The main weekly resistance is at USD 20,000, above which the price could continue to rise.
On the downside, an initial support is near the USD 19,000 level. The next major support is near the USD 18,800 zone, below which the price could start a stronger decline.

Ethereum price attempted a recovery wave but failed to surpass USD 1,100. ETH moved lower and retested the USD 1,000 support.

ADA, BNB, SOL, DOGE, and XRP price
Cardano (ADA) failed to clear the USD 0.48 and USD 0.50 resistance levels. The price is now trading below USD 0.45 and might continue to move down towards the USD 0.42 support zone.
BNB is trading well below the USD 225 pivot level and is struggling to stay above the USD 212 support zone. A clear move below the USD 212 level may perhaps call for a test of the USD 200 zone.
Solana (SOL) failed to settle above the USD 35 level and trimmed gains. There was a test of the USD 32 support zone. Any more losses might call for a test of the USD 30 level.
DOGE is stable above the USD 0.065 support zone. An immediate resistance is near USD 0.068, above which the price could rise towards USD 0.072. The next major resistance is at USD 0.075.
