The Euro has fallen pretty significantly against the Japanese yen during the trading session on Tuesday as we continue to see a lot of noisy behavior.
I think ultimately this is a situation where traders have to understand the fact that this is a very risk appetite sensitive pair.
Keep in mind that the Euro is considered to be much riskier than the Japanese yen.
Therefore, if we have a sudden “risk off” move, typically this pair will fall. You do get paid to hang on to this via swap. And I think we are going to continue to see buyers willing to jump in because of this fact.
And in fact, given the fact that we are right at the previous consolidation area, somewhere in this general vicinity, I think you will start to see buyers jumping back in. I have no interest shorting the euro against the Japanese yen anytime soon, at least not until we break down below the 165 yen level, which is over three handles away. To the upside, the 170 yen level is an area that could cause a little bit of resistance, but quite frankly, we have broken above a major resistance barrier. And now I think we will eventually find ourselves much higher that where we are now.
The Longer Term Target Could Be Much Higher
Eventually, we may find ourselves all the way up at the 175 yen region. All things being equal, this is a market that I think continues to be very noisy, but this pullback I think opens up the possibility of offering a little bit of value, which is exactly what this pair has needed over the last couple of weeks. So, with this, I’m bullish. I’m either waiting for a bounce or a break to the upside.

Bitcoin’s relief rally rose above $108,000, but the bulls may struggle to push and sustain the price above the all-time high of $111,980.
Several major altcoins have bounced off their recent lows but are not finding buyers at higher levels.
Bitcoin’s BTCUSD relief rally that started on Monday, following US President Donald Trump’s “total ceasefire” announcement between Israel and Iran, rose above $108,000, indicating sustained demand from the bulls.
Institutional investors did not stop buying despite increasing geopolitical tensions in the past few days, as seen from the 11 consecutive days of inflows into US spot Bitcoin exchange‑traded funds (ETFs). According to Farside Investors’ data, the ETFs attracted $3.35 billion in inflows starting June 9.
Bitcoin looks set to challenge the all-time high at $111,980, but the cryptocurrency markets may require a catalyst to hold on to the higher levels. The absence of a trigger may extend Bitcoin’s stay inside the range for some more time.
Could Bitcoin break out to a new all-time high, pulling altcoins higher? Let’s analyze the charts of the top 10 cryptocurrencies to find out.
Bitcoin price prediction
Bitcoin turned up sharply from $100,000 on Monday and rose above the moving averages, indicating solid buying at lower levels.
The 20-day exponential moving average ($105,154) has started to turn up, and the relative strength index (RSI) has jumped into positive territory, signaling that the bulls are back in the game. Sellers are expected to defend the zone between the downtrend line and the all-time high of $111,980.
If the price turns down from the overhead zone but finds support at the 20-day EMA, it signals that the bulls are buying on dips. The bulls will then again try to clear the overhead zone.
On the contrary, a slide below the moving averages suggests the BTCUSDT pair may consolidate between $111,980 and $98,200 for a while longer.
Ether price prediction
Ether ETHUSD turned up from the $2,111 level on Sunday and reached the 20-day EMA ($2.473) on Tuesday.
The 20-day EMA is flattening out, and the RSI is just below the midpoint, suggesting a balance between supply and demand. If the price rises above the moving averages, the ETHUSDT pair could rally to $2,738 and then to $2,879.
Contrary to this assumption, if the price turns down from the 20-day EMA and breaks below $2,323, it signals that bears are selling on rallies. The pair may then retest the solid support at $2,111.
XRP price prediction
XRP’s XRPUSD sharp bounce off the $2 support on Monday indicates that the bulls are vigorously defending the level.
Both moving averages have flattened out, and the RSI is near the midpoint, signaling that the range-bound action between $2 and $2.65 may continue for a few more days.
The next trending move is likely to begin if buyers drive the price above $2.65 or sellers pull the XRPUSDT pair below $2. If the $2 support breaks down, the pair could decline to the $1.61 level. On the upside, a break above $2.65 clears the path for a rally to $3 and then to $3.40.
BNB price prediction
BNB BNBUSD turned up from the support line of the descending channel pattern on Sunday and reached the resistance line on Wednesday.
