An analyst has charted out a “dream scenario” path that Ethereum could follow, based on a technical analysis (TA) pattern in its 3-day price. Parallel Channel Could Chart Out What’s Next For Ethereum In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has talked about a dream trajectory that Ethereum could follow with respect to a Parallel Channel. The “Parallel Channel” here refers to a TA pattern that forms whenever an asset’s price trades between two parallel trendlines. The upper line of the pattern is assumed to be a source of resistance, so tops can be likely to occur during retests of it. Similarly, the bottom level can provide support to the price, helping it to rebound. …

Trump’s on-air denial of knowing Binance founder Changpeng Zhao “CZ” after pardoning him is stirring debate in Washington and across crypto markets. In a “60 Minutes” interview that aired on Sunday, President Donald Trump said he does not know Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, the Binance founder he pardoned last month. He defended the move as a response to what he called a Biden-era “witch hunt.” The exchange occurred during questioning by CBS’s Norah O’Donnell about potential conflicts associated with the Trump family’s expanding cryptocurrency business. “I don’t know who he is… I heard it was a Biden witch hunt,” Trump told O’Donnell, adding that his sons are involved in crypt…

The GBP/USD currency pair continued trading very low for most of the day on Monday. In the previous article, we mentioned that the "shutdown" in the US has now lasted 35 days, and that Republicans and Democrats are merely pretending to negotiate over funding. In reality, they are not. Interestingly, Donald Trump has already tried to pressure the Democrats by attempting to lay off several thousand government employees. His decision was blocked by the Supreme Court, which is expected to deliver another verdict in November regarding whether all of Trump's trade tariffs were lawful. If not, the Court must cancel them, leading to a "backlash" in the US with refunds of all cust…

The EUR/USD currency pair continued its downward movement on Monday, with no sign of a respite. However, we've been stating for over a month that the current decline in the EUR/USD pair is entirely illogical and can only be driven by technical factors on higher timeframes. On the weekly timeframe, the price has bounced off a long-term descending trend line, while on the daily timeframe it continues to show flat movement, with the price declining. The market continues to ignore a vast number of factors that are pressuring the US dollar. One of these factors is the "shutdown," which has recently been somewhat overlooked. To be precise, it has not been "forgotten," but rathe…

GBP/USD 5M Analysis The GBP/USD currency pair on Monday attempted for the third time to break through the updated support level at 1.3115. There were again no grounds for the decline of the British currency, and during the day, only the manufacturing activity indexes for October were published in the UK and the US. The British index was released in its second estimate, generating little interest among traders. The US ISM index, released in a single estimate, provided a resonant figure but failed to spark any interest from traders. The US dollar had every reason to lose at least 50-60 pips on the ISM report yesterday, yet the expected decline did not occur. From a tech…

EUR/USD 5M Analysis The EUR/USD currency pair traded with less than 40 pips of volatility on Monday. This article could almost end here, as it is clear that no macroeconomic report had any impact on the market. The US dollar did not weaken once again, even when it had every reason to, thus continuing the completely illogical downward movement. Let's take a closer look at the ISM manufacturing activity index for the US, which was the most important report from yesterday. Traders expected the business activity index to rise to 49.5 points for October. In reality, it dropped to 48.7 points. The report itself was significant, and its results were resonant; however, we ess…

November has kicked off on a negative note for crypto prices, with Bitcoin (BTC) briefly dipping toward $105,000 on Monday. This decline has sparked a renewed sense of bearish sentiment among investors, and experts caution that conditions could worsen in the coming days. November Deadline Approaches Market expert CryptoBirb recently expressed concerns on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), noting that the market is already ten days into a bearish cycle. According to CryptoBirb, diving into on-chain data, the more alarming the picture appears. CryptoBirb’s analysis begins with cycle peak data: it has been 1,078 days since the low in November 2022, which is 101.2…

Clients using Ripple Prime can now dive into spot trading with a wide selection of cryptocurrencies. This shift marks a new chapter for Ripple’s institutional offering, which previously focused on over-the-counter services and derivatives. Now, Ripple Prime is stepping out from the background and into the main arena of live crypto markets.

Animoca Brands, a crypto gaming heavyweight based in Hong Kong, has announced plans to go public in the United States by merging with Currenc Group. The move is structured as a reverse merger, with Currenc set to acquire 100 percent of Animoca’s shares. Once the dust settles, Animoca’s shareholders would hold around 95 percent of the newly formed public company. The deal is targeting a 2026 close, pending approval from both shareholders and regulators. Speed Over Tradition Rather than go through the longer process of a traditional IPO, Animoca is opting for a quicker route to the Nasdaq. This reverse merger gives them a faster track while still unlocking access to U.S. c…

On November 2, 2025, crypto analyst Ignas | DeFi distilled crypto’s current standoff into a clean ledger of pros and cons. The Bearish Case For Crypto The first bear pillar is the “AI bubble” overhang. Late-October headlines crystallized the debate as Nvidia briefly breached a $5 trillion market value, a milestone that sharpened concern that equity valuations tied to AI infrastructure spending may be running ahead of realized returns. Point two—“bullish news fail to pump”—was on display as “Uptober” ended with a whimper for the crypto market. Despite intermittent policy tailwinds and strong ETF inflows mid-month, both Bitcoin and Ethereum faded into month-end, and US sp…

