Bitcoin (BTC) On Track For Strongest September Performance, Is $90,000 Next?

Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has led the market recovery with its surge to the $63,000 mark. Following the recent developments, the flagship cryptocurrencys performance has seen an 8% weekly surge, driving BTC to one of its best September performances since its creation.

The rest of the sector followed BTCs lead, dropping 12% to a market capitalization of $1.81 trillion earlier this month. Since then, the market has seen a significant boost, mostly fueled by the US Federal Reserves (Fed) rate cut. Following the Feds announcement, the sector recovered 5%, continuing its ascending trajectory throughout the weekend. Due to the positive market sentiment, crypto investment products ended the week with $321 million in inflows, the second weekly positive net flows in a row. The inflows were led by Bitcoin-based products, which registered $284 million last week, according to the CoinShares report. BTC, propelled also by Kamala Harris recent acknowledgment of the crypto industry, recovered 20% from the monthly lows of September 6. The rebound pushed the cryptocurrencys price toward the $64,000 resistance level, which was last held a month ago. After failing to reclaim the key resistance level, Bitcoins price has been hovering between the $63,000-$63,900 range throughout Monday morning, registering six green daily candles since September 17. Will BTC See Four Green Months In A Row? BTCs recent price action has translated into green numbers in the month-to-date (MTD) timeframe, making September a green month for the cryptocurrency. Coinglass data reveals that the flagship crypto displays a 7.94% return MTD. This performance was noted by some market watchers, who suggest that Bitcoin is on its way to registering its best September so far. In an X post, Crypto Jelle highlighted that BTC is currently on track for the strongest September performance in its history after its current MTD return surpassed that of September 2016. To the analyst, the flagship cryptocurrency is preparing for a promising performance next quarter. Jelle also pointed out that BTC has only closed September with green numbers three times. However, the times this has happened, the cryptocurrencys monthly returns have closed in the green for four months straight. This suggests that Bitcoin may be on the verge of a massive bull run for Q4. Close this month in the green, and the odds are high October, November and December will close green as well. He pointed out that this week will be decision time for the flagship cryptocurrency, as a higher high is within an arms reach. A push above the $65,000 resistance level would flip the narrative and see BTC moving to levels not seen since early August.

Ultimately, the analyst considers that Bitcoin wont trade within this pattern for much longer. As of this writing, the flagship trades at $63,700, a 1.7% and 10% surge in the daily and weekly timeframes. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Crypto Watch: Why Todays FOMC Meeting Is The Most Important Of Your Life

For the crypto and broader financial market, FOMC day is upon us once again today. And analysts agree that today’s meeting will be one of the most important in recent years. Kurt S. Altrichter, a financial advisor and founder of Ivory Hill, even describes today’s FOMC meeting as the most important of your life. In a new post on X, Altrichter explains why. FOMC Preview Central to today’s FOMC meeting is the Federal Reserve’s potential indication of a September rate cut. According to Altrichter, the financial markets are almost unanimously anticipating this move, with Fed fund futures indicating a near-certain likelihood of such an outcome. “Market expectation is a strong signal for a September rate cut,” Altrichter points out, marking todays update as a pivotal moment for financial markets. The key question for today is: How strongly does the Fed signal a September rate cut? the expert explains. Investors are directed to pay close attention to the FOMCs statement at 2:00 pm ET, especially the third paragraph, which could subtly signal the Fed’s confidence in reaching its inflation targets. Related Reading: XRP Price Poised For Ultimate Breakout With $18 Price Target: Crypto Analyst Altrichter advises, “Look at the 3rd paragraph for this key sentence: The Committee does not expect it will be appropriate to reduce the target range until it has gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably toward 2 percent.” Any modification in this wording would be a clear signal that the Fed is nearing its inflation control goals, potentially paving the way for rate adjustments. Altrichter outlines several potential outcomes from the meeting, each associated with specific market reactions. In a dovish scenario, the Fed signals a rate cut for September. Then, Altrichter expects a broad market rally, especially in sectors less sensitive to interest rates. “Yields and the dollar should fall modestly with a modest rally in commodities,” Altrichter predicts, suggesting significant movements in standard and sector-specific indexes. In a hawkish scenario, there will be no change in the forward guidance by the US central bank. If the Fed maintains its current stance without hinting at future cuts, the markets might experience a downturn. “Look out below and expect a sharp decline. SPX should fall by 1-2%,” he warns, noting that tech and growth sectors might relatively outperform due to their appeal during higher yield periods. How Will Bitcoin And Crypto React? The potential adjustments in US monetary policy bear direct consequences for the Bitcoin and crypto markets. Crypto, often viewed as alternative investments, reacts sensitively to shifts in monetary policy, particularly regarding interest rates. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bull Cycle Likely To Go On Till Mid-2025: CryptoQuant CEO If the dovish scenario materializes, this could make Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies more appealing. A signal of lower future rates could drive increased investment into the crypto market, potentially leading to price increases as investors seek higher returns in alternative assets. Conversely, should the Fed signal reluctance to cut rates, indicating a stronger economic outlook or concerns about inflation, this could strengthen the US dollar and increase yields on traditional financial instruments. Such an environment might lead to a pullback in the crypto markets, as the comparative advantage of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies diminishes against strengthening traditional yields. Max Schwartzman, CEO of Because Bitcoin Inc, commented via X: FOMC is [today] & its incredibly important as we get into the end of this fed cycle… Here is how the last 11 meetings have gone for Bitcoin Thus, today’s FOMC meeting is a watershed moment for financial markets globally, with significant implications for both traditional and crypto markets. As Altrichter succinctly puts it, “A Sept Fed rate cut has driven the 2024 bull market. Tomorrow’s meeting will either reinforce that tailwind or refute it. If the Fed signals a cut, the rally continues. No signal: markets could get ugly.” At press time, BTC traded at $66,462. Featured image from Shutterstock, chart from TradingView.com
