Cryptocurrencies Tumble in April ? What Comes Next?

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_cryptos

Over the weekend, the cryptocurrency market took another tumble. Bitcoin fell more than 10% and tested the $32k level before bouncing. Also, Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies have lost more, with most of the coins down over 50% in April.

It all started with Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, tweeting at the start of the trading month that the company will not accept Bitcoin as payment for the purchasing of its electric vehicles. As such, Bitcoin collapsed, and other digital assets followed the same path.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_2-1

Is It the First Time When Bitcoin Drops That Much?

A quick check at the Bitcoin?s price history reveals that such a drop is actually part of the way the asset moves. Throughout history, Bitcoin lost over 80% of its value three times ? in 2013, 2016, and 2018.

Some other times, it frequently lost more than 40% of its value. Yet, Bitcoin did found its way out of it, although the volatility is not for the everyone.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_1-1

If we look at what happened in May so far, Bitcoin?s price corrected from over $60k close to $30k. That is a drop of 50% in less than a month.

This is a problem not only for the crypto assets but for traditional financial assets too. One must remember how Bitcoin?s adoption has increased among institutional investors lately, and such a drop may end up posing a systemic risk to markets.

It did not, so far, as the equity markets remain stable. However, the declines in some crypto assets are so steep that institutional investors that adopted crypto have some explaining to do to their clients.

All in all, the move lower in Bitcoin is not unusual if we check historical prices. The only thing that is different at this point is that the move lower does not affect only retail traders anymore but also institutional investors. If the bearish market continues, the risk of seeing some spillovers in the traditional markets increases exponentially.

BTC and XRP ? Starting impulse to the upside likely developing

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_btc

BTC/USD

The price of Bitcoin has recovered significantly from Sunday?s low of around $32,000 as it made an increase of 27% measured to its highest point today at $39.723. Since then we have seen a minor pullback with the price currently being traded at $37,896 and moving to the downside again.

On the hourly chart, you can see that the price made a five-wave increase from Sunday and came slightly above the significant horizontal level that served as support now turned resistance. This is why the price struggled to keep up its upward trajectory and is now headed to the downside again.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_btcusd-1h-3

From Sunday we have most likely seen the start of the next move to the upside as the corrective ABC of the highest degree ended. If this is true, then we are now seeing the first sub-wave of the next five-wave impulse coming to completion as is why the currently seen downside move would be expected to continue pushing the price further down. That would be expected to develop as the 2nd sub-wave of the higher degree count and it should now form a higher low compared to Sunday?s one, potentially around $36,000 where the next horizontal support is in line. But from there further upside movement would be expected and a breakout above the $42,000 horizontal zone.

EUR/USD Eyes Additional Gains, USD/JPY Remains At Risk

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_Euro-EUR-USD

EUR/USD is gaining pace above the 1.2200 resistance zone. USD/JPY is showing bearish signs below the 108.85 and 109.00 resistance levels.

Important Takeaways for EUR/USD and USD/JPY

  • The Euro started a fresh increase above the 1.2200 resistance zone.
  • There is a key bullish trend line forming with support near 1.2240 on the hourly chart of EUR/USD.
  • USD/JPY declined below the 109.20 and 109.00 support levels.
  • There is a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near 109.00 on the hourly chart.

EUR/USD Technical Analysis

After forming a base above the 1.2050 level, the Euro started a fresh increase against the US Dollar. The EUR/USD pair broke the 1.2150 resistance level to move into a positive zone.

The pair even broke the 1.2200 level and settled nicely above the 50 hourly simple moving average. A high is formed near 1.2263 on FXOpen and the pair is now consolidating gains. It corrected lower below the 1.2250 support zone.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_eurusd-chart-2

There was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the 1.2160 swing low to 1.2263 high. However, the pair is holding the 1.2200 support zone.

There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support near 1.2240 on the hourly chart of EUR/USD. If there is a downside break below the trend line, the pair could test the 1.2210 zone. It is near the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the 1.2160 swing low to 1.2263 high.

An intermediate support is near the 1.2225 level and the 50 hourly simple moving average. On the upside, the pair is likely to accelerate higher if it clears 1.2265. The next major resistance is near the 1.2300 level. Any more gains could lead the pair towards the 1.2350 level. An intermediate resistance might be near the 1.2320 level.

