Bitcoin

Bitcoin hit all downside targets as far as 3230/10. We are now getting very oversold in what is still a bull trend. 3230/10 is the 100 day moving average & could certainly mark a low for the correction. However if you buy on a retest today bear in mind there is a risk of further small losses as far as 3140/3100. Longs need stops below 3000.

We are probably very close to a low for the correction...or maybe the 100 day moving average at 3230/10 will already mark that low. If so we look for a bounce to 3475/85 & probably as far as resistance at 3620/50. We should struggle here initially & could even sell off back to 3250/00. However a break above 3700 targets 3790/99 & resistance at 3880/3910. A good chance of a high for the day if reached, but shorts need stops above 4000.

Gold remains supported by China's buying and USD weakness as traders eye US data

Gold struggles to capitalize on its intraday move up and remains below the $5,100 mark heading into the European session amid mixed cues. Data released over the weekend showed that the People's Bank of China extended its buying spree for a 15th month in January. Moreover, dovish US Fed expectations and concerns about the central bank's independence drag the US Dollar lower for the second straight day, providing an additional boost to the non-yielding yellow metal.

Cardano steadies as whale selling caps recovery

Cardano (ADA) steadies at $0.27 at the time of writing on Monday after slipping more than 5% in the previous week. On-chain data indicate a bearish trend, with certain whales offloading ADA. However, the technical outlook suggests bearish momentum is weakening, raising the possibility of a short-term relief rebound if buying interest picks up.

Japanese PM Takaichi nabs unprecedented victory – US data eyed this week

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple prices consolidated on Monday after correcting by nearly 9%, 8%, and 10% in the previous week, respectively.
