Bitcoin fell below $22,800 on March 3. On March 5, buyers sought to push the price above the breakdown level, but the extended wick on the candlestick implies bears are attempting to turn $22,800 into resistance. The 20-day exponential moving average ($23,159) is falling and the relative strength index (RSI) is below 44, suggesting bears are seeking to consolidate. Sellers aim to break $21,480 support.

On March 3, EOS $1.22 broke over $1.26, but bulls couldn’t hold it. Positively, the price has not dipped below the 20-day EMA ($1.17).
Bulls benefit from rising moving averages and a good RSI. A break and closure over the $1.26 to $1.34 resistance zone will complete the EOS/USDT rounded bottom pattern. This reversal setup targets $1.74. The 50-day SMA ($1.10) is the key downside support. Since Jan. 8, buyers have not allowed the price to go below this support. A breach below it may escalate selling. $1 and $0.93 provide help.

STX/USDT fell to the 20-day EMA ($0.69), where it found buying support. Bulls will defend the $0.67 50% Fibonacci retracement line, which is nearby. Bears will sell rallies between $0.83 and $0.91. Sellers will attempt another correction if the price falls from this overhead zone. If $0.67 breaks, $0.58 is the 61.8% retracement.
Buyers can push the price above $0.91 to $1.04, contrary to this assumption. Breaking over this level might restart the upswing. $1.43 may follow.
The 20-EMA is trending down and the RSI is negative on the four-hour chart, suggesting bears have a minor advantage. Sellers will defend moving averages during pullbacks. They’ll strive to keep the price down to $0.65 and $0.56. Bulls will fight for this support zone.
A break and closing above the 50-SMA will signal strength. The pair may increase to $0.94 and $1.04. On March 3, ImmutableX (IMX) bounced from the 50-day SMA ($0.88) and closed above the 20-day EMA ($1), showing strong demand at lower levels.
Bears will attempt to stop the comeback at $1.12 if the IMX/USDT pair rises. Buyers might push the pair toward $1.30’s strong overhead resistance. Breaking and closing above this level might initiate a fresh upswing. The duo might reach $1.85. If the price falls below $1.12, the bears may not have given up. Sellers will attempt again to push the pair below the 50-day SMA and grab control. If successful, the pair may fall below $0.63.
The four-hour chart shows price fluctuations between $0.92 and $1.12. In ranges, traders purchase near support and sell near resistance. Price action inside the range may be unpredictable.

Bulls are seeking to push the pair over $832–963. The 20-EMA has risen and the RSI is positive, signaling bullishness. The pair may climb to $1,094 if it stays above $963. If the price falls drastically below $963, the breakthrough may have been a bull trap. That could prolong consolidation.
