Silver Price: XAGUSD Reverses From Daily Highs, As Further Weakness Stays in Focus

XAGUSD Price Analysis – April 25

After failing to consolidate the prior week’s high at $26.30, Silver (XAG) has dropped back towards the $26.00 level with Friday’s close of $25.85 level. A sharp rise in US Treasury bond yields appears to be putting pressure on the white metal. From the last session, the benchmark 10-year US T-bond yield stays at 1.567 percent, up nearly 2%.

Key Levels
Resistance Levels: $28.90, $27.50, $26.64
Support Levels: $25.50, $24.50, $23.50
XAGUSD-Daily-April-25.pngXAGUSD Long term Trend: Ranging
With prices consolidating beneath the $26.65 resistance zone, XAGUSD has held a tight grip near the moving average of 5. The resistance level near $26.64 remains within reach on the upside. However, only a good close above the prior day’s high at the $26.40 level can signal additional gains.

In the white metal, the pair may open with a downside bias. If Silver loses the $26.00 round number, we foresee a drop to the $25.00 support band during the new week. The relative strength index is almost at its midpoint, which may indicate a weakness in price near the $26.00 support mark.
XAGUSD-4-Hour-April-25.pngXAGUSD Short term Trend: Ranging
The XAGUSD price is expected to trade sideways in the near term before it flips moving averages 13 into support, which is located above the $26.00 mark. Bears would set their sights on $25.50 as an immediate target, with a breach risking a move towards a $25.00 support band.

Bearish short-term analysis and negative sentiment aid bears, who are ignoring the recent bounce from $23.78 Mar.31 low for the time being, although some price adjustment may be anticipated. Downticks beneath key support are expected to provide better opportunities to re-join the bearish market in the coming session.

USDCHF Buyers Smash Through Daily Resistance of 0.9150 on Wide Range Strengthening of US Dollar

USDCHF Price Analysis – May 4

During the European session, the USDCHF brings the buyers’ interest to the test, with the possibility of a recovery from the downside pressure to crack the sellers’ grasp. As technicals reveal a dominant selling side, buyers smashed through the barrier at 0.9150. The dollar is being boosted by expectations of stronger economic growth in the United States.

Key Levels
Resistance Levels: 0.9472, 0.9300, 0.9160
Support Levels: 0.9080, 0.9045, 0.8998
USDCHF-Daily-May-4.pngUSDCHF Long term Trend: Ranging
The US dollar remains bullish against the Swiss franc at the beginning of the week, as the pair’s intra-day correction finds buyers at 0.9110 level, up from 0.9104. In a broader sense, the drop from 0.9472 medium-term high is considered the 2nd pattern period since the plunge from a recent high of 0.9901.

For the time being, there is no sign that the range will be completed. In continuation, the next goal will be a 138.2 percent projection from 0.9901 to 0.8757 from 0.9472 at 0.9080 levels. A successful break of the 0.9200 resistance level, however, will be an early sign of trend reversal and a change of focus back to the 0.9300 key resistance level for confirmation.
USDCHF-4-Hour-May-4.pngUSDCHF Short term Trend: Bearish
The short-term risk in the USDCHF market appears to be seeking to retain its downside in the 4-hour time frame, in addition, trend signals remain mixed for now, indicating that any price strength may be transitory.

Overall, the outlook for USDCHF remains unchanged, and the intraday bias is initially neutral. The trading range starting at 0.9472 is widening. In the event of a steeper fall, the 38.2 percent retracement of 0.9080 to 0.9160 levels at 0.9127 could absorb the downside step and usher in a stronger recovery.

XAGUSD Boosts Gains From Weekly Lows, Further Advances Likely

XAGUSD Price Analysis – May 16

At the end of the prior session, the white metal turned positive away from weekly lows of $26.72 and shot to two-day highs, around $27.48 level. XAGUSD trend appears to be stacked in favor of buyers, implying that further advances are likely. Following worse-than-expected US results, the dollar fell on Friday.

Key Levels
Resistance Levels: $30.13, $28.90, $27.92
Support Levels: $26.72, $25.50, $24.50
XAGUSD-Daily-May-16.pngXAGUSD Long term Trend: Ranging
In terms of the technical context, the XAGUSD has been trending higher along an upward sloping moving average (MA 13) extending from Apr.13 lows around the $25.00 level. The recent pullback from the $30.13 yearly high stalled near the ascending trendline. The low around the daily ascending trendline at $23.78 could provide immediate support in the event of an unexpected decline.

