Bitcoin Reaches a Fresh 4-Week High
Bitcoin (BTCUSD) hit a fresh 4-week high of $74,900 early Tuesday morning before giving up some gains, reflecting improved investor risk appetite. Risk sentiment improved after the US and Iran considered resuming peace talks following a recent breakdown in negotiations. Looking ahead, investors should closely monitor geopolitical developments and US-Iran updates, as any escalation in the Middle East could prompt caution. Additionally, the start of the new quarterly earnings season and Federal Reserve speakers’ comments this week will provide insights into the central bank’s rate cut trajectory.
BTCUSD Technical Outlook
From a technical perspective, Bitcoin is likely to remain strong and stabilize at current levels or move higher. Key resistance lies around $75,800–$76,000, which will be crucial for bulls aiming to reach the next resistance levels at $77,800 and then $79,000. Conversely, a decline toward the $70,000 support level would be important to monitor, as it could signal renewed bearish pressure and challenge the current upward momentum.
Is the Bitcoin Rebound Sustainable?
Since the US-Iran conflict began, cryptocurrencies have emerged as the best-performing risk asset class. BTCUSD is showing early signals of a potential bounce after retesting the $70,000 support zone. The latest fall from $73,600 to $70,000 appears to be a healthy pullback within a broader sideways channel, paving the door for a potential reversal in the coming sessions. However, sharp single-day swings like Monday's bounce necessitate cautious monitoring over the next 2 days. If follow-through buying fails to appear, particularly on higher timeframes, it may signal that the rise was motivated by short-covering or position squaring rather than strong conviction buying.

Le secteur des services américain s'accélère sans que l'on assiste à une explosion de l'emploi. Une combinaison délicate pour la Fed
Les données macroéconomiques américaines publiées le 3 septembre ont mis en évidence une activité plus soutenue dans le secteur des services, parallèlement à une faiblesse persistante de l’embauche. Les entreprises licencient peu de salariés, les nouvelles commandes progressent fortement, mais l’emploi dans les services continue de reculer. Dans le même temps, les entreprises font état des pressions les plus fortes sur les prix des intrants depuis près de quatre ans. En matière de politique monétaire, la question centrale est donc la divergence entre la demande, l'emploi et les prix.

De nombreux débutants pensent que s’ils trouvent une bonne opportunité de trading, l’heure de la journée n’a pas d’importance. Or, les marchés ne se comportent pas de la même manière à chaque heure. Le nombre de traders actifs varie, le volume des transactions change, la volatilité évolue, et même la nature des mouvements de prix peut être différente. Une configuration qui fonctionne bien pendant une séance de marché animée peut se comporter de manière complètement différente quelques heures plus tard. C’est pourquoi les traders expérimentés ne se contentent pas d’examiner ce qu’ils souhaitent négocier. Ils prêtent également attention au moment où ils effectuent leurs transactions.