LTC and EOS ? At key turning point

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_ltc-1

LTC/USD

The price of Litecoin has been on the rise since the 23rd when it fell down to $128.32 at its lowest point. From there we have seen an increase of 58% measured to its highest point yesterday at around $203. Since then a minor pullback was made but the price is once again in an upward trajectory and is currently being traded at $196.3.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_ltcusd-1h-3

On the hourly chart, you can see that from the 23rd of May we have seen an impulsive five-wave move after which the price started consolidating. It did so in a three-wave manner which is most likely the 2nd sub-wave of the next higher degree impulse to the upside. We have seen the completion of a 3-3-5 move with a higher low made today compared to the one on the 25th as the first pullback which validated that the support is getting higher and that buyers are stepping in.

If this was a running flat correction that ended now today we have seen the start of the next wave to the upside which is set to exceed the high on the 25th and propel the price much stronger potentially to the territory of the 0.5 Fib level at around $264.65. But if this is the five-wave impulse of the higher degree it should continue moving to the upside beyond that point after another pullback on the 4th wave.

Looking at the movement of LTC on the Weekly time frame, it can be seen that the price is rejected in the support area at the $ 138.85 price range, and there is a potential to move up with a target at the $ 235.30 resistance area.

Gold Price and Oil Price Turn Attractive On Dips

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_gold-price

Gold price traded above the $1,900 resistance zone before correcting lower. Crude oil price is rising and it is trading nicely above the $65.00 pivot level.

Important Takeaways for Gold and Oil

  • Gold price gained pace above the $1,850 and $1,880 resistance levels against the US Dollar.
  • There is a key contracting triangle forming with resistance near $1,898 on the hourly chart of gold.
  • Crude oil price climbed higher and it cleared the $67.00 resistance zone.
  • There is a major bullish trend line forming with support near $66.00 on the hourly chart of XTI/USD.

Gold Price Technical Analysis

This week, gold price started a steady increase above the $1,850 level against the US Dollar. It broke a few key hurdles near $1,880 to move further into a positive zone.

The price even settled above the $1,880 zone and the 50 hourly simple moving average. There was a clear break above the $1,900 level and a high was formed near $1,912 on FXOpen. The price is now correcting gains and trading below $1,900.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_gold-price-chart-1

There was a break below $1,890, but downsides were limited. The price traded as low as $1,888 and the price is now consolidating. It seems like there is a key contracting triangle forming with resistance near $1,898 on the hourly chart of gold.

The triangle resistance is near the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $1,912 high to $1,888 low. The main resistance is now forming near the $1,900 level and the 50 hourly simple moving average.

The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $1,912 high to $1,888 low is also near the $1,900 zone. A clear break above the $1,900 level may possibly open the doors for a move towards the $1,920 level or even $1,935.

On the downside, the price is likely to find bids near $1,888. If there is a downside break below $1,888, there are chances of a move towards the $1,870 level in the near term.

The price movement on TF H4 above shows that the price is in a sideways condition because the supply and demand area is still strong enough to hold price movements, and in my analysis today it is likely that the price movement is still between the supply area at 1902 and the demand area at 1880, unless something goes wrong one base that is on the new breakout shows the next market direction.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_gbpusd-chart-4

There was also a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance near 1.4190 on the hourly chart of GBP/USD. The pair is now trading nicely above the 1.4180 level.

Gold Breaks Above $1,900 On Inflation Fears

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_Gold-price-oil-price-2

Gold has long played an important role in financial markets. It is the only form of money that survived for millenniums, and investment managers value it as a hedge against inflation.

Inflation is on everyone?s lips nowadays. In April, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in the United States has grown at the fastest pace since 1981. Both the core and the headline CPI are poised to rise further in the summer, as the US government and the Fed keep the accommodative measures.

Last week, the Personal Core Expenditure (PCE) in the United States rose by 0.7% on expectations of 0.6% and following 0.4% in the previous month. The upbeat data is important because the PCE measures the change in the price of goods and services purchased by consumers, without counting for energy and food prices, considered too volatile. Also, the PCE is the Fed?s favored way of measuring inflation, and the rise fuels expectations of higher inflation in the months ahead.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_cpi

Two Different Recessions

A quick comparison of the two last recessions reveals that the CPI had a different path. For example, in the aftermath of the 2008-2009 Great Financial Crisis, inflation fell below zero. In other words, deflation gripped the world?s developed economies, or at least it threatened to do so.

However, it is not the case during the current recession. Instead of falling, inflation is poised to rise further. The Fed in the United States has anticipated higher inflation already since August last year. During the Jackson Hole symposium in 2020, the Fed changed its mandate from targeting 2% to averaging 2% over a certain period.

Higher inflation typically triggers higher gold prices. Only that the price of gold tumbled since last summer, falling from a record high above $2,000 to below $1,700. At the same time, the US dollar continued to weaken, losing ground against its G10 peers.

