BNB will resume a fresh uptrend if the current support above the EMA holds. On the upside, a break above the $17.50 will propel the price to break  $18 overhead resistance. BNB will rally to $22 high if the $18 overhead resistance is breached. However, the overhead resistance has not been broken since April. The coin is presently above 80% range of the daily stochastic. It indicates that the coin is overbought and sellers will emerge to push prices down.

ETC/USD Major Trend: Bullish

Ethereum Classic (ETC) is in an upward move as the market reaches a high of $6.80. A Doji candlestick appears after the recent uptrend. This candlestick indicates that buyers are unable to push prices higher as sellers emerge to push prices back to the opening price.

Maker (MKR) has been in a sideways trend for a long period. Buyers have not been able to break the overhead resistance at $700. Each time the overhead resistance is retested the market will encounter a bearish reaction.
