless. Designed to make cryptocurrency payments fast and easy, users pay zero fees when sending, receiving, buying or selling MTL.

MTL Price Analysis

At the time of writing, MTL is ranked the 190th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$2.91. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis.

Source: TradingView

March 29’s 450% bullish daily candle has since bled near 85%, with the MTL finding a low near $2.02 in mid-May.

Bulls are buying each drop into support near $2.74, with higher lows forming each time. However, the equal lows near $2.56 create an attractive target for a stop run. Still, bulls might buy this dip near possible support beginning at $2.44.

Just over the June monthly open, $3.18 marks the beginning of a probable resistance zone. A breakthrough in this area might target the equal highs near $3.57 before running into possible resistance near $3.75.

A sustained move upward – perhaps from a market-wide bullish shift – could reach the swing high near $4.77 before encountering probable resistance near $4.87.

3. Venus (XVS)

Venus is an algorithmic money market and synthetic stablecoin protocol launched exclusively on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). The protocol introduces simple-to-use crypto-asset lending and borrowing solution to the decentralised finance (DeFi) ecosystem, enabling users to directly borrow against collateral at high speed while losing less to transaction fees. In addition, Venus allows users to mint VAI stablecoins on-demand within seconds by posting at least 200% collateral to the Venus smart contract.

XVS Price Analysis

At the time of writing, XVS is ranked the 144th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is A$33.02. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis.

Source: TradingView

During five days in May, XVS dumped over 86% before finding support near $25.67. Consolidation above this level has created a series of relatively equal lows, which are likely to be swept before any longer-term bullish trend begins. 

In the shorter term, the price might establish support near $32.72 before running the swing high at $37.28. If this bullish move occurs, the price could reach resistance near the June monthly open around $42.94 – and even sweep the swing high near $46.42.

Some support might exist at the daily gap near $20.11. A move this low would also fill the February monthly gap and set the stage for a possible bullish reversal.

If this level fails to hold, the price will likely explore the next monthly gap between $12.30 and $6.21. In this zone, the daily swing low at $8.66 makes a likely target.
