Coin Base Jumps 14 Percent On October 13
BTCUSD has been up 3% in the last three days, and ETHUSD gained 4%. We are far from a trend reversal in cryptocurrency, but every time Bitcoin breaks the $20k resistance, there is a chance it could extend the run. At the moment, BTCUSD is around $19,700 on SimpleFX.
Crypto-related stocks are a great target when Bitcoin is on the run. Coinbase gained 14% between 12 and 14th October.
