#FedRateWatch Everyone is waiting today for the next decisions by the Federal Reserve regarding interest rates. This is the key fundamental driver, because any signals about easing or maintaining monetary policy tightness will be immediately priced into the value of liquid assets.
The main intrigue is whether the regulator will start cutting rates more aggressively to support the economy, or take a wait-and-see stance due to inflation risks.
On such news, volatility always moves both ways. Big players typically use the emotions of the crowd to drain liquidity, so now the most important thing is not to give in to FOMO, avoid excessive leverage, and control risks. Current FedWatch data is a sensitive compass, but on the chart the main thing remains the price’s reaction to key support and resistance zones.
In short—trade what you see on the chart, not what you expect in the news.
I think it’s worth completely stepping away from margin trading while the news is released, so an accidental “spike” doesn’t knock our position off. Let’s give the market 15–30 minutes to form a real impulse.
We’ll monitor the reaction to key zones (for Bitcoin these are now important levels $77,000–$82,000).
