Log in to today's North American session Market wrap for September 10 Tensions around the world keep increasing, with Russia sending 19 drones overnight to attack Poland from Belarus. A consequent diplomatic shower followed with the usual condemnations. However, what attracted attention was the "Here we go" post from US President Trump, awakening Markets, particularly in the precedingly dormant US Oil. A popular American conservative activist, Charlie Kirk, was also tragically shot at a rally in another round of political madness. Between a revolution in Nepal and France going through gigantic protests against French President Macron, economic uncertainty and a flood …

The pound continues to struggle to find direction against the dollar. The pair is trading between the middle and upper lines of the Bollinger Bands on the D1 timeframe, that is, within the 1.3490–1.3580 range. Buyers continue to test the upper limits near 1.36, while sellers attempt to secure the price below 1.3500. However, as soon as the price approaches either boundary of the channel, traders lock in profits and the pair returns to prior levels. Breaking out of this "vicious circle" will require a major trading catalyst to tip the balance in favor of either GBP/USD bulls or bears. That is why traders are now focused on the US CPI (to be published at the start of the US…

For now, Bitcoin continues to react positively to US inflation data, preparing to enter a new bull cycle. However, one of the key crypto exchanges published a report yesterday warning that the BTC market has matured significantly—meaning the times of easy money for corporate buyers of BTC and other altcoins are over. The report notes that simply copying the BTC strategy of companies like Strategy is no longer enough to secure high returns on BTC investments. While it's positive that more and more such firms are entering the market, the odds of seeing huge price swings are becoming less realistic. The report emphasizes that institutional investors now conduct much more t…

Yesterday, US stock indices closed higher. The S&P 500 rose by 0.85%, while the Nasdaq 100 added 0.72%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by 1.36%. Relatively moderate inflation readings, combined with new signs of weakening employment, triggered a rally on Wall Street amid speculation that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates for the first time this year. The long-awaited consumer price index showed that although inflation still exceeds the Fed's 2% target, it remains under control. At the same time, weekly jobless claims surged to their highest level in nearly four years, reinforcing bets on a rate cut next week to counter the rapid slowdown in the lab…

The euro was well executed today through the Mean Reversion strategy. Due to low market volatility, there was no opportunity to trade via Momentum. The decline in the eurozone trade balance surplus pressured the euro, but buyers took advantage of the moment to increase long positions. Overall, the U.S. dollar will continue to weaken against risk assets. It is clear that the dollar is under pressure from the relatively dovish policy expected from the Federal Reserve in the near future. In the second half of the day, the Empire Manufacturing Index will be released, but it is unlikely to shift market sentiment in favor of the dollar. The market appears to have already priced…

Crypto is holding on steady amid big stories on Nvidia monopoly business under fire in China, nerves around the FOMC Meeting, and the winding down of the SEC Gemini lawsuit. BTC ▲0.79% is sitting pretty near $116K. ETH ▲0.04%, although dropped from $4,759 last week, is holding above $4,500, as the market is waiting. bitcoinPriceMarket CapBTC$2.31T24h7d1y Over in China, regulators are challenging what many believe is an unfair grip—that is, the Nvidia monopoly business model, especially following its Mellanox takeover in 2020. Because this Nvidia Monopoly Business setup affects GPU supply, many AI crypto projects and miners could feel the squeeze. Decentralized alternat…

Yesterday, the euro made an impressive jump upward by 105 pips, reaching the upper boundary of the price channel precisely at 1.1879. Economic data out of Europe and the US were solid: in Europe, the key figures were the ZEW Economic Sentiment Index, while in the US, industrial production, retail sales, and Q3 GDP forecast (3.4% vs. 3.1% previous estimate). If it weren't for market nervousness about the expectation of three Fed rate cuts, the dollar would have definitely strengthened. This time, however, even a slight increase in European data (sentiment for September 26.1 vs. 25.1 in August; July industrial production +0.3% vs. -0.6% in June) was met with extra enthusi…

Anglo American (LON: AAL) will shed more than 200 jobs from its Queensland coal division as weak prices and high state royalties hit profits. The company confirmed the cuts would fall across its Brisbane office and mine sites, with many roles to go through voluntary redundancies. Production will not be affected, it said. Workers at the Grosvenor underground mine near Moranbah, which has remained shut since a fire in June 2024, are among those offered redundancies. The Australian Financial Review reported that close to 300 roles would be eliminated, with Grosvenor the main focus. Anglo, the world’s third-largest seaborne exporter of steelmaking coal, said the d…

Dogecoin (DOGE) has surged 13% this week, climbing to $0.282, despite heavy selling pressure from investors. Over $1.63 billion worth of DOGE, nearly 5.81 billion tokens, have been moved to exchanges in September, signaling profit-taking and caution among traders. Long-term holders, who had previously offered stability, are also shifting assets according to the coin days destroyed (CDD) metric, often a sign of potential downside risk. However, the bullish rally remains strong, mainly driven by optimism about a possible spot Dogecoin ETF launch. This regulatory milestone, along with increasing corporate treasury use and payment integrations, has kept DOGE on the minds o…

The United States is ramping up efforts to secure critical minerals outside China’s control, backing the expansion of a copper and cobalt facility in Zambia. The US Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) awarded on Thursday a $1.4-million grant to Metalex Africa, a subsidiary of US-based Metalex Commodities, to finance a feasibility study for expanding the company’s Kazozu mine in Zambia’s North-Western province. The study will assess whether the mine can produce up to 25,000 additional metric tonnes of copper and cobalt concentrates annually. USTDA officials said the initiative is designed to link Metalex with American buyers while opening opportunities for US…

While tokens like XRP dominate headlines amid rising ETF approval speculations, the Cardano price is also gaining attention as market conditions slowly recover from bearish trends. New data from Changelly, a crypto exchange, has suggested that Cardano could be gearing up for a massive breakout.

