It gained over 10% and was able to clear the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $8.00 resistance zone to $3.70 low. On the upside, the $6.00 level and a major bearish trend line on the daily chart hold the key for the bulls.

A close above the trend line might start a fresh increase towards the $8.00 resistance. The next major resistance is near the $10.00 level. If there is no upside break, the price could restart decline and test the $4.00 level.

Cardano (ADA) declined over 6% and there was a move below the $0.488 support. The next major support sits near $0.465.

BNB is moving lower towards the $302 and $300 support levels. A downside break below the $300 level could start a major decline.
