Bitcoin ends trading week near $30k: what to expect for the weekend?

The ending week has been extremely volatile for Bitcoin due to a series of important events. In total, over 80,000 traders' positions were liquidated during the week, amounting to more than $400 million. Despite the excessive price movement variability, the asset managed to maintain its bullish structure.

The local corrective movement of BTC ended near the $27k level. It is quite likely that the correction would have continued, but another bankruptcy of an American bank triggered a sharp surge of interest in the cryptocurrency.

Fundamental background

Financial markets and the global economy continue to be plagued by doubts about the solvency of investments in stocks, as well as the likelihood of an impending recession. The Philadelphia Fed published a business activity index, which fell to a level that previously preceded a recession.

It also became known that after raising the U.S. national debt limit by $1.5 trillion, the number of applications for 1-year insurance against U.S. default broke a record. Investors are beginning to hedge risks en masse, and the publication of labor market and GDP growth reports will only intensify these sentiments.

The U.S. GDP growth in the first quarter of 2023 was only 1.1%, with a forecast of 2%. The previous figure was 2.6%, indicating a significant acceleration in the slowdown in the U.S. economy. At the same time, the labor market continues to show resilience: with a forecast of 248,000 unemployment claims, the reality stopped at 230,000.

Thanks to the early stage of the bull market, Bitcoin is becoming an increasingly attractive asset for investors. The two-year high correlation with gold is direct evidence of BTC's new role. It is quite likely that as the situation in the global economy worsens, cryptocurrency will become more and more in demand.

However, it cannot be said that the latest macroeconomic data will prompt investors to buy BTC more actively. The economic slowdown plays into Bitcoin's hands, but the resilience of the labor market gives the Fed time to continue raising rates.

BTC/USD Analysis

Bitcoin has shown a high level of resilience and aggressive buying of support zones below the $28k level. This indicates strong bullish positions and suggests that BTC will likely succeed in consolidating above $30k. At the same time, investors failed to collect liquidity below the $27k level.

The situation with FRC bank triggered an impulsive bullish reaction, which allowed BTC to consolidate above $28k. However, there is a gradual decrease in bullish volumes as the price moves upward, raising questions about the trend's sustainability without a drop below $27k.

Technically, the BTC/USD continues its upward movement, and as of April 27, the price tested the $30k level. However, there was a decrease in trading volumes, which signals a weakening of the bullish impulse.

This image is no longer relevant

Technical metrics on the daily timeframe show the preservation of the bullish trend. The Stochastic Oscillator continues to execute a bullish crossover, and the RSI has taken on a flat direction. Meanwhile, the MACD is a step away from forming a bullish crossover, indicating the formation of a medium-term upward trend.

Conclusions

Bitcoin needs to stay above $29k by the end of today's trading session to strengthen its positions and continue moving towards $30k. However, trading activity will decrease over the weekend, making consolidation above $30k unlikely. The main task for BTC this week—to maintain the structure of the bullish trend—has been accomplished.

比特幣可能恢復上升趨勢

比特幣昨日出現強勁上漲。在突破 $90,000 關口後,這一主流加密貨幣漲至 $94,000,其漲勢暫時停滯。

比特幣成功突破90,000美元,而以太坊在短短一天內上漲超過10%,回升至1,800美元。 主要的催化劑是昨天唐納德·特朗普的一則聲明,他明確表示解除傑羅姆·鮑威爾作為美聯儲主席的職位並不是他的目標。

4月22日加密貨幣市場的交易建議

比特幣重回88,000美元區域,但以太坊面臨挑戰 昨天美國交易時段中的拋售潮,再次因美國股票指數下跌引發,比特幣買家進行了抵消,而以太坊在低點附近卻顯得乏人問津。顯然,在關於美國經濟衰退即將到來的討論不斷增加,以及美國聯邦準備理事會主席傑羅姆·鮑威爾面臨繼續降息的壓力之下,對加密貨幣的需求仍然受到抑制。

4月21日加密貨幣市場交易建議

比特幣和以太坊在經歷整個周末的橫盤整理後,於今天的亞洲交易時段大幅上漲。 此次上漲是由於謠傳美國聯邦儲備委員會主席Jerome Powell可能被免職的消息引發的——這一事件將進一步加劇目前撼動美國經濟的動盪,導致美元出現強烈的拋售,進一步削弱了投資者對綠幣的信心。

比特幣和以太坊依然在其橫向通道中波動,無法突破這些區間可能會危及加密貨幣市場更大範圍的復甦前景。然而,任何新一輪的拋售需要有強有力的理由,而這目前在市場上是不存在的。

對比特幣和以太坊的興趣重燃

儘管 Bitcoin 和 Ethereum 仍在努力恢復力量並重新進入多頭市場——自四月以來一直在橫盤渠道的下限附近出現大幅下滑,令投資者和交易者感到不安——越來越多潛在的零售交易者對加密貨幣市場表示興趣。 根據 Google 搜索數據,2025年3月「Bitcoin」的搜索指數達到34,是今年的最高讀數。

萊特幣加密貨幣的即日價格走勢技術分析,2025年4月17日星期四。

在 Litecoin 加密貨幣 4 小時圖上成功突破向上擴張楔形形態後,隨之出現了 Litecoin 價格走勢與隨機指標之間的背離現象,以及出現了Bearish 123 型態並伴隨 Bearish Ross Hook (RH) 的出現,那麼在不久的將來,Litecoin 可能會再次走弱,以跌破 73.29 的水平。如果其走弱的勢頭和波動性足夠強,則 Litecoin 會再次走弱至 72.35 作為其主要目標和 70.65 作為其次要目標,但如果在其通往先前描述的目標水平的途中,Litecoin 突然出現增強,尤其是突破並收於 78.17 以上,那麼之前描述的所有走弱情景將變得無效並自動取消。