Why A $100 Cardano Price Remains A Distant Goal Cardano’s price action has generated significant interest in recent months, as analysts from Changelly attempt to project its next big move. According to their forecasts, ADA remains a relatively low-priced cryptocurrency compared to some …

Goldman Sachs has lowered its global copper supply forecast for both 2025 and 2026, citing recent disruptions at the world’s second-largest mine. Production at the Grasberg mine in Indonesia has been under suspension since Sept. 8 after a landslide unleashed 800,000 tonnes of mud into the Block Cave area, trapping seven workers and causing severe damage across the mine’s infrastructure. US-based Freeport McMoRan (NYSE: FCX), the mine’s operator, immediately halted mining activities to prioritize the rescue of the mine workers, and to date has recovered two bodies. As the search continues, the company has declared force majeure and is investigating the incident. …

Macroeconomic Report Analysis: There are only a few macroeconomic reports scheduled for Friday, but some of them may trigger a market reaction. First and foremost, attention should be paid to the Core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index and the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index. Many consider the PCE index to be the Federal Reserve's favorite inflation indicator, though we don't necessarily agree. Besides, significant deviations from forecasts for the PCE are extremely rare. Thus, in both cases, a market reaction is likely only if the actual readings significantly diverge from expectations. Fundamental Events Analysis: Among Friday'…

Aster Exchange said it has reimbursed users after a sudden price glitch sent the XPL perpetual contract soaring and wiped out leveraged positions. According to reports, the contract’s mark price briefly decoupled from markets on September 25, 2025, jumping from about $1.30 to nearly $4 on Aster while XPL elsewhere stayed near $1.30. The mismatch forced mass liquidations on the platform. Aster Issues Refunds According to Aster’s public messages and follow-up reports, the exchange moved fast to cover losses. Refunds were paid in USDT to accounts hit by the abnormal moves. A second round of payments covered trading and liquidation fees as well. One analysis put the total…

Cathie Wood just put Hyperliquid in the Solana conversation. Will these remarks push HYPE price? ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood says that the decentralized exchange protocol Hyperliquid “reminds me of Solana in the earlier days,” calling it the “new kid on the block” in a recent interview on the Master Investor podcast. Wood reiterated that Bitcoin remains the core of ARK’s crypto thesis, but pointed to the growth of on-chain derivatives venues as a sign of shifting momentum. “It’s exciting. It reminds me of Solana in the earlier days,” she said, adding that Bitcoin “owns the cryptocurrency space when it comes to pure crypto.” DISCOVER: 15+ Upcoming Coinbase Listings t…

Asian markets start the week on a positive note Most Asian stock exchanges moved higher on Monday, while the US dollar weakened.

Without an agreement, a partial shutdown may begin midweek, coinciding with the introduction of new US tariffs on heavy trucks, pharmaceuticals, and other products.

Gold prices have climbed to a new all-time high of around $3,800 per ounce amid dollar weakness, as investors grew nervous about the potential shutdown of the U.S. government. Bullion rose 1.4% to an all-time high of $3,814 per ounce, surpassing last Tuesday's record after six consecutive weeks of gains. Silver jumped 2.4%, while platinum and palladium also posted significant increases, supported by persistent market tensions and inflows into exchange-traded funds backed by these metals. Strong physical demand from central banks — particularly in emerging markets — has also been an important factor behind gold's rally. Diversification of foreign reserves into gold is see…

Trade Review and Advice on Trading the British PoundThe test of the 1.3448 price level occurred when the MACD indicator had already moved significantly above the zero line, which limited the pair's upside potential. For this reason, I decided not to buy the pound. A second test of the same level coincided with the MACD being in the overbought zone, which validated sell Scenario #2, resulting in a 30-pip drop. The absence of consensus among U.S. politicians due to major ideological differences negatively impacted the value of the U.S. dollar yesterday, leading to a modest strengthening of the British pound. Investors are increasingly concerned about the potential consequen…

Bitcoin has shown signs of resilience after setting a fresh low near $108,000, staging a recovery that lifted the price back above the $113,000 level. Bulls now try to reclaim the $115,000 level, but momentum weakens as sellers push back. The recovery eased pressure in the short term, yet uncertainty builds while the market tracks major macro risks. The biggest concern comes from Washington, where the threat of a US government shutdown looms large. Traders expect volatility if policymakers fail to strike a deal, and risk assets like Bitcoin often react sharply to such headlines. As the deadline approaches, investors grow cautious and price action reflects that tension. …