Any further upward movement from current levels may face fierce opposition near the immediate horizontal level at $27.50. A valid breach beyond the $28.00 mark will drive the XAGUSD past the upside channel hurdle near the $28.32 supply zone, pressuring the prior tops. A steady step towards the February 1 highs may be possible if it breaks above the $27.50 mark.
XAGUSD-4-Hour-May-16.pngXAGUSD Short term Trend: Ranging
Silver appears to be launching toward a significant technical barrier at the $27.50 mark, as seen on the 4-hour chart. If the barrier holds, XAGUSD is likely to find support near the $26.72 level thanks to a 4 hour moving average of 13 which seems to be a return to expand gains against the US Dollar in the short term.

The upside range between $28.00 and $30.00 may be a potential upside target; in the meantime, bears are unlikely to win the market. A sustained break below, on the other hand, can be seen as the first signs of bullish fatigue, putting the pair at risk of testing the $25.00 region.

Is Dogecoin (DOGE) a good long-term investment?

You can still make money on Dogecoin in 2021!
As this article is being written, DOGE has gained close to 80,000% since its creation, despite the recent large pullback in the market. Price is bound to recover from here as the market moves higher.

You can make money from Dogecoin this year. Many investors have made money lots of money from that coin since it was created and many more will make money this year, even if they are newcomers.

For most of 2021, the overall bias on DOGEUSD is bullish, and while there would be large or minor pullbacks along the way, the market would quickly or slowly recover. Price might reach 1.00 USD and possibly reach 1.5 USD before the end of this year.

There are active crypto traders who make money from DOGEUSD by buying it when the RSI period 14 reaches the oversold region of less than level 30. They also sell the coin when it reaches the overbought territory of the RSI 14 level 70 on the daily chart, raking in huge gains as they ride DOGE price southwards.

Also, investors who buy the current pullback and hold till the end of December 2021, will have nice profits to show for their patience.

At the end of 2021, I would dump Dogecoin completely and convert the gains on it to cash or a stablecoin.
doge-6249264__340.pngBut I won’t hold Dogecoin (DOGE) for the long-term
Most cryptocurrencies are scams because they do not serve unique purposes or solve unique problems. Even certain cryptos that are believed to solve real problems have disappointed investors.

A number of coins which used to be household names and very promising some years ago have now become almost worthless. Some coins/tokens made money years ago, and they lost more than 90% of their value and have not recovered anything since then, even though cryptos generally went upwards in 2020 and 2021.

I will give examples of these coins in another article.

Some experts once thought that coins in the top 50 or the top 100 were to be trusted. Nonetheless, in the last 14 months, a considerable amount of coins got pushed out of the topmost 100; and while certain coins did not get pushed out too far, some coins got pushed too far, even close to the topmost 1000.
elon-musk-6222396__340.jpgWhy Dogecoin (DOGE) is not a good long-term investment
But why?

There is no way you can liken DOGE to ADA or ETH. There are huge differences. You can never compare DOGE to BTC. Yes, if one is a gem, the other is paper.

For instance, while BTC has limited/maximum supply by design, about 10,000 units of Dogecoin are created per minute. If Dogecoin reaches the resistance line at $1.00, its total value would be in the region of $129 billion, which will make it the number 3 crypto coin in the word in terms of market cap.

I quote a veteran, professional coach for traders and investors:

“..I personally think that DOGE is probably one of the worst cryptos even though it is currently ranked #5 in market cap. It was formed as a joke, so at least it’s not a Ponzi scheme. DOGE is based upon a meme and has no reason to have any value except that young people think it’s real and important. If you talk to most people in their 20s, DOGE is the only crypto they own because it’s all over social media.

