#PONSLaunchesCyclicalBuyback $PONS is stuck in a range, and right now the market isn't giving traders a clear direction.
The daily and weekly structures remain range-bound, while RSI around 40 and relatively low volume point to limited conviction.
That makes the 0.55–0.57 demand zone the area I'd be watching most closely.
But I wouldn't treat the zone alone as an entry.
The market still needs confirmation:
A clear rejection.
A bullish impulse.
An accumulation candle.
Or rising volume.
If buyers establish support there, 0.68 becomes the first level to watch, followed by the 0.78 resistance if momentum strengthens.
On the other hand, a daily close below $0.49 would invalidate the current range structure and shift the setup toward a bearish trend.
The bigger lesson applies across DeFi.
A support zone only matters when there is enough demand and liquidity to defend it.
On the TON Blockchain, $GRAM supports the wider ecosystem while STONfi provides liquidity infrastructure for assets when users need to enter, exit, or swap.
Don't trade the zone just because price reached it. Wait for the market to show you who's actually defending it.

#BrentTops$106USTalksStall
Brent above $106 and WTI near $94 show just how sensitive the oil market has become to geopolitical headlines. But the bigger story is no longer simply about war risk.
Oil is being pulled between two competing forces: geopolitical uncertainty around the Strait of Hormuz and signs that physical energy flows are gradually recovering.
Brent’s move above $106 followed by a pullback toward $100 is an important reminder that a headline-driven spike is not automatically a confirmed breakout.
The key question is simple: can buyers turn resistance into support?
Brent: $106 Is the Key Zone
The $106 area has become an important technical decision point.
A sustained move above $106, followed by a successful retest, would provide stronger evidence that buyers are willing to defend higher prices.
Above that, $108.83 is another important reference, followed by the psychological $110 level.
On the downside, $103–$104 could become the first area to watch during a pullback, while $100–$101 remains a much more important psychological and structural zone.
A move back below $100 would raise questions about how much of the geopolitical premium is still embedded in crude.
WTI: Watching $95
WTI around $94 puts $95 directly in focus.
A sustained move above $95 could strengthen the recovery structure, with $96 becoming the next area to monitor.
But rejection around $95 could bring $92–$93 back into focus, while a deeper move toward $90–$91 would indicate further weakness.
The Fundamental Battle
The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the biggest variables for global energy markets. Any meaningful disruption could affect crude, LNG, refined products, freight and insurance costs.
At the same time, improving physical flows could limit the ability of geopolitical headlines to create a lasting supply shortage.
That creates a market with two opposing narratives:
Geopolitical escalation → higher risk premium.
Supply recovery → pressure on that premium.
The next major move will depend on which narrative gains control.
Why It Matters Beyond Oil
Sustained crude prices above $100 could create another challenge for global markets by increasing transportation, energy and production costs.
If higher oil prices persist, they could complicate the inflation outlook and influence expectations around monetary policy.
That means oil traders are not the only ones watching.
Treasury yields, the dollar, equities, gold and crypto can all react to a meaningful change in energy prices.
The Levels to Watch
Brent: ~$106 decision zone
Brent: $108.83 breakout reference
Brent: $110 psychological level
Brent: $100–$101 major support
WTI: ~$95 decision zone
WTI: $96 upside reference
WTI: $90–$91 deeper support
The important distinction is between a price spike and a confirmed breakout.
Until Brent can establish support above the major resistance zones, the market remains highly headline-sensitive.
For traders, the most useful signal may not be the next geopolitical headline. It may be whether crude can actually hold higher levels while physical supply continues to recover.
Oil is no longer moving on one narrative.
It is a battle between geopolitical risk, physical supply and market positioning — and the next confirmed move could tell us which force is currently winning.
