10Y yield drops 4 bps to 4.25% – Bond rally signals that the market does not expect tighter Fed policy.
2Y yield falls below 4% – Dovish repricing of Fed expectations.
Impact on BTC: Bullish as lower bond yields typically support BTC upside.
DXY Gains, But Limited Upside
DXY up 0.2% – Modest strength, but not aggressive enough to weigh on risk assets.
Impact on BTC: Neutral as the slight DXY gain does not significantly pressure crypto.
BTC Key Levels: Post-FOMC Outlook
$85,700 - $87,300 (Resistance) – If risk-on momentum continues, BTC could test this range.
$82,400 (Pivot Zone) – Key level determining the short-term trend.
$79,600 - $77,800 (Support) – If the market pulls back after the initial FOMC euphoria.
Key Takeaways
If bond yields continue to drop, BTC remains bullish with a potential target of $87K+.
If markets start questioning the Fed's credibility, DXY could strengthen, pressuring BTC.
Monitor market reaction over the next 24-48 hours to see if the FOMC euphoria holds or if profit-taking emerges.
