Bitcoin hovers around $115K before weekly close

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView revealed BTC/USD pulling back toward $115,000 after reaching $116,800 — its highest since August 23. This suggests buying pressure remains insufficient to sustain the rally in the short term.

Popular trader Skew remarked, “Price is being walked down again going into a new week,” while noting strong bid depth just below $115K on exchange order books. He concluded: “Time to pay attention.”

Rekt Capital: Bitcoin must reclaim $114K support before targeting $117K

While many investors are eyeing a breakout above $117,000, analyst Rekt Capital emphasized that the immediate goal is to reclaim $114,000 as solid support.

According to him, only by establishing this support can BTC attract the premium buying necessary to break higher levels. He added that the current bull cycle is far from over and that the previous $124,500 peak is unlikely to be the final top.

Rekt Capital stressed that a weekly close above $114K would be a clearly “bullish” signal, reinforcing market optimism.

Markets await Fed’s rate-cut decision

The main driver this week is the U.S. Federal Reserve’s monetary policy meeting. Analysts broadly expect at least a 0.25% rate cut, aimed at supporting the U.S. economy.

In its latest update, trading firm Mosaic Asset Company highlighted that a combination of loose financial conditions, improving leading indicators, and broad market participation is favorable for both stocks and crypto assets.

“This supports the earnings outlook, which is good for equity prices, while the Fed is set to resume rate cuts. That could create an excellent trading environment heading into next year,” the report stated.

With this backdrop, Bitcoin is expected to see heightened volatility as markets digest the Fed’s decision. Traders recommend watching the $114K and $115K zones closely as key levels for BTC’s next move.
