<p class=“MsoNormal“>Let’s be real: Traders can be a boastful bunch.
And rightfully so! Technical analysis, number crunching, and backtesting an
effective trading strategy takes skill, effort, and natural talent.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Because money is involved, there are still some
traders that prefer to be modest. But if you are the type to want to show off
your successful trades on social media or elsewhere online, then you definitely
will want to download the award-winning PrimeXBT mobile app.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Here is more on what the PrimeXBT app for
Android and iOS devices can do for you, as well as how to easily create a
shareable image to highlight your trading ROI.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Computers, Apps, And The
Evolution Of Trading Tools</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>The advent of computers and the internet turned
the practice of <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://primexbt.com/trading-academy?utm_source=PR&utm_medium=PR&utm_campaign=Bragging+Rights%3A+How+To+Share+Successful+Trades+On+Social+Media+Using+The+PrimeXBT+App“ target=“_blank“>technical analysis</a> from
something drawn by hand into something handled by advanced computer software.
Online trading desks became commonplace during the 90s and 2000s. However,
today, smartphone apps are where the money and users are at.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>The emergence of social media has also changed
the way we trade and interact in the financial community. Online influencers
and <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.investopedia.com/articles/active-trading/041515/worlds-10-most-famous-traders-all-time.asp“ target=“_blank“>well-known traders</a>
share their thoughts and insights for others to see. Trends like copy trading
have since been developed to take advantage of the demand to follow other
traders’ lead.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Because people love to show off on social media
on the regular, those behaviors spill over from posting about new cars, fancy
watches, and other luxury goods to prove one’s level of wealth, into bragging
about a winning trade.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Always On Apps Are
Constantly Updated With New Features</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>The PrimeXBT smartphone app recently received a
number of updates. The updates included the ability to<a target=“_blank“ href=“https://primexbt.com/buy-crypto?utm_source=PR&utm_medium=PR&utm_campaign=Bragging+Rights%3A+How+To+Share+Successful+Trades+On+Social+Media+Using+The+PrimeXBT+App“ target=“_blank“> buy crypto</a> in just
a few taps, an exchange tool, a revamped withdrawal process, and the ability to
share successful trades online. For full transparency, traders can even choose
to share losing trades if they would like.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Not only does boasting about winnings help to
prove a trader’s worth in the trading community, it can have a positive effect
on the growth of the community itself. For example, if a PrimeXBT trader is
also a Covesting strategy manager, promoting successful trades could turn a
social media follower into a Covesting follower.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Covesting followers automatically copy the
trades of strategy managers ranked in the Covesting global leaderboards. Past
strategy manager profit levels have reached as much as 90,000% ROI. Imagine the
<a target=“_blank“ href=“https://buffer.com/library/social-media-engagement/“ target=“_blank“>social engagement </a>a
winning streak like that would receive from a trading community or via crypto
Twitter.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Why It Is Worth Boasting
About the Award-Winning PrimeXBT App</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>The PrimeXBT mobile application itself is boast-worthy.
In addition to the ability to create a shareable graphic with a successful ROI,
traders get access to the full suite of PrimeXBT trading tools. These powerful
tools include built-in charting software, more than 100 trading instruments
available for margin trading, passive investing, a four level referral program,
and much more.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>PrimeXBT also has 24/7 customer service,
bank-grade security infrastructure, proprietary cold storage, and other ways to
keep customers happy and funds safe. The platform also offers a plethora of
educational tools such as the PrimeXBT trading academy. Weekly competitions
using no-risk funds give users a way to practice or participate for a chance to
win crypto reward prizes.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>The PrimeXBT smartphone app is available as a
free download for iOS devices via the Apple App Store and the Google Play store
for Android devices. Download it today, and access <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://primexbt.com/markets?utm_source=PR&utm_medium=PR&utm_campaign=Bragging+Rights%3A+How+To+Share+Successful+Trades+On+Social+Media+Using+The+PrimeXBT+App“ target=“_blank“>best-in-class trading tools and instruments</a> all under one roof.</p>

<p class=“MsoNormal“>Market
picture</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Bitcoin lost
3.8% on Tuesday, ending it at around $23.2K, and is developing a decline to
$22.9 by Wednesday morning. Ethereum has lost 5.6% in the last 24 hours, to
$1680. Top altcoins are down 2.5% (BNB) to 7.2% (Solana).</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Total crypto
market capitalisation, according to CoinMarketCap, fell 3.9% overnight to $1.08
trillion.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>The recovery
in stock indices has choked, but even earlier and more dramatically, these
changes have affected Bitcoin and the whole crypto market. Should the decline
develop, investors and traders should pay close attention to the 21500 area,
where the previous local lows are concentrated. A dip below that and a decisive
return below the 50-day average could well be the start of a new wave of decline
that could take the crypto market to new lows. At least, there might be a test
of the June-July lows.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>News
background</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>According to
CoinShares, net capital inflows into crypto funds slowed to $3m last week, with
Ethereum accounting for the most investments at $16m. Funds investing in
bitcoin lost $8.5m; those allowing shorting it faced $7.5m in outflows.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Michael
Novogratz, CEO of investment firm Galaxy Digital, expects bitcoin to
consolidate in the $20,000-$30,000 range for a while.</p><p class=“MsoNormal“>Circle has
blocked 75K USDC on Tornado Cash mixer wallets, which have come under sanctions
from the US Treasury. According to the agency, attackers have laundered

