Matrixport: Bitcoin to Revisit $112,000 or Lower, Market Awaits Fed FOMC Meeting as Key Catalyst
BlockBeats News, August 18th, Matrixport released a new report stating that Bitcoin failed to hold the downtrend line, which initially signaled a breakout and recently fell below the former support. Although not overly concerned about further downside risk, due to the market remaining cautious ahead of the September Fed rate decision, the Bitcoin price may once again test the $112,000 level.
Matrixport does not expect this year's Jackson Hole meeting to release any substantial signals, as it tends to be more of a discussion platform rather than a market driver. Currently, the market is awaiting a real catalyst, with the September 17th FOMC meeting being the most critical event.
Technically, Bitcoin is currently in a "no man's land" between $112,000 and $117,292. This leaves traders with two clear strategies: buy on a breakout above the range or accumulate on a pullback near $112,000. In other words, the market is in a period of observation, waiting for a clear direction.
