Banks Keep Purging, Bitcoin Takes a Breath After CFTC Complaint Against Binance

Validated Individual Expert

What Market Phase are we entering into has been the introductory question for our last appointments. Are we going to listen to the Bulls or the Bears? Are we going to see a Bull Market or a Bear Market?

Welcome to Surfing the Market, we are already at our 47th appointment and I hope that with these easy tech analysis we have helped you in some forms, even just to evaluate different market perspectives.

Let’s start from our usual weekly perspective

Banks keep defaulting, and the last week was the time for the uncertainty towards Deutsche Bank. Anyway, the key news is the CFTC going against Binance about Transparency, Cooperation, Trading and Licences.

You can have a look to CZ’s answer here.

What do I expect from a daily perspective?

While the Yellow area played a perfect role as a support, the red line played as a perfect resistance level for the price that paid some time trying to overcome it and the going down likely because of the CFTC news towards Binance’s attitudes.

DXY is decreasing and the 102 points level is at a risk.Mass media are trying to put some bad light on Russia and the new alliance between China and Russia, while USA banks keep failing.

Both of the examined Moving Averages (50 and 200 periods) are now below the price action: the red (50MA) is growing and the blue line keeps its steady growth.From the Moving averages I do not expect huge signals for the moment, even if the 50MA is now in the area of the Yellow support, still too far from the price action to give some indications.

Ichimoku Clouds are showing weakness in the coming days as the cloud reverses and in becomes thinner in the following days.

And now, what from a Volume perspective?

Volumes have decreased in the last days while they have been consistent in the previous days. I think that we need a couple of days more to address more ideas to the BTC trend, in order to understand how the Binance-CFTC thing will be solved and see if other banks are going to default.

What to observe particularly?

Deutsche Bank is still in a descending trend and we will need to see if any Central Bank will inject liquidity to save it, or not.

  • Vitalik: PoW is also quite centralized. PoW is just a temporary phase before moving to PoS

    Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, stated on social media that PoW is also quite centralized. It just hasn't been discussed too much because everyone knows it's just a temporary stage before transitioning to PoS. This doesn't even involve how to potentially avoid ASICs, simply because the upcoming PoS transition means there's no incentive to build them.

  • If a Hong Kong spot virtual asset ETF is sold at a premium, it can be converted into Hong Kong dollars on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange

    Currently only a few Hong Kong brokers with virtual asset retail licenses can subscribe to the Hong Kong Bitcoin ETF through the new share subscription method (PD/distributor), and after the ETF officially enters the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, all hundreds of Hong Kong brokers and banks can purchase it. The approved virtual asset ETF adopts the performance of the ChiNext CF Bitcoin Index (Asia-Pacific closing price), so the profit and loss risks of cash subscription for Bitcoin ETF are basically the same as those of directly buying Bitcoin. As the exchange ratio between Bitcoin and Bitcoin ETF is fixed, if physical subscription is used in the IOP stage, that is, Bitcoin is used to subscribe to Bitcoin ETF, the relevant ETF can be exchanged for Hong Kong dollars in the exchange if it is sold at a premium after listing, and then buy back Bitcoin at the same time to earn the price difference between on-exchange and off-exchange.
