Iran announces "closing the strait," but oil prices didn't take off? The market is voting with its feet Yesterday, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard warned via radio: “Ships attempting to pass through the Strait of Hormuz may encounter mines.” Strait closed! Middle East on the brink! Oil prices soaring! Bitcoin crashing! Tense to the point of suffocation, right? Then the U.S. military casually responded: “Today, 55 merchant ships passed normally. No evidence suggests Iran is closing the strait.” 55 ships. Passing normally. You say it's closed, they say it's not. You shout mines on radio, I see ships on radar. This is the “Rashomon” of the Strait of Hormuz. One calls for attack, one enjoys peaceful days. Who does the market believe now? The captain of those 55 ships. Iran is so tough, the market should be scared shitless. But look at oil prices— Did they rise? Yes. But not crazy. Why? Because this time, the script has changed. In 2019, oil tankers were attacked, and the market was truly panicked, oil prices surged sharply. Because that was “real action.” Today is “verbal threats + U.S. refutes on the spot + multiple countries mediating simultaneously.” Between threats and facts, there’s a whole U.S. Fifth Fleet. When missiles are aimed at cameras rather than merchant ships, the market won’t buy into the cognitive war. Digging deeper. Iran is set to negotiate in Switzerland today, the 21st. Pakistan is mediating in the middle. One side is shouting on radio, while they’ve already booked tickets to fly to Switzerland. We’ve seen this play out over ten times in the past two years. The “fight while talking” script, the market has memorized it cold. Every “closure” is a show of strength, every “denial” leaves room for maneuver, every “negotiation” is the real main event. Bluster is for domestic audiences; the negotiation table is for the market. So how to trade now? If today’s Swiss talks don’t break down— This Hormuz incident is just a “false breakthrough panic.” The script is clear: Iran threatens to close → oil jumps → U.S. refutes → ships keep sailing → negotiations start → risks fade away. In this rhythm, the best move isn’t to chase more crude oil, but: 1️⃣ Short volatility—wait for panic premiums to fade, sell options for income. 2️⃣ Buy risk assets on dips—if Bitcoin crashes because of this news, don’t follow to sell, that’s probably a golden opportunity. Bottom-line thinking: shipping isn’t stopped, all threats are noise. The 55 ships cast the most genuine “vote of opposition” with their routes. Every time Hormuz threatens “closure,” someone gets scared and sells. But every time, ships keep sailing, oil keeps moving, negotiations keep turning. The market has evolved. It no longer pays for “who shouts loudest,” only for “who really makes a move.” The wolf has cried wolf too many times, the sheep have learned to watch the radar. #我的Gate交易时刻 #美伊谈判推迟 #TradFiCFD黄金大师赛 $BTC $ETH $BZ

Jiang Xiqing: The Gold Boom Has Faded, Safe-Haven Logic Will Once Again Dominate the Market The recent surge in gold prices this year can basically be considered over. This does not mean that gold prices will fall into a slump forever, but rather that the kind of one-sided, large-scale rally seen last year is unlikely to be repeated. The upcoming precious metals market will gradually return to rationality, with safe-haven sentiment expected to once again become the main driving factor in trading—this is a healthier and more sustainable pattern for most participants. From a technical perspective, the daily chart shows that gold prices still face significant downward pressure. The key resistance zone above continues to suppress buying interest, and multiple attempts by bulls to rebound have failed to break through effectively, further reinforcing the current downward trend structure. As for when a true rebound might occur, I believe the timing window may be after the World Cup ends. Until then, as long as the bears maintain control below the resistance levels, gold prices will struggle to break free from the weak trend and are likely to continue fluctuating downward. Focus on two key support levels below: 3850, followed by around 3680. If sellers continue to exert pressure, these levels will be critical supports to watch in the $BTC coming period.
