The post Crude Oil Jumped to $74, and a Tiny Crypto Token Saw It Coming appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Crude oil price has jumped back to $74 a barrel after a fragile Iran ceasefire collapsed this week. Fresh tanker attacks near the Strait of Hormuz revived fears over the world’s most important oil chokepoint, and crude oil prices spiked in response. But the bounce did not catch everyone off guard. The last trading data before the truce broke shows big players were already betting on higher prices. A tiny corner of the crypto market, courtesy of the WTI Coin flashed the same signal. WTI Coin Details: RWA.xyz Big Traders Were Buying the Oil Price Dip The futures market may have called the move first.

Gold price (XAU/USD) trades 0.8% higher to near $4,110 during the European trading session on Thursday. The precious metal gains as the US Dollar (USD) is down despite a slight improvement in expectations that the next monetary policy move by the Federal Reserve (Fed) will be on the upside. At press time, the US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback’s value against six major currencies, trades 0.1% lower to near 100.95 even after recovering over half of its early losses.

Hawkish Fed prospects have increased as oil prices have bounced back strongly due to renewed Middle East tensions. Technically, higher interest rates by the Fed bode poorly for non-yielding assets, such as Gold. Investors worry

The post Silver Price Forecasts: XAG/USD picks up above $59.00 as US Dollar softens appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Silver (XAG/USD) is trimming losses on Thursday, and hitting session highs just above $59.00 after bouncing from $57.22 lows on Wednesday. US Dollar’s pullback has given some oxygen to the battered precious metals, although Silver’s broader trend remains bearish, after having lost more than $3 so far this week. The White metal is drawing some support from a weaker US Dollar following the release of the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) minutes. The central bank maintained its commitment to fight inflationary pressures, but a split market committee has left investors pondering the timing of the next interest rate hikes. Furthermore, Iran and the US have exchanged attacks for the second consecutive day, but comments from US President Donald Trump affirming that Iran “wants to make a deal so badly” suggest that Washington and Tehran will return to the negotiating table.

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) trades lower on Thursday and hovers around $73.10 at the time of writing, down 1.95% on the day as investors take profits following two consecutive days of strong gains. Despite the pullback, downside pressure remains limited as heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue to underpin Oil prices. Tensions between the United States (US) and Iran escalated after a new wave of US strikes targeted Iranian positions. In response, Tehran launched attacks against several US military facilities in the Gulf and threatened further retaliation. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump said that the memorandum of understanding with Iran aimed at easing the conflict was no longer in effect, reviving concerns about a renewed regional escalation. Markets remain focused on developments surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic shipping lane thro

The post Bitcoin Holds Strong Amid Renewed Middle East Hostilities appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin has remained relatively strong as tensions erupted between the US and Iran over the last couple of days. Can the $BTC price hang on to support around the $62K level, or if attacks from both sides escalate, could this be what sends Bitcoin spiralling into a bear market bottom? $BTC price bounces back to $63K resistance Source: TradingView As expected, the $BTC price came back down, given its slightly overbought nature of the last day or two. Also, the price found good support on the top of the falling wedge, at horizontal support, and at the bull market trendline. After bouncing, the price has currently come up against the $63K horizontal resistance which is preventing further gains up to now. There will possibly be more sideways price action to come, unless of course events in the Middle East drag the U.S. stock market down, which in turn would likely take the $BTC price dow
