Top 3 Price Prediction Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple: Bears get ahead but are not leading

• Sellers show more strength than buyers but with no advantage in controlling the market.
• Market sentiment remains upbeat and diverges from the technical structure.
• Ripple quickens the consolidation process and shows the way ahead.

The week is coming to an end, and on Friday, we are seeing some modest rises by the primary crypto board protectors. 

Ethereum is the best Top 3 member at this time and recovers some of the ground lost to Bitcoin in recent weeks. The current climb does not seem to be able to finish the consolidation movement, and we should still wait a couple of weeks to see new developments.

The market forces are facing each other, but neither side opens fire in the technical confrontation that – according to all indications – should take place soon. 

The downward movement is in full swing, and the bulls are less and less likely to turn the downward trend around.

The market sentiment is now at level 74 and shows a very high level of confidence in which the uptrend will continue without pause. The long term graph of the sentiment level shows a zone of congestion that typically leads to a sharp drop in the confidence level.
