The U.S. Federal Reserve is expected to raise rates by 25 basis points in the upcoming meeting. This anticipation has weighed on U.S. equities, causing key indices, including the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq, to end the week in negative territory.
Simultaneously, the cryptocurrency market mirrors this uncertainty. Bitcoin, the leading digital currency, has been oscillating between the 20-day EMA of $29,800 and the resistance level of $31,000. The bulls are determined to safeguard the 20-day EMA level.
If bullish sentiment persists, and traders successfully overcome the $31,500 resistance, we might witness an upward rally, possibly reaching $32,400 initially, and even soaring to $40,000.
However, the bearish camp isn’t passive. They are expected to defend the resistance level and aim to pull Bitcoin below the support of $29,500. Should they succeed, we could see a drop to the 50DMA of $28,000.
