The Swiss franc is down for a second straight trading day. In the European session, USD/CHF is trading at 0.8980, up 0.38% on the day. The Swiss economy slowed to 0.2% q/q in the fourth quarter of 2024, down from 0.4% in Q3 and in line with expectations. This was the weakest expansion since Q2 2023. Construction weakened in the fourth quarter but manufacturing and exports rebounded from the previous quarter. Annualized, GDP rose 1.5%, down from 1.9% in Q3, the softest expansion in three quarters. The weak GDP data supports the case for the Swiss National Bank to lower interest rates. The central bank is in the midst of an easing cycle and showed its aggressive side in December when it chopped rates by 50 basis points, bringing the cash rate to 0.50%. The SNB only meets on a quarterly basis, magnifying the importance of each meeting. The next meeting is on March 20 and the markets have priced in a 25-bps cut at close to 100%. There are two key factors that Bank policymakers will be looking ahead of a rate decision - inflation levels and the exchange rate. Inflation has fallen by 0.1% for four consecutive months and is putting pressure on the SNB to continue lowering rates. The next inflation report is on March 5 and another soft report would cement a rate cut at next month's meeting. The SNB also uses monetary policy to ensure that the Swiss franc is not too strong, which would hurt the export sector. The US releases second-estimate GDP for the fourth quarter of 2024 later today. The initial estimate came in at 2.3%, down from 3.2% in the third quarter. The US economy remains strong and inflation has been largely contained. The Federal Reserve is expected to cut rates this year only once or twice, unless the economic data does not evolve as expected. USD/CHF is testing resistance at 0.8992. Above, there is resistance at 0.9018 0.8969 and 0.8943 are providing support
Use the 1-month Donchian channel to determine the entry. Not just that, of course, but as the first signal. There was a breakout to the upside with an increase in daily volume, which shows interest in a consistent upward movement. Volume is King here. We have seen the market consistently accumulate since November 2024. Notice that during the price drop between 01/16/2025 and 02/10/2025, the volume was very low compared to the previous bullish period. Right after this drop, the price starts to rise again, and so does the volume. The market consolidated the price with significant volume for accumulation, and now it begins to show signs of an upcoming bull period. Insiders? The company’s fundamentals don't seem strong enough to justify this excessive volume. The sharks are more aware of the good analysis than the small fish. Will the result in 12 days surprise us? Or is there news about to be released? My focus is on chart analysis, and it seems like a good time to follow the big players. Entry at 2.36. Stop at 2.00. 6% of the capital, considering the 1% risk per trade.
My bullish buy setup on MKRUSDT is done utilizing the Structure & Liquidity a.k.a Quasimodo(QM) strategy. Confluences are- 1) Market Structure 2) Order-Block 3) Liquidity Targeting a 1:2.5RR minimum. Note: trading is all about probabilities which also makes my analysis a probability.

Although macro-economic indicators are not confirming a sudden increment in gold value... But it's at a major support line that it shall increase the gold price for short-term accumulations today. --- About me: Gerald Mann is an specialist in financial operations, and served as policy adviser to Barack Obama.
