FOMC hasn’t opened yet, but the market has already turned in the assignment.

These 24-hour Binance numbers are pretty interesting: BTC is around 77,400, up only 0.19%, yet its range has swung from 76,046 to 79,890; ETH is up 4.00%, while SOL is up 2.01%. This doesn’t look like “the whole market is charging together”—it’s more like funds are positioning for relative strength based on rate expectations in advance. Binance Research’s latest monthly report also places ETF flows and the interest-rate path at the September observation point.

The FOMC on September 15–16 is the biggest volatility switch for the next few days. If, ahead of the meeting, ETH keeps outperforming and BTC can reclaim/hold above roughly 79,000, it suggests risk appetite still has support. If BTC spikes and then fades while ETH’s strength drops in sync, treat it as squeeze/positioning before the event first—don’t take a single green candle as confirmation of a trend.

I’ll wait for the first pullback after the meeting. If BTC holds around 76,000, or if ETH pulls back and then reclaims with renewed volume, that would look more like funds are willing to pass the baton. Conversely, if BTC breaks below the lower end of the range, altcoins are usually hit first. Do you think this time is being priced in early, or will direction be chosen only after the meeting lands?
