USDJPY Analysis Upon Japan Election Results

The pair has remained above the daily Ichimoku cloud for a month. While we could see a pullback on the jump in the early hours, if USD/JPY’s bullish sentiment continues, we could see a revisit of the 114.29 resistance level during today’s trading hours. The future cloud has turned bullish.

USDJPY Analysis Japan Election Results – Ichimoku Daily Setup

Final election results will be delayed until later on Monday because a typhoon that hit Japan on Sunday prevented votes from being counted in 12 precincts. But with the majority of votes counted, the Liberal Democrats and their coalition partner had won enough seats to reach the two-thirds mark.

LTC Dips Below Key Support Level Versus BTC, USD, EUR

Litecoin price has broken below the daily Ichimoku cloud, testing the 56.93 pivot level as traded versus the USD. The pivot level falls on the 38% Fibonacci retracement level, which retraces Litecoin’s long uptrend between April to September this year.

LTCUSD below Ichimoku Cloud – Daily Time Frame

After reaching the all-time high level of 98.18, LTC/USD dipped down to 33.68 in a matter of two weeks in September.

With the recent break below the Ichimoku cloud on the daily setup, we could expect another visit of the key support level of 46.78 in the coming months.

The pair’s drops this time-around could also partially be attributed to the USD strength across major counterparts. However, Litecoin’s price has also weakened against other currencies including EUR and Bitcoin.

Versus BTC, LTC has broken below the key support level of 0.0099, indicating further potential drops towards the 61% Fibonacci retracement level of 0.0070. This comes after a growing number of miners moving away from Bitcoin Cash and instead, mining Litecoin beginning of October. However, the explosion of Bitcoin above and beyond $6,000 might have made them change their minds.

January 2, 2026 No Comments

Bitcoin has entered 2026 under pressure, with prices pulling back after a volatile period that left many investors questioning whether the opportunity has passed. Headlines are once again split between fear and optimism, with some calling the recent drop a warning sign and others viewing it as a healthy reset.

The key question for investors now is not whether Bitcoin will remain volatile – but whether this moment represents risk, opportunity, or something most investors misunderstand.

December 12, 2025 No Comments

Western Digital Corporation (WDC) has been on a tear, its stock price soaring over 270% year-to-date as of early December 2025.

This massive growth isn’t just hype; it’s fueled by a perfect storm of events, including the strategic spin-off of its flash business, SanDisk, and an insatiable global demand for data storage driven by the AI revolution.

As a now “pure-play” Hard Disk Drive (HDD) manufacturer, WDC is uniquely positioned as the landlord for the internet’s exploding data. But with such a meteoric rise, is there still room for growth, or is the stock overheated?
