On October 27, 2025, the cryptocurrency market showed notable growth following the announcement of an interim trade agreement between the United States and China. Bitcoin surged to $116,000, while Ethereum climbed above $4,100.
Analysts from Cryptology Key have evaluated the current market conditions for Bitcoin and altcoins and provided insights into potential price movements.
Bitcoin (BTC)
The monthly chart shows little change, with the price closing above its all-time high (ATH), triggering a market reaction. There is an open Fair Value Gap (FVG) between $95,770 and $98,115 per BTC. Ideally, a retest of this zone would support the continuation of the upward trend. Localized support zones on lower timeframes may also hold the price.
On the weekly chart, BTC is positioned in a short FVG, which could act as a resistance zone before potentially moving down to the long-interest areas marked on the chart. This represents a test of the FVG and a liquidity grab in preparation for the next upward move.
The daily chart shows BTC in a short area within a Balanced Price Range (BPR), interacting with key buyer-side liquidity (BSL). A long-interest FVG has formed, but invalidation is possible. Traders may either look for entry points or wait for a retest to attempt another high and then consider a short position.
On the 4-hour chart, BTC may either invert the short FVG for a long expansion or begin forming a long model. If no clear pattern emerges, the price could start a liquidity-based entry scenario.
The hourly chart will be useful if it shows a clear reaction or model; otherwise, attention shifts to lower liquidity zones.
Ethereum (ETH)
The monthly chart shows minimal change. After testing the ATH, ETH retraced impulsively, but a retest of the monthly FVG between $2,879 and $3,353 remains possible.
On the weekly chart, equal lows before the monthly interest zone suggest potential support. The price is currently within a short block, which could trigger a downward reaction.
The daily chart indicates ETH is in a long FVG, which may drive a move to retest the $4,293 high. Monitoring subsequent price behavior is crucial—if a short model forms, liquidity below the current level becomes relevant.
On the 4-hour chart, ETH reacted to a FVG but immediately encountered a short-interest zone. Traders may need to wait for a pullback to find a long model or confirm an inversion of the short zone.
The hourly chart shows price reactions to an order block (OB). Decisions will depend on how the short FVG resolves, so patience is advised.
Dash (DASH)
The weekly chart shows an impulsive move leaving a tradeable range. Analysts recommend observing reactions and seeking models for continued upward movement. Testing the weekly FVG is also noted, though it is at a much lower level.
On the daily chart, a clear interest zone suggests opportunities for long entries. Lower timeframes should be used to identify entry models.
Two potential scenarios exist: inverting the short FVG to search for long entries, or testing the daily FVG more deeply before pursuing long positions toward new highs.
The 4-hour and hourly charts can be used to confirm models and liquidity sweeps before entering positions.
TAO
Following an ATL update, TAO showed an impulsive reversal, appearing stronger than other assets. It reclaimed its range and remains above year-over-year support.
The daily chart features a long FVG that has already been tested, forming a daily inversion. A pullback could present an opportunity to add positions.
On the 4-hour chart, waiting for a retracement to the FVG zone is suggested before looking for entry models. If no reaction occurs, liquidity sweeps will guide trading decisions.
Hourly analysis shows potential range plays, which could clarify how to approach positions.
Overall, Cryptology Key emphasizes monitoring FVGs, liquidity zones, and intraday patterns across timeframes to navigate BTC, ETH, DASH, and TAO. Traders should wait for confirmations and retests rather than rushing entries, especially in reaction to macro events such as the US–China trade developments.