If buyers do not give up much ground from the resistance line, the prospects of a break above the channel improve. The BNBUSDT pair could ascend to $675 and, after that, to $698.
Contrarily, a break below $625 suggests that the bears are aggressively defending the resistance line. The pair may then tumble to the support line near $580, extending the stay inside the channel for a few more days.
Solana price prediction
Solana SOLUSD turned up from $126 on Sunday and broke above the breakdown level of $140 on Monday.
The recovery is facing selling at the 20-day EMA ($147), but a positive sign is that the bulls have not allowed the price to slide below $140. A shallow pullback increases the possibility of a break above the 20-day EMA. If that happens, the SOLUSDT pair could climb to the 50-day SMA ($160).
Sellers will have to pull and sustain the price below the $140 support to prevent the upside. The pair could then drop to $123 and eventually to $110.
Dogecoin price prediction
Dogecoin DOGEUSD rebounded off the $0.14 support on Sunday, but the relief rally may face selling at the 20-day EMA ($0.17).
If the price turns down sharply from the 20-day EMA, the bears will make one more attempt to pull the DOGEUSDT pair below $0.14. If they manage to do that, the pair could tumble to the solid support at $0.10.
Alternatively, if buyers push the price above the 20-day EMA, the next stop could be the 50-day SMA ($0.20). Sellers will try to halt the recovery at the 50-day SMA, keeping the pair inside the $0.14 to $0.21 range for some more time.
Cardano price prediction
Cardano (ADA) rebounded off the $0.50 support on Sunday, but the recovery is likely to face selling at the moving averages.
If the price turns down from the 20-day EMA ($0.61), it suggests that the bears are selling on every minor rally. That increases the risk of a break below the $0.50 support. If that happens, the ADAUSDT pair could slump to $0.40.
Instead, if buyers pierce the 20-day EMA, the pair could reach the 50-day SMA ($0.69). Sellers are expected to defend the zone between the 50-day SMA and the downtrend line, but if the bulls prevail, the pair will signal a potential trend change.
Hyperliquid price prediction
Hyperliquid (HYPE) rebounded off the 50-day SMA ($33.37) on Monday and rose above the 20-day EMA ($37.13).
If buyers maintain the price above the 20-day EMA, the HYPE/USDT pair could surge to $42.50. Buyers may find it difficult to push the price above the $42.50 to $45.80 resistance zone.
On the downside, a break below the 20-day EMA signals a lack of buyers at higher levels. That opens the doors for a fall to the 50-day SMA and later to the crucial support at $30.50.
Bitcoin Cash price prediction
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) turned up from the 20-day EMA ($450) on Wednesday, indicating that lower levels continue to attract buyers.
The price has reached the overhead resistance of $500, where the bears are expected to mount a strong defense. However, if buyers do not cede much ground to the bears, it increases the likelihood of a break above $500. If that happens, the BCHUSDT pair could surge to $550.
This positive view will be invalidated in the near term if the price turns down and breaks below the 50-day SMA ($424). The pair may then plunge to $375.
Sui price prediction
Sui (SUI) turned up sharply on Monday and reached the 20-day EMA ($2.94) on Tuesday, where the bears are posing a stiff challenge.
The downsloping 20-day EMA and the RSI in the negative territory signal that bears hold the edge. Sellers will try to pull the price toward the $2.29 to $2 support zone, but the buyers are likely to have other plans.
The bulls will try to arrest the decline and push the price above the 20-day EMA. If they manage to do that, the SUIUSDT pair could climb to the 50-day SMA ($3.39). Such a move suggests the correction may be over.

GBP/USD moves sideways slightly above 1.3600 on Wednesday.
The pair could struggle to extend its weekly rally in case markets turn cautious.
The technical outlook suggests that the bullish stance remains unchanged in the near term.
Following a late Monday rally, GBP/USD preserved its bullish momentum on Tuesday and reached its highest level since January 2022 near 1.3650. The pair stays relatively quiet early Wednesday and fluctuates in a narrow band slightly above 1.3600.

The heat map shows percentage changes of major currencies against each other. The base currency is picked from the left column, while the quote currency is picked from the top row. For example, if you pick the British Pound from the left column and move along the horizontal line to the US Dollar, the percentage change displayed in the box will represent GBP (base)/USD (quote).
