Bitcoin
Since Oct. 14, Bitcoin fell 2.6% to trade at $19,278 as of press time. Its market dominance fell slightly to 40% over the reporting period.
A sharp sell-off triggered by hotter-than-expected CPI inflation data on Oct. 13 led to a strong recovery that topped out at $19.960 on Friday at 02:30 (UTC).
The ensuing drawdown found support at around $19,000, with the weekend price action grinding along this zone until Sunday evening (UTC), when a 1% upside swing occurred. This was soon sent tumbling to previous support as bears took control.

Ethereum strongly mirrored Bitcoin, including the CPI inflation recovery on Friday morning (UTC). ETH price action topped out at $1,344 on Friday afternoon.
The subsequent drawdown bottomed at $1,263 on Oct. 16 at 00:00 (UTC). Like BTC, ETH saw a sharp uptick of 1.6%. However, bears knocked the gain down, with price action forming a V-shaped pattern on the 15-minute chart.
