The post Top Altcoins To Watch Next Week: Binance Coin (BNB), XRP, And Solana (SOL) Prices Set For Renewed Gains appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Prices of altcoins find it challenging to capture market interest as Bitcoin’s movement experiences a halt around the significant $52,000 level. Nevertheless, Bitcoin’s market dominance continues its upward trajectory, contrasted by a downturn in altcoins. Yet, leading altcoins are drawing focus due to strong purchasing activity, triggering hopes for a bullish week ahead for Binance Coin (BNB), XRP, and Solana.

Bitcoin’s Slowdown Might Pump Altcoins

This week, Bitcoin surged past the $52,000 mark, with the rally showing no signs of slowing down. This suggests continuous demand for Bitcoin at increasingly higher levels. According to a report from on-chain data analytics firm CryptoQuant, it’s estimated that over “75% of new investment into Bitcoin” originates from spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Yet, it’s important to remember that no asset can rise indefinitely. Some analysts believe the current rally may be approaching an overheated state in the short term. Predicting the peak is challenging amidst strong momentum, but history shows that periods of high enthusiasm often reach a top before experiencing significant pullbacks. In such a case, there might be a massive shift in funds toward altcoins.

Binance Coin (BNB) Price Analysis

BNB price is attempting to breach the $370 level but is facing resistance from bears. As a result, there’s a robust battle between the traders near $350. Currently, BNB price is trading at $352, declining over 1.7% from yesterday’s rate. 

The extended wicks on the candlesticks indicate that bears are attempting to resist the upward trend near $367. To plunge the bullish momentum, sellers must force the price below $337. Achieving this could lead the BNB price to decline towards the $319 level. However, this level might attract buyers.

However, if the price remains stable around its current level, it signifies bullish confidence in the continuation of the upward trajectory. Surpassing $370 could pave the way for a potential climb to $400.

XRP Price Analysis

XRP experienced a rejection near the resistance of $0.58, triggering a minor correction below the 0.023 Fib level. However, buyers hold confidence by defending a decline below moving averages. As of writing, XRP price trades at $0.54, declining over 2.5% from yesterday’s rate. 

The price has approached the downtrend line, a zone where a significant clash between buyers and sellers is anticipated. Should the buyers emerge victorious, the XRP price might rebound and surge above $0.59. Although there’s a slight resistance near $0.6, it’s expected to be easily surpassed.

On the flip side, a sharp downturn from the current position, breaching below the EMA lines, would indicate that sellers are effectively guarding the downtrend line. This scenario could lead the price to retract to $0.50.

Solana (SOL) Price Analysis

Solana witnessed a drop from $116 as selling pressure intensified at this level, potentially setting the stage for a return to the neckline of the inverse head-and-shoulders pattern at $103. Currently, the price of SOL is at $106, marking a 2.1% decrease from the previous day’s value. 

If the price manages to rebound from the neckline, this could signal that buyers have effectively established this level as a support zone, which might lead to a rally beyond $126. Subsequently, the SOL price could target $135.

Conversely, a drop below the neckline could suggest that sellers are capitalizing on price increases to sell off. While buyers may try to stem the decline at the moving averages, failing to maintain this could lead to a drop to $93.
