Current BTC Trend Analysis and Trading RecommendationsThe daily candlestick chart of BTC shows a three - day consecutive bearish retracement, having fallen back to the vicinity of the starting point of the previous pinbar rebound and currently remaining in a recent low - level sideways consolidation zone. However, the 4 - hour trend is pressured by the middle band of the Bollinger Bands, staying within a downward channel and forming a rebound - retracement wave pattern.
For short - term strategies, anticipate a further retracement first. Long positions should be initiated only after the support level is confirmed valid. This retracement represents a necessary consolidation phase before the bullish trend continues, and the current adjustment range does not pose a substantial threat of trend reversal to the overall uptrend. With the core upward trend intact and the direction remaining clear, BTC is expected to resume its upward momentum after a brief consolidation. The operational approach remains to go long on retracements.

Chart Patterns
BTC-----Sell around 105500, target 104000 areaTechnical analysis of BTC contract on June 17:
Today, the large-cycle daily level closed with a small positive line yesterday, and the K-line pattern was a single positive line with continuous negative lines. The price was consolidating at a high level, but the attached indicator was dead cross, and the closing line yesterday was a long upper lead, and the high point was near the 109,000 area. Why is it difficult to continue the rise? The price did not break the previous high point, the continuity was poor, the technical indicators were not obvious, etc., which are all reference data; the short-cycle hourly chart showed that the European session rose yesterday, and the US session continued to break the weekend correction high position. The price fell under pressure, the intraday high was 109,000 area, and the intraday retracement low was 106,000 area. There is no obvious direction at present, so the European and American sessions are the focus, so pay attention to the strength and weakness of the European and American sessions and the breakout situation, and then we will layout according to the real-time trend. The European and American sessions are currently showing a downward trend.
Today's BTC short-term trading contract strategy:
The current price is 105,500 and directly short, stop loss in the 106,000 area; the target is the 104,000 area;
USD/JPY: Yen Continues to Lose Ground Against the U.S. DollarOver the past three trading sessions, USD/JPY has risen by more than 1%, favoring the U.S. dollar, as the yen continues to weaken steadily. The bullish bias has persisted, supported by a rebound in dollar strength. The DXY index, which measures the dollar's performance against other major currencies, has been climbing in the short term and is once again approaching the 100-point mark, signaling growing confidence in the dollar’s movements. If this dollar strength persists, buying pressure in USD/JPY may become increasingly dominant.
Consistent Downtrend
Since early January of this year, USD/JPY has been consolidating consistent downward movements, shaping a solid bearish trend that has lasted through recent months. Currently, price action is once again testing a resistance zone, aligned with the downtrend line, but buying momentum has not been strong enough to break through. As a result, the dominant trend remains bearish, unless a significant bullish breakout manages to disrupt the pattern.
Neutrality in Indicators
At the moment, the RSI line is oscillating near the 50 level, while the MACD histogram remains close to the zero line. These patterns suggest a state of equilibrium between buying and selling pressure, which has led to a series of neutral movements. As long as both indicators remain in this range, it reflects a lack of dominance by either market force in the short term.
Key Levels to Watch:
145.470 – Short-Term Barrier: A level where potential bearish corrections could emerge, especially as price remains near the downtrend line under conditions of neutrality.
148.012 – Major Resistance: This corresponds to the recent multi-month highs. Sustained buying above this level could threaten the prevailing bearish trend.
142.367 – Critical Support: A level aligned with the lowest prices of recent months, which has been repeatedly respected, increasing its strength in the short term. A breakdown here could trigger a renewed bearish bias, reinforcing the ongoing downward trend.

DOW JONES: Will the 4H MA200 produce a rally?Dow is neutral on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 51.949, MACD = 356.820, ADX = 20.639), trading between its 4H MA50 and MA200 in the past 2 days. The price just hit the 4H MA200 for the 2nd time again at the bottom of the Channel Up. As long as it holds, the pattern can initiate the new bullish wave. We exepct it to repeat the +3.74% rise of the one before, TP = 43,550.

