BTC Dominance at a Crossroads: What's Next?!Alright crypto fam, buckle up! We're diving deep into Bitcoin's market cap dominance on the 1-month chart, and I've spotted some critical junctures. Scenario A? A straightforward dip to the 53.11% support zone. But here's where it gets nuanced: Scenario B suggests a potential move down to 57.75% for a re-accumulation, followed by an epic rebound to challenge 63.62%—a level I'm eyeing for potential resistance before a final leg down to 53.11%. This is fascinating price action, and I want to hear your takes!

Gold: Next Big Move🌟 Gold: Preparing for the Next Big Move Gold has been consolidating between $4,260 and $4,170 since November 28, building pressure for its next major breakout. This tight range suggests accumulation, similar to previous setups before strong impulsive rallies. These weeks require patience, discipline, and solid risk management. Today is crucial: 📉 If the Fed cuts rates, gold could enter its final bullish rally of the year. 📊 Current market surveys show ~90% probability of a 25 bps cut, which historically boosts gold as real yields drop and safe-haven demand increases. Additional context: 🔥 Geopolitical tensions (Venezuela–USA, Middle East) continue to support a risk-off environment. 💵 The US Dollar Index (DXY) has been weakening ahead of the decision — another bullish factor for gold. 📈 CFTC data also shows increasing net long positioning in gold futures, signaling strong institutional interest. Gold is coiling. The breakout — when it comes — will be massive. OANDA:XAUUSD

FireHoseReel | Uniswap Is Approaching a Market Decision Zone🔥 Welcome To FireHoseReel ! Let’s jump into Uni Swap (UNI) market analysis. 👀 UNI 4H Overview UNI is currently trading inside a range box, with resistance at $5.858 and support at $5.445. A breakout from either side can lead to a major move. Looking at the chart history, every strong upside move has been followed by a deep correction, yet the impulses themselves have been very sharp and aggressive. 📊 Volume Analysis UNI volume on Binance is currently not very strong, so clear confirmation is still missing. However, when UNI starts printing high volume on Binance as well, it signals increased trader attention. A rise in volume would be a logical confirmation for the next price move. ✍️ UNI Trading Scenarios 🟢 Long Scenario: A breakout above $5.858 can activate our long trigger, but this setup requires a clear increase in buying volume for confirmation. 🔴 Short Scenario: A breakdown below the $5.44 support can push price toward the next demand zone. This move should be confirmed with a strong rise in selling volume, making it a valid short opportunity. 🧠 Protect your capital first. No setup is worth blowing your account. If risk isn’t controlled, profit means nothing. Trade with rules, not emotions.

FireHoseReel | BNB Daily Analysis #19🔥 Welcome To FireHoseReel ! Let’s dive into BinanceCoin (BNB) analysis. 👀 BNB 4H Overview BNB is currently trading inside a large 4H range box. A breakout from this box could trigger a major move. The $922 level stands as both the top of the range and the 38% Fibonacci retracement of the previous bearish leg. On the downside, $881 is acting as a freshly formed support zone. 📊 Volume Analysis Volume slightly increased during the attempt to break $922, but buyers lacked enough strength and selling pressure followed. A strong and sustained increase in volume will significantly raise the probability of a valid breakout. ✍️ BNB Trading Scenarios 🟢 Long Scenario 1: A confirmed breakout above $922 creates a solid long opportunity. Entry confirmation should come from a stable increase in buying volume. 🟢 Long Scenario 2: You may enter on the 4th test using a stop-buy order with a wider stop, targeting around RR = 2. ⚠️ This type of entry should be executed with maximum 0.5% risk per trade to avoid heavy losses. 🔴 Short Scenario: Since the broader structure behind price is strongly bearish, and the market previously experienced an aggressive drop from a distribution zone, a break below the newly formed $881 support can activate a short position, confirmed by rising sell volume. 🧠 Protect your capital first. No setup is worth blowing your account. If risk isn’t controlled, profit means nothing. Trade with rules, not emotions.

GBPUSD – Bearish BiasWe are calling a bearish bias on GBPUSD for today. Yesterday’s price action gave us a textbook sign of weakness: Price took the previous day’s high and low, cleared both sides of liquidity, and still closed bearish — and importantly, it closed outside the previous day’s low. This confirms a clear continuation narrative with institutional sell-side delivery likely. What this means: As long as GBPUSD trades below yesterday’s low, the market is signaling further downside expansion. Bearish Expectations: Potential continuation into lower liquidity pools Retracements into premium zones can offer high-probability sell setups. Bias remains bearish unless we close back above yesterday’s high Stay aligned with the flow. 👌

EUR/CAD: Dead Cat bounce?An interesting bearish setup may have emerged on EUR/CAD. After breaking below trend support on Friday, the pair has held beneath that level and is now consolidating tightly near the lows. Both the broken trendline and the October trough are acting as resistance, reinforcing the risk that any rebound may prove shallow. If downside momentum resumes, support layers around the 1.60 handle and the 200-day moving averages become natural targets for sellers. Matt Simpson, Market Analyst at City Index.

