March 14 – The Trump administration has initiated a process to massively utilize the U.S. emergency petroleum reserves, issuing a request to exchange 86 million barrels of crude oil. The Department of Energy stated in a statement Friday that oil drawn from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, as part of the 172 million barrel release plan announced Wednesday, is expected to begin flowing into the market by the end of next week. This release of oil reserves is expected to take four months to complete and is part of a coordinated 400 million barrel action plan with other countries. Under the exchange terms, companies will return the loaned oil to the Department of Energy in the future, paying an additional amount as a premium. The Department of Energy stated earlier this week that the Trump administration has planned to replenish the Strategic Petroleum Reserve with approximately 200 million barrels of oil over the next year, 20% more than the reserves being used this time.Market news: BPs ultra-deepwater development project, Kasqueda, is scheduled to begin crude oil production in 2029.Market news: BP has been granted permission to launch its first Gulf of Mexico project since the Deepwater Horizon drilling platform explosion tragedy.March 14 – According to foreign media reports, U.S. Energy Secretary Frank Wright took action on Friday to retaliate against two of the Trump administrations biggest adversaries: the oil supply disruptions caused by the war with Iran, and California Governor Gavin Newsom. Wright issued an order clearing the way for a company operating near the California coast to restart an oil pipeline that had been shut down by state officials since 2015. The Department of Energy characterized this move as a way to reduce reliance on oil imports via the Strait of Hormuz. "Today, more than 60 percent of the oil used by California refineries comes from overseas, a significant portion of which is transported through the Strait of Hormuz—a serious national security threat," the Department of Energy wrote in a statement. Wright stated that this move will "strengthen the United States oil supply and restore pipeline systems critical to our national security and defense, ensuring that military facilities on the West Coast have reliable energy sources essential for readiness."According to the Wall Street Journal, sources familiar with the matter said that given polls showing President Trump’s actions on the vaccine issue are unpopular, his aides have decided to take a more active role in managing the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, which is led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Bitcoin (BTC) increased by 0.85% on Sunday. BTC gained 2.21% to reach $20,03 at the close of the week, reversing a Saturday decline of 0.68%. BTC rebounded from a low of $19,589 to a high of $20,039 in the last hour before easing down.


Ethereum (ETH), which had lost 1.14% on Saturday, gained 1.35% on Sunday to close the week up 10.73% at $1,579.


Following the general market, ETH dropped to a low of $1,541 before reaching a high of $1,584 in the last hour. Investor anticipation of the impending Merge offered assistance, while Fed apprehension maintained ETH below $1,600.


Despite the US markets being closed for Labor Day, investor caution dominated the cryptocurrency market going into the Monday session. Investors in cryptocurrencies are in the dark about the Fed's rate rise in September.


Although the US job market statistics from last week were worse than anticipated, inflation is still much higher than the Fed's target, which signals front-loading for the rest of the year. After Friday's statistics, former Fed Chair and US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen emphasized the Fed's obligations. The remarks made by Yellen are still relevant.

Bitcoin Price Action (BTC)

BTC was worth $19,746 at the time of writing, a decline of 1.28%. BTC saw a negative morning, dropping from a high of $20,060 to a low of $19,637.


At $19,715, BTC momentarily breached the First Major Support Level (R1).

Technical Significance

In order to support a run at the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $20,165, BTC must cross the pivot point at $19,877. To break beyond the morning high of $20,060, BTC requires support from a larger portion of the market.


BTC would challenge the Second Major Resistance Level (R2) at $20,327 and resistance at $20,500 during a prolonged crypto rise. At $20,777, the Third Major Resistance Level (R3) is located.


If the pivot is not moved through, the First Major Support Level (S1) at $19,715 remains in play. In the absence of a prolonged sell-off, BTC should stay above $19,000. The decline should be constrained by the Second Major Support Level at $19,427.
