Josh from Crypto World pointed out that Bitcoin and Ethereum are on the verge of confirming a major breakout on larger time frames. However, a new warning signal on smaller time frames for Bitcoin indicates a potential shift in price patterns.

Short-term indicators like RSI and MACD suggest a slight loss in bullish momentum but remain overall bullish.

On Ethereum, Josh highlighted a bullish trend on the weekly timeframe, aiming for a breakout above $2,700. Ethereum’s current pullback could test support levels around $2,680-$2,720.
