Nastco/iStock Editorial via Getty Images By Zain Vawda Bitcoin ( BTC-USD ) has enjoyed a period of relative strength, yet as we move into the latter half of the week, the alpha-crypto is facing a cluster of technical hurdles. Price action suggests a tug-of-war between bulls attempting to maintain the medium-term recovery and bears looking to capitalize on a descending trendline that has capped gains since the recent highs. H4 Chart: The Macro Battleground On the H4 time frame, the broad structure remains somewhat confined. The most notable feature is the descending trendline (black) originating from the 79200 peak. Recent price action shows BTC struggling to make a clean break above this resistance. The $78,197 level (purple line) remains the "line in the sand" for bulls. While we saw a spike above this earlier in the week, it was short-lived, resulting in a swing high that was quickly sold off. Currently, BTC is trading between the 50-SMA (blue) and the 100-SMA (orange). A sustained move back above the 50-SMA (around $77,452) is required to shift the H4 sentiment back to a clear bullish bias. Conversely, the 75000 level remains the primary psychological support that must hold to prevent a deeper correction. Bitcoin (BTC/USD) Four-Hour Chart, April 30, 2026 (Source: TradingView.com) H1 Chart: Consolidation and MA Squeeze Moving down to the H1 chart, we can see a more granular view of the recent volatility. The price is currently below the Moving Averages. The 50-MA (blue) is acting as immediate dynamic resistance near 76334, while the 100- and 200-MAs are converging above the price. The RSI (Relative Strength Index) on this time frame is hovering around the 50 mark, suggesting a lack of clear directional momentum. This "squeeze" typically precedes a volatile breakout. Watch for a candle close above the H1 50-MA to signal a run toward the 78197 resistance zone.

Since 2012, Mali has faced a security crisis fuelled by violence from groups linked to al-Qaida and Islamic State “The Grand Ball of Bamako,” as organisers tagged the Saturday evening soiree at the Hotel de l’Amitié in the Malian capital, was meant to provide one of the west African country’s biggest headlines last weekend. Many sponsors including Orange Mali, the local subsidiary of the French telecoms company, had bankrolled the show, which organisers hoped would demonstrate Mali’s capacity to put on big cultural events in the teeth of a security crisis raging on multiple fronts. On the eve of the concert, a convoy of over half a dozen cars picked up the main attraction, GrammyAward-winning Senegalese singer Youssou N’Dour, from the Modibo Keita international airport.

The upcoming six-month period has historically been such a bad stretch for the stock market that Wall Street has an adage for it: "Sell in May and go away." Data compiled by CFRA's Sam Stovall shows the S & P 500 has averaged a gain of just 2% between April 30 and Oct. 31 going back to 1945. Between Oct. 31 and April 30, the benchmark averages an advance of nearly 7%. In recent years, however, investors who sold in May and went away missed out on sharp advances. JPMorgan's trading desk pointed out that, over the past 10 years, the S & P 500 has averaged a return of 1.5% in May and a 1.9% pop in June. Returns are even stronger in July at an average of 3.4%. The benchmark also has also climbed 0.9% in August and 0.7% in October, while it pulls back by 0.5% in September. Many investors are already bracing to stay invested between May and October , as they await a potential resolution to the U.S.-Iran war that would boost equities. Stocks have also performed well during this period under President Donald Trump. "During Trump Presidency Years, the S & P 500 has tended to carve out a spring bottom in late March to early April before staging meaningful advances into year-end," Jeff Hirsch, editor of the Stock Trader's Almanac, said in an email earlier this week. "S & P 500's low close was March 30. The two-week U.S.-Iran ceasefire has held — and despite weekend peace talks ending without a deal, a new round of in-person negotiations is in the works this week. So far, 2026 is tracking the Trump Presidency seasonal pattern closely," he said. .SPX YTD mountain SPX year to date Indeed, the S & P 500 has rallied back to record levels above 7,100. The benchmark was set to rise again on Thursday following the release of strong quarterly reports from Alphabet and Amazon.
