Here's what you need to know today.

Stocks Point Higher With Semiconductor Rally Leading Gains

Stock futures are higher as chip stocks lead an early-morning rally following a strong earnings report from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSM). Futures tied to the tech-heavy Nasdaq were up 0.9% recently, while S&P 500 futures added 0.4% and Dow Jones Industrial Average futures hovered near unchanged. The major indexes finished lower for a second straight day on Wednesday as bank stocks retreated following earnings from several major financial institutions. Crude oil futures have dropped below $60 per barrel as tensions with Iran that boosted the commodity in recent days look to have eased. Gold futures were down 0.3% at $4,620 an ounce, after hitting a record high on Wednesday. Bitcoin, which hit its highest level in two months yesterday, was down slightly from those levels, trading at $96,800. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, which affects borrowing costs on all sorts of loans, ticked up to 4.15%.

Oil Futures Slip as Iran Tensions Ease Amid Deadly Protests

Crude oil futures are tumbling Thursday morning after President Trump said that Iranian officials have told him the killing of protestors has stopped.1 Recent protests against the government in Iran have resulted in an estimated 2,500 or more deaths, creating uncertainty around the country's stability and therefore the stability of its oil industry. Trump had said previously that the U.S. military could get involved if the protests continued to be met with a violent response from the Iranian government. Crude oil futures surged to a three-month high on Wednesday, but WTI futures, the U.S. benchmark, were down 4% at $59.55 per barrel this morning.

TSMC Leads Chip Stocks Higher After Reporting Strong Earnings

Shares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSM) are surging after the dominant chipmaker topped estimates in its latest quarterly report. For the fourth quarter, TSMC said it generated 1.05 trillion New Taiwan Dollars ($33.73 billion) in revenue, up 25% year-over-year, while profits surged 35% to $3.15 per American Depositary Receipt. Each metric came in higher than the analyst consensus, per estimates compiled by Visible Alpha.2 The contract manufacturer has been a major beneficiary of the AI boom, making advanced chips for many of the industry's heavyweights including Nvidia (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). TSMC's U.S.-listed shares, which closed at a record high on Monday, were up 6% in recent premarket trading, while Nvidia and AMD added 1% and 2%, respectively. Shares of ASML (ASML), which makes equipment used by TSMC and other chipmakers to manufacture the semiconductors, were up more than 7% ahead of the opening bell.

Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Blackrock Beat Earnings Expectations

The heavy flow of earnings reports from major financial institutions continued this morning, with Goldman Sachs (GS), Morgan Stanley (MS) and asset management giant BlackRock (BLK) all releasing fourth-quarterly results. BlackRock reported first, with revenue, adjusted earnings per share, and total assets under management each coming in higher than analysts had forecast.3 Results from Goldman and Morgan Stanley also handily topped Wall Street expectations.45 Bank stocks have had a rough week. They sank Monday on a proposal from President Trump to cap credit card interest rates at 10%, and remained under pressure after a string of mixed reports from JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Citigroup (C), and Wells Fargo (WFC). BlackRock shares were up about 2% in recent premarket trading, while Morgan Stanley fell slightly and Goldman dropped 2%.

Nvidia Chip Sales to Chinese Customers Will Have White House Support

Nvidia moved a step closer to being able to sell its H200 chips to customers in China again this week, as the Department of Commerce updated its rules for semiconductor exports and Trump said his administration would support the sales.67 Last month, Trump said Nvidia would be allowed to sell the H200 chips, less advanced than Nvidia's Blackwell and new Vera Rubin chips, to China with the U.S. government receiving a 25% cut of the revenue. The Commerce Department said it would shift from rejecting exports of the chips to a case-by-case review. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has said that demand has been strong from Chinese customers, but the Chinese government has previously told companies in the country not to buy less advanced Nvidia chips over concerns of the U.S. government's involvement in the process. Nvidia shares were up about 1% recently.

]]> Vexl: Empowering Peer-to-Peer Bitcoin Exchange Through Social Networks https://beecripta.com/news/158-vexl-empowering-peer-to-peer-bitcoin-exchange-through-social-networks.html https://beecripta.com/news/158-vexl-empowering-peer-to-peer-bitcoin-exchange-through-social-networks.html admin Thu, 15 Jan 2026 15:09:33 +0300 In an era where centralized exchanges dominate cryptocurrency trading, Vexl stands out as a peer-to-peer (P2P) application designed to connect Bitcoin users within their personal networks for direct, non-custodial trades. The app facilitates buying and selling Bitcoin without intermediaries, emphasizing in-person meetings for cash exchanges while also supporting fiat transfers arranged privately between users.

]]> In an era where centralized exchanges dominate cryptocurrency trading, Vexl stands out as a peer-to-peer (P2P) application designed to connect Bitcoin users within their personal networks for direct, non-custodial trades. The app facilitates buying and selling Bitcoin without intermediaries, emphasizing in-person meetings for cash exchanges while also supporting fiat transfers arranged privately between users.