Elon Musk might be brilliant at owning tech companies but he certainly isn’t an authority on investing in other people’s companies. He’s been talking and joking about DOGE lately but I recently learned that he has been working with the DOGE developers since 2019. Could that be more joking? Either way, I don’t trust people who get sued (repeatedly) for tweets that impact the price of their company’s stock (Tesla). Tesla stopped accepting BTC as payment for their cars. It will still keep its large BTC investment even though it burns a lot of electricity. Musk is accepting DOGE payment for his space X project but DOGE is also a proof of work coin that burns a lot of energy too…” – Van K. Tharp, PhD

Please let the fact above sink in.
graph-3078539_960_720.pngI also quote Sir John Hargrave of Bitcoin Market Journal:

“What are you buying? You’re buying a joke currency that depreciates in value (10,000 new units of dogecoin minted every minute). It already has a higher market cap than Polkadot, Cardano, and Algorand, which are actual blockchain platforms where people build things. If it gets to $1.00, it will surpass Binance coin, which powers the largest crypto exchange in the world.

To me, it’s clear that Dogecoin is a bubble, fueled by the same kind of meme mania that has driven up GameStop stock. It’s not really an investment, it’s a gamble, and I hate gambling. So I wouldn’t touch Dogecoin with a 10-foot leash, simply because of the tokenomics…”

Dogecoin to collapse in 2022
Dogecoin is doomed to become worthless in the future, starting somewhere in 2022, and investors who don’t cash out by the end of this year will deeply regret it.

To hold coins for a long period of time, do not bet your sweat on tokens that serve no real purposes other people’s fantasies. It is better to stick to cryptocurrencies that have stood the test of time.

Ripple vs. SEC: SEC Requests for the Deposition of Five Witnesses

In the ongoing SEC vs. Ripple (XRP) case, the Commission is now requesting that Judge Sarah Netburn depose five more witnesses, including former Ripple CFO Ron Will and former Xpring senior vice president Ethan Beard.

The Securities and Exchange Commission asserts that its increase in deposition requests spurs from the new development of evidence and “the sheer scale of Ripple’s unlawful XRP offering.”

Currently, ten active and former Ripple employees are to testify on several matters. The SEC is also making efforts to strong-arm Ripple into producing documents relating to its lobbying efforts.

In June 2020, Chris Giancarlo, a former chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, publicly asserted that XRP was not unregistered security. However, the SEC argued that Giancarlo was on Ripple’s payroll, noting that:

“Ripple relies on statements that it paid that official to make to support its litigation position…Since Ripple has put at issue its purported lack of ‘fair notice’ based on the beliefs of market participants, the SEC is entitled to test whether the supposed ‘confusion’ was bought and paid for by Ripple, as opposed to a reflection of genuine market sentiment.”

Additionally, the agency has requested access to the documents of five other custodians to obtain “all relevant internal and external documents.”

Key Ripple (XRP) Levels to Watch — May 26

After suffering a massive plunge below the $0.7000 level, Ripple appears to have regained bullish traction as the crypto market recovers from its recent crash. The seventh-largest cryptocurrency currently trades around the $1.0600 level, as it trades along a bullish trendline.

ZhepkRUF.jpeg XRPUSD – Hourly Chart

The immediate target for bulls is the $1.2700 resistance followed by the $1.5000 level. That said, any declines from the current price should find healthy support from the $1.0000 psychological support level.

Meanwhile, our resistance levels are $1.5000, $1.5500, and $1.6000, and our support levels are $1.4000, $1.3500, and $1.3000.

EURUSD Indecisive Market Lacks Follow-Through Buying

EURUSD Price Analysis – May 24

The EURUSD is stuck between February’s high of 1.2243 and a long-term restricting horizontal barrier line, which if broken would open the way to the top of a larger uptrend that began in March 2020. The EURUSD indecisive market lacks follow-through buying beyond 1.2245 barriers. Overall, the safe-haven USD gains were limited by the risk-on mood, which helped limit the downside.

Key Levels
Resistance Levels: 1.2414, 1.2350, 1.2245
Support Levels: 1.2150, 1.2100, 1.2050
EURUSD_Daily_May_24.jpegEURUSD Long term Trend: Ranging
On Monday, the EURUSD pair saw some buying in the initial half of the European trading session, up from 1.2171 with about 50 pips from the lows set earlier at the weeks open. The RSI has been unable to restart upward movement in recent days, while the price trades around the 5 and 13 moving averages, raising the chances of a near-term downside correction.