<p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>There’s not much in it so far in European morning trade as market players are all waiting on the US CPI data later today before firming up any convictions. Major currencies were more pensive earlier and little changed but we are seeing some light moves now with the dollar slightly softer. That said, it isn’t anything material as the ranges are still relatively contained for the most part.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>EUR/USD is up a little to 1.0230 but even then, the range today is not even 30 pips so that kind of exemplifies the lack of meaningful price action for the time being. In the bigger picture, the pair is still caught between 1.0100 and the 50.0 Fib retracement level at 1.0283 and we’ll have to see if the US CPI data later can be a catalyst for any technical pushes this week:</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>Meanwhile, USD/JPY is still slugging in and around the 135.00 mark as traders are struggling to find any real desire to go chasing firmer moves before we get to the key risk event later. <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/news/the-bond-market-remains-a-key-spot-to-watch-on-the-week-20220810/“ target=“_blank“>The bond market is still a key aspect to watch</a> for the pair so just be mindful of that in confirming any major technical moves later in the week:</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>Elsewhere, USD/CHF is down 0.4% to 0.9500 and commodity currencies are mildly higher against the greenback but both USD/CAD and AUD/USD are also just holding 30 pips ranges. As such, I wouldn’t read much into it and we’ll only get a better sense of trading sentiment once we are able to digest the US consumer inflation report later today.</p>

<p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>After a bit of a mixed start early on, we are seeing stocks look more guarded now with a bit of a drop ahead of the Wall Street open later.

Meanwhile, Nasdaq futures are down 0.6% and Dow futures down 0.2% on the day.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>Meme stocks stole the headlines to start the week but perhaps the sense of apprehension ahead of the key risk event tomorrow i.e. US CPI data will be the story for today.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>Elsewhere, European indices are extending declines as well with the DAX down 1.2%, CAC 40 down 0.6%, and Eurostoxx down 1.0%.</p>

<ul><li>Prior 89.5</li></ul><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>Small business optimism in the US edged up a little in July as fuel prices eased and job openings were marginally easier to fill.

<p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>At the lows today, WTI <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/terms/c/crude-oil/“ target=“_blank“ id=“e1f1b115-23d2-48c8-98c8-24024dada457_1″ class=“terms__main-term“>crude oil</a> was down to $89.05 but was holding around $90.00 before the headlines crossed.

<p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>Sometimes it is best to be reminded of what goes beyond the headlines and when it comes to inflation numbers, markets may tend to get a bit carried away. So, it is always good to be wary and look in between the lines and not just overreact to what you see on the screens.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>German inflation hasn’t quite shown signs of peaking just yet with the <a target=“_blank“ href=“https://www.forexlive.com/news/germany-july-preliminary-cpi-75-vs-74-yy-expected-20220728/“ target=“_blank“>July numbers</a> coming in higher than estimated. Sure, the headline figure (7.5%) might be off the May high of 7.9% but the EU-harmonised reading (8.5%) was higher than that of June, increasing to just shy of the record high seen in May at 8.7%.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>With CPI data set to be a key focus everywhere in the months ahead, it is vital to be aware of the nuances and the possible factors impacting the numbers. In the case for Germany, the government had introduced subsidies on fuel and rail tickets for the months of June, July and August.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>They slashed taxes on both petrol and diesel for the three months, although prices at the pump are still lofty. But they also introduced a public transport travel pass, which is effective for a travel period of one month, for just €9.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>German finance minister, Christian Lindner, has already poured cold water on the idea that the ‚9-euro travel pass‘ will be extended. As such, there might be a spike in prices again come September when the subsidies are retired.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>That will be something to be mindful about in case we do see another jump in German consumer inflation numbers for the month.</p>

<p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>The jump higher in the dollar after the US jobs report on Friday was encouraging but there still needs to be more in order to vindicate a return back to the year’s highs for the greenback. For now, the price action today suggests that market players are not convinced and USD/JPY tipping back below 135.00 is but a testament to that.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>While buyers managed to recover well from a drop towards 130.00 last week, the rebound here isn’t suggestive of a return towards 140.00 yet either. For that, the bond market needs to play ball and for now, that isn’t quite the case. 10-year Treasury yields are down 4 bps today to near 2.79% upon encountering resistance at the 100-day moving average:</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>That continues to be quite a defining technical point for the bond market at the moment. As such, that might be enough to keep USD/JPY pinned down below 135.00 as well.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>Looking ahead this week, all the focus will be on the US CPI data on Wednesday and I reckon only until we get there will there be any real convictions for traders to firmly challenge key technical points on the charts.</p>
