Bitcoin Struggles To Hold $40K While Crypto Track US Stocks – NewsBTC

Crypto is mirroring stock markets’ gains again today, with Wall Street’s sharp climb after opening higher likely to provide further impetus for Bitcoin.

The BTC/USD pair is trading above $40,000 while ETH/USD has gained ground close to the $3,000 resistance level.

The S&P 500 is up 2.3%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is higher by 1.7%, and the Nasdaq Composite leads the upside with 2.8%.

The bitcoin price is holding well above $38,000, but it’s close to touching another key supply wall at $40,000.

I think that it’s still at the mercy of BTC though, as always – if BTC tanks, so will ETH.

Bitcoin has been below its 100-day moving average for a few weeks.
