Market Heatmap and Fear and Greed Index
The crypto market faced a setback this week due to uncertainty surrounding the conflict in the Middle East.
BTC dropped by 5.85%, and ETH by over 9% causing the entire crypto market to melt.
It's not surprising that the Fear and Greed Index shifted from Greed to Neutral this week, and I expect it to move to Fear soon if bearish pressure continues.
When the meter shifts to Fear, it could present a good opportunity to start looking for long positions to take advantage of the anticipated medium-term reversal.
US500, DXY and Gold analysis
The US500 isn't slowing down as the US election draws closer week by week.
As it approaches the upper bound of its rising channel, marked in brown, we can expect bearish pressure to emerge.
Short-term, US500 has been bullish as it is trading within the ascending channel and above the previous all-time high.
The bears will only take control if the $5,620 support level is broken to the downside.
As anticipated in our last DXY analysis, it rejected the lower bound of the channel and the round number of $100.
If the previous cycles repeat, we expect a few bullish weeks ahead for the DXY, potentially moving toward the upper bound of the red channel.
DXY aligned perfectly with our analysis by breaking above the previous major high at $101, followed by a parabolic surge after the NFP news came out positive for the USD.
With the bulls still in control, a continuation towards $103.13 is likely.
Gold remained relatively stable this week despite the aggressive surge in DXY.
As it approaches the upper bound of the purple channel, we anticipate a significant bearish correction, as no asset continues to trade higher indefinitely.
The bearish scenario will be triggered if the previous low at $2,622 is broken to the downside.
Meanwhile, the overall sentiment and trend for Gold will remain bullish.
USDT.D, Bitcoin and Ethereum analysis
After breaking above the blue channel, as highlighted in our last USDT.D analysis, it rebounded from the 5.85% supply zone and is currently undergoing a correction.
As it retests the previous structure at 5.55%, we anticipate a bullish impulse to emerge.
If the recent high at 5.72% is broken to the upside, the correction will likely be short-lived, and the bulls could trigger the bullish impulse earlier than expected.
In the meantime, USDT.D is expected to test the 5.55% structure before making another surge.
BTC held strong above the $60,000 mark, despite all the negative news that could have caused a significant decline.
Bearish pressure will only emerge if the $58,000 support level is lost as mentioned in the last market outlook.
For the buyers to regain control, a break above the green structure at $62,850 is needed.
In the meantime, expect BTC to remain bearish in the short term, likely dipping into the $58,000 support zone to gather more liquidity for a potential push higher.
ETH has been uneventful this month for both traders and investors, stuck within a large symmetrical triangle marked in orange.
At the moment, ETH is positioned in the middle of the triangle, creating a tricky situation with no clear advantage for either bulls or bears.
ETH is currently retesting the $2,400 - $2,500 zone, which is now acting as resistance.
For another significant bearish impulse to begin, a break below the recent minor low at $2,380 is necessary.
In the meantime, ETH could still move slightly higher to test the $2,500 round number.
