Bitcoin was trading at $63,140 when the analysis was prepared, meaning a relatively small gain from July’s closing level could trigger the reversal signal. The company said it continued to favor long positions but would shift to a neutral stance if…

Cysic’s $CYS token surged before South Korean exchange Upbit announced new $BTC and $USDT trading pairs on Aug. 10, drawing attention to the timing of one of the token’s largest intraday moves. Upbit initially scheduled trading for 14:00 KST, but the exchange has since postponed the opening twice, with its latest notice moving the launch to 20:00 KST. That update is important because $CYS had already recorded much of its price surge before Upbit trading began. At the time of research, the new markets had not yet opened, meaning the rally cannot be described as buying activity occurring on Upbit…