Crude oil---Buy near 71.00, target 76.00-79.00Crude oil market analysis:
We still buy crude oil in the recent daily line, but yesterday's crude oil daily line closed with a big negative line. Short-term crude oil is about to start repairing. The retracement during the repair is our opportunity to buy again. Crude oil follows the long-term trend. In addition, the war between Iran and Israel is a long-term support for crude oil purchases. If the situation escalates, crude oil may easily stand above the 100 mark in the later period. Consider buying crude oil at 71.00 today.
Fundamental analysis:
Yesterday, Iran and Israel began to bomb each other again, and the situation began to escalate.
Operation suggestions:
Crude oil---Buy near 71.00, target 76.00-79.00
CHFJPY - NeutralStory : We can see Bearish divergence on 1H time frame, which seems to be diluted followed by the consolidation region. however, if we look for the Bullish continuation signals we have Dow theory (HH and HLs) and bullish rectangular pattern which most likely shows upside control of Bulls. However, we also expect the market to break the rectangular pattern and thus we can see the bears in control.
Anticipate: we wait until market indicates a clear breakout either bearish of bullish with good engulfing candle.
Plan : we place a sell stop and Buy stop simultaneously on a chart with the R:R of 1:1 and 1:2. on whichever side market moves, we close the other trade accordingly.
however my 1st preference is bearish i.e breakout of rectangular pattern downside.
EUR USD Price has previously rejected from the resistance zone in DTF, and Also traded in an ascending triangle and also formed a double top pattern and held d bearish Trendline, which are all indications of a Bearish trend and movement as seen.
And priced moved perfectly in our Direction 🔥

Bitcoin in expected price zone, may go lower then UP ?
This is the old fractal chart and I have faded out the Fractal from 2013 to 2017,
Everything ese remains unchanged since Feb this year.
We hit the expected price range indicated by the circle and we are still in that area but I expect, once the month closes and we have a small red month candle, then we can start printing Green again.
The daily version of this chart shows us more local detail
We have left the area of resistance and so now, we have a free move BUT I think we may dip down to that line of support around 100K - 98K
This would not be a bad thing to do before the end of the month as it would cool off the PA / RSI and MACD and so give confidence to the serious investor while scaring the pats off the New guys and Gals.
The Daily MACD still has a way to dip before it may find support on the neutral line
This level could see PA near that line of support but it is possible for MACD to drop while PA ranges.
So we could see that Dip to line of support and it may offer the last 100K buying zone for a very long time ..
But we do have Stupid people trying to start WW3 with Lies and Greed - this could possibly destabilise things.
Be Cautious
SMCI: First 1D Golden Cross in years just formed.Super Micro Computer turned marginally bullish on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 55.363, MACD = 1.620, ADX = 16.124) but is essentially neutral, consolidating practically for the past month. They big news is that today it is forming the first 1D Golden Cross since June 1st 2020, the period after the COVID crash recovery. Trading inside a Channel Up and given the Inverse Head and Shoulders being formed, we expect the stock to target its 2.0 Fibonacci extension (TP = 83.00).

Analysis of the latest gold market trend on June 18:
📌 News analysis
Expectations of the Fed's rate cut continue to affect the market
The market's expectations for the Fed's rate cut in 2025 have increased, the US dollar index remains weak, and gold has gained support.
Key points of attention: This week's Fed interest rate decision and Powell's speech, if dovish signals are released (such as hinting at a rate cut in September), gold may rebound; if hawkish (postponing the rate cut), gold prices may be further under pressure.
The situation in the Middle East has escalated, and risk aversion has increased
After Israel attacked Iran's state TV station, Iran threatened "the largest retaliation in history", and the fire on the tanker in the Strait of Hormuz has exacerbated geopolitical risks.
Potential impact: If the conflict expands (such as Iran blocking the Strait or directly counterattacking), gold may rise rapidly; if the situation eases (negotiation signals), safe-haven buying may weaken.
