We can say that this week will be calmer after the heavy data flow from the USA last week. While the US CPI data, one of the most important indicators used by the US Federal Reserve (Fed) to monitor inflation, came in line with expectations, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) lowered its global growth forecast.
In the minutes of the March meeting of the US Federal Reserve, we saw that after the banking crisis, the risk of recession increased in 2023. According to CME data, the probability of a 25 basis point hike in the Fed’s meeting in the first week of May is above 83%. This week, the speeches of Fed officials will be followed with the data stream.
March inflation data will be released by the UK on Wednesday. A higher-than-expected inflation data may enable the UK to raise interest rates by another 25 basis points at the next meeting.
Eurozone, US and UK will release PMI (purchasing managers index) data on Friday and investors will be able to see the positive or negative impact of banking crises on economic growth.

Global In / Out Of The Money
GIOM aggregates the locations of all addresses into clusters based on the number (or volume) of addresses previously purchased in a given price range. The larger these clusters, the more support/resistance to be expected around these price levels.
Large currency clusters, on the other hand, represent key price ranges (cost to acquire) on the chain where large volumes of addresses (or volumes) were bought previously and would now profit if they were sold today (because the price is higher than theirs).
According to the weekly report by CoinShares, crypto assets saw a total of $114 million inflows last week, with a total of $345 million in four weeks of inflows. This shows that cryptocurrencies may have regained the interest of investors.
