Most important: Don't trade only the headline. The Fed statement, dot plot and Chair's press conference can matter more than the rate decision itself. Reuters notes that markets are especially focused on whether this hike signals the start of a tightening cycle.Fed Rate Watch — Sept. 16, 2026
The Federal Reserve decision is today, and markets are heavily positioned for a 25-basis-point rate hike. CME-based estimates were around 92–93% for a hike, which would move the target range from 3.50–3.75% to 3.75–4.00%.
For your BTC/ETH/BNB watchlist, I'd avoid chasing a sudden candle around the announcement and wait for the first breakout + retest.
