CAPITALCOM:BTCUSD   Bitcoin
Bitcoin (BTC) price tumbled to a weekly low of $40,555 of Wednesday morning, down 9% from its yearly peak of $44,700 recorded on Dec 8. 
On-chain data trail shows that Large Institutional investors capitalized on the Bitcoin price dip to acquire another 13,010 BTC (~$533 million). 
Historical accumulation trends show that Bitcoin smashing the $43,200 resistance could catalyze more gains.


I am BULLISH strongly on this pair now, and will update if, based on my trading systems, trend reversals, position reducing, take profits, or trend change happens

Bitcoin (BTC) price dropped to a 10-day low of $40,555 on Wednesday morning, down 9% from the 2023 peak of $44,700 recorded on Dec 8. On-chain data analysis depicts that Large Institutional investors capitalized on the Bitcoin price dip to acquire another 13,010 BTC (~$533 million). 


Bitcoin price looks set to reclaim the $50,000 territory in the short-term. From an on-chain perspective, corporate investors accumulating BTC to front-run the impending Spot ETF approval appear to be the major driver behind the current bullish momentum. 
Without any significant setback to the Spot ETF approvals process, the Bitcoin bulls are expected to remain in control. 
However, historical buy/sell trends show that the $43,500 area could form a significant resistance to the next Bitcoin price bounce. 
But if the whales maintain their current buying trend, Bitcoin price will likely smash that resistance has reclaim $45,000 as predicted.

On the flip side, the bears could invalidate that positive prediction if Bitcoin price dips below the critical psychological resistance at $40,000. But, in that case, the 1.17 million holders that bought 520,140 BTC at the average price of $41,000 could offer significant support. 
Since the Bitcoin Spot ETF approval is expected in the next few months, BTC price will likely defend that support level fiercely.

Fed Pivot Toward Interest Rate Cuts in 2024 and Gold’s Bullish Response

The Federal Reserve concluded its last FOMC meeting of the year, and as expected, they kept their benchmark interest rate unchanged.
Seventeen voting members are all predicting interest rate cuts next year, with five officials projecting a decrease of ¾%, five officials anticipating a larger rate cut than ¾%, and the remaining two voting members anticipating no rate cuts next year. According to their economic projections, the Fed believes core inflation will peak at 2.4% next year, which is lower than its projections in September of 2.6%.
The Federal Reserve is also projecting inflation will cool to 2.2% in 2025 and 2.0% in 2026. Their projections anticipate unemployment rising to 4.1% in 2024 and remaining at that level through 2026. The Fed also anticipates an economic deceleration forecasting growth at 1.4% next year, and rising to 1.8% in 2025 and 1.9% in 2026

Treasury yields hit lowest since August, fueling market optimism

U.S. stock futures climb as Fed hints at 2024 rate cuts; Dow hits all-time high.
Fed Open Market Committee keeps rates steady; markets react positively to dovish outlook.
Post-Fed, Treasury yields drop to lowest since August, signaling economic optimism.

U.S. stock futures experienced a significant uplift Wednesday night, following the Federal Reserve’s indication of possible rate cuts in 2024.

US DOLLAR DOWN YIELDS DOWN ASSETS vs Dollar UP

Federal Reserve’s Rate Cut Signal
The Federal Open Market Committee maintained interest rates between 5.25% and 5.5%, aligning with market expectations. However, the revelation of potential rate cuts in 2024 spurred a positive shift in market sentiment. The Fed’s decision, signifying the potential end of a cycle that included 11 rate hikes, has been viewed as a pivot towards a softer monetary policy approach


Impact on Treasury Yields
The Fed’s announcement influenced Treasury yields, with the 10-year note hitting its lowest since August. The dovish outlook implies further cuts through 2025 and 2026, potentially lowering the fed funds rate to 2%-2.25%. This forecast aligns with a brighter inflation outlook, as indicated by recent consumer and wholesale price data

Solar Stocks Respond Positively
The Invesco Solar ETF (TAN) saw a significant increase, with constituent stocks like Enphase Energy, SolarEdge Technologies, and Sunrun recording notable gains. This uptrend reflects the solar industry’s sensitivity to interest rates, as lower rates could reduce financing costs and improve valuations.

