He also threatened to target Iranian power plants and stated that Iran would be sent back to the \u201cStone Age\u201d if an agreement is not reached.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These statements have tempered hopes for de-escalation, further reducing investor appetite for riskier assets. As a result, the US Dollar (USD) and oil prices have strengthened, while US equities and other high-risk assets have come under pressure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Retail interest in BNB has also declined in recent days. According to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CoinGlass<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, BNB\u2019s long-to-short ratio reads 0.80 on Thursday, its lowest point in a month.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A ratio below one indicates bearish market sentiment, with traders betting on a further decline in BNB\u2019s price.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>BNB could dip to February\u2019s low<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The BNB\/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and inefficient as BNB has underperformed in recent days.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Currently, BNB is trading well below the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages, which all trend higher above the current price and frame a broader bearish backdrop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the 4-hour chart reads 42, below the neutral 50, indicating a bearish bias. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is also drifting deeper below the zero, signaling persistent selling pressure rather than a completed downside exhaustion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-363893\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/BNBUSD_2026-04-02_11-00-03.png\" alt=\"BNB\/USD 4H Chart\" width=\"1793\" height=\"836\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the bearish trend persists, BNB will retest the initial support at $570.16 (February\u2019s low). A break below this level would open the way toward lower daily lows and deepen the corrective phase toward the key psychological level at $500.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if the bulls regain control of the market, they would encounter immediate resistance at $697, in line with the descending EMAs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A sustained recovery above this barrier would be needed to ease the current bearish tone and expose the next resistance at $790.79.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Analysis,Binance Coin News,BNB#BNB #slips #Trump #threatens #strike #Iranian #power #plants1775134914<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key takeaways Binance\u2019s BNB is down 4.5% in the last 24 hours and now trades below $590.
