Polkadot (DOT) ends weekend with 10% surge
Signs of strength slip into Bitcoin markets but altcoins are proving more interesting as the weekend draws to a close. Bitcoin (BTC) hit problems at $46,000 on Sept. 12 after a “strong bullish divergence” on lower timeframes met with resistance. Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC/USD reject sharply after hitting local highs of $46,280 on Bitstamp. The move continues a ranging weekend, over which the pair failed to recover from Friday’s sell-off. $45,500 is an important level for Bitcoin in the form of its 50-day moving average, a level which on Sunday continued to hold as support. As noted by trader and analyst Rekt Capital, lower timeframes showed increasing strength on the day, with a “strong bullish divergence” characterizing the 4-hour chart. At the time of writing, however, no new levels had entered as support.
“Bitcoin formed a Lower Low on the 4-hour timeframe during the days spanning the 8th and 10th of September,” he summarized. “Over the course of the 10th and 12th of September however, $BTC formed a new Higher Low on the 4-hour timeframe.”
Cointelegraph contributing analyst Michaël van de Poppe was also on the lookout for a higher low construction. “Looking at a higher low to be constructed at Bitcoin and then we're ready to go toward $50K,” he said Saturday.
Polkadot leads Sunday's altcoin moves
As Cointelegraph reported, expectations include a Bitcoin price dip to as low as $38,000 at worst, with September poised to be a month of rumination for the bull run continues. Bitcoin’s overall crypto market dominance continued to fall at the weekend, nearing 40% in what could prove to be a boon for altcoin performance.
Signs of life were already present on major alts Sunday, with Polkadot (DOT) leading the top ten with 10% daily gains. The largest altcoin, Ether (ETH), was up 3.2% at $3,425, albeit still down 13% compared to its position last weekend.