A sudden disclosure by Binance founder Changpeng Zhao set off a sharp move in Aster’s token price and trading patterns. According to reports, Zhao said he personally owns just over 2 million ASTER tokens — a holding that has been valued at about $2.5 million in coverage of the event. That admission prompted a rapid buying wave and heavy media noise, with traders and observers trying to sort what the move means for the project and the broader4 market. Aster Trading Activity On Fire As Price Rises Based on reports, ASTER climbed from roughly $0.91 to a peak near $1.26 on the day the disclosure hit newsfeeds. Volume also surged: one snapshot put 24-hour turnover at aroun…

As part of the campaign to force Democrats into concessions, Donald Trump has already attempted to dismiss 4,000 federal employees. The US President continues to blame Democrats for the halt in government operations, although any person with a basic understanding of the issue can see that the problem does not lie with the Democrats. Fortunately, the attempt at mass dismissal failed. Federal Judge Susan Illston blocked Trump's attempt to fire the 4,000 employees, siding with the unions that brought a lawsuit against the president's actions. Judge Illston also indicated that any future attempts by the president to fire anyone without just cause would have the same outcome. …

As I mentioned in the previous review, the majority of Americans blame the Republicans and Donald Trump personally for the "shutdown." Many people in the US are currently opposing Trump and his policies. It suffices to recall the "No Kings" rallies, occurring roughly every two months, which clearly hint that someone fancies themselves a king. Therefore, it comes as no surprise to me that about 46% of Americans blame Trump for the "shutdown," while only 37% blame the Democrats. Consequently, the Democrats' position in negotiations is more advantageous than the Republicans'. The absolute majority of respondents have also reported being very concerned about the "shutdown." B…

For the 34th day in a row, the "shutdown" in America continues, which was "supposed to be resolved in 2 weeks." Democrats and Republicans continue to hold formal votes in the Senate, where no one seems willing to concede. Therefore, each new meeting may take place in a friendly atmosphere over coffee and pastries, with the outcome known in advance. Donald Trump does not seem concerned about the pause in government and state operations, and the lack of significant economic reports appears to work in his favor. At least for the dollar, which, despite the "shutdown," saw demand increase throughout October. For President Trump, the "shutdown" might only be advantageous if the…

As the new week begins, the Japanese yen continues its negative trajectory, remaining under pressure from last week. Last Thursday, the Bank of Japan left interest rates unchanged despite objections from two board members—Naoki Tamura and Hajime Takata—who advocated for a hike to 0.75%. In the subsequent press conference, Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda emphasized that there are no preliminary plans for the timing of the next interest rate hike. Additionally, Japan's new Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi supports an approach to stimulate the economy, advocating for substantial budget allocations to counter inflation and boost economic growth. This reinforces expectations th…

On Tuesday, November 4, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) will conclude its next-to-last meeting of the year. There is no doubt that the central bank will take a wait-and-see approach; this is the basic and most anticipated scenario. AUD/USD traders already priced in this scenario last week, when key third-quarter Australian CPI data was published. All components of the report came in positive, reflecting an acceleration in inflation. Additionally, the preceding statements from the Reserve Bank of Australia's head were also hawkish—at least in the context of the likely outcomes of the November meeting. Therefore, the formal results of the meeting are predetermined: t…

The European Central Bank, as expected, kept interest rates unchanged at its meeting last week. No new forecasts were presented, so the main criterion for interest rate forecasting —namely, the inflation forecast —remains the same. ECB President Lagarde noted a decrease in several risks to the economy, and the tone of the accompanying statement is assessed as neutral, with the interest rate forecast remaining unchanged—the ECB has completed its easing cycle and will not change the rate at least until the middle of next year. Immediately before the meeting, a report on Q3 GDP was published, showing better-than-expected results. Since the ECB had anticipated zero growth in …

Aster (ASTER) has seen heightened volatility in recent sessions as broader market selling pressure weighs on altcoins and investor sentiment remains fragile. Yet in the midst of this downturn, the token drew unexpected attention when Changpeng Zhao (CZ) — Binance’s former CEO — posted on X that he personally bought ASTER using his own funds directly on Binance. The comment immediately sparked debate across the crypto community, with some viewing it as a confidence signal and others treating it with caution given current market conditions. However, not all major traders share the bullish view. Shortly after CZ’s post, notable on-chain whale 0x9eec increased a bearish pos…

Understanding Forex Options Defense Paper Trading Options – a good start as any In the world of forex trading, not all market moves are driven by economic data or central bank policy. Sometimes, the real action happens around key options strike levels, where large institutional traders defend or attack prices to protect massive positions. Understanding how this process works can offer valuable insight and potential trading opportunities for those who know what to look for. The Role of Traditional Currency Options in the Spot Market While many new retail traders think of “options” as binary bets, traditional currency options, not binaries, are the ones that influence the…

Dogecoin has spent the past several days locked in a tight decline that has seen it push lower. The meme coin has struggled to break above $0.19, slipping between $0.17 and $0.18 in what could be described as another consolidation phase. This movement follows a series of attempts to recover losses in October, which failed with a rejection at $0.205. The current chart setup has attracted interest among traders who believe a major rally move is close. A technical analysis posted on the social media platform X highlights what could happen once this slow decline period comes to an end. Dogecoin Holds Its Ground In A Tight Range Technical analysis shows that Dogecoin’s pric…

The nearly 100-year-old Horne copper smelter. Glencore photo Glencore is planning to wind down its Horne Smelter — Canada’s largest copper-metal producing plant — citing steep environmental upgrades and operational costs, Reuters reported on Monday. The Swiss commodities giant currently operates the Horne and the Canadian Copper Refinery (CCR), both located in the province of Quebec. The Horne smelter processes concentrates to make copper anode, which is then turned into cathode by CCR. While no production figures have been published for these assets, industry sources cited by Reuters have pegged their annual output at more than 300,000 tonnes. Much of the cop…
