The euro-dollar pair continued to test the support level of 1.1580, which corresponds to the midline of the Bollinger Bands indicator on the daily chart. Despite numerous attempts made this week, sellers of EUR/USD have not managed to overcome this price barrier, let alone establish themselves below it. Although bearish sentiment clearly dominates the pair, buyers, if they do counterattack, are limited to a 20-30-pip correction. EUR/USD traders (both buyers and sellers) are clearly being cautious ahead of the key release of the week. Thursday, on November 20, the United States will publish the long-awaited macroeconomic report. We will find out the official labor mark…

Billionaire Robert Friedland’s Ivanhoe Mines (TSX: IVN) has cut the ribbon on its long-awaited Platreef platinum mine, with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa presiding as Johannesburg hosts G20 delegations this week. The opening caps a 37-year effort at what Friedland calls “the world’s largest undeveloped precious-metals mine.” Ivanhoe fed first ore to the $2 billion project’s stage-one concentrator on Oct. 29 and produced first concentrate during the ceremony Tuesday, with ramp-up now underway. A second stage is already in development and a third expansion is to follow once the mine is established. “The Platreef mine will be a major contributor to Sout…

The Dogecoin price may be poised for a significant rebound, as a familiar long-term pattern has emerged on its chart. According to technical analysis, the structure looks almost identical to a setup that triggered a major breakout in its previous cycle, from 2023 to 2024. With Dogecoin currently at a crucial support level that once marked the start of its last sustained rally, a crypto analyst has projected that the meme coin could enter a new bullish phase, potentially driving it above $1. Past Pattern Foreshadows Dogecoin Price Surge To $1 Crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade has predicted that the Dogecoin price could soon surge to $1.10 from its current $0.15 in this cy…

Bitcoin is now holding ground around the $90K level as the market transitions into a new and uncertain phase. Sentiment is sharply divided: some analysts argue that the breakdown below $100K marks the beginning of a new bear market, while others believe Bitcoin is setting the stage to break its traditional four-year cycle and rally harder than ever in the months ahead. This tension reflects a market struggling to price in fear, macro pressure, and structural shifts in liquidity. According to new data shared by top analyst Darkfost, more than 6.96 million BTC accumulated by investors are now sitting at an unrealized loss. This marks the highest level of unrealized loss s…

Rio Tinto (NYSE, LSE, ASX: RIO) plans to scale back output at its Yarwun alumina refinery in Queensland by 40% starting in October 2026 to extend the plant’s operating life to 2035. The reduction amounts to about 1.2 million tonnes of alumina a year, though the company said Tuesday customer supply commitments will not be affected. “It is a difficult but necessary decision that preserves future options for the site and supports continued economic contribution,” Armando Torres, managing director of Rio Tinto Aluminium Pacific Operations, said in the release. “The scale of investment required is substantial.” High power, labour and capital costs continue to chall…

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. With the US government finally reopening its doors, markets are bracing for an immediate data deluge after months of flying blind. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is scrambling to clear the backlog, with the delayed September Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) set to drop tomorrow, Thursday the 20th, followed by the release of PPI data on the 25th. Adding to the high-stakes environment, weekly jobless claims are also making a comeback tomorrow morning. While this influx of information is a gift to a Feder…

For GBP/USD, the wave pattern continues to indicate the formation of an upward trend segment (bottom chart), but in recent weeks it has taken on a complex and extended shape (top chart). The trend segment that began on July 1 can be considered wave 4—or any large corrective wave—since it has a corrective, not impulsive, internal wave structure. The same applies to its internal subwaves. Therefore, despite the prolonged decline of the pound, I believe the upward trend remains intact. The downward wave structure that began on September 17 has taken the shape of a five-wave a-b-c-d-e pattern and may now be complete. If that is the case, the instrument is currently at the ver…

The wave pattern of the EUR/USD 4-hour chart has transformed, but overall it still appears quite clear. There is no indication that the upward trend segment that began in January 2025 has been canceled, but the wave structure since July 1 has become significantly more complex and extended. In my view, the instrument is currently forming corrective wave 4, which has taken on an unconventional shape. Within this wave we see exclusively corrective structures, so there is no doubt regarding the corrective nature of the decline. In my opinion, the upward trend segment is not yet complete, and its targets extend up to the 1.25 level. The a-b-c-d-e series looks complete, and the…

