WTI now looks at $90.00 and beyond. Prices of WTI continued its march north on Wednesday and reached new yearly highs past the $84.00 mark per barrel. The uptick was on the back of increasing open interest and volume, which is indicative that further gains appear in store in the very near term.

On the daily charts, despite the recent softness, BTC/USD has managed to hold quite strong support around 28500, roughly coinciding with the 89-day moving average and the lower edge of the Ichimoku cloud on the daily charts. Importantly, the fall in realized volatility hasn’t altered the higher-top-higher-bottom sequence established late last year, suggesting the interim trend remains up. Only a break below the June low of 24750 would trigger a reassessment of the overall bullish bias. (DailyFX)
After the sharp rise from the end of June, ETH/USD’s uptrend appears to have stalled. The recent minor retreat has brought ETH/USD toward strong converged support, including the 200-day moving average, and the 89-day moving average.

On the upside, the May and July highs of 2020-2030 are crucial barriers. (DailyFX)
