This would mean that the pair could stay between $15,476 & $17,622 for a few days more. To gain the upper hand, bulls will need to push the price above the 50 day simple moving average ($18.122). The pair could then gain momentum and rally to $20,000. ETH/USDTAfter trading below the moving averages for the last few days, Ether(ETH) broke below $11,250 on Dec. 7.

This could put the aggressive bears on a wrong foot and push the price towards the overhead resistance of $338. This level could see a rematch between bulls and bears. XRP/USDTThe bears have successfully defended the 20 day EMA ($0.39) in recent days and pulled XRP(XRP) below its uptrend line on December 7. This invalidates the ascending triangle pattern.
