Bitcoin price is hovering inside its range for nearly a month now and shows no signs of breaking out any time soon. However, this has not stopped investors from speculating a move higher to fill the CME gaps.
Ethereum and Ripple are both attempting to move higher but are closely correlated to the BTC price action.
Bitcoin price has been trading inside the $28,575 and $31,493 range since May 14. Despite the May 30 attempt to breach the stalemate, BTC fell short of momentum to break out and move higher. Regardless, the big crypto is giving it another go as it retests the range high in an attempt to flip it into a support level.
Doing so will open the path to retest the $34,455 and $35,187 hurdles with a minor hurdle at $32,837. Therefore, investors need to watch closely for a breach of the range high.

If Bitcoin price fails to climb higher and gets rejected by the range high at $31,493, it will dent the optimistic narrative. In such a case, BTC could potentially sweep the range low at $28,575 again.
Ethereum price has been stabilizing around the $1,731 support level for nearly two weeks and shows signs of building steam. As ETH continues to coil up, a potential spike in volatility that pushes Ethereum price to sweep the equal highs at $2,020 seems plausible.
However, in some cases, the Ethereum price could propel higher and collect the liquidity resting above the May 16 swing high at $2,164.

On the other hand, if Ethereum price produces a four-hour candlestick close below $1,700, it will create a lower low and invalidate the bullish thesis.
Ripple price has been producing lower highs since May 13 and the recent swing high on June 8 seems to have done exactly that. As XRP price continues to trade in lockstep with Bitcoin price, this trend is likely going to continue.
While the short-term target is $0.455, the recent sell-off in BTC has caused the XRP price to follow suit. As a result, investors need to be patient and re-evaluate as Ripple price slides lower to tag the $0.371 support level.

While things are looking up for Ripple price, a breakdown of the $0.371 support barrier will invalidate the bullish thesis. Such a development could further lead to a 7% crash to $0.345.
