80%-100% rallies are normal even in bear market environments. If Bitcoin is able to move back above $12,000 within the next couple of months it will be a bullish sign that the long term bull market is potentially still intact. Meanwhile, bears will be looking for the current rally to end fairly soon as supply comes back into the market near previous areas of support (~$11,000).

Turning to Ethereum (ETH) we see a very similar situation with a 70%+ rally from the low a couple weeks ago now running into major levels of previous support:

The odds favor ETH pulling back before rising above $1,000, the less likely scenario involves an immediate breakout above support/resistance ($940-$980) before an eventual pullback to retest the support/resistance area. Support at $900 followed by $850.

Turning to total cryptocurrency market capitalization we have moved above US$500 billion in the last 24 hours and it is difficult to overstate the importance of the US$500 billion market cap level from a technical standpoint:

Let’s see if the rally can hold above US$500 billion throughout the President’s Day holiday weekend in the US.