Libra-linked wallets quietly pulled roughly $4 million from a failing memecoin and used part of their stash to pile into Solana, according to on-chain tracking and news reports. The move comes amid fraud probes and renewed scrutiny of the token’s launch, which earlier this year saw large withdrawals that rocked investor confidence and drew legal attention. Wallets Rotate Funds Into Solana Based on on-chain data, two addresses tied to the Libra project — labeled “Libra Deployer (Defcy)” and “Libra Wallet (61yKS)” — bought about $61.5 million worth of SOL at an average price near $135. Before these purchases, the same addresses reportedly held roughly $57 million in USD…

Today, gold is showing moderate intraday growth, although no active buying is observed as markets await news from the United States. Market participants continue to express concern about slowing economic growth caused by the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, which is worsening investor sentiment and boosting demand for gold as a safe-haven asset. Earlier, Ukrainian forces reported strikes on targets inside Russian territory using U.S.-supplied ATACMS missiles. In the context of the ongoing crisis, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky plans to visit Turkey in an attempt to revive stalled peace talks with Russia. U.S. Special Representative Steve Witkoff is exp…

Most Read: NVIDIA (NVDA) Q3 2025 Earnings Preview: Navigating the AI Stress Test Markets are bracing for the release of September Jobs data from the US now that the US Government shutdown has come to an end. The report comes at a time when US rate cut expectations have fallen significantly since the Fed's October meeting thanks in part to a hawkish Jerome Powell and the lack of official Government data. Expectations for a rate cut have declined from around 90% ahead of the Fed's October meeting to around 49% at the time of writing, which makes tomorrow's jobs report even more significant. Market participants have been tracking private data releases such as the ADP number …

Bitcoin has spent the past several weeks trapped in a persistent decline, wiping hundreds of billions of dollars from its market value and reversing nearly a year’s worth of gains. The pullback has pushed the price far below its October all-time high of $126,000 and has dragged sentiment with it as traders search for answers. A detailed breakdown shared by crypto analyst Tracy Shuchart offers the clearest picture yet of why this downturn has been so aggressive. Her analysis points to a failure not driven by a single factor but by several interconnected forces that broke simultaneously and created the conditions for a cascading crash. This presents the possibility of Bit…

Divorce often brings emotional upheaval along with a sudden sense of financial freedom, which can create strong impulses to overspend. For pre-retirees and retirees, these reactions can undermine years of careful saving and sabotage long-term retirement security. Redirecting those emotions into strengthening a Gold IRA with physical precious metals can help restore stability, discipline, and confidence during a major life transition. Understanding the Post-Divorce Spending Urge and Its Impact on Retirement Savings Even when a divorce is amicable, it can leave individuals feeling unmoored and vulnerable. Many people compensate with spending that feels therapeutic in the mo…

Multiple breakdown attempts from selling flows have failed to materialize in more concrete bearish price action. And with key earnings coming up for Nvidia (After the close), the setup for mean reversion was a very decent one for Equity bulls. Both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq are up in today's session with the tech-focused index leading strong, pulled once again by Semiconductors and a stellar performance from Google, who just launched a revolutionary Gemini 3 Model. Tech giants like Nvidia, AVGO, and Oracle are bouncing back from rough stretches, while Consumer Defensives, Energy, and Utilities are on the other hand lagging quite much, leading to the Dow barely tradin…

CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju has put a clear reference level on the current Bitcoin correction – but is adamant it should not be mistaken for a prediction. “Many people seem to be misunderstanding this, so let me clarify,” he wrote. “I am not saying $56K is the bottom. I am saying the realized price is 56K. If you follow the cycle theory, that level would be the bottom. But I think the cycle theory is broken, and the price could flip at any time depending on macro conditions and market sentiment.” Bitcoin Realized Price Sits at $56,000 His latest data briefing breaks the market into three layers: futures, spot, and on-chain. In the futures market, Ju says the average or…

