Turkish Lira has week of volatility as government takes drastic action
https://i.postimg.cc/506Q0pdt/lira.jpg

The Turkish Lira has been a currency that has held the international limelight for a few months now, largely due to the massive volatility that it has been experiencing as Turkey's national economy struggles with outlandish levels of inflation.

Over the last few months, Turkey has been battling inflation levels of approximately 70%, and the its national currency, the Lira, has been the subject of detailed analysis in that it has faced a severe crisis.

The Turkish Lira, although not a major currency, is widely traded against majors such as the Euro, US Dollar, Swiss Franc, Japanese Yen and British Pound and as a result of this status, it has been an important currency to monitor recently as the economic circumstances which the Turkish economy has faced impinge on its value.

This week, the Turkish government took drastic action by enforcing a ban on companies based in Turkey which have significant reserves of foreign currency from taking loans.

This resulted in an increase in the value of the Turkish Lira, however yesterday the Turkish Lira actually whipsawed against the US Dollar as the most interesting stage in a four-day rally in value by the Turkish currency.

Whipsawing is a term used by traders which describes a pattern in a volatile market in which a sharp price movement is suddenly followed by a sharp reversal.

In the case of the Turkish Lira, the currency rallied against the US Dollar on Friday last week, at one point surging by 5% against the US Dollar, which is the highest it has gained this year.

Overall on Friday, the Turkish Lira had traded up 2.5%, which is the biggest gain of any currency in the world against the US Dollar during Friday's trading session.

As this week has progressed, the upward trend continued for the Lira until yesterday, when it whipsawed.

By Monday morning this week, the Turkish Lira had gained an impressive 8% against the US Dollar, trading at 16.01 compared to Thursday's close of 17.35.

However, on Monday afternoon, late into the European trading session, the Turkish Lira whipsawed within the 16 to 17 Lira per US Dollar range.

These volatile movements reflected the varied opinions of investors regarding the new ban on loans to companies which hold reserves of non-Turkish currency.

The policy, which affects around 10,000 businesses in Turkey, means that if those companies wish to obtain commercial loans, they would have to sell a sufficient amount of their non-Turkish currency reserves on the Forex market and then buy Lira instead. The idea of this is to attempt to bolster the value of the embattled Turkish Lira which has lost half of its value in the past 12 months.

The new rule stipulates that all companies which hold the equivalent of 15 million Turkish Lira in non-Turkish currency, cannot borrow lira if their FX funds exceed 10% of their assets or yearly sales. 15 million Turkish Lira is approximately $910,000.

Smaller companies which cannot take loans in non-Turkish currency are exempt from this ruling as long as their FX position is net, and they are allowed to borrow in Lira.

The government's stringent action is indicative of the crisis which the Lira faces, as the inflation level reached 73% recently, removing the purchasing power of the vast majority of the nation's citizens and businesses.

The Lira is clearly now a volatile currency against majors and therefore one to watch.

US Dollar's sustained rally is surprising the markets, especially against Bitcoin
https://i.postimg.cc/SNT1x1Jw/usd-btc.jpg

During the past few weeks, the US Dollar has been surprisingly strong against many western majors, notably the Euro and British Pound, despite the American and European economies facing very similar obstacles over the past two years.

This has been a particularly interesting dynamic, especially as the inflation levels among European Union member states, the United Kingdom and the United States are at levels not seen since the 1980s, and the geopolitical circumstances foist upon the citizens are similar.

The US Dollar also lost part of its status as a settlement instrument for global oil and gas purchasing a few months ago when the Russian government rolled out a new policy that ensures all Western buyers of oil and gas from Russia settle their deliveries in Rubles.

Despite all of this, the US Dollar has been performing well against its major peers, and perhaps more interestingly, against Bitcoin, too.

Last year, analysts in Wall Street predicted that the Bitcoin would go to $150,000 in value over the 'next few months'. This has not happened and in reality, Bitcoin' inverse correlation with the US Dollar actually hit a 17-month high yesterday.

It is unusual for analysts within Tier 1 banks in Wall Street to make incorrect predictions. They were right about the oil prices, afterall, when many analysts said in the summer of 2021 that Brent Crude would go to $80 per barrel by the autumn, as that is exactly what happened.

However, when it comes to Bitcoin, things have been less predictable, even by experts who have the credibility of a Tier 1 investment bank to uphold.

Bitcoin's current relatively low value has become a sustained circumstance, and now, market analysts are starting to comment that the US Dollar rally may either stll or correct by the end of 2022 against its fiat currency peers, which in turn may benefit Bitcoin.

This goes some way toward suggesting that Bitcoin is now almost behaving like an established currency in that its movements are less volatile than previously and than some altcoins, and that its future performance is being viewed via the same lens as the future performance of other major fiat currencies against the US dollar.