As Viliam Klamarcik, CEO of Vexl, explained in an interview with Bitcoin Magazine, “we are an application that helps people to buy and sell Bitcoin directly with each other, without any intermediaries, without KYC. Vexl works without custody, so peer-to-peer, but what’s most important is that it is always within your own community, meaning we are not a global marketplace. We are basically a peer-to-peer notice board where you can connect with your first and second-level connections.”

At its core, Vexl prioritizes privacy, functioning as a high-trust notice board within your personal social network, rather than an exchange. It does not escrow Bitcoin or fiat, it does not hold user funds, nor store balances, messages, or personal data. All communications occur via end-to-end encrypted chats, and trades happen off-app, placing responsibility on users to verify counterparts. This design aligns with Vexl’s mission to support non-KYC Bitcoin acquisition and local economies, as confirmed on the app’s official website, which states, “We do not store any personal information or any of your messages, period.”

User connections in Vexl are built on a web-of-trust model, drawing from imported phone contacts to create a personalized order book. Offers are visible only to first- and second-degree connections—your contacts and their contacts—enhancing liquidity while maintaining high trust through shared social links. This limits exposure to strangers, reducing scam risks, and usernames remain anonymous until users mutually reveal identities. Klamarcik noted, “The biggest difference between Vexel and the other applications is, first of all, its web of trust, which means you don’t trade with users; you trade with people with whom you are connected through real social links.” The app’s privacy measures include hashing contact data and separating components like profiles, chats, offers, and contacts into microservices that converge only on the user’s device, ensuring no centralized database exists.

To enable this system, Vexl requires a phone number for registration, serving as proof of humanity to deter bots and facilitating contact imports. Privacy concerns are addressed through encryption and hashing; as the website affirms, “Your chats always remain encrypted, while the phone numbers are hashed.” Klamarcik acknowledged imperfections but emphasized its necessity: “The phone numbers are a big topic, and we are aware of that. And it’s not perfect, but also it’s probably the best solution that we have out there to build trust upon that.” This mirrors mechanisms in apps like Signal and major social networks, primarily as a spam-prevention and authentication tool.

For users hesitant to import full contacts—particularly in privacy-focused regions like Germany—Vexl offers “clubs,” curated groups managed by local moderators, often meetup organizers. These act as public rooms where members can view offers without broad network sharing, though trust shifts to the moderator. Entry requires a one-time code or QR scan, regenerable for security, providing an onboarding boost for newcomers until they build direct connections.

Vexl is available on both Android and iOS, but iOS users face restrictions.

The app is not officially listed on the App Store, limited to TestFlight beta slots or sideloading in the EU, due to Apple’s claims of “reckless behavior” for encouraging in-person trades (Tinder, however, remains in iOS without restrictions). Android offers seamless access via Google Play or APK downloads, making it the optimal platform for unrestricted use.

Vexl runs under a non-profit foundation model, accepting donations and grants to preserve its privacy and peer-to-peer ethos. On the topic, Klamarcik said, “From the very beginning, Vexl was intended as a gift to the Bitcoin community: an open-source tool built to help people transact peer-to-peer, without custody, surveillance, or extracting value from users. The project operates as a non-profit with an essential goal in its core – to keep bitcoin usable in everyday life and accessible to anyone, anywhere. Funding through donations and grants allows Vexl to stay focused on building simple, resilient tools for freedom. As an open-source project supported by SatoshiLabs, the creators of the Trezor hardware wallet, Vexl follows a long tradition of building infrastructure first.” Vexl is fully open source and is a project by Satoshi Labs, the creators of the Trezor hardware wallet.

The non-profit model has become increasingly popular among privacy-focused projects, as for-profit incentives tend to lead to data collection business models like advertisement, while Bitcoin-specific privacy apps have been actively prosecuted on the basis of monetizing “money laundering”. Samourai Wallet’s founders were accused of money laundering conspiracy, though ultimately were only imprisoned for unlicensed money transmission charges, after facilitating over $2 billion in transactions via a non-custodial Bitcoin wallet. Tornado Cash faced U.S. sanctions in 2022 for billions in volume, under similar charges for a service that profited from giving Ethereum users basic financial privacy. These cases highlight how privacy-focused entities are being targeted by governments.

Looking ahead, Klamarcik signaled expansion: “This year is hopefully going to be the year when we actually go overseas and also focus on markets outside of Europe when it makes sense.”

  • Ales Michl published his opinion on Bitcoin amid the LIBRA scandal.
  • The head of the CNB believes that central banks should study the technology on which it is based.
  • He distinguished Bitcoin from other crypto assets and advised them to carefully weigh all risks when investing.

The head of the Czech National Bank (CNB), Ales Michl, urged not to equate Bitcoin with other crypto assets. His comment came against the backdrop of the scandal surrounding the LIBRA token and the involvement of Argentine President Javier Miley in its promotion.

Recall that Michl made a proposal to invest part of the CNB reserves in the first cryptocurrency. In his opinion, counterparties in the banking sector need to study the technology on which it was created and adapt to new market conditions.