While the lithium market looks to be in the early stages of a recovery, IGO (ASX: IGO) has no faith in the prospects for a recovery at the Kwinana lithium refinery in Western Australia. Kwinana, south of Perth, is owned by Tianqi Lithium Energy Australia (TLEA), which is 51% owned by China’s Tianqi Lithium (SHE: 002466) and 49% by IGO. In January, TLEA announced it would suspend the construction of the second train of the Kwinana plant amid the struggle to reach nameplate capacity at Train 1. IGO CEO Ivan Vella told the company’s annual general meeting in Perth on Wednesday that the company continued to negotiate with Tianqi on the future of the facility. …

MP Materials (NYSE: MP) has teamed up with the US Department of War (DoW) to form a joint venture in Saudi Arabia with Maaden, the kingdom’s flagship mining company, to build a rare earth refinery. Shares of the company rose. The formation of this joint venture, said MP in a press release Wednesday, represents “a pivotal step toward rebalancing the global rare earth supply chain and aligns with US economic and national security interests.” The company is currently the only fully integrated producer of rare earth materials in the US, with operations centered around its Mountain Pass mine and processing facility in California and magnet production site in Texas. …

Yesterday’s (November 18) Cloudflare outage caused billions of dollars in losses as the internet seemingly came to a standstill. The disruption affected many users trying to access X, Truth Social, Reddit, ChatGPT, Coinbase, Ledger, BitMEX, DefiLlama, and many more. Ironically, many of the affected platforms and websites were crypto-related, a sector that promotes decentralization. However, a single cloud hosting protocol going down in Cloudflare subsequently brought the internet to a standstill, highlighting just how centralized much of the World Wide Web still is. The Cloudflare (NET) share price tumbled -1.09% on the day as investors began selling off the stock amid…

Some reports from Axios have emitted the possibility of the Russia-Ukraine war going towards a US-led year-end resolution. Some of this could have been anticipated – Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced yesterday that paths to direct discussion with Russia could reopen and that Ukraine is “preparing to reinvigorate negotiations”. So the overnight report could just be one of diplomatic progress, in a US attempt to provide a plan similar Peace Plan as the one that was agreed in Gaza. The rest will be to see if both sides actually commit to the discussions. The direct effect was some imminent selling in Oil and related products, with Black Gold down $1.80 from its highs, or ver…

Bitcoin fell sharply over the past week, sliding almost 15% and moving beneath the $100,000 and $95,000 marks to trade around $90,300, Wednesday. According to company disclosures, Michael Saylor’s Strategy bought an extra 8,178 BTC for $835.6 million at about $102,171 apiece during the downturn. That move has drawn fresh attention because some of those newest coins are already underwater. Strategy’s Holdings And Recent Buys Reports have disclosed that Strategy now holds 649,870 BTC, equal to roughly 3.2% of the circulating supply. The firm says it paid about $48 billion for those coins. At current prices, the holding’s market value sits near $59.38 billion, leaving an …

The modern cryptocurrency market continues to be extremely volatile and susceptible to global economic factors. The main concern for investors lies in the uncertainty surrounding the future direction of monetary policy by the US Federal Reserve. Recent statements from Fed Chair Jerome Powell indicate a possible continuation of a tight monetary policy, which creates additional risks for digital assets. The Fear&Greed index remains at an extreme level ("12" out of 100), reflecting a high level of anxiety among market participants. Investors are fearful of potential economic shocks, such as a new escalation in trade conflicts between the US and China, the threat of r…

Gold may face challenges, but they will be short-lived. Financial markets seem to have accepted that the Fed will not cut the federal funds rate in December, despite a series of weak data from alternative sources. However, derivatives imply a 68% probability of a monetary policy easing in January, with the possibility that borrowing costs could drop by as much as 50 basis points. It is no surprise that about 26% of the 172 financial managers overseeing around $475 billion prefer the precious metal as their top pick for 2026. The only contender surpassing it is the Japanese yen, which received 30% of the votes in a Bank of America survey. Saxo Bank believes that the res…
