Weekly Analysis of BTC, ETH, and the Stock Market (Nov 4, 2024)
An overview of BTC, ETH, XAUT, and S&P500 charts, and the current cryptocurrency market dynamics.
On this page
Bitcoin (BTC)
Last week, Bitcoin attempted to reach a new all-time high but was unable to hold above $73,000. The correction has left Bitcoin trading between the support zone of $67,200–$68,200 and the resistance zone of $71,000–$72,200.
The most likely scenario is a renewed rally with a retest of the ATH zone. However, the upcoming U.S. elections could trigger a “sell the news” event, where widespread anticipation of growth leaves market makers with little choice but to initiate a substantial shakeout.
A short-term dip into the $63,000–$64,300 buyer zone remains possible, presenting a potential buying opportunity for BTC at a discount.

Ethereum (ETH)
ETH buyers have historically shown less strength than BTC bulls. Currently, ETH is trading within a narrow range between support at $2,410–$2,460 and resistance at $2,560–$2,640.
A breakout will likely depend on Bitcoin’s direction. If the uptrend continues, ETH could reach a local high of around $2,722.
However, a dip below $2,400 would signal a potential shift toward a short-term downtrend.

S&P 500 (SPX)
Last week, the S&P 500 continued its global uptrend, closing at $5,728 and sparking hope among buyers for a brief correction, creating entry opportunities for those yet to enter the market.
A correction toward support in the $5,400–$5,600 range could also be influenced by the U.S. elections, which are expected to catalyze volatility within the S&P 500 stocks.

Tether Gold (XAUT)
Gold continues its strong upward momentum without any corrections, as buyers prevent the price from falling into support zones and drive continuous new highs.
However, this week is likely to bring increased volatility across the entire market, including Tether Gold.
Potential buying opportunities for XAUT could be considered in buyer zones at $2,715–$2,737, $2,656, and $2,585–$2,620.

BTC Dominance, Altcoin Season Index, and Fear and Greed Index
Bitcoin’s dominance over other assets remains high, exceeding 60%. Interest in alternative coins is still low among most investors, causing the BTC dominance index to grow steadily without major corrections.

The Altcoin Season Index is currently at 24, indicating low interest in altcoin purchases and limited investor expectations for significant gains in altcoins.

Meanwhile, the Fear and Greed Index is at 70, staying in the “Greed” zone for several weeks. This suggests that buyers are poised to invest but may be waiting for a major market signal, potentially the upcoming U.S. elections.

Economic News
Alongside the U.S. presidential election on November 5, this week will bring several key macroeconomic updates:
- U.S. Services PMI (Tuesday, November 5)
- U.S. Crude Oil Inventories (Wednesday, November 6)
- Initial Jobless Claims and the Fed’s Interest Rate Decision (Thursday, November 7)
The next five days will be crucial for the global economy and are expected to impact cryptocurrency prices significantly. It may be wise to avoid aggressive trading during this period or, at minimum, to reduce risk exposure.
