ICP rallies 22%, then slips 8% – What comes next after this volatility?

The Vice President of Dfinity Foundation, Lomesh Dutta, said that the rise of AI-powered no-code tools for the generation and evolution of applications will enable secure, stable, tamper-resistant infrastructure.

This could help prevent the kind of outage that many crypto companies and Web3 applications faced in the aftermath of the AWS outage in October.

Dfinity Foundation is a non-profit organization that guides the Internet Computer [ICP] blockchain development.

These statements could have brought ICP back to the public eye, helping explain the recent rally. ICP gained 22.6% from Friday’s low, but has faced a minor pullback in recent hours of trading.

Profit-taking activity wipes out ICP’s November rally

The 3-day chart showed a bearish internal structure and a complete retracement of the November rally from $2.79 to $9.85. It was expected that the $5 and the $4.3 supports would be defended, but these expectations were proven wrong.

The DMI did not show a strong trend in progress, but its confusing signals served to capture the speed of the recent impulse move and the subsequent retracement. The OBV was slowly bleeding lower, and the MACD also displayed bearish momentum.

To flip the structure bullishly, ICP has to move back above $3.78.

The 4-hour chart showcased an imbalance at the $3.2 area, highlighted in white. This imbalance came after a bullish structure break on this timeframe. At the time of writing, ICP was facing a minor price dip, having shed 8.46% in under 12 hours.

The technical indicators were in favor of the bulls, but traders must remember that the higher timeframe structure is still bearish. Until a move beyond $3.78 comes about, traders need to be careful about taking bullish positions.

Assessing the next ICP move

The market-wide sentiment, especially for Bitcoin [BTC], remained mostly bearish. Until this changes bullishly, it remains likely that altcoins that make strong gains will run into heavy sell pressure from profit-taking activity.

Lower timeframe traders can look to buy ICP now, with a stop-loss below the local support at $2.9.

Traders’ call to action- remain bearish

Until the $3.78 level is breached by a 3-day timeframe candle close, swing traders can remain bearish. The 1-day timeframe also highlights the same local resistance as a key swing point.


Final Thoughts

  • The rise of AI-powered no-code tools that were brought to public attention recently could have helped Internet Computer post some of its recent gains.
  • The price action remained in favor of the bears over the past month, and traders should be wary of going long until the structure shifts bullishly.

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

The post Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve has made its first Fed rate cut this year following today’s FOMC meeting, lowering interest rates by 25 basis points (bps). This comes in line with expectations, while the crypto market awaits Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech for guidance on the committee’s stance moving forward. FOMC Makes First Fed Rate Cut This Year With 25 Bps Cut In a press release, the committee announced that it has decided to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 bps from between 4.25% and 4.5% to 4% and 4.25%. This comes in line with expectations as market participants were pricing in a 25 bps cut, as against a 50 bps cut. This marks the first Fed rate cut this year, with the last cut before this coming last year in December. Notably, the Fed also made the first cut last year in September, although it was a 50 bps cut back then. All Fed officials voted in favor of a 25 bps cut except Stephen Miran, who dissented in favor of a 50 bps cut. This rate cut decision comes amid concerns that the labor market may be softening, with recent U.S. jobs data pointing to a weak labor market. The committee noted in the release that job gains have slowed, and that the unemployment rate has edged up but remains low. They added that inflation has moved up and remains somewhat elevated. Fed Chair Jerome Powell had also already signaled at the Jackson Hole Conference that they were likely to lower interest rates with the downside risk in the labor market rising. The committee reiterated this in the release that downside risks to employment have risen. Before the Fed rate cut decision, experts weighed in on whether the FOMC should make a 25 bps cut or…
