LEGACY MARKETS – DXY

DXY has been trading within a narrow range recently, reflecting market uncertainty as participants digest the potential economic and inflationary impacts of former President Donald Trump's newly announced tariffs.
BTC WEEKLY VIEW

After last week's significant fluctuations, BTC has returned to its previous price level and is currently trading within a stable, sideways adjustment range.
ETH WEEKLY VIEW

On the daily chart, ETH has been on a downward trajectory after fallen below the $2,700 support level. Given the current weak momentum, it is anticipated that ETH may attempt an upward move to retest the 10-day moving average before determining its next directional move. We should monitor whether the price can effectively break through key moving averages to assess future trends.
ETH/BTC

Over the past week, ETH/BTC has not experienced a strong rebound in the past week and continues to face challenges within its ongoing downtrend.
TOTAL3 USD MARKET STRENGTH

Following last week's sharp decline, the TOTAL3 has found some respite. Market participants are closely monitoring this level, anticipating a potential retest of the 10-day moving average to determine the next directional move.
TOTAL3 BTC MARKET STRENGTH

Like most majors, TOTAL3/BTC is also in a consolidation phase, waiting for the market to absorb this recent drop before deciding on its next direction.
SUMMARY
- BTC remains sensitive to macro uncertainties, with risk-off sentiment capping upside potential. The evaluation of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) could be a long-term bullish catalyst, but short-term price action remains dictated by broader risk sentiment.
- ETH is struggling to regain strength after Monday’s liquidations and continues to trade weakly. The lack of immediate regulatory clarity dampens sentiment, though long-term regulatory efforts could support stability.
- Altcoins are particularly vulnerable in this environment, with liquidity tightening and risk appetite diminishing. While some relief may come with clearer policies, the market remains in a defensive stance, awaiting stronger catalysts.
- The initial crypto rebound after last Monday’s liquidations has lost momentum, as policy clarity remains limited. Both equity and crypto markets remain vulnerable to tariff-related headlines, with investors staying defensive until clearer trade policies emerge.
