Thursday, August 13 2026

$BTC Outlook (UTC 0):
🟨00:00–09:00 → Sideways => Asian session consolidation. Bitcoin holding near 63.6k after yesterdays CPI-driven pump and dump. Markets are waiting for the US data dump at 12:30 UTC. No conviction yet.
🟨09:00–11:00 → Sideways => London open with low volume. PPI and Jobless Claims are the headline catalysts. Sideways drift with a slight bearish bias.
🟥11:00–15:00 → Down => US data hits at 12:30 UTC. PPI (MoM) forecast at 0.2% from -0.3% previous, a recovery signal that strengthens the DXY. Core PPI forecast at 0.3% from 0.2% previous, a rise. Initial Jobless Claims forecast at 202K from 199K previous, a dovish signal. The PPI recovery dominates.
🟥15:00–18:00 → Down => Afternoon US session. Continued selling pressure. 30-Year Bond Auction at 17:00 UTC likely shows yield creep at 5.058%. Fed's Balance Sheet at 20:30 UTC adds liquidity context.
🟨18:00–00:00 → Sideways => Late US close. Sideways consolidation. Profit-taking and geopolitical fears subside slightly. No clear direction into the overnight.
Bias: Bearish

📈 PPI expected to recover to 0.2% from -0.3%. Hawkish = DXY up.
📈 Core PPI expected to rise to 0.3% from 0.2%. Additional pressure.
📉 Jobless Claims expected to rise to 202K from 199K. Dovish but secondary.
📊 RSI at 46.75, TD Sequential at 4 Down. Bearish momentum intact.
💎 Strategy: Stay cautious. If PPI and Core PPI print GREEN, the correct trade is SHORT towards 62.5k. If they print RED, the correct trade is LONG towards 64.5k. But given the mixed signals, it may be safer to stay flat and wait for the data to confirm direction. Do not trade before the release. Manage risk, not greed.
