Today, I tried trading the euro and the Australian dollar using the Mean Reversion strategy. With Momentum, I traded only the British pound, for which important data was released. News that producer prices in Germany fell more than expected put pressure on the euro. The Producer Price Index declined by 0.5% month-on-month, exceeding analysts' forecasts. This was the most significant drop. The euro reacted to the news by falling against the US dollar and other major currencies. Investors fear that the drop in producer prices may lead the European Central Bank to adopt a more dovish stance, since there is no point in waiting—the economy needs stimulus. The fall in German pr…

Analysis of Trades and Trading Tips for the British Pound The price test at 1.3463 occurred at a time when the MACD indicator had moved significantly below the zero mark, which limited the downward potential of the pair. Pound buyers failed to offer anything significant at the end of last week in the GBP/USD pair. The negative dynamics of the pound were reinforced by several factors, among them — investor caution ahead of key economic publications from the UK and ongoing uncertainty about the prospects for continued growth in the British economy. Today, there are no UK economic releases; however, speeches are expected from Bank of England Monetary Policy Committee member …

Artificial intelligence can slash truck waiting times in open-pit mining by as much as 55%, while increasing productivity and fuel efficiency, according to a new study by GEM Mining Consulting. The research tested Reinforcement Learning (RL) as an alternative to conventional rule-based truck dispatch. Across multiple scenarios, the AI system delivered stronger results: 23–33% more tonnage moved, 19–24% faster cycle times, 6–21% better fuel efficiency, and up to 48% less downtime. Truck allocation remains one of mining’s toughest challenges, with loading and hauling making up 50%–60% of costs. Traditional dispatch systems depend on fixed rules that often break down…

Log in to our mid-week North American Markets overview, where we examine the current themes in North America and provide an overview of indices and currency performances. We are now passed the feared and anticipated September FOMC meeting and since last week, the US Dollar has seen some whipsawing up-down action. While originally thought that a less-dovish-than expected Powell at the past week's FOMC press conference could invert the downward path in the greenback, comments made yesterday at a Rhode Island conference put-back more emphasis on a weakening job market. A dovish interpretation of this most recent turnaround has sent the dollar down, but in today's session…

XRP holders just got reminded that they may miss out on a major token giveaway if they do not act promptly. A reminder from the crypto community has made it clear that only a short time remains before the current claim window closes. If eligible holders fail to take part, they risk losing millions of dollars in value from the free distribution. The project team has stated that the claim process is open, but it will not remain so indefinitely. After the first phase concludes, fewer opportunities will be available, leaving many with limited or no options.

For the second consecutive day, GBP/USD is showing positive dynamics against the backdrop of U.S. dollar weakness, linked to rising expectations of further Fed rate cuts in October following the release of U.S. inflation data for August. The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index rose 2.7% year-over-year in August, in line with analysts' forecasts, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis published on Friday. The core PCE index, excluding food and energy, stood at 2.9%, also matching expectations. In September, the Fed cut the key rate by 25 basis points for the first time, bringing it to the 4.00%–4.25% range. According to the CME FedWatch…

On Tuesday, the GBP/USD currency pair traded with minimal volatility once again. The looming threat of a U.S. government shutdown had virtually no impact on trader sentiment — but that may not be the real reason. More likely, the market simply isn't willing to take risks right now or open positions that it might seriously regret in a few days. This explains both the low trading activity and the muted volatility. The dollar's position remains as vulnerable as ever. The greenback fell like a stone in early 2025, even as both the European Central Bank and the Bank of England were cutting interest rates. Now, roles have reversed: the ECB and BoE are taking a wait-and-see appr…

Tuesday Trade Review:1H Chart of GBP/USD On Tuesday, the GBP/USD pair was practically motionless. Although the downtrend on the hourly time frame can be considered complete, as the trendline has been broken, traders are hesitant to open new positions. This market standstill is easily explained by caution ahead of major U.S. labor market and unemployment reports scheduled for release on Friday. However, these key reports might not even be published due to the government shutdown, which begins today. To recap, a shutdown is a temporary suspension of government operations and funding due to the absence of an approved budget for the next fiscal year. Until Republicans and…

Bitcoin (BTC) showed resilience over the last weekend as it defended the crucial $108,000 support level amid heightened whale selling on leading crypto exchanges around the world, including Binance.

Binance trading volume data confirms this. Arab Chain highlighted Binance’s Exchange Inflow Coins Days Destroyed (CDD) indicator, which showed significant volatility throughout September.

Against all expectations, September 2025 proved surprisingly kind to crypto. While BTC USD ticked higher in the first few weeks of the month, the sharp plunge in the final week failed to erase those gains. Instead, a mix of bullish Bitcoin news and resilient buyers provided strong support, establishing a solid foundation for BTC USDT to push above $125,000 in Q4 2025. Presently, the Bitcoin price is steady above $116,000. The digital gold has successfully reversed its losses from September 25. That said, this leg up is on relatively low trading volume but has nonetheless pumped some of the best cryptos to buy. From a technical standpoint, a close above $118,000 could ign…

The GBP/USD currency pair continued its upward movement on Wednesday, which began a few days earlier. While the euro came under pressure following the release of eurozone inflation data, the British pound had no such releases and continued to climb without interruption. Overall, the pound is rising, while the dollar continues to fall — a trend that is clearly visible on the daily timeframe. The pair has essentially been in a state of consolidation for over two months, but during that time, the pound never lost more than 400 points. In fact, the downward correction could be considered completed as early as August 1. So while the pound may not be growing as firmly as in the…

Dogecoin is cooling off after its recent rejection near $0.307, with price action now consolidating between $0.220 and $0.240. Despite the pullback, bullish momentum remains intact, and market signals suggest a retest of the $0.32 level could be only a matter of time. Critical Support Validated, Bulls Eye $0.32 Retest Master Kenobi, in a fresh DOGE chart update, pointed out that the red dashed line has once again acted as a strong support level. This confirmation aligns with the point earlier highlighted by the yellow arrow, showing that the level was accurately identified as a realistic and critical zone for price stabilization. According to his analysis, this support…

GBP/USD By the end of Thursday, the price returned below the balance and MACD indicator lines. The daily close occurred 23 pips below the MACD line, marking a conditional consolidation under it and significantly increasing the likelihood of further decline. Support at 1.3364 is formally open. The Marlin oscillator turned downward while remaining in bearish territory. A close above the MACD line on Friday near 1.3475 would indicate conditional consolidation above it, opening the path to 1.3525. For now, the base scenario remains bearish. On the H4 chart, the price attempted conditional consolidation twice above the MACD line, but each time it closed firmly below it. Toda…

The Solana price had a relatively better performance than most large-cap crypto assets in September, posting a double-digit gain in the past month. The altcoin has made an even stronger start to October, enjoying the opening days of the month with an over 10% price jump so far. It is worth mentioning, though, that the Solana price somewhat struggled going into the weekend, which has seen the loss of the $230 mark. However, the latest on-chain data suggests the SOL token might only be taking a break, as it has yet to encounter the next major obstacle to its continuous ascent.

Bitcoin’s price gain in the last week has resulted in multiple other positive developments, ranging from a surge in ETF inflows to a bullish change in option trading calls, all signifying a renewed market confidence. In particular, over 99% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply is now held at an unrealized profit, a milestone that underscores the market’s strength. However, historical trends suggest that such conditions often precede a major price correction. Bitcoin May Be Headed For 10% Correction – Analyst In an X post on October 4, market analyst Ted Pillows shares an important cautionary insight on the present Bitcoin market.