Importantly, the weekly correlation coefficient between Bitcoin and the US Dollar dropped to 0.77 below zero in the week ending July 3, its lowest in seventeen months.

It appears that investors are more confident in the performance of stock market indices than currencies during a time at which the central banks of Europe and the United States are engaged in interest rate increases as attempts to curb inflation.

The Federal Reserve Bank has invoked a series of rate hikes, as have the Bank of England and even the European Central Bank recently which invoked its first rate hike for several years.

Therefore, the currency market is in focus, and Bitcoin has lost 60% of its value so far in 2022, whereas the NASDAQ composite index, which is the home of many publicly listed technology companies, has only declined in returns by 29% over the same period.

As far as measuring the US Dollar against other currencies is concerned, the US Dollar is in a very good position as the US dollar index (DXY), which is a metric that measures its strength against a basket of top foreign currencies, has been recently consistent around its January 2003 highs of 105.78.

The fervent influx of new Bitcoin investors who took to the cryptocurrency market in 2021 after Elon Musk's famous tweet which collapsed the value of 5 popular cryptocurrencies by almost a trillion dollars has subsided. These were analytical investors who 'bought the dip' realizing that soon it would correct, and it did, soon after Elon Musk put out another tweet saying that the environmental factors he had previously cited had been resolved.

This level of volatility has not been experienced this year, and there are even market pundits saying that Bitcoin may have 'bottomed out', with one on-chain indicator predicting that Bitcoin could go to $15,600 as a low point this year.

It is an interesting time, and the fiat currency volatility, especially that of the US Dollar, and the tinderbox situation of many western economies plus the stagnancy of Bitcoin is a conundrum of a different nature to that of just a year ago.

We can clearly see a bullish doji star pattern above the $18900 handle which is a bullish reversal pattern because it signifies the end of a downtrend and a shift towards an uptrend.

Both the STOCH and STOCHRSI are indicating overbought levels which means that in the immediate short term a decline in the prices is expected.

Bitcoin is now moving below its 100 hourly simple moving average and its 200 hourly simple moving average.

All of the major technical indicators are giving a strong buy signal, which means that in the immediate short term, we are expecting targets of 20500 and 22000.

In the last 24hrs, BTCUSD has increased by 3.89% by 745$ and has a 24hr trading volume of USD 24.759 billion. We can see an increase of 61.73% in the trading volume as compared to yesterday, which is due to the buying seen at lower levels by the medium-term Investors.

The Week Ahead

The price of bitcoin is moving in a bullish momentum, and the immediate targets are $20500 and $21500. The daily RSI is printing at 35 which means that the medium range demand continues to be weak.

We can see that the prices of bitcoin have stabilized above the $19000 handle, and now we are looking at the important support levels of $18847 and $19150.

The price of BTCUSD will need to remain above the important support level of $19000 this week.

The weekly outlook is projected at $22500 with a consolidation zone of $20500.

GBP falls to 1.20 against the US Dollar amid British government uncertainty

https://i.postimg.cc/RFjGpyQY/gbp.jpg

The British Pound slid once again during the early hours of this morning to 1.20 against the US Dollar, signaling a return to the low point that it reached last week.

This morning's slump for the British Pound takes place during a time at which the current British government is in turmoil, with two senior ministers having resigned from their positions during the late hours of yesterday.

Rishi Sunak, the Chancellor of the Exchequer (Finance Minister) resigned, as did his colleague Sajid Javid, who had until yesterday held the position of Secretary of State for Health and Social Care.

This has raised a lot of speculation within the United Kingdom regarding the longevity of the current government, and whether prime minister Boris Johnson will follow suit, or whether he will hang onto his position until potentially ousted by his own party.

Either way, there is a reflection on the policies implemented over the past two years by the current government, including the fiscal policies of Rishi Sunak who has now made for the hills. Those included furlough schemes, which paid people to stay off work and comply with lockdowns, at great cost to the taxpayer and overall economic growth.

The blame for the cost of living crisis which is currently ongoing within the United Kingdom, and the increasing interest rates to curb inflation that is at a 40 year high is being laid at the door of the government, and therefore all eyes are on the next move from within Parliament.

Confidence in the British Pound this morning is therefore low, as it is very difficult to gauge whether the current government will soldier on, or whether an election may be called.

Meanwhile, the US Dollar continues its strong dynamic despite inflation levels in the United States being at their highest level in 40 years, and multiple interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve bank, and the Euro lags only marginally behind the US Dollar, with the European Central Bank having only made one interest rate rise during this period of high inflation across the Western world.

It is a volatile period as far as geopolitical activity is concerned, and the value of the GBPUSD is a clear demonstration of where the current market confidence lies.

Overall, Britain's economic situation is very stable, and perhaps more so than that of the United States on a very general level, but the policies and confidence in the current administration on both sides of the Atlantic is waning fast, with some of Britain's top ministers taking their final paychecks first.
