Morning Crypto Clarity: February 8, 2024

February 8, 2024

Good morning, Welcome to your daily crypto clarity

 

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

After a positive day in the equity markets, Bitcoin and crypto prices have seen a strong rally.

Bitcoin dominance climbed on this recent move, pointing to further leadership out of Bitcoin relative to altcoins.

The talk of the town is Farcaster, a new platform for building decentralised social media applications.
 

 

FEATURED CHART

Here is Bitcoin since December of last year. The new highs list in crypto peaked two-months ago, and the price action since then has been choppy. The trading range to watch here is a zone between 45,000 and 40,000. With Bitcoin at the upper end of its range, we’re closely monitoring how prices fare over the coming days.

The Short Report (02-07-2024)

February 8, 2024

From the Desk of Steve Strazza @Sstrazza

When investing in the stock market, we always want to approach it as "a market of stocks."

Regardless of the environment, there are always stocks showing leadership and trending higher.

We may have to look harder to identify them depending on current market conditions. But there are always stocks that are going up.

The same can be said for weak stocks. Regardless of the environment, there are always stocks that are going down, too. 

We already have multiple scans focusing on stocks making new highs, such as Hall of Famers, Minor Leaguers, and the 2 to 100 Club.

We filter these universes for stocks that exhibit the best momentum and relative strength characteristics. 

Clearly, we spend a lot of time identifying and writing about leading stocks every week, via multiple reports.

However, we're also highlighting lagging stocks on a recurring basis.

Welcome to the Short Report.

[Options Premium] Houses Built on Quicksand?

February 7, 2024

Perhaps the title of this post is a bit dramatic. But it got your attention, yeah?

While the indexes continue to plow higher and higher, proving markets can stay irrational longer than bears can stay solvent, there continues to be signs piling up that a turn may be near at hand.

We're not saying that the long bull market is coming to an inglorious and permanent end. We're more of the belief that a well-deserved pause and/or pullback feels like a perfectly natural thing to happen somewhere around here.

So we're going to add another bearish bet to the board in a stock that is already showing signs of topping in a sector that might be ready to roll over.

Weakening Market Breadth

February 7, 2024

Market breadth can be a funny thing.

People think it's easy. People think they can just pull up some indicator and it's always going to tell them whether market breadth is good or bad.

But that's not how it works. Some indicators are more valuable in certain environments than others.

How to Profit From a Rising Dollar

February 6, 2024

From the Desk of Ian Culley @IanCulley

King Dollar reigns supreme, and its near-term rally shows no sign of slowing.

What can you do about it? 

You can profit from it.

Today, I’ll share with you three tactical setups for dollar strength. And they’re all close to triggering.

But, before I outline the trades, let’s look at the relationship between the dollar and stocks…

Last night, Alfonso dropped a stellar chart in Slack of the US Dollar Index $DXY overlaid with Consumer Staples $XLP relative to the S&P 500 $SPY:

The chart supports the inverse relationship between stocks and the US dollar that’s been in place for almost a decade.

The Bull Market Resets

February 6, 2024

As crypto markets continue to churn sideways following the Bitcoin spot ETF approvals, positioning data suggests a once-crowded consensus bullish sentiment has cooled down. This comes within the context of Bitcoin retesting its long-term resistance level near 46,000. It’s within these periods that excessive positioning and sentiment calms down and allows the market to recalibrate for its next move.
