Visa: Completing correction, upside potential ahead [Video]

Gregor Horvat Wavetraders

Visa Inc. is a global payments technology company that operates one of the world’s largest electronic payment networks. It enables secure electronic transactions between consumers, merchants, and banks in over 200 countries, focusing on fast, reliable, and cashless payments.

Visa has pulled back roughly 15% from its highs and appears to be completing a clear A-B-C corrective decline. Moves out of triangle formations are often final legs within corrective structures, suggesting a new bullish push could be approaching. This outlook is reinforced by the unfilled gap near 371, which historically tends to act as a price magnet over time. As a result, a reversal to the upside over the coming weeks or months would not be surprising. A breakout above the corrective channel would serve as a key confirmation for trend resumption.

Highlights

Visa appears to be completing an A-B-C decline.
Channel break signals potential upside continuation.
Unfilled gap at 371 remains a key upside target for 2026.

Support levels at 311 and 298 on deeper pullbacks.

Gold recovers major part of intraday losses to sub-$4,800 levels; down a little on firmer USD

Gold rebounds swiftly following the Asian session fall to sub-$4,800 levels and climbs back above the $4,900 mark in the last hour, though the upside potential seems limited. Wednesday's softer US ADP report pointed to labor market weakness and strengthened the case for interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, lending support to the non-yielding yellow metal.

BTC steadies as bears shift focus toward $70,000

Bitcoin price remains under pressure so far this week, with the Crypto King slipping below $73,000 on Tuesday for the first time since November 2024.

Top Crypto Losers: Zcash, Stacks, BNB drop further as Bitcoin weakens

Zcash, Stacks, and BNB (formerly Binance Coin) are among the biggest losers over the last 24 hours as Bitcoin approaches $72,000.
