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.

De Amerikaanse dienstensector groeit in een versneld tempo zonder dat er sprake is van een wervingsgolf. Een ongemakkelijke combinatie voor de Fed
Uit de op 3 september gepubliceerde macro-economische cijfers uit de VS bleek dat de activiteit in de dienstensector is toegenomen, terwijl de werkgelegenheid aanhoudend zwak blijft. Bedrijven ontslaan weinig werknemers en het aantal nieuwe orders stijgt sterk, maar de werkgelegenheid in de dienstensector blijft krimpen. Tegelijkertijd melden bedrijven de sterkste druk op de inputprijzen in bijna vier jaar. Voor het monetaire beleid is de divergentie tussen vraag, werkgelegenheid en prijzen dan ook het belangrijkste punt.

Veel beginners denken dat het tijdstip van de dag er niet toe doet als ze maar een goede handelsopstelling vinden. Maar markten gedragen zich niet elk uur op dezelfde manier. Het aantal actieve handelaren verandert, het handelsvolume verandert, de volatiliteit verandert en zelfs de kwaliteit van de koersbewegingen kan verschillen. Een setup die goed werkt tijdens een actieve handelssessie, kan zich enkele uren later heel anders gedragen. Daarom kijken ervaren handelaren niet alleen naar wat ze willen verhandelen. Ze letten ook op het tijdstip waarop ze handelen.