The Board has accepted this proposal. The regulator will analyze the potential benefits of investing part of the central bank's reserves in Bitcoin and then make a final decision.

Michl's initiative, however, was met with criticism, even though he admitted that Bitcoin remains an extremely volatile and risky asset. In particular, European Central Bank Chairwoman Christine Lagarde said that none of the Eurozone banks would invest in the first cryptocurrency.

In his note, Michl emphasized that the crypto asset market is still in its infancy and will experience ups and downs. However, this does not apply to the first cryptocurrency:

"Bitcoin is a completely different story. It should not be equated with other crypto assets. We as central bankers must study it and research the technology on which it is based. Learning Bitcoin will not harm us – on the contrary, it will strengthen us.”

In the publication, Michl did not specify what ups and downs he was talking about. However, his comment came against the backdrop of a scandal surrounding the memcoin LIBRA, which was launched with the support of Argentine President Javier Miley.

Miley is threatened with impeachment. In addition, information appeared in the press that the creators of the project paid his sister to promote Memcoin. According to media reports, the latter wants to resign.

Historically, it has timed every single Bitcoin cycle high with remarkable precision—often within just three days. Could it work its magic again this cycle? Let’s dive deeper into how it works and its significance in navigating Bitcoin’s market cycles.

]]> The Bitcoin Pi Cycle Top Indicator has gained legendary status in the Bitcoin community for its uncanny accuracy in identifying market cycle peaks. Historically, it has timed every single Bitcoin cycle high with remarkable precision—often within just three days. Could it work its magic again this cycle? Let’s dive deeper into how it works and its significance in navigating Bitcoin’s market cycles.


What is the Pi Cycle Top Indicator?

The Pi Cycle Top Indicator is a tool designed to identify Bitcoin’s market cycle tops. Created by Philip Swift, Managing Director of Bitcoin Magazine Pro in April 2019, this indicator uses a combination of two moving averages to forecast cycle highs:

  1. 111-Day Moving Average (111DMA): Represents the shorter-term price trend.
  2. 350-Day Moving Average x 2 (350DMA x 2): A multiple of the 350DMA, which captures longer-term trends.


When the 111DMA rises sharply and crosses above the 350DMA x 2, it historically coincides with Bitcoin’s market cycle peak.

The Mathematics Behind the Name


Interestingly, the ratio of 350 to 111 equals approximately 3.153—remarkably close to Pi (3.142). This mathematical quirk gives the indicator its name and highlights the cyclical nature of Bitcoin’s price action over time.

Why Has It Been So Accurate?


The Pi Cycle Top Indicator has been effective in predicting the peaks of Bitcoin’s three most recent market cycles. Its ability to pinpoint the absolute tops reflects Bitcoin’s historically predictable cycles during its adoption growth phase. The indicator essentially captures the point where the market becomes overheated, as reflected by the steep rise of the 111DMA surpassing the 350DMA x 2.

How Can Investors Use This Indicator?


For investors, the Pi Cycle Top Indicator serves as a warning sign that the market may be approaching unsustainable levels. Historically, when the indicator flashes, it has been advantageous to sell Bitcoin near the top of the market cycle. This makes it a valuable tool for those seeking to maximize gains and minimize losses.

However, as Bitcoin matures and integrates further into the global financial system—bolstered by developments like Bitcoin ETFs and institutional adoption—the effectiveness of this indicator may diminish. It remains most relevant during Bitcoin’s early adoption phase.

A Glimpse Into the Future


The big question now is: will the Pi Cycle Top Indicator remain accurate in this cycle? With Bitcoin entering a new era of adoption and market dynamics, its cyclical patterns may evolve. Yet, this tool has proven its worth repeatedly over Bitcoin’s first 15 years, offering investors a reliable gauge of market tops.

Final Thoughts


The Pi Cycle Top Indicator is a testament to Bitcoin’s cyclical nature and the power of mathematical models in understanding its price behavior. While its past accuracy has been unparalleled, only time will tell if it can once again predict Bitcoin’s next market cycle peak. For now, it remains an indispensable tool for those navigating the thrilling highs and lows of Bitcoin.

Most trading indicators are formed solely based on prices. However, there is a separate group of analytical tools based not only on cryptocurrency cost calculations, but also on quantitative calculations – volumes.
On-Balance Volume (OBV) was developed and researched in the early 1960s by American analyst and writer Joseph Granville. The indicator is cumulative. Its essence is to increase the volume when the price rises and subtract it when the price falls.

If the market has no momentum, there is no need for action.Graphically speaking, OBV is a regular line.It is best to use the indicator when exiting a sideways movement, as it is proactive in relation to the price.Its sharp movement will indicate the emergence of a new impulse.

In addition, an important signal for traders occurs when the value of a cryptocurrency rises/falls and the OBV, on the other hand, falls/rises. In this case, a divergence occurs, which heralds a trend reversal. In the following figure, you can clearly see the indicator using the Bitcoin daily chart as an example.15122401.jpg Source: Tradingview.com Accumulation/Distribution Indicator (A/D) was created by analyst Marc Chaikindeveloped.

