"Bitcoin is trying to stabilised around the $60,000 mark as improving geopolitical sentiment, following the announcement of fresh US-Iran talks, helped lift broader crypto markets. The rebound suggests that investors are responding positively to easing macro uncertainty, even as overall market participation remains measured.

Another notable development is the growing momentum around digital asset investment products. Continued interest in spot ETF inflows across major cryptocurrencies highlights that institutional engagement with the asset class remains intact, reinforcing the view that investors continue to look beyond short-term volatility and focus on long-term adoption.

At the same time, market is pointing to increasingly constructive on-chain signals, with some describing the current setup as a rare long-term accumulation opportunity. While near-term price swings are likely to persist, improving sentiment alongside strengthening structural indicators suggests the market is gradually rebuilding confidence.

For investors, the focus should remain on the quality of participation rather than daily price movements. As macro conditions stabilise and institutional interest continues, sustained buying demand will be the key factor in determining whether the current recovery can evolve into a broader upward trend."

"Global markets are entering an important week as investors await the U.S. payrolls data, which could shape expectations for the Federal Reserve's next policy move. A stronger-than-expected jobs report may reinforce the case for higher interest rates, keeping pressure on risk assets.

The Bank for International Settlements warned that AI-driven equity valuations have become stretched, raising concerns about broader market stability. Against this backdrop of capital inflows into AI stocks, Bitcoin briefly reclaimed the $60,000 mark yesterday before dropping down to $59k levels.

Bitcoin continues to hold the key $58,000-$60,000 support zone, while $62,500 remains the immediate resistance to watch. These levels will likely drive futures activity, with traders positioning for a breakout above resistance. Until then, range-bound trading is expected to dominate market participation.

According to market analysts, Ethereum Futures traders could be watching the $1,550-$1,560 support zone, and the $1,690-$1,700 resistance zone, according to market analysts. A break above resistance could trigger fresh long positions, while a breakdown below support may increase short-selling."

The Nifty 50 ended Monday on a subdued note, falling 110 points (0.46%) to close at 23,946, slipping below the key 24,000 mark as profit booking intensified in the second half of the session. After an early attempt to reclaim 24,120, the benchmark erased gains to finish near the day's low, pressured by weakness in the rupee, which settled at its lowest level of the day, and investor caution ahead of key US labour market data. Broader markets also underperformed, reflecting subdued market breadth.

Global cues, however, remain supportive. US equities rallied sharply overnight, with the Dow Jones crossing the 52,000 mark for the first time, while the S&P 500 gained 1.2% and the Nasdaq advanced 2%, driven by renewed buying in technology stocks and easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Asian markets mirrored the positive sentiment, trading mostly higher, led by gains in Japan and China.

For domestic markets, the sharp decline in crude oil prices remains a key positive. Brent crude continues to hover near $73 per barrel after a steep weekly decline, easing inflation concerns and improving India's macro outlook. GIFT Nifty indicates a largely flat but stable opening.

Technically, the 24,000 level remains the immediate hurdle for the Nifty. A sustained move above this level could trigger a recovery towards 24,120-24,200. On the downside, 23,900 is the first line of support, while a decisive breach could extend the correction towards 23,800. Despite Monday's weakness, supportive global markets and lower crude prices are likely to keep the broader undertone constructive.

Bitcoin Remains Anchored near $60,000 Amid US Stock Market Surge. Bitcoin (BTC) is hovering at a key inflection point, with retail investors continuing to offload their holdings while institutional buyers remain on hold despite attractive valuations. As a result, the market remains range-bound, awaiting its next decisive move. Fresh capital is yet to return to Bitcoin, with trading volumes subdued and open interest showing only minor changes. This points to an indecisive market where buyers are still hesitant to step in aggressively.

Bitcoin remains range-bound, consolidating near the key $58,000-$59,000 support zone. The SuperTrend remains bearish, with immediate resistance at $61,800-$62,500. A break below $58,000 could trigger a decline toward the $55,000-$56,000 range.

Ethereum faced rejection at the 9 EMA and has slipped from $1,614. Immediate resistance is seen at $1,650-$1,670, with a breakout potentially driving a recovery toward $1,720-$1,800. On the downside, a break below $1,500 could send ETH toward the $1,400-$1,450 range. Overall, Ethereum remains in a corrective phase until it reclaims key resistance levels.

At the close on Monday, the total market cap of all BSE Sensex companies stood at Rs 4,73,69,159.
