Bitcoin (BTC) is showing signs of attempting to move past its recent downtrend, fueled by a more dovish approach from the Federal Reserve and a shift in President Donald Trump’s trade policies, according to Matrixport’s latest analysis.
The market environment appears more favorable compared to recent weeks, setting up the potential for a recovery in the cryptocurrency space.
Analysts at Matrixport suggest that these macroeconomic changes could help stabilize the market and offer a more positive outlook for Bitcoin’s price.
Additionally, Matrixport highlights a reduction in the typical end-of-quarter selling pressure from arbitrage funds.
With lower funding rates, the drive for aggressive selling has diminished, and most of the sales from these funds seem to be tapering off. While the current market catalysts aren’t strong enough to push Bitcoin to record highs, the sentiment has definitely improved.
At present, Bitcoin remains above critical support levels, with traders closely watching developments in global economic policies, which could steer the next phase of the market’s direction.
