Bitcoin: BTCUSD bulls take a breather as FOMC week begins
Bitcoin (BTCUSD) has been under pressure for the third consecutive day as traders cautiously approach a crucial week. After briefly halting a two-week losing streak, Bitcoin is struggling once more as everyone eyes the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) September policy announcement set for Wednesday.
Bitcoin buyers lack conviction
Be it the repeated reversal from a seven-week-old descending resistance line or bearish MACD signals, Bitcoin (BTCUSD) sellers appear flexing muscles ahead of this week’s key US Federal Reserve (Fed) Interest Rate Decision. It’s worth noting, however, that a weeklong bullish trend channel joins a convergence of 50 and 100 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to restrict the short-term downtrend of the top-tier cryptocurrency pair.
Key technical levels to watch
Firstly, a convergence of the key EMAs and the aforementioned bullish channel’s bottom line offers an important challenge to the BTCUSD sellers around the $58,350-200 zone. Following that, Bitcoin sellers can aim for an eight-day-old horizontal support surrounding $55,600. If the bears keep the reins past $55,600, the monthly of nearly $52,550 and the $50,000 threshold will be in the spotlight.
On the upside, Bitcoin will first encounter resistance around $60,000 and a downward trend line near $60,300. A successful break above this could lead to testing the bullish channel's top line around $61,900 and the $62,000 mark.
BTCUSD sellers to keep the reins
Bitcoin sellers remain in control, with the cryptocurrency facing significant resistance and a long, uncertain path ahead.
