The Bitcoin futures price of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), the most actively traded November contract, fell by $390 to $72,950, and the December contract fell by $340 to $73,525.

Ethereum futures prices rose by $41.50 for November to trade at $2699.50, and for December contracts rose by $40.50 to trade at $2718.00.

As the price of Bitcoin attempts to hit an all-time high, several indicators and data show that the cryptocurrency’s upward trend will continue, according to Cointelegraph.

Veteran trader Peter Brant suggested Bitcoin’s target price range in the range of $85,000 to $160,000. Bitcoin broke through the selling wall between $65,000 and $71,000, liquidating the positions of short traders.

Cryptocurrency analyst Alan Santana argued that “Ethereum offers a higher risk-to-risk return opportunity than Bitcoin.”

He pointed out that the price of Ethereum must overcome the resistance range between $2,800 and $2,900 in the short term to nullify the possibility of a decline.

He also added that if the price of Ethereum exceeds $2,800 in the coming weeks, the next target will be an all-time high near $5,000.
