Yesterday’s BTC Market
Yesterday’s BTC market was in a straitjacket around $23,000.
The price rose from the $22,000 (approximately ¥2,850,000) level to the high $23,000 (approximately ¥3,000,000) range from dawn to early morning, but immediately stalled around $23,000, and thereafter traded in a narrow range.
BTC had fallen to the lower $22,000 range due to the drop in altcoins, but early yesterday morning, the Bank of Canada suggested a temporary suspension of interest rate hikes, and US stocks rebounded, and the value began to slowly recover.
After the closing of US stocks, Tesla announced its fourth quarter financial results and found that it had not sold BTC. BTC formed a small double-bottom and surged to the high $23,000 range with some short covering.
However, it quickly stalled and then continued to trade on the $23,000 level.
As we entered international time, the US GDP in the fourth quarter was better than expected, and although US stocks were on the high side, they fell back in disgust with the rise in long-term interest rates and other factors. US stocks eventually recovered to positive territory from the previous day, but the BTC market continues to trade at the same level, probably due to the impact of the $23,000 options strike that expires on Friday.
