BTC DAILY CHART – 60K

Having failed to renew 70K BTC is challenging 60K

This is the pivotal level as it wil dictate whether the current range is 60-70K or 55-65K

In any case the price action is disqppointing to the bull side as BTC has failed to benefit as a safe haven during this period of risk off.

Daily pattern is 5 red candles in a row, see how it ends on Sunday.

Refer to this chart for key levels.

Hard landing
Wikipedia
A hard landing occurs when an aircraft or spacecraft hits the ground with a greater vertical speed and force than in a normal landing.

Lousy Jobs Report Forces Fed to Reckon With Hard Landing
Policymakers have been focused squarely on inflation. Now they need to worry about the labor market, too.
By Nick Timiraos, Aug. 3, 2024 in WSJ

Now only need to define “normal landing”
– I think … it means that dishes and cups do NOT come tumbling out of the cupboards.

adding to “detailed preview”
–
Gooslbee, on Friday, p1ssed on the hair-on-fire screamers for intra-meeting 50pt cut

Aug 2 (Reuters) – Chicago Federal Reserve Bank President Austan Goolsbee said on Friday the U.S. central bank should move in a “steady” way, a mild pushback against the rush of market bets that the Fed will react to a report of weak July jobs data with a bigger-than-usual half-point rate cut in September.
“We never want to overreact to any one month’s numbers,” Goolsbee said in a Bloomberg TV interview. Even so, he said, “Our absolute goal now is we want to settle at something like full employment, not blow through normal and deteriorate.” …/..

I get a KICK out of some pundits screaming to kick the INTEL dog off the index

XAUUSD – Gold

If it manages to close tonight above 2420.00 ( and opens on Monday as well – so without a gap ), it will have another chance to test the previous high and continues up.

However, close below 2400.00 would be quite bearish…

I have mentioned a possibility of double top day ago, and Monday will give us the answer….

EURUSD Daily

End of week development

Support at 1.08500

Resistance at 1.09500 & 1.09650

I was asked about Bull/Bear Traps like a day ago, and here we had one…a Bear trap.

If you check weekly chart, you’ll see a very Bullish pattern creation and it should show its strength from the early beginning of the next week.

another anecdote
–
“Consumer insolvencies hit 4-year high in Canada as interest rates weigh on households
On average, 386 Canadians were filing for insolvency each day in the second quarter.”

IMO not exactly alarming to banks. Yet.

an anecdote
–
seeing headlines (by intersted parties) peddling the idea that “data centers are hungry for natural gas”
allegedly for “generating power” to support the 24/7 energy demands of hyperscalers.
