What To Watch

  • 1.BTC $67,500 — a sustained break below this key support level, which has held multiple times recently, would signal a loss of bullish momentum and likely trigger a move towards $64,000 as the next major support.
  • 2.Exchange Netflow (All Exchanges) — a significant increase in net inflows (more BTC moving onto exchanges than off) would signal increased selling pressure from whales or institutional holders, potentially leading to a price correction.
  • 3.US CPI print (May 15th) higher than expected — if core CPI comes in above 0.4% MoM, it would significantly reduce the likelihood of Fed rate cuts in 2024, strengthening the dollar and creating headwinds for risk assets like crypto.

Geopolitical instability is now a primary driver of traditional forex markets, revealing how global events directly dictate even the most established monetary policies. This external pressure will force the BoJ to act defensively, accelerating yen depreciation as a flight to safety bypasses the region.
