 <p class=""><strong>Bitcoin’s (BTC) market value has faced challenges in stabilising above the $52,000 mark, yet this stabilisation period might prove advantageous for other cryptocurrencies.</strong></p>
 <p class="">The S&amp;P 500 Index saw its five-week streak of gains end, dropping 0.42% the previous week, triggered by the U.S. Consumer Price Index and Producer Price Index for January exceeding forecasts. The unexpected rise in inflation metrics fueled worries that the Federal Reserve might postpone interest rate reductions until later in the year, contrary to earlier predictions of a cut by March.</p>
 <p class="">Despite these negative economic indicators, Bitcoin experienced an 8% surge, closing the week at $52,137, marking its highest weekly closure since November 2021. The recent persistence of $52,000 as a point of resistance has not prompted quick profit-taking among Bitcoin investors, indicating continued long-term optimism within the market.</p>

 <p class="">Another positive in favour of Bitcoin is that outflows from the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) have been slowing down. After bleeding $5.64 billion in January, the&nbsp;outflows from GBTC have slowed&nbsp;to $1.37 billion in February.</p>
 <p class="">Could Bitcoin start the next leg of the uptrend, pulling select altcoins higher? Let’s analyze the charts to find out.</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="sp-500-index-spx-market-analysis">S&amp;P 500 Index (SPX) Market Analysis</h2>
 <p class="">The S&amp;P 500 Index rebounded off the 20-day exponential moving average (4,940) on Feb. 13, indicating an uptrend.</p>
 <div class="wp-block-image">
  <figure class="aligncenter"><img decoding="async" src="https://cdn.thebittimes.com/images/2024/02/20/ad59c56cae67208f27bbb794fec4aeaf.webp" alt="" data-recalc-dims="1">

 <p class="">However, the bears are not ready to give up easily and are trying to protect the overhead resistance 5,048. The negative divergence on the relative strength index (RSI) cautions of a possible correction or consolidation in the short term.</p>
 <p class="">A break below the 20-day EMA will indicate the start of a deeper correction. The index could then drop to the 50-day simple moving average (4,813) and 4,650.</p>
 <p class="">Contrary to this assumption, if the index continues higher and breaks above 5,048, it will signal the resumption of the uptrend. The index could then surge toward 5,200.</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="u-s-dollar-index-dxy-market-analysis">U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) Market Analysis</h2>
 <p class="">The U.S. dollar Index attempted to start an up move on Feb. 13, but the rally met with intense selling pressure near 105.</p>
 <div class="wp-block-image">
  <figure class="aligncenter"><img decoding="async" src="https://cdn.thebittimes.com/images/2024/02/20/7cc71e97828bc71153dc9140cb3fbe4e.webp" alt="" data-recalc-dims="1">

 <p class="">The price turned down and reached the 20-day EMA (104), a necessary support to watch out for. If the price rebounds off the 20-day EMA, the bulls will make one more attempt to propel the index to 106 and then to 107.</p>
 <p class="">Conversely, if the index breaks below the 20-day EMA, it will indicate that higher levels continue to attract selling by the bears. The index may then slump to the 50-day SMA (103), likely attracting buyers.</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="bitcoin-btc-market-analysis">Bitcoin (BTC) Market Analysis</h2>
 <p class="">Bitcoin is consolidating in an uptrend. The bears are trying to stall the rally at $52,000, but the bulls have kept up the pressure.</p>
 <div class="wp-block-image">
  <figure class="aligncenter"><img decoding="async" src="https://cdn.thebittimes.com/images/2024/02/20/e90b9abad4044ce27b9c1d1d46ce8be1.webp" alt="" data-recalc-dims="1">

 </div>
 <p class="">A tight consolidation near a crucial resistance generally resolves to the upside. If the bulls shove and maintain the price above $52,000, it will indicate the start of the next leg of the uptrend. The BTC/USDT pair could then surge toward $60,000.</p>
 <p class="">If bears want to prevent the move, they must quickly drag the price below the 20-day EMA ($48,260). If they do that, the stops of several short-term traders may get hit. The pair could then plunge to the 50-day SMA ($44,647).</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ether-eth-price-analysis">Ether (ETH) Price Analysis</h2>
 <p class="">Ether&nbsp;rebounded off $2,717 on Feb. 17, indicating that the bulls are trying to flip the level into support.</p>

 </div>
 <p class="">The ETH/USDT pair rose above the immediate resistance of $2,868 on Feb. 18, indicating the resumption of the uptrend. Buyers will try to maintain the momentum and kick the price to $ the psychologically critical level of $3,000.</p>
 <p class="">The rally of the past few days has sent the RSI above 78, indicating the possibility of a minor correction or consolidation in the near term. Sellers must tug the price below the 20-day EMA ($2,615) to signal a short-term top.</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="bnb-price-analysis">BNB Price Analysis</h2>

The SOL/USDT pair could retest the stiff overhead resistance of $127. If this level is scaled, the pair may reach the pattern target of $135.</p> <p class="">This optimistic view will be negated soon if the price turns down and dives below the 20-day EMA.
