This issue covers Render Network (RNDR), The Open Network (TONCOIN), Arbitrum (ARB), and TRON (TRX).

Last week, the title was Dead Cat Bounce, which is how the crypto market has turned out. The Bitcoin chart has recovered some ground, but it remains a limp effort against high expecations. Not only is the trend score down to 1, but the short-term moving average has crossed below the long-term (200-day) moving average, which can lead to a downtrend… but it doesn’t have to.

Then the ByteTree Crypto Average, our breadth measure, is slack, meaning the average token is still under pressure. Crypto performance tends to be an all-or-nothing affair, and the breadth has been deteriorating since March.

Few tokens are showing stand-out performance and we patiently await the good times to return. This week, we go a step further and reduce altcoin exposure in favour of Bitcoin. I do not know how long this will last, but we shall remain in defensive positioning until things improve.
