Bitcoin gains on weak US jobs data

In the current trading week, Bitcoin gained strong upside momentum, retested $28,500, and stayed firm above the $27,000 mark. Its rally was driven by a local decline in the US dollar amid deteriorating labor market conditions. These factors in turn raised expectations of an extended pause in the Fed's aggressive monetary policy, thus supporting risky assets, including BTC.

As of October 5th, Bitcoin and other digital assets have every chance of extending gains. However, investors are waiting for clearer and more comprehensive data that will provide a complete picture of what is happening. Therefore, we are witnessing a relative calm in the crypto market, which may soon turn into upside momentum.

US labor market as Achilles heel of Fed policy

In addition to on-chain data, a significant decline in the labor market is another factor suggesting a potential rally in the crypto market. Yesterday, investors were caught off guard when ADP reported that private job growth totaled 89,000, well below the 154,000 estimate. This indicator is not decisive in shaping a perception of the labor market but indicates a significant deterioration and a looming recession in the US economy.

Also, the ADP raised hopes of an extended pause in interest rate hikes. Moreover, today's data on jobless claims may heighten these expectations. US initial claims for unemployment benefits are expected to edge up to 211,000 versus 204,000 a week earlier. If the indicator meets the consensus estimate, risky assets will continue to recover, with the US dollar entering a deeper downward correction.

Analysts at Morgan Stanley note that the negative impact of a stronger dollar on the profits of American companies is becoming more apparent. Meanwhile, thirty-year Treasury yields crossed above 5% for the first time since the 2008 crisis, indicating high risks for the US economy. At the same time, the US national debt grew by a whopping $275 billion in just one day, setting a new record and triggering a spike in the price of credit default swaps.

BTC/USD Analysis

Yesterday, Bitcoin recovered slightly and approached the psychological level of $28,000. Today, BTC/USD is trading near the $27,600 mark, with daily trading volumes at around $10.5 billion. Trading activity is rather subdued as market participants are awaiting more comprehensive data confirming weakness in the labor market.

Today's report on jobless claims may provoke a rise in risky assets, including Bitcoin. If data meets forecasts, BTC/USD will most likely advance to the area of $28,000-$28,200. Technical indicators do not show significant changes compared to yesterday, which also confirms a lull in the cryptocurrency market.

At the same time, an active accumulation period continues. The number of BTC coins on exchanges is 2.9 million and continues to decrease. Meanwhile, the volume of Bitcoin held by long-term traders amounts to over 15 million coins. In conjunction with a constant rise in stablecoin volumes on exchanges, this may lead to another strong rally in BTC.

Conclusion

The current situation is extremely favorable to Bitcoin. The asset is being supported by macroeconomic statistics indicating a weakening US economy and a pause in the Fed's aggressive policy until at least December 2023. Thus, the most likely short-term scenario suggests a rise to $30,000. At the same time, more data is needed, indicating the formation of a stable upward movement with increasing volumes, independent of news factors.

Solana 加密貨幣 2025 年 4 月 25 日(星期五)盤中價格波動的技術分析。

儘管目前Solana加密貨幣處於強勢狀態,其價格在WMA(30 Shift 2)上方運行,但由於Solana價格走勢與隨機震盪指標之間出現背離,同時隨機指標也處於超買水平(80)以上,並正在準備跌至該水平以下,這些跡象表明在不久的將來,它可能會回調至145.25的水平。然而,只要下跌不跌破並收盤低於141.02的水平,Solana仍有可能再次增強,154.50的水平將嘗試向上突破,如果成功,Solana將繼續強勢至156.51的主要目標,如果增強的波動性和動能支持,159.60將成為下一個目標。

比特幣成功突破90,000美元,而以太坊在短短一天內上漲超過10%,回升至1,800美元。 主要的催化劑是昨天唐納德·特朗普的一則聲明,他明確表示解除傑羅姆·鮑威爾作為美聯儲主席的職位並不是他的目標。

比特幣重回88,000美元區域,但以太坊面臨挑戰 昨天美國交易時段中的拋售潮,再次因美國股票指數下跌引發,比特幣買家進行了抵消,而以太坊在低點附近卻顯得乏人問津。顯然,在關於美國經濟衰退即將到來的討論不斷增加,以及美國聯邦準備理事會主席傑羅姆·鮑威爾面臨繼續降息的壓力之下,對加密貨幣的需求仍然受到抑制。

4月21日加密貨幣市場交易建議

比特幣和以太坊在經歷整個周末的橫盤整理後,於今天的亞洲交易時段大幅上漲。 此次上漲是由於謠傳美國聯邦儲備委員會主席Jerome Powell可能被免職的消息引發的——這一事件將進一步加劇目前撼動美國經濟的動盪,導致美元出現強烈的拋售,進一步削弱了投資者對綠幣的信心。
