Bitcoin price remains confined to an 8% range, waiting for catalysts—especially the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) decision on Bitcoin ETF applications. Earlier this week, the SEC rejected ProShares’ proposal, citing failure to meet Section 6(b)(5) of the Exchange Act, which requires measures to prevent market manipulation. Today, however, the agency announced it will reconsider that decision after reviewing all data submitted by the applicants.
The price has barely moved on the news—the rejection was already priced in. Technically, the Ichimoku Cloud is forming a new downward cloud, a strong sell signal. Bitcoin stays in negative territory.
