FOMC

FOMC news release, preparing for short positions BTC ended up printing a swing pattern failure. So I am now preparing for shorts positions and this chart shows when I am anticipating to find my best entries on those. This chart also shows that I am not looking to take any long positions unless we see a strong move higher form the buyers. So I am preparing for short positions now but waiting for the right signal from BTC. And when it’s time to enter, we need to have positions ready. This may happy overnight or when I’m not able to post so wanted to share some setups that I am watching. The idea here is NOT to enter all of them, but to choose the ones that look the best when BTC is in it’s rejection area or sell pressure is showing up. The best way to manage these is to set alerts on each one on TradingView so you are alerted when each is near our target zone. I won’t be providing much detail on each of these setups as they are all very similar. Really just wanting to see price action come back and bearishly retest the recent resistance.

FOMC Price Reaction Analysis, Support & Resistance, $SPY/$QQQ- Looking for a hourly Bear flag on SPY and QQQ after this huge move down. - XLF and KRE top watch to see if we break fear lows/52 week low. Fear would likely come back in if we do break the lows - looking for SOXX/SMH to go from lead bull turning into lead bear - Rate hikes is a head wind more for QQQ then SPY, so after Powell saying no rate cuts this year, we would likely see QQQ lead to the down side as well just like it lead to the upside. - FOMC reaction day after is always the real move, so tomorrow we need to see if bears can follow through or todays just a small reaction move.

Key Levels and US Market Review for the Asian session open 23/03US Share markets indexes move lower after the US Fed raised interest rates by 0.25% as expected. There are a number of concerns that the market sees and is reacting to as risk assets take a hit. The US Fed showed concern for the banking crisis and expect credit conditions to tighten which does not bode well for growth in an interest rate raising environment. I expect that we will see more risk off trading in the coming days and will see Europe play catchup with a move lower on open in the coming session. UK CPI showed inflation is moving up which I expect will cap any rally into the FTSE100 (UK100 Index). Asian markets will open weaker to follow on from the US session. A review of the price action from the European session and the US session where I look at some key levels to watch and the price action setups I expect to see play out on the major markets below.

🔥 Bitcoin Short-Term Bullish Triangle Before FOMC MeetingBTC has been trading inside a bullish triangle pattern over the last couple of days. With the FOMC meeting around the corner, I'm expecting some volatile price action today and tomorrow. In my view, it's likely that we're going to hit $28,600 today. Whether it's a fake pump before the FOMC meeting (and a dump after), or we get a bullish reaction and move up significantly. The $28,400 area is proving to be a strong resistance at this point. Wait for a clear break out, ideally with high volume.

BTC - Why 30,000 Is A Strong Rejection ⁉️Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst. As per my last analysis, we know that BTC broke above the big inverse head and shoulders neckline. 📈 Thus, the momentum has been shifted from bearish to bullish. BTC is currently bullish trading inside the red rising broadening wedge pattern. 📌 Here is why the 30,000 is a strong rejection: 1- Round number => 30,000 2- Classic Support Zone Turned Resistance from Weekly timeframe 3- Supply zone marked on the chart 4- Intersecting with the upper red trendline acting as a non-horizontal resistance 📉 Hence, as BTC approaches the 30k - 32k zone, we will be expecting the bears to take over for a medium-term correction. 📌 For the bulls to take over from a MACRO perspective , we need a weekly candle close above 32,000 📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management. Good luck! All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly! ~Rich

BTC Before FOMC 03/23Bitcoin Analysis: 4H Chart According to recent events on a macroeconomic perspective and TA on the weekly chart I conclude on the path Bitcoin could take. - Major bearish divergence building (Higher highs price action, lower highs in the RSI) - BTC about to face strong resistance (confluence area) - Major possibility of rejection Bitcoin is approaching what many in the field are calling the possibility of having another Bull run. However I remain bearish (but who knows I can be wrong). DXY is showing a clear H&S pattern so this can invalidate my theory. I wanted to share this before the FOMC decision is taken, I expect a big ugly set of candles during the time of the press conference and right after the decision is determined. This is what I see, hence I wanted to share. Happy Wednesday and trade safe.

Will the FOMC continue the US30s run higher?Traders will be looking forward to today’s FOMC seeking future direction on rates as inflation starts to cool but remains high. The new banking crisis has also significantly influenced the markets over the last several weeks. Stocks have been one of the markets hardest hit by the uncertainty thrown up by the banking crisis. The US30, in particular, has been hard hit, and sellers cut just over 7% off the index in four weeks. Looking at recent price action, we can see some buyer confidence returning after bailouts, and political action was taken to help stop the rout. The US30 held support and broke its tight range yesterday with a 0.98% rally. Inflation and rates had been key influences before the banking issues arose. Today’s FOMC could play an important role in the short term. Rates are now basically priced in with a 25-point increase, and Fed trackers see a 15% chance of a hold at an 85% chance of a 25-point increase. The statement for us is the important part unless we see a hold which would be unexpected and should give the US30 a boost through its trendline. If the Fed remains hawkish and discounts the banking issues, this could set off selling with worry over higher rates and possible inaction to support the sector. If the message is more to the dovish side, we will be looking for further upside from the new up leg, and hopefully, a break of the current trend could show signs that the correction could be starting to wain. Minor resistance remains at 32,600, and support is seen at 31,850. Price continues to hold a series of LHs and LLs, but a new push higher could break that pattern. The short term comes down to the fed message, which will be released at 05:00 am AEDT with the Federal funds rate. The press conference follows at 05:30 am.

