USDT Dominance has spiked into the 5.80% range, reflecting the run to safety within the crypto market. Bitcoin is down -5.6% for the week, and crypto assets across the board have fallen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‚S\u2019 coins such as DOGE taking the largest hits (-19.3%), and the announced crypto reserve altcoins: Ethereum, Solana, XRP, DOT, and Cardano have all declined by roughly -10%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This decline came with the announcement of the US Crypto Reserves, Trump\u2019s tariffs on Mexico and Canada, as well as ongoing peace talks with Russia-Ukraine. Investors may be feeling uncertain due to the erratic developments of geopolitical news, explaining the run to safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gauge Market Health with USDT.D Chart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The USDT Dominance chart moves inversely to Bitcoin and the overall crypto market, making it a useful tool for gauging potential market recoveries. When plotted alongside BTCUSDT, the correlation becomes clear\u2014USDT.D rises when Bitcoin falls and vice versa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bulls will need a pullback on USDT.D in order to see the crypto market reverse, and currently, there are signs for a reversal brewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brewing Signs of a Pullback on USDT.D<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

USDT.D has currently tapped into a major resistance at 5.79%-5.93%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This zone has previously served as a resistance, and with a bearish divergence<\/strong><\/a> in play, we could expect the USDT dominance to pull back, either after consolidating at the resistance, or from here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A rising parallel channel formation also supports the idea for a drop, at least towards the Channel\u2019s midpoint<\/strong>, or 5.40%-5.50%<\/strong>. A further pullback would land us at the channel\u2019s lower trendline, <\/strong>which, if broken, could take USDT.D to 4.60%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That being said, a breakout from this rising channel would be bearish <\/strong>for the crypto market. The next major high would then be around 6.35%-6.50%, putting more pressure on the crypto market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin Approaches Fibonacci Support Levels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin is currently at a Fibonacci retracement support<\/a> at $79,294, which is currently supporting the price. If a pivot bounce occurs, a daily Fair Value Gap at $84,131\u2013$85,151 could provide some resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s also the anchored vWAP to consider\u2014drawn from the major lows in August, the anchored vWAP provided a strong bounce in February when it was reached. However, we are now below the anchored vWAP, <\/strong>flipping it into resistance at $82,108.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Should the Bitcoin descend further, the most critical level to watch would be the 61.80% Fib level at $72,144.62. This aligns perfectly with the previous All-Time-High (ATH) zone of $71,450\u2013$73,921. There is also a bullish divergence<\/a> to be found on the daily RSI, supporting the idea of a potential bullish reversal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
