The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is asking the public to comment on the idea of allowing round-the-clock trading in derivatives markets. In a statement, the federal agency, which regulates the derivatives markets, says it is exploring the possibility of 24/7 trading to keep up with shifting financial trends. Says Acting Chairman Caroline Pham, “As I have long said, the CFTC must take a forward-looking approach to shifts in market structure to ensure our markets remain vibrant and resilient while protecting all participants. One evolving trend is the move to 24/7, 24/6, or 24/5 trading hours. I look forward to the public comments on this market innovation.” The agency is specifically seeking comments on the effects and risks of permitting trading at all hours of the day. “This request seeks comment on the implications of extending the trading of CFTC-regulated derivatives markets to an effectively 24/7 basis, including the potential effects on trading, clearing and risk management which differ from trading during current market hours. The request also seeks comment on the risks of 24/7 trading, and the associated clearing systems, including risks related to the areas of market integrity, customer protection or retail trading.” The agency will receive public comment until May 21st.

The post Arbitrum (ARB) Price Analysis: Dead Cat Bounce or Full Blown Recovery Next? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News ARB price has followed a similar fractal pattern to the September 2024 bullish breakout. The resurgence of crypto FOMO could trigger a parabolic rally for ARB price in the near future. The gradual recovery of Ethereum (ETH), in the past few days beyond $1.7k, has reverberated in its layer two (L2) ecosystem, led by Arbitrum (ARM). The renewed altcoin interest by whale investors has rejuvenated bullish sentiment, as Bitcoin (BTC) price rebounded above the crucial support level of around $92k. In the past seven days, ARB price has rallied over 18 percent to trade about 33 cents on Wednesday, April 23, during the mid-North American trading session. The large-cap altcoin, with a fully diluted valuation of about $3.3 billion and a 24-hour average trading volume of about $229 million, has been trapped in a multi-month falling trend. What Next for ARB Price After being trapped in a falling trend YTD, ARB price broke out of a falling logarithmic trend in the past few days, signaling a potential macro reversal. Furthermore, a similar reversal pattern occurred between September and November 2024 but was overshadowed by the YTD selloff. With the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) having rallied above the 50 percent level for the first time in 2025, it is safe to assume a reversal is imminent. Moreover, the daily MACD indicator is on the cusp of transitioning to bullish sentiment. In case of further bullish sentiment, ARB price aims at 47 cents in the short term and $1.2 in the coming months.