The main purpose is to determine whether a trend is supported by a large volume or not. If this does not happen, it is called a weakening of the movement (growth or decline). The indicator is calculated according to the formula: A/Dn = ((Closing price - Minimum price) - (Maximum price - Closing price)) / (Maximum price - Minimum price) * Volume + A/Dn-1 n -Day for which A/D is determined; n-1 – day before the current one. Like OBV, A/D is a regular line on a chart. The main trading signals that this indicator provides are convergence and divergence.

The first is a confirmation of a trend when the direction of movement of the cryptocurrency price and the A/D coincide. Divergence is the discrepancy between price movement and the indicator. The image below shows A/D on an Ether chart. The direction of the indicator coincides with the price movement - that is, convergence is observed, and therefore we can expect continued growth. However, it is better to use A/D in combination with other technical analysis toolsuse.15122402.jpg Source: Tradingview.com Chaikin Oscillator Mark Chaikin was a fairly prolific analyst.

In addition to A/D, he suggested using an oscillator. In fact, both indicators are related to each other. The Chaikin oscillator is calculated as the difference between two exponential averages of A/D. Typically, the ten-day moving average (slower) is subtracted from the three-day moving average (faster). Since volumes are included in the A/D calculation, they remain in the calculation of theChaikin oscillator obtained. The indicator is a regular line.

The signals that exist are quite normal: divergence and zero crossing. The first indicates a divergence in the direction of movement of cryptocurrency prices and the indicator. For example, an asset is growing and the oscillator is falling, or vice versa. Crossing the zero mark from bottom to top is a buy signal, from top to bottom is a sell signal. In the image below you can see a graphical representation of the Chaikin oscillator on theSolana daily chart. The indicator line crossed the zero mark from top to bottom, indicating selling pressure.
Money Flow Index The Money Flow Index (MFI) shows the intensity with which investors deposit and withdraw money in certain cryptocurrencies. This indicator is similar in interpretation and nature to the RSI. However, they are not the same as the MFI calculation is based on volumes. The indicator is calculated in several steps.

The first step is to calculate the so-called typical price. It represents the arithmetic mean between the closing price and the high and low prices for a certain period of time: Typical price = (closing price + minimum price + maximum price) / 3 t - period. Next, the cash flow itself is calculated directly (money flow), as the product of a typical price per volume (volume): Money flow = typical price * volume.In the next step, the money ratio is calculated. It represents the sum of the private positive money flow (Positive Money Flow) to the negative money flow: Money ratio = ∑(Positive Money Flowt)/∑(Negative Money Flowt).

In the final step, the cash flow index (MFI) itself is calculated: MFI = 100 - (100/(1+money ratio)).As with the RSI, the main signals of the money flow index are: divergence - the discrepancy between the price and the indicator, indicating a change in the trend;entry into the overbought and oversold zones, i.e.h. the curve rises above 80% and falls below 20%; exceed 50%: from bottom to top - a bullish signal, from top to bottom - a bearish signal.

You can observe MFI below using the XRP daily chart as an example.The money flow index gives two signals in favor of the bears at once.First, the line crossed the 50% limit from bottom to top.Secondly, there was a bearish divergence in XRP, which is marked by falling purple lines both on the price chart and on the indicator itself.15122404.jpg Source: Tradingview.com ConclusionThere are quite a few indicators based on volume.

In addition, the signals they give are quite similar. There is also uniformity in the graphical representation: all indicators are curved lines. However, they are calculated differently.All volume indicators should be used in combination with other technical and fundamental analysis tools.

Most trading indicators are formed solely based on prices. However, there is a separate group of analytical tools based not only on cryptocurrency cost calculations, but also on quantitative calculations – volumes.
On-Balance Volume (OBV) was developed and researched in the early 1960s by American analyst and writer Joseph Granville. The indicator is cumulative. Its essence is to increase the volume when the price rises and subtract it when the price falls.

US-China tensions could weigh on energy and commodities markets next year, while the outlook for gold remains favorable, writes Bloomberg, citing analystsING.

President-elect Donald Trump's promises to impose tariffs on trading partners and possible retaliation could destabilize markets such as oil, metals and agriculture as traders also look to stimulus from China to boost consumption, the bank said in its 2025 outlook.

"We expect much of the mix to decline in 2025, with supply and demand conditions relatively comfortable," Warren Patterson and Eva Manthey said in the report. "A possible escalation in trade tensions poses a downside risk as markets wait to see when and how China's support measures will impact commodity markets."

Although Trump is unlikely to affect U.S. oil production, the commodity is expected to come under pressure due to a sharp increase in non-OPEC supply.ING predicts the average Brent price will fall to $71 a barrel next year from around $74 currently. Meanwhile, new U.S. LNG export facilities could boost domestic demand and prices, allowing Europe to more easily offset supplies from Russia, leading to lower natural gas prices in the region in the event of a normal winter.

