Trading volume rose nearly 9% over the last 24 hours. **Ethereum** followed a similar path, spiking to an intraday high of $1,960 only to reverse sharply and retreat lower. Over $200 million was liquidated from the cryptocurrency market in the last 24 hours, with $160 million in bearish short positions erased, according to Coinglass data. Bitcoin’s open interest fell 1.75% over the last 24 hours. A decrease in open interest alongside an increase in spot price typically indicates short covering, signaling that short sellers are buying back contracts to exit positions. That said, "Fear" sentiment prevailed in the market, according to the Crypto Fear & Greed Index. **Top Gainers (24 Hours)**  **Cryptocurrency (Market Cap\>$100 M)** **Gains +/-** **Price (Recorded at 9:30 p.m. EDT)** **Unibase** (UB)       +22.23%     $0.1498 **SOON** (SOON)                    +17.35%     $0.1969 **KAITO** (KAITO)               +15.42%     $1.18 The global cryptocurrency market capitalization stood at $2.22 trillion, following a contraction of 0.54% over the last 24 hours. **Read Also: Top Three Crypto Tokens to Watch This Week: Pi Network, Worldcoin, Bitcoin** ## **Stock Futures Surge Amid Pause in Fighting** Stock futures rallied overnight on Sunday.

The indicator uses multiple-layered moving averages plotted in different colors to spot market trends and find reversal points. “Price was at $16,900 when the cross happened. Weeks later, bull run had begun,” Olson stated. “Few months to go, buy the right dip.” > $BTC bottom signal. > > Orange line crossed the purple line on our Rainbow MA indicator Dec 2022, signaling amazing time to buy. > > Price was at $16,900 when the cross happened.
