The post Rapid Retail Mood Swings Signal Caution as BTC Retreats Amid Iran Strikes appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Crypto markets have seen a minor rally as crowd sentiment improves, but this is not necessarily a good thing, say analysts. Crypto traders have “flipped their expectations several times” in just one month, reported analytics provider Santiment on Wednesday. The crowd was heavily bearish for most of June, calling for lower prices as Bitcoin slipped to $58,000. However, they’ve flipped bullish now as BTC rebounded towards $64,000, said Santiment before adding: “These fast mood swings show how reactive retail sentiment can be when price starts moving.” Markets Move Opposite to Crowds Crypto typically moves opposite to what the crowd is most loudly expecting, “because markets tend to punish crowded trades.” This can be seen in action today as markets have retreated 1.5% with Bitcoin falling below $63,000 on Wednesday morning in Asia. “Optimism doesn’t mean the rally is

The post Bitcoin (BTC) Tests a Critical Zone: Will Buyers Target $64K or Lose Ground to $60K? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin price is holding near $63.2K. BTC is testing the $64K resistance. The largest asset, Bitcoin (BTC), is knocking on the door of the $64K resistance level again, but it’s stuck in a waiting game. Because the price is sitting right below its 50-day moving average, $65.8K, the market is essentially moving sideways. The real trigger is tomorrow’s FOMC minutes. Traders are glued to this economic update, as any hints on interest rates could easily make waves in the market and break Bitcoin out of this tight box. If buyers can push through and close a daily candle above $64K, it proves they have the strength to fight back toward that $65.8K line. On the flip side, if the news turns sour and sellers take control, the $60.7K level is the line in the sand. Losing that support could trigger a wider market sell-off, while holding it keeps the current recovery a

The post AUD/JPY Price Forecast: Edges higher above 112.50 as mildly bullish bias persists appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The AUD/JPY cross gathers strength to around 112.70 during the early European session on Wednesday. Nonetheless, renewed tensions between the US and Iran, and fears of possible intervention by Japanese authorities might support the Japanese Yen (JPY) and cap the upside for the cross. BBC reported on Tuesday that the US launched “powerful” strikes on Iran in response to attacks on three oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. US Central Command (Centcom) said that it had hit over 80 targets, including more than 60 Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) small boats in the strait. Technical Analysis: In the daily chart, AUD/JPY holds above the 100-day moving average (MA) and the Bollinger Bands’ (20) middle band, keeping the broader trend supported after the latest rebound. Price is also comfortably above the lower Bollinger band, while the Relative Strength Index