At the same time, ING predicts that gold will continue to set records due to geopolitical concerns and the average price will be $2,760 per ounce in 2025.

On Thursday, futures for the yellow metal are trading slightly lower, testing the $2,750 an ounce level.The spot price is $2,718 at 10:02 Moscow time.

The bulk of the buying will come from central banks looking to diversify their foreign exchange reserves, and heightened trade and geopolitical tensions could increase gold's safe-haven appeal.

The outlook for industrial metals is bleaker, with trade factors, possible changes in Biden's climate laws and Chinese demand likely to play a role.Copper will average $8,900 a ton in 2025, up from over $9,200 currently. Grains are likely to be a key target in any disputes, while weather concerns continue to weigh on agricultural commodities and cocoa and coffee prices are expected to fluctuate further next year.

Where is Bitcoin heading in 2026?Crypto professionals give forecasts and show which aspects are now crucial for investors.

Bitcoin is volatile, but reached new record levels in 2025.The cryptocurrency is currently worth around 87,933 US dollars, the equivalent of around 74,683 euros (as of December 30, 2025).What happens next in 2026?We asked experts for their Bitcoin predictions.The majority of those surveyed are optimistic about the future - but risks remain.

The current Bitcoin price can be found in a separate article.Do you want to buy Bitcoin?We explain what you should consider with Trade Republic and Scalable Capital.Our depot comparison also shows other providers.

Bitcoin forecast 2026: This is what crypto professionals expect in the new oneYear

The expert estimates for the Bitcoin price at the end of 2026 are largely optimistic.“Basically, I see the asset class in terms of long-term growth,” says David Florysiak.However, the professor of Fintech at the IU Internationale Hochschule in Munich emphasizes that both scenarios - a price above or below the current all-time high of 126,000 US dollars - are plausible by the end of 2026.

From today's perspective, in his opinion a level close to or above the previous all-time high seems somewhat more likely.However, only if global monetary policy does not become significantly more restrictive, no regulatory shocks occur and progressive institutionalization continues.

Florysiak warns: “The forecast error remains very high on this time horizon: even models with extensive macro-financial information only produce very broad forecast corridors over the medium term.”In stress scenarios - such as recession or geopolitical shocks - a level below the all-time high is also realistic.

Dovile Silenskyte from the asset manager Wisdomtree, however, is more specific.She predicts that by the end of 2026, Bitcoin could be above the current all-time high of just over $126,000, which was reached in early October 2025.The most important driver here is the investments of institutional investors.

Joshua Krüger from the crypto organization Deuro Association is even more optimistic: “A Bitcoin price of 150,000 to 175,000 US dollars is realistic by the end of 2026,” he thinks. Krüger refers to changing market dynamics, which are characterized by the massive entry of institutional investors, regulatory framework conditions and the increasing dominance of large market players.

Bitcoin: Despite possible upward trend, risks remain significant

Despite increasing professionalization, all experts surveyed expect continued high volatility.Florysiak explains that this is structurally inherent in the Bitcoin market: limited supply, high levels of speculation, 24/7 trading and a market in which leveraged products and non-professional investors play an important role.Empirical studies show that Bitcoin has significantly higher volatility and “pronounced extreme movements” (tail risks) compared to traditional asset classes.

He differentiates between two levels of factors:

  • Idiosyncratic, crypto-specific factors such as security incidents at Exchanges, problems with major stablecoins or market shocks caused by leveraged derivatives.
  • And systematic, macroeconomic and political factors: Bitcoin is increasingly reacting like a high-risk investment to global liquidity, interest rate expectations, stock market developments and risk appetite.

"Structurally, I don't see any 'new' sources of volatility until 2026 that would be fundamentally different than today - rather a continuation of the interaction of crypto-specific shocks and classic systematic risk factors," he says.

The other experts also see macroeconomic developments as a central adjusting screw.Krüger emphasizes that the further action of the US Federal Reserve regarding US key interest rates could be decisive here.Geopolitical crises such as the further course of the Ukraine war could also cause strong fluctuations in the short term.

Positive impulses could, however, come from a possible Bitcoin state reserve in the USA, according to Krüger.The federal state has already begun the structured development of a strategic reserve.If this development could also be observed in other states, it would send further strong signals.

Will Bitcoin become digital gold? The role as a store of value

When it comes to the question of the future role of Bitcoin, there is widespread agreement among experts: The cryptocurrency will grow significantly faster as a store of value than as a means of payment.

Florysiak expects only limited additional acceptance as a payment method by 2026.Research clearly shows that Bitcoin's high volatility limits its function as a stable medium of exchange.In addition to classic cryptocurrencies, digital means of payment are also emerging that are very close to fiat currencies such as euros or dollars.

Silenskyte shares this assessment: “In 2026, Bitcoin is unlikely to find much wider use as an everyday means of payment.”Other blockchains with higher throughput and lower transaction costs are better optimized for this role.

