PANews reported on January 29th that Garrett Jin, an agent of the "1011 Insider Whale," published an article on the X platform stating that multiple structural factors have prevented ETH and BTC from rising along with other risky assets. The main reasons are believed to be trading cycles, market microstructure, and market manipulation by some exchanges, market makers, or speculative funds. Regarding the market background, the deleveraging decline that began in October has caused significant losses for leveraged participants, especially retail investors. From a time perspective, although BTC and ETH have underperformed in the past three years, they still outperform most assets over a six-year period; short-term underperformance can be seen as mean reversion over a long-term cycle. As long as the narratives of BTC as "digital gold" and ETH as a core component of AI and RWA infrastructure remain valid, there is no basis for their long-term underperformance. Currently, the trading volume of BTC and ETH futures is near historical lows, indicating that the deleveraging process is nearing its end. Labeling BTC and ETH as purely risky assets is one-sided. BTC and ETH also have safe-haven attributes. The real reason for their poor performance lies within the crypto market itself: the market is in the late stages of a deleveraging cycle, and participants are highly sensitive to downside risks; the market is dominated by retail investors, with institutional participation being passive; speculative funds take advantage of the high leverage of retail investors and the market's microstructure to create volatility through concentrated selling during periods of low liquidity, thereby triggering a chain of liquidations.

Microsoft Corp. $MSFT blue box area offers a buying opportunity

Microsoft Corp. $MSFT blue box area offers a buying opportunity

The post Microsoft Corp. $MSFT blue box area offers a buying opportunity appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In today’s article, we’ll examine the recent performance of Microsoft Corp. ($MSFT) through the lens of Elliott Wave Theory. We’ll review how the rally from the April 07, 2025 low unfolded as a 5-wave impulse followed by a 3-swing correction (ABC) and discuss our forecast for the next move. Let’s dive into the structure and expectations for this stock. Five wave impulse structure + ABC + WXY correction $MSFT 8H Elliott Wave chart 9.04.2025 In the 8-hour Elliott Wave count from Sep 04, 2025, we saw that $MSFT completed a 5-wave impulsive cycle at red III. As expected, this initial wave prompted a pullback. We anticipated this pullback to unfold in 3 swings and find buyers in the equal legs area between $497.02 and $471.06 This setup aligns with a typical Elliott Wave correction pattern (ABC), in which the market pauses briefly before resuming its primary trend. $MSFT 8H Elliott Wave chart 7.14.2025 The update, 10 days later, shows the stock finding support from the equal legs area as predicted allowing traders to get risk free. The stock is expected to bounce towards 525 – 532 before deciding if the bounce is a connector or the next leg higher. A break into new ATHs will confirm the latter and can see it trade higher towards 570 – 593 area. Until then, traders should get risk free and protect their capital in case of a WXY double correction. Conclusion In conclusion, our Elliott Wave analysis of Microsoft Corp. ($MSFT) suggested that it remains supported against April 07, 2025 lows and bounce from the blue box area. In the meantime, keep an eye out for any corrective pullbacks that may offer entry opportunities. By applying Elliott Wave Theory, traders can better anticipate the structure of upcoming moves and enhance risk management in volatile markets.
