Fed puts bearish background

3 Nov 2022

Morning folks,

So, the Fed decision should not become a surprise for those who read our BTC fundamental reports. In last two weeks we've spent time for in-depth analysis to whether Fed stands near the pivot or not. And have come to conclusion that Fed remains tight, terminal rate should increase 4.5-4.75% widely anticipated level and move above 5%. Recent Fed statement was hawkish and puts bearish background for BTC market.

BTC shows weaker reaction compares FX and gold market mostly because it has lost 60% of its capitalization and rest speculators have not enough funds to trigger big moves. Now, despite BTC stands by far above 20K area, we do not consider taking any new long positions and suggests that advantage stands on a bears' side.

P.S.
NFP also hardly makes impact on market performance. Because, indirectly, due to the Fed's tone, we could suggest that NFP numbers should somewhere around expectations.