The acceptance of Bitcoin as a store of value, however, is likely to continue to increase.“In an environment where investors continue to worry about the long-term consequences of expansionary monetary policy, Bitcoin’s fixed supply and decentralized design offer an alternative to traditional fiat systems,” she explains.

Please note:

Stocks, real estate and other investments generally involve risk.A total loss of the capital invested cannot be ruled out.Loans can also represent a significant financial burden.Consumers should carefully consider their financial situation and calculate all costs thoroughly.The published articles, data and forecasts are not a solicitation to buy or sell securities or rights and do not replace professional advice.

Krüger, on the other hand, sees it more differentiated: “Bitcoin is simply too volatile for everyday purchases - stablecoins such as Tether, USDC or dEURO are gaining ground here because they have stable prices and can be billed immediately.”Things look different in the state and institutional sectors.If states like the United Arab Emirates are already accepting tax payments in Bitcoin, that shows where the journey is headed. As an everyday currency, Bitcoin remains a niche, but as a digital store of value it could be more widely accepted in 2026 than it is today.

The most convenient charting option for any asset on Forex is Japanese candlesticks.The information content and clarity of the data provided about the market situation have long enjoyed great popularity among all traders.It is the analysis of Japanese candlesticks that makes it possible to make forecasts about further price movements.

This technical analysis tool helps the trader identify and understand the sentiment and psychology of the market.

What are Japanese candlesticks

The technical analysis of candlesticks helps any trader to correctly read asset charts and correctly determine support and resistance levels. They combine the type of price line with a type of interval chart. The chart perfectly displays the price fluctuations of all assets over a certain period of time.

For a more complete understanding of the tool, you should take a closer look at its components:

  • body, a rectangle;
  • Shadow – a line emanating from the body.

These two components visually resemble a candle. Each of them shows price changes over a certain period of time. Candlestick chart analysis is a great help in making market forecasts. In addition, in this case they also do without computer indicators. They can also predict the reaction of bidders to certain events.

Рис. 1

A significant advantage of such a chart is that the candle is the equivalent of several indicators: opening and closing times, information about the dominance of sellers or buyers in the market. Each candlestick element corresponds to the time frame in which it is displayed. At the time interval M1, one candle shows the price change in a minute, at 5M – in 5 minutes, at 15M – in 15 minutesetc.

In addition, candlestick elements represent various graphic figures on the screen of the trading terminal, which are used by traders to open (close) buy or sell orders. Therefore, a Japanese candlestick chart greatly simplifies a comprehensive study of any market. By recognizing this or that pattern in time, the trader has the opportunity to draw up a trading plan and, in accordance with his points, make trades and make a profit.

Information of Japanese candlesticks in the chart

How to read Japanese candlesticks on a chart?This question is invariably asked by novice traders.

The information provided by candles at all time periods is similar to:

  • Opening offer for a specific period (Open);
  • Final offer for the same period (Close);
  • Minimum price for the period (Low);
  • Maximum price for the period (High).

Рис. 2

The figure shows that the opening and closing quotes frame the candle element. It is usually called the body. The thin threads that run up and down the body are the shadow, sometimes called the wick.

It is customary to distinguish between bullish (rising) and bearish (falling) versions of a candle. In the first case, its formation occurs from bottom to top. Here, the opening price serves as the lower limit, the closing price serves as the upper limit. Typically, such candles on the MT4 terminal chart are colorless or green. A bearish candle is the exact opposite of a bullish candle. Formed from top to bottom, colored red or black. The opening priceis the upper limit, the closing price is the lower limit.

In some cases, the body of the Japanese candle is missing. This happens when the opening price is equal to the closing price. Sometimes there are missing wicks in the candle element. Here all the parameters: opening quotes, closing quotes, minimum and maximum are equal to each other.

Reading Japanese Candles

Japanese candlesticks, how to read them correctly?The study of such charts involves identifying graphic patterns in the form of combinations of candlestick elements.There are a whole range of similar models represented by several elements, and each of them has a specific name: “Hammer”, “Hanged Man”, “Shooting Star”, “Doji”, “Tombstone”, “Harami” andothers.

Рис. 3

Each of these patterns signals the moment of market entry. There are trend continuation models and trend reversal models. The latter represent the vast majority.

When analyzing Japanese candlesticks in trading, you should consider important features:

  • all research is best done on a daily time frame. At shorter time intervals, the reliability of the signals emanating from candlestick patterns decreases. The smaller the time frame, the lower the reliability;
  • The forecast of long-term trends is carried out in monthly and weekly time intervals;
  • after the appearance of reversal patterns, the trend does not always change. Sometimes there is a trend correction or flattening. Therefore, the reversal model is more likely to predict a change in the current market situation.

This is explained by the balance between sellers and buyers. The more orders are opened in one direction, the higher the probability of a reversal. Market makers closely monitor the market and, with a certain number of trading participants, “lower” the price, forcing it to reverse, correct or stop.

