ETH tops $4,100 after Friday’s flash crash

Ether, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is recovering excellently following Friday’s crash. The market crash saw ETH briefly touch the $3,500 region as it lost over 30% of its value within an hour.

However, the coin has now added 8.5% to its value over the last 24 hours and is now trading at $4,165 per coin. The crash was caused by President Trump announcing new tariffs against Chinese imports.

While commenting on the recent market events, Nick Forster, Founder at leading onchain options platform, Derive.xyz, stated that, on the day of the crash, options skew dropped sharply for both BTC and ETH, reflecting a rush into downside protection. Skew measures the relative demand for calls versus puts; a more negative value indicates higher demand for puts.

“Volatility spiked sharply across BTC and ETH markets. Typically, sharp selloffs only lift short-dated volatility (1-7 DTE) as traders expect near-term turbulence to subside. However, Friday’s downturn drove elevated volatility across all expiries, signaling expectations of sustained turbulence and a choppy road ahead,” Forster added. 

ETH could surge higher if the daily candle closes above $4,232 resistance

The ETH/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and inefficient thanks to Friday’s price action. ETH failed to find support around the daily level at $4,488 last week and dumped by over 20% on Friday. However, it has recovered slightly, closing above $4,150. At press time, ETH hovers at around $4,160.

Like Bitcoin, Ethereum’s MACD still supports the bearish view but could change soon as the buying pressure increases. The RSI of 54 is above the neutral 50, suggesting that buyers are regaining control of the market. 

If ETH continues its recovery and closes above the daily resistance at $4,232, the coin could surge higher towards the next key resistance level at $4,488. However, failure to overcome the $4,232 resistance could see ETH extend its decline toward the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level at $3,593 in the coming days.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