Bitcoin is trading right now between the 0.5 and 0.382 Fib. retracement levels relative to the last bullish wave. Let's dissect what this means. The main levels are always 0.382 and 0.618 when it comes to Fibonacci retracements. The 0.5 level is also relevant and pairs tend to find support around this line. Bitcoin broke the 0.382 Fib. level decisively but on very low volume. Bitcoin failed to test 0.5 Fib. retracement level as support. The fact that volume is low and 0.5 wasn't pierced works in favors of the bulls. Notice that 0.618, the golden ratio, is not even in question. This is because the market is ultra-bullish. When the market is bullish, a reversal tends to happen at 0.382 or above 0.618. The fact that Bitcoin stopped its fall above this major support is good news for the bulls. This is good for those that are trading Bitcoin LONG. Just hold patiently because prices will recover and Bitcoin will grow. Not only grow but massive growth. Signals continue to develop from the Altcoins market, today is not the same as yesterday, today we have a continuation on many, many big and small pairs. At first, it would be doubtful to trust the signals that I am showing because the action was young in some cases, in other cases it was weak and small. But this isn't the case anymore. Very big projects such as Aptos, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Polkadot, Zcash and Maker are only a few of the many examples I've been showing you. This is enough to know, confirm and trust that the bottom is already in, the Altcoins market is going up. The only way the Altcoins can grow is if Bitcoin is also going to grow. The Altcoins never move up while Bitcoin is bearish. Seeing an Altcoin growing 100%+ in a single day means that the bears are weak while the bulls are strong. We are experiencing the final-final flush before a major, massive, incredibly, hyper, uber-rich Cryptocurrency market bull-run. So support is good and support is really strong. The 0.5 Fib. retracement level sits at $79,000 but this level wasn't hit. Bitcoin bottomed before hitting $82,000 but some people are saying lower and this is where confusion comes. I understand that we have many great traders and market analysts. TradingView is truly the best place in the world (Internet) for trading, learning, growing and sharing about financial markets and charts. But these same markets and charts can't lie. We can interpret some signals in a way that is detached from reality but the market is never wrong. Whatever is about to happen, it is clearly revealed when we look at the charts. FIOUSDT is another pair that is breaking up just too strong after a higher low. The low being 3-February and the higher low a few days ago (25-Feb). This is just another confirmation that the correction is over; we (Bitcoin) are going up next. It is great to be part of this market and this community. It is such a blessing to have access this kind of knowledge and information. Because I can read this now I can rest easy and be calm. I know that regardless of what happens, Bitcoin is going up. Bitcoin isn't going up in years to come, nor in the future far away. Bitcoin is set to grow, together with the Altcoins market, in a matter of days. Are you ready for the 2025 bull-market? Thank you. Your continued support is appreciated. We are winners and will continue to win regardless of what is takes. We will pour our hearts, our sweat and our blood into what we do and trust. If today I make the right decision, tomorrow I am taking a big bag of money home. The Cryptocurrency market is changing (saving) the world. The money monopoly is over. Money used to mean bondage, now, money is freedom. Namaste.

Market Overview: Bitcoin has formed a rounding top pattern, a classic bearish reversal structure, leading to a strong downtrend. The price has recently broken below key support levels, indicating further downside pressure. ? Key Technical Factors: ✅ Rounding Top Formation: The gradual loss of bullish momentum followed by an aggressive sell-off confirms a trend reversal. ✅ Accelerating Downtrend: Angled resistance lines highlight the declining bullish strength, with negative slope angles reinforcing downward momentum. ✅ Critical Support Zone: BTC is currently testing a key support area (~$74,000 - $72,000). A breakdown below this level could accelerate the decline. ? Potential Trade Setups: Bearish Scenario: If BTC breaks below the $74,000 support zone, we could see further downside towards $70,000 or even $65,000 in the short term. Bullish Reversal: A strong bounce from the current support level with increased volume could invalidate the bearish outlook, pushing BTC back toward $90,000+ resistance. ? Conclusion: Bitcoin's structure is bearish, with the rounding top pattern playing out as expected. Traders should watch for a confirmed support breakdown or bounce to determine the next move.
Bybit got hit with a serious security breach. $1.4 billion was hacked in Ethereum, which is a huge amount of ETH. 2 Apparently the trouble started with their cold wallet, where they keep a lot of their crypto offline. The investigation points to the North Korean Lazarus Group as the likely culprits, and it seems the attack originated from some malicious code within their wallet provider, Safe Wallet. Currently there's a big push to track down the stolen funds, and Bybit's even offering a bounty, but it's unlikely the funds will be recovered. It's important to understand that this wasn't necessarily a fault of Bybit's own security, but rather a problem with the wallet provider they were using. Bybit has reassured users that withdrawals remain unaffected and other cold wallets are secure. While investigations into the incident continue, early speculation about Bybit buying back ETH to cover losses, which briefly boosted ETH's price, was dispelled by CEO Ben Zhou. He clarified that a bridge loan covered 80% of the stolen ETH, and there are no plans for spot market purchases. The hackers now holds a substantial amount of ETH across multiple wallets, raising concerns about potential drops should they decide to sell, but this may occur gradually over many months or even years (since they didn't buy it / it will not matter at what price it is sold). This hack coincides with ETHDenver, a major Ethereum event typically associated with bullish market conditions and optimism. But overall, the outlook for Ethereum isn't looking as bright as it usually would be and this may lead to a further sell-off once more people catch on. _________________ BINANCE:ETHUSDT