Risk flows continued to dominate the action in financial markets in the first half of the day on Tuesday as investors cheered news of the Iran-Israel ceasefire. As a result, the US Dollar (USD) struggled to find demand and allowed GBP/USD to push higher.
In the American session, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s cautious comments on policy-easing helped the USD find a foothold. Powell told the House Financial Services Committee that they are not in a rush to cut rates, noting that they expect a meaningful increase in inflation this year because of tariffs.
Meanwhile, Bank of England (BoE) Governor Andrew Bailey told the Lords Economic Affairs Committee on Tuesday that they are starting to observe labor market softening. Additionally, BoE Deputy Governor Dave Ramsden said that if evidence becomes stronger that inflation will undershoot the target, they can speed up rate cuts. Although these comments failed to trigger an immediate market reaction, they might be contributing to GBP/USD’s indecisive action midweek.
The economic calendar will not feature any high-impact macroeconomic data releases later in the day. Hence, investors could react to changes in risk perception. In case Wall Street’s main indexes correct lower following Tuesday’s risk rally, the USD could gather strength and make it difficult for GBP/USD to hold its ground.
GBP/USD Technical Analysis
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator on the 4-hour chart holds above 60, suggesting that the bullish bias remains intact. On the upside, 1.3630 (static level) aligns as an immediate resistance level ahead of 1.3700 (static level, round level) and 1.3740 (static level).
Looking south, support levels could be seen at 1.3580 (static level), 1.3530 (100-period Simple Moving Average) and 1.3500 (static level, round level).
Pound Sterling FAQs
The Pound Sterling (GBP) is the oldest currency in the world (886 AD) and the official currency of the United Kingdom. It is the fourth most traded unit for foreign exchange (FX) in the world, accounting for 12% of all transactions, averaging $630 billion a day, according to 2022 data.
Its key trading pairs are GBP/USD, also known as ‘Cable’, which accounts for 11% of FX, GBP/JPY, or the ‘Dragon’ as it is known by traders (3%), and EUR/GBP (2%). The Pound Sterling is issued by the Bank of England (BoE).
The single most important factor influencing the value of the Pound Sterling is monetary policy decided by the Bank of England. The BoE bases its decisions on whether it has achieved its primary goal of “price stability” – a steady inflation rate of around 2%. Its primary tool for achieving this is the adjustment of interest rates.
When inflation is too high, the BoE will try to rein it in by raising interest rates, making it more expensive for people and businesses to access credit. This is generally positive for GBP, as higher interest rates make the UK a more attractive place for global investors to park their money.
When inflation falls too low it is a sign economic growth is slowing. In this scenario, the BoE will consider lowering interest rates to cheapen credit so businesses will borrow more to invest in growth-generating projects.
Data releases gauge the health of the economy and can impact the value of the Pound Sterling. Indicators such as GDP, Manufacturing and Services PMIs, and employment can all influence the direction of the GBP.
A strong economy is good for Sterling. Not only does it attract more foreign investment but it may encourage the BoE to put up interest rates, which will directly strengthen GBP. Otherwise, if economic data is weak, the Pound Sterling is likely to fall.
Another significant data release for the Pound Sterling is the Trade Balance. This indicator measures the difference between what a country earns from its exports and what it spends on imports over a given period.
If a country produces highly sought-after exports, its currency will benefit purely from the extra demand created from foreign buyers seeking to purchase these goods. Therefore, a positive net Trade Balance strengthens a currency and vice versa for a negative balance.

On the hourly chart, the rate of ADA might have set a local support of $0.5744. If the daily bar closes far from that level, the upward move may continue to the resistance by tomorrow.
On the longer time frame, the price of ADA has once again bounced off the resistance level. However, one should pay attention to the daily candle’s closure.

If it happens above that mark, there is a chance of witnessing a test of the $0.60 zone.
From the midterm point of view, the rate is rising after a false breakout of the support of $0.5192. However, buyers need more time to accumulate energy for a further move. In this case, sideways trading in the range of $0.57-$0.62 is the most likely scenario.
