A widely followed crypto analyst is breaking down his predictions for Ethereum (ETH<\/a>) and a handful of popular altcoins.<\/p>\n The pseudonymous crypto analyst Cheds says in a new interview with Scott Melker that ETH has a \u201cclean trigger level\u201d around $1,420-$1,430, the price point it will have cleared both the prior support level and the 200-day moving average (MA).<\/p>\n ETH is trading at $1,252 at time of writing.<\/p>\n Cheds also notes that XRP<\/a> is at a critical price point right now.<\/p>\n \u201cYou need follow-through. It\u2019s like the beginning. And so if the bulls don\u2019t bounce here [at $0.3416], that\u2019s no bueno. That\u2019s a great start to some type of a small-to-medium-type of a move. Maybe up to like $0.38 to $0.39. And if it doesn\u2019t, then you\u2019re in real trouble, because look at the long lower shadow. That\u2019s buyers jumping in, rejecting lower prices, getting back up above lost support.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n XRP is changing hands at $0.346 at time of writing.<\/p>\n Cheds also says top memecoin Dogecoin (DOGE<\/a>) is not looking good.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s the classic rocket ship slow bleed. Losing the MA-200, losing support here. I mean I think it\u2019s going to about [$0.05] or [$0.057, $0.058]. Probably range lows.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n DOGE is trading at $0.072 at time of writing.<\/p>\n The trader says he doesn\u2019t have any immediate plans to do anything with Ethereum rival Cardano (ADA<\/a>). He says it might be interesting to short it if ADA reaches the $0.30 range again. Cardano is currently trading at $0.266.<\/p>\n As for Solana (SOL<\/a>), Cheds says that \u201cthe biggest bounces come in downtrends.\u201d The analyst says he feels \u201cconstructive\u201d on the asset above $11-$11.50. SOL is trading at $13.57 at time of writing.<\/p>\n Cheds says blockchain scaling solution Polygon (MATIC<\/a>) needs to hold support \u201cin order to build the chart and stairstep.\u201d An important holding level for the asset is at $0.72, and the next potential level up to watch out for is around $1.06, according to the analyst.<\/p>\n MATIC is changing hands at $0.802 at time of writing.<\/p>\n
