CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate & CME CF Bitcoin Real Time Index CME ETH_RR_USD Ethereum Reference Rate & CME ETH_RTI_USD Ethereum Real Time IndexTrading Summary Notes for Friday, 6/1/2018
- BITCOIN drifts lower, ETHEREUM adds a couple bucks, GOLD drops $6.00
- Cryptos (BITCOIN, ETHEREUM) stalled with lack of interest. “Dead money” for a while?”
- U.S./N.K. summit back on, tariffs back on too. Nothing big to move markets
- Uncertainty, geopolitical events, dollar, interest rates, etc not moving markets currently
- GOLD moving up and down slightly around $1,300. Down today. No conviction right now
- Trading ranges getting smaller as trading interest dries up. Choppy (not volatile) markets may be here for a while
- Currently neutral on gold, long term bullish on BTC & ETH
CURRENT TRADING POSITION:
LONG BITCOIN