  • Patterns with price differences are more reliable.
  • Each combination of candlesticks must be confirmed. For example, if a bullish pattern has formed in the market, the subsequent candlestick should indicate market expectations.

Representation of market psychology in candlesticks

How to analyze Japanese candlesticks?The answer to this question helps to understand the psychology of the market, that is, the intentions of the majority of sellers and buyers.Even beginners can, with a little effort, learn to analyze candlestick elements to predict further trend movements.

One of the most important parameters of a candle is the size of its body. Its length indicates the pressure of the bull or bear market. If the body of a large candle (compared to neighboring candles) has a white (green) color, it means that a bullish mood prevails and buyers have gained the upper hand over sellers. The confident victory of sellers is reflected in a large dark (red) body. Its insignificant size indicates an approximate equality of power between buyers and sellers. This means a rollback(Correction) of the prevailing trend or a further downward movement is very likely. In such cases, the trend “freezes” for a while before the next increase or decrease occurs.

When a bullish candle appears on the trading terminal screen, formed after a long downward trend, there is every reason to assume that an uptrend is emerging. And the closing of a bullish candle above the resistance line indicates that the market has strengthened at a new price level. However, such a statement is made only after the completion of the formation of the candle element. To view this process in more detail, you should go to a shorter time frameswitch.

The tail (wick, often called the pin bar) emanating from the body reflects the mood of trading participants, or more precisely, its change during the formation of the candle itself. A pin bar is often a harbinger of a change in the prevailing trend or its continuation after a corresponding price decline. Long wicks tend to form near a strongly tested but not broken level.

When the battle between buyers and sellers reaches its peak, dojis with long pin bars appear on the screen. This indicates the indecision of market participants - against the background of active trading, there is no result.

Candle Mood

This concept was proposed by Lance Begs, a famous Forex trader and price action algorithm specialist.

Sentiment depends on the position of the closing price relative to the previous candlestick element. It is customary to distinguish between several types of sentiments:

  • bullish.Closing price above last high;
  • bearish.Close the period below the previous low;
  • neutral.Last candle close in the area of the previous candle.

The individual types can be high, low and medium. This is the intensity of the mood. It is determined depending on the place in the candle area where it was closed.

Candlestick chart research

Japanese candlesticks, whose technical analysis is in no way comparable to other graphical market research, can provide the trader with a lot of useful information about upcoming market changes.

Candle bodies are of primary importance and their shadows are of secondary importance.Wicks are considered market noise, but should be taken into account in every trade.

Graphic studies like this take certain basic principles into account:

  • long bodies with short wicks form the basis for the development of a new trend. This is a pronounced superiority of buyers over sellers or vice versa, the sellers versus the buyers. Typically, the longest candlestick bodies are at the beginning and end of a trend. If the order was opened following a trend, the appearance of long body elements is a signal to close the deal;

Рис. 7

  • Short body, long wick candlesticks often appear during a trend reversal. The best sign of this is an element in which one shadow is extremely longer than the other shadow and the body. This is how the battle between bulls and bears is depicted, in which one initially won and in the end the championship went to the other;
  • Bodies and wicks of smaller size appear when sideways trends occur. At this moment, you can open orders with small stop losses (stop loss).

Conclusions

The use of Japanese candlesticks is characterized by both positive aspects and certain difficulties. The reliability of these elements, unlike computer indicators, allows studying the price itself, and not mathematical calculations. Candles are universal. They apply to asset charts of all markets - currency, raw materials, stocks, etc.

However, novice traders have some difficulties in mastering it. It takes some effort and time to thoroughly understand candlestick analysis. But the results of your work will definitely not be in vain and will help you make good money.

The most convenient charting option for any asset on Forex is Japanese candlesticks.The information content and clarity of the data provided about the market situation have long enjoyed great popularity among all traders.It is the analysis of Japanese candlesticks that makes it possible to make forecasts about further price movements.

This technical analysis tool helps the trader identify and understand the sentiment and psychology of the market.

What are Japanese candlesticks

The technical analysis of candlesticks helps any trader to correctly read asset charts and correctly determine support and resistance levels. They combine the type of price line with a type of interval chart. The chart perfectly displays the price fluctuations of all assets over a certain period of time.

For a more complete understanding of the tool, you should take a closer look at its components:

  • body, a rectangle;
  • Shadow – a line emanating from the body.

These two components visually resemble a candle. Each of them shows price changes over a certain period of time. Candlestick chart analysis is a great help in making market forecasts. In addition, in this case they also do without computer indicators. They can also predict the reaction of bidders to certain events.

Рис. 1

A significant advantage of such a chart is that the candle is the equivalent of several indicators: opening and closing times, information about the dominance of sellers or buyers in the market. Each candlestick element corresponds to the time frame in which it is displayed. At the time interval M1, one candle shows the price change in a minute, at 5M – in 5 minutes, at 15M – in 15 minutesetc.

