SESSION PREP · ASIA

What to watch in the Asia session

The Asian session (Sydney · Australia · Tokyo · China · Singapore) · updated 2026-08-23 21:01 UTC.

The tape is still owned by the crypto-regulation story — Washington calls a deal near, the SEC is floating exemptions, and oil's climb on Iran sanction fears has Gulf markets lifting.

The Asia calendar is a quiet one: just New Zealand's retail sales readings (low impact) on the docket in this window. With weekend liquidity still in play, the charts and the news feed do the talking.

The story continues, not reverses. The barometer still leans bullish, but it's catching its breath: Bitcoin holds above 76,603.7, with H1 back up while H4 is still digesting — that support is the line to defend. Gold is in a clear uptrend, though the quiet RSI divergence argues for a stall, not a reversal. Oil and GBP/USD are both boxed — 84.50/86.90 and 1.36222/1.36563 — so breakout, not drift, decides. Ethereum's floor is 2,439.4; watch whether it catches up or drags Bitcoin. USD/JPY stays the neutral outlier, seatbelt sign still off.
