Bitcoin broke recent resistance over the weekend and is now making what looks to be an orderly move higher, something not normally associated with the volatile cryptocurrency space. The next level of technical resistance is close by with the 61.8% Fibonacci Retracement just above $51,100 before the mid-May double-top around $59,500 comes into view. The 20-day sma is about to break above the 200-day sma, underlining the positive mood in the market.

Cardano continues to cement its position as the third-largest cryptocurrency by market cap ($91 billion) and is carrying on printing a series of fresh record highs. With little on the charts to suggest technical levels of resistance, big figures at $3 and $3.50 may act as initial areas of opposition although the current level of enthusiasm for the coin may leave these levels moot. For now, buyers remain in control of the market.
