ETHETH has been rapidly moving upwards since April 23. However, it’s potentially approaching a local top.
Currently, it appears to be in sub-wave five (orange) of wave five (white). Therefore, it’s likely that the upward movement that began in March 2020 will be coming to an end.
There is a confluence of Fib resistance levels between $4,585 and $4,710, making it a likely area for the top to be reached.
This target area is found by using Fib projections on the cycle waves (white) and minor sub-waves (black) 1-3, and an external retracement on wave four.
If the movement extends, the next most likely target would be found at $5,171, though this is less likely to occur.

XRPSimilar to ETH, XRP has been moving upwards since April 23. It’s likely that it has begun sub-wave five (orange) of a bullish impulse.