XAU/USD Daily Outlook – Tuesday Strategy The Tokyo session offered a decent buying opportunity, which I utilized by opening a position at 4175.5 and closing at 4185. This early move reinforces the view that intraday selling pressure remains limited, aligning with my mid-term bullish bias. Market Context Investors have largely priced in a Federal Reserve rate cut, but the real risk lies in the magnitude of the easing cycle. A milder-than-expected approach could disrupt linear bullish momentum and introduce volatility. With the Fed decision scheduled for Wednesday, the market is in a cautious stance, balancing technical setups with macro uncertainty. Technical Outlook Key Resistance: 4200 (psychological benchmark) Bullish Scenario: I’ll remain on the sidelines until we see a clean break above 4200. Once confirmed, I’ll engage long positions targeting 4219 as the next resistance zone. Bearish Scenario: Price action below 4176 could give sellers momentum, but I’ll avoid shorts unless 4164 is invalidated. If that happens, targets will be 4152 and 4135.

Indecision on the Chart: What These Candles Really MeanIndecision in the market? You're not alone. Every trader has faced those moments when the charts seem to scream confusion. But here's the thing: indecision candlestick patterns aren't just noise. They hold secrets that, when decoded, can give you the upper hand. Let's dive in and learn how to spot these patterns and use them to your advantage. Mastering Indecision Candlestick Patterns The most well-known indecision candles are the Doji, Spinning Top, and High Wave Candle. These candlesticks might seem tricky at first, but once you learn to recognize them and understand their context, they can serve as valuable tools in your trading strategy. Doji A Doji has a small body with nearly identical open and close prices, and long upper and lower wicks, indicating market indecision—neither buyers nor sellers gain control during that period. When to look for confirmation: A Doji alone isn’t enough to trade. Wait for confirmation from the next candle: a bearish one after an uptrend may signal a reversal, while a bullish one after a downtrend might indicate the start of a rally. Spinning Top A Spinning Top is an indecision candle with a small body and longer upper and lower shadows. It indicates uncertainty, with more volatility than a Doji. When to look for confirmation: A Spinning Top is more meaningful after a strong trend. Following an uptrend, it could signal weakening momentum. Wait for the next few candles to confirm the market’s direction. High Wave Candle The High Wave Candle is like the Spinning Top but with even longer wicks. It shows high volatility with no clear direction, as the price fluctuates widely but the open and close remain close, indicating indecision. When to look for confirmation: Use the High Wave Candle with trend analysis. If it appears during consolidation or after a major move, it may signal a breakout. As with other indecision candles, wait for confirmation before acting. Combining Indecision Candles with Indicators While indecision candle patterns can provide useful insights, they are most effective when combined with other technical indicators. Here are some ways to use them in combination: Moving Averages: Use moving averages (like the 50-period or 200-period) as a trend filter. If a Doji or Spinning Top forms above a moving average and the next candle confirms a reversal, it may signal trend continuation. Relative Strength Index (RSI) : If an indecision candle forms when RSI is at extreme levels (above 70 or below 30), it may signal an upcoming pullback or reversal. Volume: A high-volume candle following an indecision candlestick often confirms strong follow-through. Without volume, these patterns may be less reliable. Where to Avoid Using Indecision Candles While indecision candles are useful, there are some scenarios where relying on them without confirmation can be misleading: Choppy Markets: Indecision candles appear frequently and may not signal real reversals. During News Events: Sharp price spikes can create false indecision signals. Lack of Context: A Doji in sideways price action has less significance than one after a strong trend. Indecision candles signal uncertainty, but don’t act on them blindly. Always combine them with other analysis and make decisions based on your own judgment!

EURUSD Pullback analysis chart.EUR/USD – Structure & Trend Summary EUR/USD is moving inside a descending channel, respecting both the upper trendline (lower highs) and the lower trendline (lower lows). Price continues to react from the channel boundaries, confirming a bearish market structure. Recent price action shows: Rejections from the upper trendline, forming repeated HH (lower high attempts) but failing to break the bearish channel. Strong bearish impulses from each lower high, creating symmetrical downward legs. Support touches on the lower trendline, followed by corrective pullbacks. The latest swing has again rejected the upper channel line and is showing momentum toward the downside. Bias: Bearish Expectation: If structure continues to hold, EUR/USD may extend toward the lower trendline once again, aligning with previous –0.37% measured moves. Key Notes: Channel resistance remains strong. Market respecting HH → HL swings but still failing to break bullish structure. As long as price stays below the trendline, bearish continuation remains likely. What you think about EURUSD, write your feedback in comment section.

How to find an entry point within a trading range#XAUUSD TVC:GOLD OANDA:XAUUSD Gold rebounded as expected after retracing to around 4170. Those who followed this strategy and executed long trades may consider taking profits and exiting the market. From the daily chart, the short-term gold price is below the MA5 and MA10, indicating a weak market. If it cannot effectively break through the short-term resistance of 4185-4195 and hold above the daily MA5 and MA10, then gold still has room for a pullback. Meanwhile, looking at both the daily and weekly charts, in the absence of major news events, there is strong support at 4150-4140, which may trigger short-term fluctuations. The first pullback to this level could present an opportunity to go long on gold.