In addition, candlestick elements represent various graphic figures on the screen of the trading terminal, which are used by traders to open (close) buy or sell orders. Therefore, a Japanese candlestick chart greatly simplifies a comprehensive study of any market. By recognizing this or that pattern in time, the trader has the opportunity to draw up a trading plan and, in accordance with his points, make trades and make a profit.

Information of Japanese candlesticks in the chart

How to read Japanese candlesticks on a chart?This question is invariably asked by novice traders.

The information provided by candles at all time periods is similar to:

  • Opening offer for a specific period (Open);
  • Final offer for the same period (Close);
  • Minimum price for the period (Low);
  • Maximum price for the period (High).

Рис. 2

The figure shows that the opening and closing quotes frame the candle element. It is usually called the body. The thin threads that run up and down the body are the shadow, sometimes called the wick.

It is customary to distinguish between bullish (rising) and bearish (falling) versions of a candle. In the first case, its formation occurs from bottom to top. Here, the opening price serves as the lower limit, the closing price serves as the upper limit. Typically, such candles on the MT4 terminal chart are colorless or green. A bearish candle is the exact opposite of a bullish candle. Formed from top to bottom, colored red or black. The opening priceis the upper limit, the closing price is the lower limit.

In some cases, the body of the Japanese candle is missing. This happens when the opening price is equal to the closing price. Sometimes there are missing wicks in the candle element. Here all the parameters: opening quotes, closing quotes, minimum and maximum are equal to each other.

Reading Japanese Candles

Japanese candlesticks, how to read them correctly?The study of such charts involves identifying graphic patterns in the form of combinations of candlestick elements.There are a whole range of similar models represented by several elements, and each of them has a specific name: “Hammer”, “Hanged Man”, “Shooting Star”, “Doji”, “Tombstone”, “Harami” andothers.

Рис. 3

Each of these patterns signals the moment of market entry. There are trend continuation models and trend reversal models. The latter represent the vast majority.

When analyzing Japanese candlesticks in trading, you should consider important features:

  • all research is best done on a daily time frame. At shorter time intervals, the reliability of the signals emanating from candlestick patterns decreases. The smaller the time frame, the lower the reliability;
  • The forecast of long-term trends is carried out in monthly and weekly time intervals;
  • after the appearance of reversal patterns, the trend does not always change. Sometimes there is a trend correction or flattening. Therefore, the reversal model is more likely to predict a change in the current market situation.

This is explained by the balance between sellers and buyers. The more orders are opened in one direction, the higher the probability of a reversal. Market makers closely monitor the market and, with a certain number of trading participants, “lower” the price, forcing it to reverse, correct or stop.

  • Patterns with price differences are more reliable.
  • Each combination of candlesticks must be confirmed. For example, if a bullish pattern has formed in the market, the subsequent candlestick should indicate market expectations.

Representation of market psychology in candlesticks

How to analyze Japanese candlesticks?The answer to this question helps to understand the psychology of the market, that is, the intentions of the majority of sellers and buyers.Even beginners can, with a little effort, learn to analyze candlestick elements to predict further trend movements.

One of the most important parameters of a candle is the size of its body. Its length indicates the pressure of the bull or bear market. If the body of a large candle (compared to neighboring candles) has a white (green) color, it means that a bullish mood prevails and buyers have gained the upper hand over sellers. The confident victory of sellers is reflected in a large dark (red) body. Its insignificant size indicates an approximate equality of power between buyers and sellers. This means a rollback(Correction) of the prevailing trend or a further downward movement is very likely. In such cases, the trend “freezes” for a while before the next increase or decrease occurs.

]]> For the first time, silver prices crossed $80.

As the XAG/USD chart shows, the price of an ounce of silver reached $83 this morning for the first time in history, but was followed by an unusually strong downward move.

As the XAG/USD chart shows, the price of an ounce of silver reached $83 this morning for the first time in history, but was followed by an unusually strong downward move.

Why did the price of silver fall?

On December 24th, we not only described the fundamentals, but also pointed out that the market is vulnerable to strong price movements due to reduced liquidity during the holidays.

Now that the ATR indicator has risen sharply and confirmed our assumption, let's look at the important details on the chart that reflect bearish signs

Technical analysis of the XAG/USD chart

The previously constructed ascending channel (shown in orange) maintained the tilt angle while:

→ The rise in silver prices on December 26 (represented by the arrow) with a bullish gap extended the channel up by 2x.

→ At the beginning of today's trading, the price broke into the zone above the upper boundary with another bullish gap (represented by the second arrow).

It is important to note that:

→ A sharp rise in silver prices to historic highs may have been triggered by a lack of liquidity among sellers as financial markets opened in the final week of the year.

→ The aggressive nature of the subsequent decline to $75 appears to be a clear sign of a change in market sentiment.

→ Wide candles indicate the activity of “smart money”.

Given the above, it is reasonable to assume that large long positions are busy taking profits after the price of silver has risen by around 160% since the beginning of 2025. If this hypothesis is correct, we could see a breakdown of the lower boundary of the constructed orange channel and a subsequent decline that could occur in the first few days of 2026.
