QCP said Eyes on US Inflation for Bitcoin: Be Careful of These! - Coin Bulletin
While QCP Capital states that long-term optimism for Bitcoin (BTC) continues, it emphasizes that in the short term, market makers are creating selling pressure and there are risks in the markets to watch out for with China's countermove.
QCP Capital evaluated developments affecting the crypto and traditional markets in its latest market note. While markets experienced a strong rise due to surprising economic moves by U.S. President Donald Trump, the crypto market also benefited from this momentum. However, QCP warned that caution is needed in the short-term outlook.
Trump effect: "Make America Great Again"
QCP stated in its analysis titled "Make America Wealthy Again" that Trump's 90-day delay on tariffs and the implementation of a general 10% tariff on all countries except China have led to significant activity in the markets. Along with this development:
After the explanation, $75 million short position was liquidated in just one hour.
Strong message to China
Trump has hardened his stance against China by raising import tariffs to 125%. Following this move, the Chinese yuan fell to its lowest level in 18 years, at 7.3498. QCP noted that markets are on alert against China's potential retaliation.
Short term sell, long term hope
The QCP team notes that especially upward sell-offs in Bitcoin during May and June have been remarkable. This indicates that market makers view the rise as an "opportunity to exit unwanted positions."
However, at the same time, the purchase of December futures call options worth 100 thousand dollars indicates that investors believe Bitcoin may test the 100 thousand dollar level again in the long term.
Eyes on CPI data
The US CPI ( data to be announced tonight may shift the focus of the markets back to domestic economic developments. According to QCP, a weak inflation data will be a positive signal for the markets to balance the inflationary pressures that could arise from the tariffs implemented by Trump.
