Market leaders Bitcoin and עטהערעום are currently trading in a consolidation phase, with the latter managing to reclaim some lost ground. Meanwhile, DOT and DOT were among the few gainers in the top-ten altcoins. Also, the stablecoins USDC, USDT, and BUSD have shown some price appreciation.
The general market sentiments are positive, but a lot of bearish pressure is still looming large. The crypto sell-off seen on the 27th of August saw most of the cryptocurrencies lose a large chunk of their value. However, some coins have been recovering and currently are in a consolidation before the next move. For instance, ADA, DOGE, and פּאָלקאַדאָט are a few of the top-ten crypto assets that have posted gains in the last 24 hours.
The market has been struggling to gain some traction ever since. However, the recent bullish price action in Bitcoin might just be what the market needs for a relief rally.
The best crypto performers of the week are Filecoin which has gained 12.25 percent followed by Axie Infinity which has gained 8.96 percent. The losers of the week are 1inch Network and Lido DAO which have declined by 5.81 and 5.31 percent respectively.

On the 4-hour chart, we can see that BTC has formed a descending triangle pattern. The pattern is a bearish reversal pattern and is usually seen at the end of an uptrend.

The MACD indicator is currently in the bearish territory and is decreasing. The RSI indicator, on the other hand, is close to the oversold levels and might see a reversal soon.
If the price breaks out of the descending triangle pattern to the downside, the next level of support will be found at $18,600. The breakout to the upside, on the other hand, biggest crypto might see the price rally towards the $21,000 level.
