📊 FOMC Meeting: The Next Big Market Test
The Fed’s September meeting is now the main focus for traders.
The rate decision is scheduled for Sept. 16 at 6:00 PM UTC, followed by Jerome Powell’s press conference at 6:30 PM UTC.
Markets are expecting a 25 bps rate hike, so the hike itself may not be the biggest surprise.
The real question is: What comes next?
👀 Traders will be watching the Fed’s dot plot, inflation outlook and Powell’s comments for clues about future rate decisions.
If the Fed sounds more hawkish, BTC, stocks and other risk assets could face selling pressure.
If the message is more dovish, markets could get some relief, with investors looking for more liquidity and lower rates ahead.
For BTC, I’d avoid chasing the first move. FOMC events can create sharp moves in both directions before the market chooses a trend.
My focus:
🔹 Fed rate decision
🔹 Dot plot
🔹 Powell’s tone
🔹 BTC reaction around key levels
🔹 Dollar, gold and stock-market response
The rate decision matters. But the Fed’s next message may matter even more.
What’s your view hawkish or dovish Fed?
