Santa’s Trading Wish Inside...

MARKET NEWS: 🪙Bitcoin Reaches $100K: Santa’s Gift or Just a Tease?

The crypto world witnessed history as Bitcoin briefly broke the $100K barrier, hitting a record $103K. The pullback? A mix of profit-taking and anticipation of U.S. interest rate updates.

The rally was fueled by optimism over incoming President Trump’s pro-crypto stance, including his appointment of David Sacks as the first-ever White House AI and Crypto Czar. This move, along with Trump’s crypto-friendly picks for key regulatory positions, has the market buzzing about a new era of deregulation.

Meanwhile, November’s Nonfarm Payrolls report showed a robust 227,000 jobs added, beating expectations and lifting U.S. indices. However, the labor market’s strength sparked fresh questions about how far the Fed will go with rate cuts, keeping traders on edge.

In other news, stocks climbed, with the NASDAQ up 0.7%, as earnings from Ulta, Lululemon, and DocuSign impressed Wall Street. Over in the oil market, Brent crude fell 1.2%, wrapping up a tough week on demand concerns despite OPEC+ extending supply cuts.

👉 Takeaway for Traders: Bitcoin’s retreat could present buying opportunities, but stay sharp—macro data and Fed decisions are likely to drive market moves. Keep an eye on tech and crypto sectors as Trump’s policies take shape.

📈 Trading Tip of the Week: Support and Resistance: Your Trading GPS 🧭

Want to navigate the markets like a pro? Mastering support and resistance is key. These critical price levels tell you when the market might reverse or push forward, making them essential for defining entry and exit points.

The Basics:

  • Support is where buyers step in, preventing further price drops.

  • Resistance is where sellers take charge, capping price advances.

But here’s the twist—when breached, these levels often switch roles. That support at $90K? If Bitcoin breaks below it, it could become resistance. This phenomenon, called role reversal, reflects a shift in market psychology.

Pro Tip: Use tools like trendlines, moving averages, and round numbers to chart support and resistance zones. Want to get hands-on? Platforms like BullRush let you practice these strategies in a risk-free, gamified environment.

👉 Trading Strategy: Buy near support, sell near resistance, and keep an eye on breakouts for trend reversals. The key is to stay disciplined and plan your moves around these levels.

With a little practice, support and resistance will become your go-to tools for smart, confident trading. 📈