The January launch of a bitcoin spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) is expected to face subdued demand initially, which could lead to a 'sell the news' scenario, Singapore-based QCP Capital wrote in a recent note. This could result in short-term volatility for bitcoin, which will shift the focus towards ether .
"It is likely that the actual demand for the bitcoin spot ETF at the start will fall short of market expectations," QCP wrote. "We expect topside resistance for bitcoin in the $45k-$48.5k region and a possible retracement to 36k levels before the uptrend resumes."
Bitcoin is currently trading above $43,700 during Asia business hours, up 2% on-day.
QCP writes that ether is seen as a potential secondary investment option with an anticipated market shift from bitcoin, and speculative interest in a forthcoming ether spot ETF could drive ether prices higher, even before the ETF's actual launch.
"Ether might also be an interesting laggard play here," they wrote. "This kind of headline excitement could create some speculative uplift for ETH price whether it is warranted or not."
CoinDesk reported that BlackRock (BLK), Nasdaq (NDAQ), and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) held their second meeting in a month to discuss rule changes for listing the bitcoin ETF, with BlackRock modifying its proposal to include cash redemptions, aligning with SEC preferences.
Grayscale also recently had a second meeting with the SEC.
Bitcoin is up 17% in the last month, according to CoinDesk Indicies data, as anticipation builds around the ETF.
Comment:
Bitcoin - a break above $44.7k brings $48.2k resistance into play.
Solana – outperformance continues
The multi-week Bitcoin rally remains intact and is pushing the largest cryptocurrency by market cap to levels last seen in April last year. The spot Bitcoin narrative remains the main driver of positive sentiment, while the technical Bitcoin halving event, expected in mid-April, is supporting the push higher. A decision by the SEC on multiple spot Bitcoin ETF applications is expected by early January and a positive decision is currently seen as the most likely outcome. Bitcoin traders are actively watching any SEC announcement at the moment and, it seems, buying Bitcoin ahead of the decision.

The technical outlook for BTC/USD is positive with the weekly chart showing a bullish flag formation being formed, while a bullish 50-day/200-day gold-cross is close to being made. The CCI indicator shows BTC/USD as overbought, suggesting a period of consolidation before any move higher. On the weekly chart there is little in the way of resistance ahead of $48.2k. Support is seen at $40k and a fraction under $38k.
Comment:
Bitcoin climbs above $45,000 for first time since April 2022

Bitcoin touched a 21-month peak of $45,488, having gained 154% last year in the strongest performance since 2020. It was last up 2.6% at $45,344 but remains far off the record high of $69,000 it touched in November 2021.

Ether, the coin linked to the ethereum blockchain network, was 1% higher at $2,376 on Tuesday.

Investor focus has been squarely on whether the U.S. securities regulator will soon approve a spot bitcoin ETF, which would throw open the bitcoin market to millions more investors.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has rejected multiple applications to launch spot bitcoin ETFs in recent years, arguing that the cryptocurrency market is vulnerable to manipulation.

In recent months, however, there have been increasing signs that regulators are prepared to sign off on at least some of the 13 proposed spot bitcoin ETFs, with expectations that the decision will likely come in early January.

Rising bets that major central banks will cut interest rates this year has also been a boon for cryptocurrencies, helping shake off the gloom that had settled over crypto markets following the collapse of FTX and other crypto-business failures in 2022.

Comment:
I hold my longs and keep staying bullish This was confirmed by the most recent higher bottom and higher top created in yesterday’s trading session. Despite the bullish outlook, bears are currently busy with a correction wave and will be aiming at the weekly resistance turned support to test the bullish resolve. Nevertheless, this sets up possible long opportunities on lower time frames if the bulls can regain their momentum and keep on dominating the market On the 4-hour chart a beautiful uptrend is in progress with consecutively higher tops and bottom in place.
Comment:
I AMBULLISH AND INCREASES MY LONGS. Bitcoin price formed a base above the $41,800 level and started a steady increase. BTC was able to clear the $42,200 and $42,500 resistance levels. It also reclaimed the 100 hourly Simple moving average. The price climbed above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $43,488 swing high to the $42,320 low. The bulls even pushed the price above the $43,000 level. However, the bears seem to be active near the $43,200 level.Bulls broke this resistancce and now expecting 45000 again

Eactlylike I said:Some guys manipulatiing BTC .Here i the evidence: Byzantine General, a crypto analyst, noted the significant increase in open interest, suggesting that leverage has been a major factor propelling Bitcoin’s price higher. He stated, “I can’t help but have the feeling that BTC is trading like someone knows something. A billion $ in open interest got added in the past couple hours. It’s mostly this leverage that pushed us higher I think.” Source:https://www.tradingview.com/news/newsbtc:e91084298094b:0-bitcoin-price-surges-past-71-000-4-key-reasons-behind-the-rally/ Now I100% will only go short BTC.Every single time
Comment:
EYES OPEN:SMCI!!!!! the next hype? More than 9Billons $ BTC on asset.Interetingly the chart of SMCI i very similar to BTC chart(Compare this! TODAY! NOW).What does it mean? When BTC ries,SMCI rises and visecersa. And if SMCI down BTC down. How big is SMCI dept of assts?How lowits lirealnet liquidity.Alone a bubble and crah of SMCI could bring BTC down to the deepest levels possible. Cannot imagine that?Then look agin on SMCI chart. To equalize the debts SMCI needs to sell its BTCand this alone will surge BTC.The list of similar companies like SMCI islong and large.Sothink100 time again, before you say,you are holding BTC.