In the near term, however, an ascending trendline has been shielding the market from rapid downside moves. As a result, the bears must successfully break this through to encourage more aggressive selling toward the 1.2050 swings low of Mar. 13, 2021, where the medium support is located on the daily chart.
EURUSD_4_Hour_May_24.jpegEURUSD Short term Trend: Ranging
As seen on the 4-hour chart, with 1.2050 support intact, the EURUSD has a neutral intraday bias and is expected to consolidate. A break of 1.2245 on the upside will restart the rise from 1.1704 to retest the 1.2350 high. The bullish case will be delayed if 1.2050 is broken.

The intraday bias will be shifted to the downside to expand the consolidation trend that began at 1.2350 with another dropping leg. In summary, in the short term, the EURUSD has a diminishing bullish bias. A close below 1.2150 could confirm more losses, while a close above 1.2245 could seek to reintroduce the previous uptrend.

As a result of the buying interest around the $27.22 level, negative momentum has strengthened significantly. If buyers can push the price above the cloud and the resistance zone that has formed between $28.00 and $28.32, the price might swiftly test the nearby high of $28.90.

On the downside, first support might come from the $27.50-$27.00 range, and a conclusive violation of this long-term support zone could send the price crashing into the $26.72 and $26.00 lows, respectively. If the price follows the pattern, the metal’s bullish bias may be weakened, and bears may reclaim the lead.
XAGUSD_4_Hour_June_6.jpegXAGUSD Short term Trend: Ranging
Silver appears to be heading at a technical hurdle at the $28.00 level, as seen on the 4-hour chart. If the barrier holds, XAGUSD is anticipated to find support near the $27.50 level, thanks to a 4-hour moving average of 5, and return to extend gains against the US Dollar in the short term.

The upside range between $28.00 and $28.90 might be a viable upside target; in the meantime, bears are unlikely to win the market. A persistent break below, on the other hand, will be considered as the first symptoms of bullish tiredness, putting the pair at risk of testing the important $26.72 level.

Cardano Market Analysis: Market Rebounds as Bitcoin Surges

Cardano (ADA) is up by over 11% over the past 24 hours and currently trades at $1.5800 in the mid-Monday session. This bull run is the largest one so far since the start of June.

The recent market rally pushed Cardano’s market cap above the $49 billion price point. Regardless the market cap is still miles away from its highest point of $71.5 billion set in May. Also, the cryptocurrency trades down by -36.2% from its all-time high of $2.46 set on May 16.

Meanwhile, despite the current bull market, Cardano is still down by over 8% over the past seven days. At press time, the fifth-largest cryptocurrency has a 24-hour volume of $2.60 billion, which represents 2.63% of the total trading volume in the crypto market.

In other news, Bitcoin (BTC) has cleared the $40k barrier and is up by 13.6% over the past 24 hours, following a goodish tweet from Elon Musk. This surge in BTC is responsible for the broader bullish sentiment seen in the market today.

Bitcoin currently has a market cap of $750 billion and commands 44% of the total market capitalization.

Ethereum has also regained bullish momentum and is up by 9.4% over the past 24 hours, with a market cap of $290 billion, and dominates 17% of the total market capitalization.

Key Cardano Levels to Watch — June 14

Cardano posted a healthy rebound from the $1.4000 support yesterday thanks to the broader bullish sentiment in the market and reached a high of $1.5813. However, the cryptocurrency fell, once again, to the $1.5000 area, where dip-buyers took charge and sent ADA to a new daily high at $1.5856.

c88GCTjw.jpeg ADAUSD – Hourly Chart

That said, we expect to see a bullish continuation over the coming hours and days to the $1.7000 resistance and higher points. Bearish moves from its current price point should get support from the $1.5467 support line, where our 200 SMA resides.

Meanwhile, our resistance levels are $1.7000, $1.8300, and $1.9500, and our support levels are $1.5000, $1.4000, and $1.3108.

Total Market Capitalization: $1.73 trillion

Bitcoin Hashrate Crisis: Correlation Between BTC Price and Hashrate

Since its creation in 2009, the Bitcoin meteoric price rally remains a controversial topic across mainstream media. While many publications disregard BTC as a highly volatile asset and label its price action random, some data sets assert that the price movements get influenced by well-known metrics.

According to data from Blockchain.com, a Reddit post, which superimposed BTC price history to identify trends, noted that there exists an uncanny correlation between Bitcoin’s hashrate and its price action.

