$HIVE, $BTC & ETH/BTC Technical Analysis - 24.05.2026

in LeoFinance21 hours ago

I'm a bit early with my analysis post today, but it doesn't matter as the market is not doing much today, I mean there's not much momentum. However, I'd be cautious as there's a possibility for something to happen regarding the Iran situation. If an announcement is made by the US or the other party, it can move the market. Anyway, let's get started.

The monthly chart looks a bit better compared to last week, but only compared to last week as price is trading at $0.061 at the time of writing, compared to $0.0597 last week. However, if you look at the monthly candle, you see a candle so many token holders don't want to see. We had a big move to the upside, then price literally came back to monthly open as there was no buying pressure to keep price at that level. As a trader, we trade the markets both ways, so every move is an opportunity, like was this one too, to make some money.

Anyway, we still have a week till the candle close, we'll see after the candle close, but as long as we get a bullish candle (white one), I'm ok with that.

The weekly chart look different, although it says the same thing, just in a different way. You can see the big spike we had three weeks ago, after which came the bearish candle and this week we have a bullish candle, which closes in about 17 hours. Unfortunately the big upside wick tell you that selling pressure was again dominating as it push price back to $0.061.

The two levels I'd watch in case you want to trade or swap are swing low at $0.0553 and the current swing high at $0.0988, which seems miles away from where we are now.

On the daily time frame we had a bullish move yesterday, price swept liquidity till $0.0688 and then sold off. Today we have no momentum as price has printed a doji so far, which means indecision.

Price needs to close above $0.0643, to set the bullish order block, then continue to the upside, but if there's more weakness, we could see $0.0569 revisited.

This is not how I trade, but this support/resistance level marked with grey makes a lot of sense. Just look at how many times price has touched it. So if we take it into consideration, this level has to hold, otherwise it becomes resistance again.

On a more granular scale, the h4 time frame shows $HIVE trading above the bullish gap created yesterday, which has not been retested yet. This gap has to defend price, if we want bullish continuation. If the gap is lost, we could go back to $0.0578 and potentially $0.0569.

This week $BTC lost the bullish gap, which could not hold price and swept $74,900, as I mentioned the possibility of it in my last week's analysis. We got a bounce there, but there's no enough bullish momentum yet, the order block has not been set yet. Let's see if we continue to the upside or we go lower. I'd be careful here.

***ETH/BTC *** has not done much lately. price is still retesting the top bullish gap. We either get a bounce here, which would be ideal, or we retest the second gap.

Next week we only have one red folder day, but geo-political events can move the market, so stay safe.

Remember, technical analysis is not about forecasting price, but about reacting to what price does.

As always, this is a game of probabilities, not certainties. Also please note, this is not financial advice, it's my view and understanding of the market.

Nice analysis, thanks for sharing. HIVE is looking a bit tough right now, really need to be careful. For BTC, I’m watching $75,080 as the key support. If it breaks below that, I think we might drop to $70,580 - $68,350. Let’s see what happens next. Keep it up.

Thanks. I don't trade BTC, or not frequently, but keeping an eye on it as its moves can influence the crypto market.

Totally get that. It's impossible to ignore btc regardless of whether you trade it or not.

Price came back to monthly open because there was no buying pressure to keep it there."

That line says a lot. A big pump means nothing if the demand isn't real.

The Iran situation is something to watch — one headline can move the market fast.

I'm not trading, just watching and learning. But posts like this help me understand why price moves the way it does.

Thanks for the caution. 🙏

Yes, $HIVE is an illiquid asset and a slightly bigger order can cause a spike like we saw at the beginning of the month, then price goes back to where it was as there's no buying pressure or should I say the selling pressure is bigger.

The Iran situation is something to watch — one headline can move the market fast.

It can definitely move the market, but this was has been dragged on for months now and it is not news anymore. However, with a crazy actor like Trump, he's capable of manipulating everyone and say things just to benefit his family's trades.

I'm glad you find my post helpful.

Have a nice Sunday!

You're right — HIVE is illiquid. A small buy can pump it, but without real demand, it just comes back down. That's something I'm still learning to understand.

And true about Trump — with him, anything is possible. One tweet can move markets.

I always appreciate your posts. You see things clearly.

By the way, I just followed you. Would be great to connect — follow back if you're open to it. 🙏
