After a 2% gain over the weekend, bitcoin price is correcting lower on Monday. However, the downside momentum looks limited for the time being, which highlights the decreasing volatility in the cryptocurrency market. BTCUSD rallied from $6,900 to levels close to $8,500 within seven days, and the current retreat looks quite natural from the technical point of...
Since the start of April, bitcoin was mostly treading water below the $7,000 threshold. The volatility decreased, and there were no any interesting and significant drivers in the market as of late. But three days ago, the demand started to reemerge, and on Thursday, the digital currency jumped north aggressively. Today, BTCUSD continues to attract buyers, probing...
Crude oil prices climbed to the highest levels in more than three years Wednesday amid the ongoing tension in the Middle East. Brent touched levels above $73 and retreated to $72 today. The market remains bullish as there are lingering concerns over supply disruptions due to the Syrian factor as well as the conflict between Saudi Arabia and Iran. The already...
Gold prices climbed to one-week highs around $1346 Wednesday, as the greenback continues to decline against major currencies, retreating to two-week lows according to the USD index. The yellow metal is appreciating for a fourth straight day, also due to its safe haven status amid the lingering geopolitical concerns. Spot gold is yet to confirm its bullish move....
Crude oil prices are extending this week’s recovery after a major sell-off on Friday, with Brent is approaching the $70 threshold for the first time since the start of the month. The barrel is up 1.18% on the day, and the key question now is whether the prices will have enough impetus to challenge the key psychological resistance in the short term. The major...
After a three-day retreat, BTCUSD staged a rebound over the weekend and attempted to regain the $7,000 threshold on Monday but the sellers reemerged recently and sent the price into the negative territory again. Bitcoin is now down 1.75% on the day. Over the weekend, the digital currency broke several upside barriers as the sentiment in the industry has improved...
BTCUSD continues to suffer losses on Friday after yesterday’s drop by 1.2%. However, the price manages to keep above the key $6,400 mark so far, which prevents it from falling to early-April lows below $6,000. The cryptocurrency still fails to attract buyers and stage a rebound, trading in the negative territory for the second consecutive week. Despite all the...
Brent has recovered from yesterday’s two-week lows below $67 but lacks momentum to show a substantial corrective rebound on Thursday, oscillating around the $68 threshold. The markets look mixed on controversial US inventory data and signals from global stocks. The US crude oil stocks decreased sharply last week, but production continued to grow and hit fresh...
The first quarter was the worst one in bitcoin’s history. And the start of Q2 doesn’t look promising either, though it may turn out better down the road. After yesterday’s corrective rebound, the digital currency failed to secure its gains and slides again. The price faced resistance around $7,500 and is losing the $7,000 threshold on Wednesday, -4.55% on the...
The EURUSD pair continues to oscillate around the 1.23 level since last week, with the immediate obstacle for bulls is the 20-DMA which is now below 1.2350. The single currency obviously lacks the upside impetus and drivers to show a more consistent trading. However, the pair may receive the catalyst which will help it to decide on the direction, at least, in the...
Bitcoin is attempting to switch to a recovery mode on Monday after a major sell-off during the last week. The bullish momentum looks too timid so far to call a reversal from the area of two-month lows below $6,500, reached on Sunday. Having dipped to as low as $6,387.50 yesterday, BTCUSD is trying to regain the $7,000 mark as a break above will ease the immediate...
BTCUSD is extending its bearish move on Friday, finishing March with losses of 40%. The downside pressure has intensified following a break below the $8,000 mark, and after failed attempts to regain this threshold, the bulls had to give up. The price was testing early-February lows below $6,600 in the morning, now and attempts to cut losses and climb back above...
BTCUSD continues to bleed since last Sunday and has now entered the danger zone. Should the cryptocyrrency fail to attract buyers in the short term, it may show an even more significant bearish wave. Bitcoin is probing fresh 11-day lows on Thursday, getting closer to the crucial $7,000 mark. In the charts, there is a distinct bearish signal. The 50-day moving...
Gold prices edge lower on Wednesday as the greenback is on the rise against major rivals on the back of month-end flows, supporting the US currency. The trade war fears persist, and risk-off mood still prevails in the global stock markets. However, as the yellow metal has lost its shine as a safe haven asset, it doesn’t get any boost from the current...
After the initial jump on Monday morning, crude oil prices lost their steam and retreated on a daily basis. Today, Brent is attempting to regain the bullish momentum but the impetus looks limited as the market eyes fresh weekly API data. Brent is treading water around $69.70, +0.36 per cent on the day. The overall tone in the market looks bullish and the asset...
BTCUSD continues to trade in a bearish mode since Friday, after another failed attempt to break above the $9,000 mark. The digital currency is trading with a strong negative bias on Monday, losing over 6% on the day. The recent weakness in the market was mainly due to two major factors: the announced ads ban by Google, as well as the story between the Japanese...
After a spectacular ascent earlier this week, bitcoin struggles to regain the bullish momentum. The price touched mid-March highs just above the $9,000 figure but failed to make a decisive break of the psychological level and gave up to the bears. The cryptocurrency is attempting to keep above $8,000 on Friday. The latest sell-off, though not a very aggressive...
Crude oil prices extended a spectacular rally yesterday and touched early February highs around $69.50. But the major psychological resistance of $70 has scared the bulls, and Brent faded its earlier spike on Thursday, trading almost 1.5% lower on the day. The bullish move was recently fuelled by rising geopolitical tensions around Iran, increasing the risk of...