Based on the chart, BTC prices typically “revert-to-the-mean” of hashrate data, with eleven clear instances of correlating with logarithmically calculated hashrate values. Using this metric for retail trading, the observations prove useful as buying BTC after the price crosses above the hashrate value results in a massive bull wave in four instances, followed by a gradual descent.

This correlation highlights BTC’s price action as anything but random, as many speculators and analysts like to state. Additionally, transaction values, price activity, technical analysis, and fundamental factors all influence the price action of BTC, much like traditional financial markets.

Hashrate and Its Relevance to the Bitcoin Network

For newbies, hashrate refers to the “buying power” of the Bitcoin network. It refers to the total combined computational power getting used at any particular moment to mine and process transactions on the Bitcoin network. Hashrate gets measured in units of hash/second, which represents the number of calculations the network processes every second.

A higher hashrate typically means more miners are on board, translating to better security for the network. Higher hashing rates safeguard a network against 51 percent attacks.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s hashrate is currently at its lowest point since November 2020, following ramped-up activities by the Chinese government to wean the country of decentralized cryptocurrency activities in general. According to Bitinfocharts, Bitcoin hashrate is down at 91.2 exahash per second (EH/s), a 46.7% drop from its six-week high at 171.4 EH/s.

The analytics firm also revealed that BTC mining profitability has dropped from its peak of $0.449 per day per terahash per second to $0.226.

shutterstock_705855511-scaled.jpg

Hashrate Drop Triggers Bitcoin Crash

Not surprisingly, the recent drop in hashrate has dealt a devastating blow to the price of BTC. At press time, the benchmark cryptocurrency trades at the $30,000 mark (-5% today).

That said, speculators expect displaced miners in China to find their way to other BTC mining hubs, especially Texas in North America. This movement is the most significant miners’ migration in Bitcoin history.

Once miners settle back into their previous rhythm, we can expect to see Bitcoin rise back to its recent highs.

EURJPY Extends Bounce As Further Gains Lie Above 132.00 Level

EURJPY Price Analysis – June 25

EURJPY gathers buying to 132.45, attempting to cross over the mid-132.00 threshold. During the early Friday recovery moves, the pair is up 0.10 percent intraday, increasing for the fourth session in a row.

Key Levels
Resistance Levels: 133.50, 133.00, 132.50
Support Levels: 13200, 131.50, 131.00
EURJPY_Daily_June_25.jpegEURJPY Long term Trend: Ranging
The EURJPY continues to move north, slowly reaching the 132.69 weekly high level. The pair is currently up 0.10 percent at 132.30, and a breakthrough in the sub 133.00 zone will take the pair to 133.50, putting it on track to set new highs.

Initial support, on the other hand, is around 131.50, followed by the 130.04 weekly low and ultimately the 129.02 low. In the meantime, the rise from 121.61 is considered as a medium-term phase of growth inside a long-term consolidation trend. As long as the support level of 129.02 remains unchanged, a steady gain is likely.
EURJPY_4_Hour_June_25.jpegEURJPY Short term Trend: Ranging
EURJPY is still trading in a range of around 132.27, with an initial positive intraday bias. On the 4-hour time frame, however, a steeper correction is brewing, but the trend may remain bullish as long as the 130.04 support level holds. On the other hand, a continuing breach of the 132.50 medium level might confirm a short-term uptrend and lead to a 100 percent forecast of 130.04 to 132.69 from 132.00 at 133.50 levels shortly.

In the short term, the EURJPY remains vulnerable to an upward bias, therefore a break below the support level of 132.00 might lead to weakening into the 131.50/131.00 support zone. On the other hand, resistance can be seen near the price level of 133.00. The pair may keep moving forward.

XAGUSD: Silver Price Is Holding Up Beyond Mid $26.00 Level

XAGUSD Price Analysis – July 4

The Silver (XAG) sellers were unable to keep their price below the $25.00 level and began a new surge versus the US Dollar. The XAGUSD pair has moved into a positive zone after breaking through the mid $26.00 level. Silver is holding up while the dollar fell on Friday as risk appetite increased.

Key Levels
Resistance Levels: $28.00, $27.50, $27.00
Support Levels: $26.00, $25.50, $25.00
XAUSD_Daily_July_7.jpegXAGUSD Long term Trend: Ranging
The moving average 5 of silver (XAGUSD), which is currently working as support at $26.00, has served as a solid basis for price activity in recent days, with the moving average 13 about crossing lower at $26.10 given credence to a change in trend.

