On June 21, Bitcoin soared to a local high at $30,700. Despite an expected correlation, the ascent of Pax Gold fails to keep pace with BTC. The current market landscape for Bitcoin and gold-backed stablecoin Pax Gold as of 22/06/23.
Bitcoin
Yesterday, the leading cryptocurrency surged to a new local peak, reaching $30,700. The resistance level at $31,000 remains a key factor, with potential sell orders expected to be concentrated within the $31,600-$32,400 range.
Buyers continue to exert significant pressure on the price, resulting in a substantial amount of unfulfilled liquidity. Presently, the crucial support levels are identified at $29,800, along with the zones ranging from $28,700 to $29,200 and $26,800 to $28,000. The previously analyzed ranges maintain their relevance per yesterday's analysis.
BTC chart on the M30 timeframe
Pax Gold (PAXG)
Despite the expected correlation with the stock market, the current gold chart shows little resemblance to the BTC price movement. This divergence is notable considering the historical symmetry observed between BTC and gold in 2023. The lack of correlation suggests either a shift in the involvement of institutional investors or the influence of retail investors driving crypto prices.
Currently, PAXG exhibits remarkably low volatility, trading within the support zone of $1,877-$1,908. The next significant buying level is expected in the range of $1,800-$1,834. The immediate resistance level to watch is $1,940. If selling pressure increases, a potential sell-off may occur within the range of $1,955-$2,000, with a further level at $2,052.