Open Loot (OL) might be the only platform in the space that has actually figured out how to make Web3 gaming work at scale. While the rest of the industry clings to hope, OL is quietly delivering what survival really looks like:
70,676 unique purchasers
$208.13 million in primary sales
$540.09 million in total marketplace volume
In an ecosystem flooded with hypotheticals, OL has become the exception—it works.
The Survival Blueprint: What OL Does Differently
What kills most Web3 games isn’t bad design; it’s the friction. Complex wallets, crypto literacy barriers, cross-chain confusion, and regulatory missteps all eat user adoption before gameplay even begins.
OL’s stack solves this:
✅ White-label wallets mean no Metamask, no browser extensions
✅ Fiat onramps + KYC make onboarding global and compliant
✅ Marketplace + cross-game identity creates a network effect of real players
✅ Built-in SDKs let devs ship games, not infrastructure
In other words, OL handles the plumbing so studios can focus on fun. And when games are fun and easy to access, people play. And they buy.
The Ecosystem That’s Already Surviving
These games aren’t waiting around for a bull market—they’re shipping, growing, and transacting now:

Silver (XAG/USD) trims losses near $35.80 after hitting an intraday low of $35.28 on Tuesday.
Last week’s surge to 13-year highs fueled by safe-haven flows and tight supply now faces healthy profit-taking.
Spot price tests critical rising trendline and 21-day EMA support near $35.50–$35.60.
Silver (XAG/USD) reverses course during the American session on Tuesday after spending most of the day drifting lower from an intraday high of $36.20. At the time of writing, the metal is trading near $35.80, slightly above the session low of $35.28, but still down around 0.65% on the day as traders test key trendline support.
Last week, Silver pushed to fresh 13-year highs as investors flocked to the metal for its safe-haven appeal. Strong industrial demand and tightening supply added fuel to the surge. However, the momentum has cooled since then, with the recent dip reflecting healthy profit-taking and reduced liquidity in the market.
From a technical perspective, Silver’s daily chart remains constructive but is flashing early signs of fatigue. Tuesday’s drop pulled XAG/USD back toward its rising trendline support, which has guided the uptrend since mid-April. This trendline, reinforced by the 21-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) near $35.50–$35.60, has repeatedly acted as a springboard for fresh buying.
A decisive daily close below this zone would raise the risk of a deeper correction, potentially exposing the next key support around $34.50 — a former resistance level now expected to act as a solid floor if the pullback deepens.
Momentum indicators highlight this tug-of-war between buyers and sellers. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has cooled to 56.50, down from recent overbought conditions but still comfortably above the neutral 50 level, suggesting the broader trend retains a bullish bias. Meanwhile, the MACD histogram has shifted marginally negative, indicating a waning upward momentum in the near term. Price action shows repeated long lower wicks on recent candles, underscoring that bulls continue to step in aggressively on dips.
If Silver manages to sustain a bounce from current levels, the rally could regain traction toward $36.50, with a potential extension toward the psychological $37.00 barrier if buying pressure intensifies.
The US dollar found itself rather soft against the Japanese yen during trading on Tuesday, as we have broken below the ¥146 level quite drastically.
I think ultimately, we are looking at this as a scenario where we are just simply going to move on the idea of risk appetite and where that is going.
The market is likely to continue to pay close attention to the ¥145 level, which is where we crashed into and started to find a little bit of buying pressure.
Technical Analysis
The technical analysis for this pair is starting to flatten out a bit, as we had previously been so horribly negative. With this being the case, the market is likely to continue to see buyers underneath, especially if we get anywhere near the ¥142 level, an area that has been important a couple of times. If we were to break down below that level it would be a bit surprising to me, but it of course is possible.
On the upside, if we can break back above the ¥146 level, then I think we have the possibility of a move back to the 200 Day EMA, essentially where we had peaked during the trading session on Monday.
If we were to break above that 200 Day EMA and by extension, the ¥148 level, the market would more likely than not really start to take off, perhaps targeting the crucial ¥150 level. Anything above there opens of a longer-term “buy-and-hold” type of scenario. While I don’t necessarily expect that to happen easily, it is something that’s very realistic if we get a sudden run to the US dollar. The interest rate differential continues to favor the US dollar against the Japanese yen, so I don’t like shorting this pair, unless it is for a very short term move. I think we are in the midst of trying to find the longer term bottom, which of course is very noisy.