US economic data and market sentiment
If recent US economic data (such as retail sales and unemployment rate) are weak, it may strengthen expectations of rate cuts and benefit gold; if the data is strong, it may suppress gold prices.
📊 Technical Analysis
🔹 Daily level: Bearish, but key support needs to be paid attention to
Trend review: Gold price fell after a high rise at the beginning of the week, falling below the 3400 mark and closing with a large negative line, indicating that bears are dominant.
Key signals:
The 5-day moving average turned downward, suppressing the rebound of gold prices in the short term.
The Bollinger Bands closed, indicating that the market has entered a shock consolidation phase. If it falls below 3350, it may accelerate downward to 3300.
Support level: 3360-3350 (if it stabilizes, it may rebound); resistance level: 3400-3410 (if it breaks through, it may test 3450).
🔹 4-hour level: Bearish, but there may be a rebound correction in the short term
Short-term moving average suppression (5-day and 20-day moving averages are glued at 3404-3409) constitutes strong resistance.
MACD crosses, but Stoch is oversold, and may correct and rebound in the short term, but if it fails to break through 3400, it may continue to fall.
Key support: 3360-3350 (if it falls below, it may drop to 3330-3300).
🔹 1-hour level: Weak shock, pay attention to the rebound strength
MACD crosses and shrinks, Stoch moves downward, and it is still weak in the short term.
Upper pressure: 3412 (MA60+MA30), if it fails to break through, it may continue to fall.
🎯 Today's operation strategy
📉 Short-term trading ideas: short-selling on rebounds is the main method, and long-selling on pullbacks is the auxiliary method
✅ Short-selling opportunities (selling at highs):
Entry area: 3395-3405 (if the rebound is blocked)
Target: 3360-3350
Stop loss: above 3410
✅ Long opportunities (buy low):
Entry area: 3360-3350 (if it stabilizes and rebounds)
Target: 3380-3400
Stop loss: below 3345
⚠️ Key risk warnings:
Market volatility may intensify before the Fed's decision. It is recommended to operate with a light position and strictly stop loss.
If the situation in the Middle East deteriorates, it may trigger a rapid rise in gold. Pay attention to real-time news.
📌 Summary: Gold is short-term dominant, but the key support (3360-3350) still has the possibility of a rebound. In terms of trading, it is recommended to take high-short as the main idea and low-long as the auxiliary idea, focusing on the Federal Reserve’s decisions and geopolitical trends.
GBPUSD may form a false break of supportGBPUSD has wasted the entire daily move (ATR) and is forming a false break of the mirror level support and trading range support. The price fell on the background of the dollar growth (which is trading on the background of the global downtrend)
Now, while the price is consolidating below the mirror level, sellers (physical persons) open deals. But, based on the situation and spent ATR when the price returns inside the range there will be a liquidation stage, which can provoke the price growth
The price fixing above 1.34437 may be the beginning of a pullback (trend growth).
Scenario: if the decline does not continue, and the price is able to consolidate above 1.3448, in this case we can expect a correction to 1.35, 1.353.
BTCUSD: 1D MA50 and 100k form a strong support base.Bitcoin has turned neutral again on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 45.783, MACD = 629.200, ADX = 20.857) and is about to get bearish as it hit its 1D MA50 today, erasing the gains of the last 3 days. The 1D MA50 has held two times since June 5th and another one might be what Bitcoin needs to justify the next rally. Besides this however, we got a heavier Support on the P1 trendline, which on the previous ATH (Dec 17th 2024) was a Resistance and since May 12th 2025 it turned into Support. Technically, as long as 100,000 holds, we expect a strong rebound into August that may repear the inverse of December 2024 - March 2025 (-31%) and rise by +31% (TP = 132,000).

Analysis of the latest gold trend on June 17:
1. Current market drivers
Weakened safe-haven demand: Gold prices fell from a nearly two-month high in the European session, mainly because the performance of global equity markets has actively weakened gold's safe-haven appeal.
