🦋 ETH UPDATE
Ethereum is consolidating inside the horizontal channel. No exact vector for now. Yet, the price is now in the upper part of the channel, above 0.5 Fibo lvl — bullish sign.
If you are not a huge fan of $ETH — I wouldn't touch it (if I were in your shoes) until it breaks $2100 - $2150 resistance.
Once it does — there will be a LONG with tight stop loss opportunity available. Targets are $2400 and $2640.

IRAN REFUSES TO HALT NUCLEAR ENRICHMENT IN U.S. TALKS
Iran rejected U.S. demands to end uranium enrichment or move it offshore during talks in Oman, though officials signaled willingness to continue diplomacy to avoid a strike. Discussions were held indirectly via Omani mediators, with little movement on core positions.
The U.S. seeks to curb Iran’s nuclear program, ballistic missiles, and regional militia support, while Iran insists it will only discuss nuclear work. This was the first U.S.-Iran meeting since June’s 12-day conflict, with tensions heightened by past airstrikes, economic struggles, and regional provocations.
Despite the deadlock, both sides plan to meet again, though analysts warn the gap remains wide and the situation highly fragile.
