The U.S. and China agreed to a trade deal last week following President Donald Trump’s meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping in South Korea. Markets and analysts, however, treated the outcome as a tactical truce rather than a strategic reset, noting frictions over technology and industrial policy.

Brutal Reversal Incoming For BTC?

Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez spotted a broadening top pattern on Bitcoin’s chart, a bearish formation indicated by diverging trend lines and increasing price volatility.

"If this is indeed a broadening top, we could see a new all-time high first, followed by a brutal reversal," the analyst predicted. "Bitcoin might not be done yet!"

Michaël van de Poppe said that Bitcoin needs to break above $112,000 to be in "good territory" to target a new all-time high in November.
