However, the path to recovery is still in its early stages, with market observers closely eyeing the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting scheduled for September 20. While most market participants anticipate the Federal Reserve maintaining the status quo on interest rates, potential surprises may emerge during Fed Chair Jerome Powell‘s subsequent press conference.

The FOMC meeting takes center stage this week, with Federal Reserve officials set to decide the course of interest rates. Powell faces a challenging task, as recent data on the US consumer price index (CPI) showed slight increases in headline and core inflation. Nevertheless, core inflation remains below its peak in July 2022.

In terms of technical analysis, Bitcoin displays a mild bearish tendency, hovering around the $26,800 resistance level, just above the $26,500 support. This pattern hints at a potential double-top formation.

Throughout 2023, Bitcoin’s price movements have been heavily influenced by speculation surrounding the approval of a Spot Bitcoin ETF by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). However, recent weeks have seen limited updates on this front, which may be contributing to Bitcoin’s current price stability.
