The current geopolitical situation between the US and Iran remains tense, with Trump unilaterally announcing an extension of the ceasefire and maintaining the maritime blockade, waiting for Iran to submit a unified negotiation plan. Iran has explicitly denied requesting an extension of the ceasefire and ultimately decided not to participate in the US-Iran talks on the 22nd. The divergent stances of both sides significantly impact the geopolitical risk sentiment, repeatedly disturbing global financial markets. Meanwhile, expectations for Federal Reserve monetary policy have risen again, with Fed Chair nominee Waller stating the need to develop a new framework to address inflation. Trump also expressed a clear stance on the prospect of rate cuts. Market expectations for interest rate paths are swinging, with the US dollar index fluctuating and strengthening, US Treasury yields experiencing increased volatility, further suppressing risk appetite for major assets. As a result, spot gold and silver continue to decline, while international oil prices rebounded sharply supported by geopolitical tensions. The three major US stock indices all closed lower, with tech stocks generally weakening. The crypto market is following traditional risk assets into a consolidation pattern, with Bitcoin maintaining a range-bound tug-of-war throughout the day, and Ethereum also fluctuating within a narrow range, unable to form a clear directional trend. Market sentiment remains cautious. Under the dual pressures of geopolitical uncertainty and Fed policy expectations, crypto funds are in a wait-and-see mood, likely to continue oscillating in a consolidation phase in the short term. Close attention should be paid to developments in the US-Iran situation and monetary policy signals, waiting for the market to choose a breakout direction before following. Yibo will continue to monitor the implementation of Fed policies, institutional fund flows, and on-chain data changes, providing real-time updates on layout strategies and target dynamics.

Bitcoin started yesterday’s session from a low of 75,400 and moved upward in a volatile manner. In the afternoon to evening, it briefly surged to test resistance at 76,800 before facing selling pressure and pulling back. Early morning, it dipped to support at 74,700 and then stabilized and rebounded. Currently, it is trading within a narrow range around 75,800. The daily chart shows a high-position doji star, with increasing battle between bulls and bears. Coupled with ongoing news disturbances, the short-term trend remains a high-level tug-of-war, with no clear directional breakout. Focus should be on whether the 76,800 resistance zone can be broken.

Ethereum rebounded in a volatile manner from 2,298 in the early hours yesterday. In the evening, it briefly spiked to 2,336 but faced resistance and pulled back. Afterwards, it entered a fierce tug-of-war between bulls and bears, fluctuating repeatedly within the 2,285-2,325 range. From a technical perspective, short-term moving averages are tightly tangled, with highs and lows gradually converging. RSI and MACD are both neutral and sluggish, indicating a typical high-level convergence and consolidation pattern. Currently, the bulls and bears are balanced, with no clear trend momentum. The key level to watch is the 2,350 resistance zone. Before breaking through, it’s advisable to trade within the range, buying low and selling high, and follow the trend if a breakout occurs.
