(CTN News) – Bitcoin’s downtrend continues as Fed decision fails to boost crypto, despite Fed decision to boost crypto

The Fed’s recent decision and comments, however, have not been enough to inspire crypto investors to move from their entrenched positions.

As the market cap of the crypto market fell 0.25% on the day, it was significantly less than the Nasdaq’s losses (-1.5%) and more reflective of the dollar’s 0.3% appreciation over the same period of time.

The sell-off in Bitcoin intensifies in the vicinity of the 50-day moving average, which persists in a downtrend.

However, with a dip towards $26.8K, Bitcoin is once again being dominated by buyers as it is once again reaching a level of support. It won’t be long before this tug-of-war comes to an end. There is a good chance that the market will decide its direction before Friday.
