BTCUSD WEEKLY  CHART – Not a Safe haven
One thing is clear and that is that cryptos are not acting like safe havens.
With a 21% fall from its record high to today.s low, BTCUSD needs to get back above 88927 to avoid exposing a true lack hole on the downside.
When looking at BTC ae an observer ae I don’t trade it, I prefer to look at 10 big figure ranges using pivotal (psychological) levels as the volatility makes technical levels eawy t get broken. .
So it is either 85-95k or 80-90k or 80-100k
XAUUSD DAILY CHART – Looking tired?
Looking at this chart and trying to be objective, it has taken a lot of effort just to extend the record high from 2942 to 2956.

In this regard,
–     Would need to establish 2950 as support to send a signal for a run at the –
–     Would need to move below 2879 (last week’s low) to break the 9 week upo pattern,
Otherwise, it is just consolidation.
