Bitcoin rally lifts September crypto market as alts trail
Bitcoin’s (CRYPTO:BTC) climb toward $115,000 has been enough to put the crypto market in positive territory for September.

Bitcoin trades just above $114,400, while Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH) has risen 1% to around $4,200.

Analysts note Bitcoin increasingly behaves like digital gold in times of stress, while altcoins are sold off.
The Altcoin Season Index dropped from 77 to 58, showing a trader preference for Bitcoin or cash.
Bitcoin maintains a bullish golden cross setup, with its 50-day EMA above the 200-day line.

The ADX reading at 18 signals a lack of strong trend, leaving Bitcoin open to macro shocks.
RSI at 50 reflects a balanced market as traders wait for clearer signals.
Prediction market Myriad shows 74% expect short-term red candles for Bitcoin.

Key Bitcoin levels: support at $109K and $106K, resistance at $116K and $120K.
Cardano (CRYPTO:ADA) trades around $0.80 with long-term structure intact but short-term pressure building.

Key ADA levels: support at $0.75, resistance at $0.81 and $0.85.
Dogecoin (CRYPTO:DOGE) dropped 3.3% to $0.227, testing key channel support.
