Simple Moving Averages

Bitcoin’s key moving averages are close to forming a fully bullish alignment for the first time since 2025. The setup follows a more than 40% third-quarter rise, but traders are watching whether BTC can stay above its 50-day average as momentum cools near $85,000.

USDJPY is holding near the ¥157.50 to ¥157.80 area after a sharp retreat from the ¥163.00 zone, with oversold technical signals supporting a tentative bounce. Traders are watching whether softer US jobs data and inflation signals can keep pressure on the pair, while fresh intervention remains a key risk.

Gold is stabilizing above the key $4,000 area as traders await the US Non-Farm Payrolls release for signals on the Federal Reserve’s policy path. Technical indicators still urge caution, with downward-sloping moving averages and resistance levels limiting confidence in a sustained rebound.