But the price of gold recovered from its recent lows and now threatens to break to a new all-time high. If the trend in inflation seen in April is set to continue, the bullish trend in the price of gold is likely to continue as well.

Now that the cryptocurrency market lost more than half of its value, as seen by the price of Bitcoin falling by 50% in a couple of weeks, investors seem to favor gold again as a hedge against inflation. If that is the case, the recent rise in the price of gold is just the start of an attempt at a new all-time high. The higher the CPI rises, the bigger the share investors will allocate to gold.

EUR/USD Eyes More Upsides, USD/CHF Could Extend Losses

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_Euro-EURUSD-1

EUR/USD is trading in a positive zone above the 1.2200 support. USD/CHF is declining and it could extend losses below the 0.8950 support zone.

Important Takeaways for EUR/USD and USD/CHF

  • The Euro started a fresh increase and it broke the 1.2200 resistance zone against the US Dollar.
  • There is a key expanding triangle forming with resistance near 1.2255 on the hourly chart of EUR/USD.
  • USD/CHF started a fresh decline after it failed to clear the 0.9020 resistance zone.
  • There was a break below a major bullish trend line with support near 0.8980 on the hourly chart.

EUR/USD Technical Analysis

The Euro formed a strong support base above the 1.2120 level against the US Dollar. As a result, the EUR/USD pair started a fresh increase and it traded above the main 1.2200 resistance zone.

The pair even surged above the 1.2220 level and settled above the 50 hourly simple moving average. A high was formed near 1.2254 on FXOpen and the pair is now correcting gains. It traded below the 1.2220 support level.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_eurusd-chart

There was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the 1.2132 swing low to 1.2254 high. It is now trading nicely above the 1.2200 support zone and the 50 hourly SMA.

There is also a key expanding triangle forming with resistance near 1.2255 on the hourly chart of EUR/USD. On the upside, the pair is facing hurdles near the 1.2240 and 1.2250 levels. A clear upside break above 1.2250 could set the pace for a larger increase.

On the downside, there is a major support forming near the 1.2200 zone. The next key support is near the 1.2190 level. It is near the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the 1.2132 swing low to 1.2254 high.

A downside break below the 1.2190 support could increase selling pressure in the near term. The next major support could be near the 1.2150 level.

LTC and EOS ? Indecision

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_ltc-1

LTC/USD

The price of Litecoin has bee on the rise since the 30th of May again after it came down to $157.3 from $207. It reached today $197 at its highest point and is now making a minor pullback.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_ltcusd-1h

We have seen the start of the recovery from the 23rd when it fell all the way down to $127 and even lower on the wick to the downside. This is why the recovery seen from there could be the start of the next impulsive move to the upside that is now going to develop in a five-wave manner. On the other hand, this could be another corrective stage with the price making some kind of an ABC correction after further downtrend continuation.

In the first case, we could see a breakout from the currently formed rising flat triangle on the upside which would validate the possibility of the upward momentum. But if the ascending trendline breaks out to the downside it could be an early indication that the price is headed further down below its lowest levels this year.

EOS/USD

The price of EOS has been moving sideways from the 30th of May when it fell to $5.5 area from its high of $7.52. Since then it has recovered to $6.67 at its highest point today but is now sitting again lower as it encountered resistance.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_eosusd-1h

On the hourly chart, you can see that the price has formed a sideways range from the 30th with slight ascending levels. This could be the start of the next impulsive move as a leading diagonal or it could be the 2nd sub-wave of the next move to the downside which is still unclear. This is why it would be safe to say that a breakout beyond its outline levels could provide an early indication of where the price is headed further.

If the price continues increasing and manages to go above the resistance levels this could meant that the price is headed further up, but if its support gets broken we could see further downtrend continuation.

Recently, the Aussie Dollar made a few attempts to clear the 0.7765 resistance zone against the US Dollar. The AUD/USD pair failed to gain momentum and it started a major decline below 0.7750.

It broke the 0.7700 support level and settled well below the 50 hourly simple moving average. The pair even broke the 0.7675 support level and extended its decline. It traded as low as 0.7644 on FXOpen and it is currently consolidating losses.

Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_audusd-chart

An initial resistance on the upside is near the 0.7670 level. It is near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the 0.7755 high to 0.7644 low.

The first major resistance is near the 0.7675 level (the recent breakdown zone). The next major resistance is near the 0.7700 level. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the 0.7755 high to 0.7644 low.

Any more gains could lead the pair towards the 0.7715 level and the 50 hourly simple moving average. Conversely, the pair could further decline below the 0.7650 support zone.

The next major support is near the 0.7640 level. If there is a downside break below the 0.7640 level, the pair could extend its decline towards the 0.7580 level.
