🚨 FOMC SEPTEMBER: IS THE FED ABOUT TO SHIFT THE MARKET?

August core CPI came in at +0.3% MoM, keeping inflation concerns alive and pushing market expectations toward a possible 25bp rate move this week.

But the bigger question isn’t just the decision — it’s what comes NEXT. 👀

If the Fed delivers a 25bp hike, I’d expect the first reaction across risk assets to be volatile. BTC and tech stocks could face selling pressure as liquidity expectations tighten, while gold could initially benefit from defensive flows.

For BTC, I’m watching the reaction around key support/resistance rather than blindly chasing the first candle. A hawkish Fed statement could trigger a sharp downside move, but if Powell signals that this is a one-off adjustment rather than the beginning of a prolonged hiking cycle, risk assets could quickly recover.

🎯 My plan: wait for the FOMC volatility to settle, then trade the confirmation — not the headline.
