FameEX Weekly Market Trend | May 13, 2024
2024-05-13 21:34:15
1. BTC Market Trend
From May 9 to May 12, the BTC price swung from $60,235.31 to $63,450.21, a 5.34% range. Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson released a video on the X platform accusing Biden of harming the US cryptocurrency industry. In recent years, the Biden administration has restricted access to bank accounts, tightened regulatory oversight by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and recently implemented regulatory policies that obstruct legislative processes related to cryptocurrency. On May 11, Trump declared his support for cryptocurrencies, criticizing the Biden administration. If Trump were to win the presidential election this year, market expectations would likely drive this bull market cycle and Bitcoin prices to continue rising. On May 10, the EU considered incorporating cryptocurrencies into a €12 trillion investment market, a move whose impact could surpass that of US ETFs.
On May 13, CME’s “FedWatch” revealed that the probability of the Fed maintaining interest rates in June is 96.5%, with only a 3.5% chance of a 25 basis point cut. Looking ahead to August, the likelihood of unchanged rates is 74.6%, with a 24.6% chance of a cumulative 25 basis point cut and only 0.8% probability of a cumulative 50 basis point cut.
In summary, considering the annual timeframe as the unit for long-term investment, coupled with the upcoming launch of a US Ethereum ETF, potential rate cuts in the US, and a potential Trump victory, this cryptocurrency bull market is likely to continue into next year. What sets this bull run apart is the substantial influx of new funds into the crypto market (including US and Hong Kong Bitcoin ETFs, as well as the upcoming US Ethereum ETF and European investment market funds). The key factor driving BTC’s continuous rise is the sustained influx of incremental funds, as BTC’s price and the required incremental capital have a nonlinear relationship. This is the fundamental logic behind BTC’s spot price in this bull market not being capped at $73,718.41.
Viewing the medium-term investment horizon from monthly to yearly, the months of March, April, and May represent the mid-term oscillation phase of the bull market. Short-term investment refers to holding and related transactions within a week to a month, while the market analysis report provided here falls into the category of ultra-short-term investment services. Ultra-short-term trading is highly challenging due to its inherent volatility, underscoring FameEX’s commitment to providing top-notch service to its clients backed by solid research capabilities.
From May 9 to May 12, according to the daily chart, BTC spot prices displayed minimal volatility as predicted last Thursday. It’s unlikely that significant fluctuations will occur on May 13 and May 14. However, the release of US economic data on Wednesday, May 15—including April’s non-seasonally adjusted CPI, April’s seasonally adjusted CPI, April’s non-seasonally adjusted core CPI, and April’s core CPI—could lead to market movements if results deviate significantly from expectations. Crafting corresponding ultra-short-term trading strategies and managing positions accordingly is advised.
Mike McGlone, a Bloomberg Intelligence strategist, stated a decline in the Bitcoin/gold cross index compared to the S&P 500. Following a record influx of funds into US spot Bitcoin ETFs in January, the subsequent decrease in fund inflows might impact risk assets. While benchmark cryptocurrencies hit highs in the first quarter of this year, Bitcoin has yet to surpass its peak compared to gold and the S&P 500 in 2021.
Technical analysis suggests a high probability of BTC spot prices declining to around $54,000 in May or June, with buy orders at $52,800 still advisable. Those with moderate positions might consider placing short-term bottom-fishing buy orders at around $54,050 and $50,100. If market panic ensues, prices could potentially drop below $50,000. Subsequently, BTC spot positions acquired below $61,550 can be gradually sold with limit orders at $77,500, $72,500, and $67,200. Following the release of US economic data on Wednesday, if the cryptocurrency market surges, those who bought below $61,550 could secure at least a 9.18% (67200/61550-1) profit. Even in the event of minor or continued narrow-range consolidation, maintaining a relaxed mindset is key, as significant market movements will gradually realize profits from our buy and sell orders.
The Bitcoin Ahr999 index of 1.2 is below the DCA level ($66,140) but over the buy-the-dip level ($40,500). Therefore, it may be a good time to put the dollar-cost average into mainstream cryptocurrencies.