FED FOMC Meeting - Bank Failures in a High Inflation EnvironmentIn a high inflationary environment, bank failures can have a significant impact on the broader economy, and the likelihood of an interest rate hike may increase. When a bank fails, it can reduce the amount of credit available in the economy, which can slow down economic activity and increase unemployment. This can further exacerbate inflationary pressures, as reduced economic activity can lead to decreased supply of goods and services, driving up prices. To address high inflation, the central bank may increase interest rates to reduce borrowing and spending, and to encourage saving. Higher interest rates can make borrowing more expensive, which can decrease the demand for credit, and can also make saving more attractive, which can increase the supply of funds available for investment. However, increasing interest rates can also have a negative impact on the economy, as it can slow down economic growth and potentially lead to a recession. Additionally, higher interest rates can increase the cost of servicing debt, which can be challenging for heavily indebted borrowers. Overall, the decision to increase interest rates in response to high inflation and bank failures will depend on the specific circumstances at the time. The central bank will need to carefully consider the trade-offs between addressing inflation and supporting economic growth, and may need to take other measures to maintain the stability of the financial system and support the broader economy. I predict 50 BPS just my opinion Majority of macro economists and banks predict 25BPS Whether a 25 basis point (BPS) interest rate hike is bullish or bearish depends on the broader economic and market conditions at the time, and the expectations of investors. In general, an interest rate hike can be seen as a bearish signal for stocks, as it can increase borrowing costs and reduce the profitability of companies. Higher interest rates can also make bonds and other fixed income investments more attractive, which can lead investors to shift their money out of stocks and into bonds. On the other hand, an interest rate hike can be seen as a bullish signal for the currency, as it can increase the demand for the currency by making it more attractive to foreign investors. A stronger currency can also help to reduce inflationary pressures by making imports cheaper. However, the impact of a 25 BPS interest rate hike is typically relatively small, and may be already priced into the market by the time it is announced. Additionally, the central bank's accompanying statement and forward guidance can also have an impact on market sentiment. Overall, the market's reaction to a 25 BPS interest rate hike is likely to depend on a range of factors, including the broader economic and market conditions, the expectations of investors, and the central bank's messaging.

AUDUSD Outlook 22 March 2023The AUDUSD traded with significant volatility overnight as the price reversed strongly from the 0.6730 resistance area to trade down to the 0.6650 price level. However, the 0.6650 price level coincides with the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level and resisted further downward moves. Currently the price is trading just below the round number level of 0.67 which also aligns with the shorter term fib retracement level of 61.8% If the price is able to break above the 0.67 price level, the AUDUSD is likely to continue trading up to the 0.6730 resistance level. A bigger move to the upside would be driven by the possible weakness in the DXY, especially with the FOMC decision due. The next resistance level beyond 0.6730 is at 0.6780 and 0.6825.

Gold Outlook 22 March 2023Gold retraced strongly following the move to the 2000 price level. Forming a head and shoulder pattern, Gold traded down to the 1938 price level which coincides with the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement price level The next directional move on Gold is going to be highly dependent on the volatility of the DXY, especially with the FOMC interest rate decision due. In the short term, if the price breaks below 1933 (the 61.8% fib level), gold could continue trading lower, down to the key support level of 1914. However, in the medium term, anticipating further DXY weakness, look for Gold to bounce either at the fib level or the 1914 support level to continue with the uptrend to retest the 2000 price level again.

FOMC Preparation (DXY) 22nd March 2023Overnight, the DXY continued to weaken and traded down to the 103-round number support level. However, the price bounced from the level to consolidate at the current level of 103.18. It is likely that the DXY could continue to consolidate along this level in the lead up to the FOMC interest rate decision due on Thursday morning. The expectation is for the FOMC to increase rates by 25bps to take the interest rates to 5.00%. This decision is likely to have been priced in. IF the FOMC decides to hold rates, due to the uncertainty in the market due arising from the banking crisis, this could see the DXY drop significantly to the downside. In addition to the interest rate decision, pay attention to the accompanying statement and the press conference which follows. A dovish tone, citing concern over the current market turmoil could see the DXY continue to weaken further. Ultimately, if the DXY trades below 103, the next support level is 102.63. And beyond that, the next key level is at 101.55.
