💵 💴 💶BTC Finally Reaches $100,000💴 💶
Bitcoin’s $100,000 mark has been one of the most anticipated milestones within the crypto community. For most traders and investors, it was always a question of “when,” not “if.” The asset has been experiencing a significant bull run since Donald Trump’s election victory and has finally reached this peak. Earlier this year, Bitcoin was trading at just around $42,000. The asset finally surpassed its 2021 high in March following the approval of Bitcoin ETFs by the SEC in the U.S. market. Bitcoin hit a new all-time high of $75,000 before the election, but this bullish development accelerated its growth further.
Fed Chair Jerome Powell Compares Bitcoin to Gold
While many crypto enthusiasts view Bitcoin as a potential alternative to the U.S. dollar, Powell stated that he does not share this perspective. When asked if he had invested in cryptocurrency, Powell mentioned that he is not permitted to do so. Industry leaders have long referred to Bitcoin as “digital gold” due to its annual growth and dominance over other fiat assets. In fact, many Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. market surpassed their gold counterparts within less than a year after launch.
Powell: “We Will Work to Maintain Labor Market Stability”Powell expressed his confidence in the U.S. economy during his speech, highlighting its strong performance, low unemployment rates, and progress in combating inflation. He emphasized the Fed’s cautious approach to monetary policy, aiming to control inflation while maintaining labor market stability. Powell also reiterated the Fed’s independence, confirming that relations with the Treasury will continue under the new administration. As for the Beige Book, the report noted that economic activity showed a slight increase in most Federal Reserve Districts.
Technical Overview
DXY
The Dollar Index (DXY) is strongly recovering at the start of the week, continuing its upward trend. Finding strength at the critical support level of 100.68, the DXY is expected to maintain its upward momentum as long as it stays above this support. Especially as it trades above the 106.68 level, upward movements are anticipated to accelerate. Buyers are observed to be dominant in this area, and the index is likely to advance toward resistance levels.
Resistances: 104.76 / 106.00 / 107.35
Supports: 104.02 / 102.26 / 100.68
BTC/USD
Bitcoin has reached the resistance of the descending channel structure and successfully broke through with significant volume. This resistance zone is crucial for BTC and could open the doors to a new bullish trend in the cryptocurrency markets. If Bitcoin manages to sustain its price above this strategic level, we may see bullish momentum for Bitcoin and other altcoins, triggering a rally that gains traction in the market. Therefore, the current levels represent a critical turning point that should be closely monitored.
Resistances: 68,350 / 71,927 / 75,000
Supports: 66,148 / 64,290 / 60,000
ETH/USD
ETHUSD continues to trade within the descending channel pattern, remaining under pressure. After losing its horizontal major support, ETHUSD is now priced around the 2400 level. If selling deepens, the critical support level to watch is 2100, where buyers are expected to strengthen. On the other hand, for the upward trend in ETH to continue, it needs to close decisively above the major resistance at 2922 with strong volume. If this resistance is breached, a new uptrend could begin.
Resistances: 2565 / 3000 / 3364
Supports: 2200 / 1700 / 1052
NASDAQ
The index, continuing its upward trend, is pricing above the 20,635 resistance level, maintaining its bullish momentum. In the event of potential pullbacks, two critical support levels stand out. Firstly, the 19,600 level serves as an important support zone in the short term. In case of a deeper pullback, the 18,400 level should be monitored as a strong buying area. Buyers are expected to step in at these levels.
Resistances: 20,635 / 22,400 / 23,000
Supports: 18,913 / 18,670 / 17,200
BRENT
Brent crude has shown medium-term recovery and regained its previous channel structure, continuing its upward trend. It has surpassed the 76.98 resistance zone, and as long as it holds above this level, it is expected to rise towards the 80.00 – 82.00 range. In the event of a pullback, the critical support level to monitor is the 72.37 zone, where buyers are expected to become active. Maintaining this support is crucial for the continuation of the trend.
Resistances: 74.45 / 76.98 / 79.84
Supports: 72.37 / 71.00 / 70.50
EURUSD
EUR/USD successfully broke through its ascending channel resistance and has been trading above both horizontal and channel resistance. It held above the 1.0983 resistance zone and reached our target of 1.114. However, facing selling pressure around 1.11, it lost this zone, creating a “deviation” and leading to a pullback. Now, the critical support level to watch for EUR/USD is 1.0983. Maintaining this level is crucial for stabilizing the price.
Resistances: 1.114 / 1.130 / 1.135
Supports: 1.098 / 1.088 / 1.080
XAUUSD
Gold has successfully rebounded from the 2533 level, reaching the anticipated target. However, it faced strong selling pressure from the rising channel resistance and horizontal resistance zone. It is currently trading actively at the 2668 level. Further pullbacks seem likely in the near term. In this context, the 2652 level emerges as a key support to monitor closely.
Resistance Levels: 2711 / 2757 / 2800
Support Levels: 2622 / 2590 / 2530