To the upside, there is decent resistance in the $26.72 region, while to the downside, the current range’s bottom comes into play just around the $25.50 level. Currently, XAGUSD is rising, and bulls may try to push the price above $26.72.
XAGUSD_4_Hour_July_4.jpegXAGUSD Short term Trend: Ranging
Technical buying on the recovery from a short-term slump around ascending trendline support at the $25.52 level from June 29 has helped spot silver prices recapture past the $26.00 level in the short run. Silver, on the other hand, remains well within recent ranges when viewed over a medium time horizon.

This week, Silver (XAG) may attempt an upside breakout, and a break of $26.72 minor resistance might push the price to the $27.00 mark. There hasn’t been any follow-up buying yet. But, before any rise, sustained trading over the $26.00 level should confirm that a rebound from $25.52 has been completed at the $26.50 level.

Ripple Plummets Amid Former Executive’s Selling Spree

Many Ripple (XRP) enthusiasts are familiar with the monthly XRP escrow release. The XRP escrow got designed to integrate predictability and stability to XRP. Meanwhile, a part of this monthly supply gets directed to former Ripple executive Jed McCaleb.

However, instead of holding his newly-minted coins, McCaleb eagerly dumps his holdings into the market. Recent data shows that the former Ripple CTO sold over 150 million XRP (~$98 million) within the past three weeks alone. XRPScan revealed that McCaleb became more consistent in selling his XRP holdings over the past few weeks and has sold about 10 million XRP every day since he received his monthly supply from Ripple escrow. Currently, his wallet, labeled “Tacostand,” holds 590 million XRP.

Coupled with the recent market bias and volatility in June, McCaleb’s selling spree pushed the price of XRP below the $1 mark. At press time, XRP trades near the $0.6000 price mark as selling pressure mounts on the cryptocurrency.

That said, the Ripple community blames McCaleb for the current poor performance of XRP and expects the price to bounce back once he exhausts his holdings. However, with his current wallet balance, the former Ripple executive’s selling spree could persist till the end of August.

Key Ripple Levels to Watch — July 14

After consolidation between the $0.6500 – $0.6000 range for the past six days, Ripple appears to have broken below this range as selling pressure in the broader crypto market increases. XRP needs to climb back above the $0.6000 psychological line over the coming hours or risk falling to the $0.5500 support.

final_60ee80880a7aa70091d4906c_35983.png XRPUSD – 4-Hour Chart

Nonetheless, the overall market bias is overwhelmingly bearish despite the low trading volume. XRP bulls will have a tough time defending the $0.6000 given the current market conditions. However, a successful defense of this line could help XRP climb above the bearish channel and the $0.6500 level over the coming days.

Meanwhile, our resistance levels are $0.6200, $0.6500, and $0.7000, and our support levels are $0.5500, $0.5200, and $0.5000.

Bitcoin Whales Still Stacking Up Coins Despite Bear Market: Glassnode

Despite the recent crash below the critical $30k level by Bitcoin (BTC), on-chain metrics from Glassnode suggest that whales are still on binge acquisition mode.

According to the analytics platform’s weekly report released yesterday, the benchmark cryptocurrency’s reserves on crypto exchanges are on a steady decline despite having turned bearish since its sustained drop below $36k. Recent data put the average monthly withdrawal from crypto exchanges at about $1 billion.

Glassnode explained that this action by large investors indicates that they are moving their holdings to safe storage rather than selling on exchanges.

Glassnode also reported a spike in the number of entities HODLing BTC since May, noting that this number has increased from 250,000 to 300,000 presently. According to the analytics firm, “an entity” is a unique on-chain cluster of associated addresses.

Glassnode revealed that the number of “sending entities” (unique address clusters selling their holdings) dropped significantly from 150,000 to 100,000, while “receiving entities” (unique address clusters HODLing or accumulating more coins) have spiked by 20% from 190,000 to 250,000 over the same time.

However, Glassnode highlighted that market sentiment is currently heavily divided, noting that:

“We have an extremely divided market, and one with a likely expansion of volatility just around the corner.”

