Bitcoin (BTC) Price Analysis:  Direction Sought After Testing 41208 – 14 January 2024



Bitcoin (BTC/USD) awaited fresh technical guidance early in the Asian session as the pair attempted to pare some recent profit-taking selling activity that resulted in an acute decline to the 41444.97 area.  The move to this area represented a test of a downside price objective around the 41208.59 area that is related to recent selling pressure around the 49102.29 and 46368.85 levels.  Buying pressure later emerged around the 42495 area during the recovery, a test of a recent upside price objective related to recent buying activity around the 24900 and 34758.64 levels.  The recent high around the 49102.29 area was BTC/USD’s strongest print since late December 2021.

Large Stops were elected above the 47934, 48466, and 48647.72 levels during the appreciation, significant technical levels related to historical buying pressure and the all-time high of 69000.  Upside price objectives include the 51701, 52121, 52971, and 53370 levels.  Following the move to new multi-year highs, areas of technical support and potential buying pressure include the 42002, 41717, 41208, 39343, and 36329 levels.  Traders are observing that the 50-bar MA (4-hourly) is bullishly indicating above the 100-bar MA (4-hourly) and above the 200-bar MA (4-hourly).  Also, the 50-bar MA (hourly) is bearishly indicating below the 100-bar MA (hourly) and below the 200-bar MA (hourly).

Price activity is nearest the 200-bar MA (4-hourly) at 43809.63 and the 50-bar MA (Hourly) 44642.31.

Technical Support is expected around 42498.13/ 40625.68/ 37321.80 with Stops expected below.

Technical Resistance is expected around 51707.77/ 52121.96/ 53370.28 with Stops expected above.  

On 4-Hourly chart, SlowK is Bullishly above SlowD while MACD is Bearishly below MACDAverage.

On 60-minute chart, SlowK is Bullishly above SlowD while MACD is Bullishly above MACDAverage.

New Federal Reserve News Agency: Waller Hints "High Interest Rates Suppress AI Boom", Rate Hike Path Faces Two-way Dilemma

Timiraos believes that the Federal Reserve is caught in a dilemma of "needing two different interest rates." Waller openly questioned the "AI immunity theory," stating that interest rates would "find their way into every crevice," breaking the market consensus that the AI boom is unaffected by monetary policy. However, he also said strong growth does not necessarily lead to higher inflation or require rate hikes. These two contradictory signals have left Wall Street confused, and Bank of America strategists bluntly criticized the response as "neither clear nor convincing."

Google Cloud approaching Microsoft Azure, but Microsoft wins the "earnings day challenge"

Google and Microsoft released their quarterly reports on the same day, signaling a shift in the competitive landscape of cloud computing. Google Cloud's revenue surpassed $30 billion, approaching Microsoft Azure's $33 billion. However, with slower growth in search advertising, insufficient monetization of AI models, and free cash flow turning negative, Google’s stock price plunged 10% after hours. In contrast, Microsoft’s overall revenue grew 19% year-on-year to $92.3 billion, exceeding expectations and pushing its stock price up about 3%. In this round of "earnings season tests," Microsoft has temporarily taken the lead with a more stable AI commercialization strategy.
