Bitcoin vaults 99k but can it reclaim 100k?

The price action across the dollar is mixed now and since the last update here that has seen the Yen rise even further. The GBP/USD and EUR/USD might be off their earlier highs, but even as that was happening, the USD/JPY continued to fall back and hit a session low around 149.36. That came as US yields slipped and the major Yen crosses dumped- most notably the CAD/JPY, which has been well and truly sacked this afternoon. The USD/CAD lifted above 1.41 as the USD/JPY sank. Elsewhere the higher opening for the US stock markets now this afternoon has seen the S+P 500 edge above 6,090 and BTC has just vaulted the 99k handle at the same time. It has not yet really extended much above that level, but as you can see it is within striking distance of 100k again. The question is; can it reclaim that level and put aside the nasty slide it suffered overnight? Well, 100k might be tough to crack now. We shall see, but it is edging back down a bit now, as this update concludes. BTC is trading at 98,770
