BTC: What to expect on Monday?Bitcoin / U.S. dollarBITSTAMP:BTCUSDformula_capitalBTC: What to expect on Monday? Sunday is the perfect time to sync up with the market while most people are resting. Historically, Monday sets the tone for the entire week, often bringing increased volatility after the CME futures open. Currently, we can see the price of BTC on the 1-hour chart moving neatly within an ascending channel, gathering strength before the next impulse. This is the calm before the storm. Fundamentally, everyone is awaiting this week's US Federal Reserve meeting, where there is a high probability of a rate cut. This could weaken the dollar and provide a powerful boost to risk assets, including Bitcoin. Technically, we have run into a key resistance zone of $117,200 - $117,500. It is here that the short-term fate of the trend is being decided. A breakout above this level will open the way up for us. My plan is simple: I am not entering a position right now, but rather waiting for confirmation. I need a confident breakout and for the price to hold above $117,500. If that happens, my first target will be the $119,000 area.