Key Bitcoin Levels to Watch — July 20

After a prolonged bout of sideways movement, Bitcoin has finally broken below the critical $30k for the first time since June 22. The primary cryptocurrency suffered a devastating blow from the $31k pivot zone, which accelerated its descent below $30k.

5xEK1pjv.jpeg BTCUSD – 4-Hour Chart

The recent crash sent BTC to the $29.5k support, followed by a rebound to the $29.9k level presently. That said, the $29.5k support might not be the bottom of the present crash, and subsequent declines could follow in the coming hours and days.

Meanwhile, our resistance levels are at $30,000, $30,500, and $31,000, and our key support levels are at $29,500, $29,000, and $28,000.

GBPUSD - Both The Fed and BoE Are Scheduled To Announce Their Interest Rate Decisions! The GBPUSD rose up to 0.40% in value on Tuesday before slightly retracing and closing the day with a 0.21% gain. The increase in value is primarily due to the UK’s employment data which shows signs of stability and salary growth. The Bank of England is concerned the growth in salaries will continue to provide support for inflation. As a result, the BoE will likely pause in today’s rate decision.     During this morning's Asian session, the GBP saw a sudden bullish spike after the UK made public its inflation rate. The UK’s inflation rate increased from 2.3% to 2.6% which is an 8 month high. The higher rate of inflation along with high salary growth is likely to prompt the Bank of England to keep the rate unchanged at tomorrow’s meeting and for the upcoming months thereafter.

October's labor market data, which came in positive, continues to improve sentiment towards the Pound and UK. The unemployment rate held steady at 4.3%, employment rose by 173,000 instead of the expected drop of 12,000. Average wages, both with and without bonuses, grew by 5.2%, beating forecasts of 4.6% and 5.0%, respectively. On Tuesday, the GBP rose in value against the US Dollar, Swiss Franc and the Euro, but fell in value against the JPY. During this morning’s Asian session, the GBP is increasing in value against all currencies except against the Euro. However, traders will monitor if the GBP is able to maintain momentum against the US Dollar. Bank of England Supporting The GBP! As inflation in the UK over the past 3 years rose to a level substantially higher than the US and the Eurozone, the Bank of England is aiming to cut interest rates at a slower pace. The UK’s inflation peak was at 11.1%, the US inflation peak was 2% lower and the EU 0.5% lower. As a result, the GBP is maintaining its value and has been supported by this factor over the past 2 days. All experts currently believe the Bank of England will keep its base rate at 4.75% and cut rates at a slower pace than the Federal Reserve. However, investors believe that of the 9 members within the Monetary Policy Committee, 2 will vote for a rate cut. If more than 2 vote to cut rates, the Pound may come under short term pressure. Federal Reserve The Federal Reserve is due to make a decision on the Federal Fund Rate. Currently, the market believes the FOMC will vote to adjust rates by 0.25%. The CME FedWatch Tool indicates there is a 95% chance of the Federal Reserve opting to cut to 4.25-4.50% and the slightly lower bond yields also indicate a cut. However, when taking into consideration the rise in consumer and producer inflation, resilient employment sector and yesterday’s strong retail sales data, the possibility of a pause remains. The US Retail Sales increased by 0.7% in November surpassing expectations of +0.6%. The increase was the strongest in 4 months, however, Core Retail Sales only rose by 0.2%. One of the main elements which traders will be monitoring is if the Fed will indicate 2 or 3 cuts. Currently, the market is pricing in another 2 rate cuts. If the Chairman, Mr Powell, indicates the central bank could cut up to 3 times, the US Dollar is likely to come under pressure. Some traders fear that the Fed may suggest a full pause in the easing cycle or a significant slowdown in 2025. This concern has arisen because of inflation and newly elected US President Donald Trump's trade tariff policies on imports. If traders sense this hawkish tone within the Chairman’s Press Conference this evening, the US Dollar could see significant gains. Particularly as this will trigger higher bond yields which are already trading close to 6 month highs.

However, even though the price has risen since yesterday, the GBPUSD has yet to hit the 1.27464 level mentioned earlier. The price movement will depend strongly on the Federal Reserve’s rate decision and the guidance they provide for the upcoming 1-2 quarters. If the GBPUSD is able to maintain bullish price movement and rise again back up to the day’s high (1.27264), the exchange rate may maintain its buy indications from Moving Averages, RSI and price action.       Always trade with strict risk management.
