Oil Market Update – 28 March 2025Oil Market Update – 28 March 2025
Oil prices continue to move within a volatile range, influenced by competing fundamental factors. On one hand, geopolitical developments — such as potential sanctions on oil-producing nations and newly announced U.S. tariffs on Venezuelan oil — have contributed to recent upward pressure. On the other hand, market participants remain cautious due to broader macroeconomic uncertainties.
Key Levels Observed by Market Participants:
• The $71.50 level has previously acted as a point of interest; some analysts are watching to see how price behaves around this area.
• In the event of downward movement, the $66.00–$66.50 range has historically attracted attention during past price consolidations.
• Should the price establish itself above $72.00 with supportive developments, attention may turn toward the $75.00 region, which has been highlighted in prior analyses.

Bitcoin Market Update – 26 March 2025Bitcoin Market Update – 26 March 2025
After reaching an all-time high near $110,000 earlier in 2025, Bitcoin experienced a notable correction and is currently trading around the $88,000 level.
Key Technical Observations:
• The area near $91,300 may act as short-term resistance. If price action struggles to maintain momentum there, we may observe a retest of lower zones such as $80,000 or $78,000. A sustained move below $78,000 could bring the $72,000 demand region into focus.
• On the upside, a decisive 4-hour or 1-hour candle close above $93,000 could indicate strengthening bullish sentiment. Should that occur with supporting volume and positive market conditions, the $100,000 area may come back into view, followed by the previous high near $110,000 as a potential reference point.

Gold Consolidation or Secondary phase?Gold currently trading in consolidation phase, waiting for the next fundamental catalyst to make its move. This week we have the important GDP and PCE numbers which could be it.
Keeping in mind, we are approaching End of month and Quarter, and it's very common to see profit taking move and rebalance of flows.
Why is Gold hitting record highs while Silver lags behind?Silver 21-Mar-2025:
Many investors are wondering why Gold continues to reach new highs, while Silver remains below its 2011 all-time high of around $49.50.
It’s important to understand that Silver is not perceived as a safe-haven asset to the same extent as Gold. During times of uncertainty, capital tends to flow more aggressively into Gold as a hedge. While Silver may benefit from this momentum, its heavy use in industrial production makes a sharp rally less favorable for manufacturers—much like we see in oil markets.
As of now, Silver is trading around $33.
From a technical perspective, some traders are observing the following levels:
* A potential short-term move above $35 may open the way for a retest of the $37 area.
* Support was previously seen near $32.5.
* A sustained move below $32.5 might lead to a deeper correction, possibly toward the $30.8 support zone.
* If the $30 psychological level fails to hold, further downside toward $29 cannot be ruled out.

EUR/USD on the Move: What’s Driving the Action?Eur/Usd 18-Mar-2025 :
Starting the year, Eur/Usd was expected to reach the parity point of 1/1. This was mainly supported by the US election results and tariffs policy which were expected to give strength to the US dollar against other currency pairs, in addition to the rate-cut expectations of the ECB.
The lowest point for Eur/Usd for this yes was in mid-Jan where it reached slightly lower than 1.02.
Currently with the depreciation of Usd due to the fear of recession, and the push in Eur supported by the German Fiscal policy which is expected to spend 500 billion on infra-structure and defense. Euro pair is trading at 1.09.
The below possible scenarios could take place:
• Breaking and retest above 1.095 could be the trigger to test the higher time-frame demand area at 1.12
• Breaking below 1.0925 could see a deeper pull-back to 1.08
• Breaking below 1.075 could lead to price retesting 1.063

Gold at a Crossroads: Can It Hold Above $3,000 or Pull Back?Gold Update – 17 March 2025
Gold recently reached new all-time highs around $3,000 last week, encountering a reaction at this psychological level. Today, the latest Retail Sales data was released, coming in below expectations.
Potential market movements:
• Gold may revisit the previous high of $3,004.
• A move below $2,980 could lead to a test of the $2,955 area.
• A deeper retracement could bring prices toward the $2,930 level.
For Gold to sustain movement above $3,004, market participants may look for a series of confirmed intraday closes above this level.

Gold’s Record Run: Is 3000 the Next Battleground?Gold 14-Mar-2025:
During this week, Gold moved above the first consolidation area at 2930 following the CPI data release. The next day, price also surpassed previous highs at 2955, reaching a new record at 2993, amid lower inflation data (both CPI & PPI) and ongoing trade-war uncertainties.
As for potential scenarios:
• Gold may trade lower to retest the 2955 level, depending on market sentiment and liquidity.
• It is important to monitor the psychological 3000 level, as price action could experience increased volatility around this area.
• Price action could also see a deeper pullback to 2940 before potential buyers step in at better prices, though this remains subject to broader market conditions.

ASX Extremely Oversold Friday Afternoon Short SqueezeLooking for sellers to take profit and bargain hunters to squeeze this heavily sold Australia stock index into the close Friday or for Pop higher Morning if US stocks can Bounce.
In large sell offs Friday are profit taking days for sellers and this naturally causing some buying as they close short positions and in the fallout there are some stocks that are bought on dips that help the whole index rally.
Some good news would help but technically its sets up some excellent 3-1 and 5-1 risk rewards.

ETH Testing Strong Levels, Heading Higher?Crypto markets were on the back foot last week, feeling the pressure as governments were looking at the asset as a way around sanctions. Compounding the affect was the U.S. government ordering an executive order looking into crypto assets. Most feared this would result in direct oversight and regulation, which is indeed part of the order, but also looked into the scenario of a digital USD, slightly softening market fears.
We saw this pattern of risk-off and recovery practically across the board, but ETH seems to have the strongest proven levels with the Fib retracement: having broken through the 0.236 level ($2816) moving towards the 0.382 level at $3193.21 which it may test, return to 50% of 3524, and then push upwards again. If ETH manages to break through the 0.382 level after testing it, we may see a run towards testing 0.5 at $3513.72, if that level is broken as well, we may see ETH head towards $3800 with little resistance.
