In the June edition of the Crypto Finance House View, we cover the following topics:
Market Review & Outlook
Bitcoin ETFs have been very successful in the US in 2024 so far, leading to anticipation for Ethereum ETFs following SEC approval of spot Ethereum products. Hedge funds are expected to drive significant ETF flows through cash and carry trades. This strategy involves leveraging futures premiums for near risk-free trades. Despite lower volumes compared to Bitcoin, the outlook for Ethereum ETF flows remains positive, supported by hedge fund interest in yield diversification.

Technical Analysis
BTC, currently trading at USD 68,342, has been consolidating sideways in a range between USD 56,000 and its all-time high of around USD 74,000. The important support level of USD 60,000 was tested at the beginning of May, with two closing prices below it, but prices bounced back into the USD 60,000-74,000 range on 3 May to reinstate our scenario.
We are sticking to our plan, monitoring the new support level at around USD 56,000, and expecting the uptrend to continue once resistance at around USD 74,000 has been broken. Two projections lead to similar levels: the width of the sideways channel added to the all-time high and the projection of the first leg before the consolidation, added to the retracement, define a level of USD 92,000. This scenario will be invalidated on a clear break of USD 56,000.
The long-term RSI model has confirmed its long position. RSI readings are currently at 70.11, well above the trigger level of 53.
The relative strength of ETH vs. BTC moved in favour of ETH this time. The positive acceleration in ETH was mainly driven by the ETFs‘ approval news.