Federal Reserve policy expectations: The market focuses on the FOMC decision on Wednesday. Although interest rates are expected to remain unchanged, traders are betting that the Fed may release dovish signals (such as further rate cuts in 2025) due to slowing inflation and economic cooling, suppressing the dollar and supporting gold.
Geopolitical risks: The escalation of the conflict between Iran and Israel and trade policy uncertainty still provide potential support for gold, but the market reaction is temporarily mild, limiting the rise in gold prices.
2. Key technical points
Short-term trend: Monday opened high and fell, breaking the 3,400 mark, forming a small-level top, and weakening in the short term.
Support level:
First support: 3383-3380 (intraday low)
Second support: 3360 (Daily MA5 and weekly key support)
Resistance level:
3403-3408 (anti-pressure area after breaking, short-term defense position)
3. Operation strategy
Short-term:
Short-selling on rebound: intervene when the 3403-3408 range is blocked, stop loss is set above 3410, target 3385-3360.
Long-term callback: if it falls to the 3360-3380 area and stabilizes (with daily MA5 support), you can lightly position long orders, stop loss below 3350, target 3400.
Mid-term:
Wait for the bottom to be confirmed (such as a double bottom or a large-volume rebound near 3360), and then arrange medium- and long-term long orders, looking towards 3500.
4. Risk Warning
FOMC Decision: If the Fed is unexpectedly hawkish (such as downplaying expectations of rate cuts), it may trigger a further correction in gold; a dovish stance may restart the rally.
Geopolitical Situation: If the conflict in the Middle East suddenly worsens, gold prices may rebound quickly, and positions need to be adjusted flexibly.
Key Operation Range Today
Short Entry: 3403-3408 (Stop Loss 3415, Target 3380)
Long Entry: 3380-3360 (Stop Loss 3355, Target 3400)
Gold (XAUUSD) – Demand Zone Holding, Silver Leading BreakoutGold has respected its demand zone near $3,367–$3,382 and is attempting to bounce higher. Importantly, Silver (XAGUSD in pink overlay) is leading the upside move, having broken out cleanly above $37.00 and still climbing. This confirms the bullish momentum across precious metals.
Geopolitical tensions, dovish Fed commentary, and risk-off market conditions continue to favor a move toward $3,451, $3,471, and possibly $3,495.
🔍 Technical Breakdown (4H)
Support Zone: $3,367–$3,382 (retest of broken resistance)
Bullish Structure: Rising lows, trendline holds, and higher timeframe support remains intact
Projected Targets:
🎯 TP1: $3,451 (recent high)
🎯 TP2: $3,471 (key extension)
🎯 TP3: $3,495 (top of range)
Stop Loss: Below $3,351 (invalidates demand structure)
🪙 Silver (XAGUSD) Overlay Insight:
Currently at $37.11+, showing leadership in the breakout.
Suggests gold will likely follow through — watch for Gold catching up.
🧠 Macro & Fundamental Context (June 17)
Bullish Drivers:
🔥 Ongoing Middle East war escalation (Iran-Israel, US troop buildup)
🏦 Dovish Fed tone, soft retail sales, rate cuts expected from Sept
🧾 Silver strength confirming demand across metals
Risks:
☮️ Unexpected ceasefire headlines could cause knee-jerk pullbacks
📈 Hot inflation data or hawkish Fed rhetoric could pressure upside
📅 Key Events to Watch:
FOMC members' speeches this week
US Core PCE inflation print
War headline velocity — particularly involving shipping or direct US-Iran confrontation
🧭 Strategy Suggestion:
Tactical Buy on Rejection Wick from current demand zone
Watch Silver momentum — if it breaks $37.50+, gold likely catches up fast
Consider scaling out around $3,451–$3,471 with final target near $3,495
USDCHF in DowntrendPending a confirmation from AB=CD harmonics pattern, we may see a downtrend continuation from the 4H bearish FVG and 1D bearish FVG overlap. However, if this FVG fails, we might see a reversal from the 0.8188 level, which would be a 0.718 FIB retracement level.
