Bitcoin 4H Chart Bitcoin 4H Chart, August 4, 2025 – Source: TradingView This weekend marked some touches to the $112,000 level serving as main support, which triggered some small buying. Momentum is stalling a tidbit as the middle level of the downward ATH descending channel is approaching. Traders will need to be watchful for the reactions at the current level: Rejecting here shows a more bearish outlook (as prices would fail to breach the midline, a typical sign of buyer exhaustion), while consolidating here/breaking above would point to a test of the higher bounds of the channel around $118,500. Levels to place on your charts: Support Levels: Lower bound of descending channel $113,200 Previous ATH support: $110,000 to $112,000 $100,000 major support Resistance Levels: $116,000 to 117,000 pivot (confluence with 4H MA 50) $120,000 resistance (+/- $300) Current ATH resistance: $121,000 to $123,000 Ethereum 4H Chart Ethereum 4H Chart, August 4, 2025 – Source: TradingView Ethereum has rallied strongly in the session, up at one point 4.30%.
