Market analysts noted that this BTC behavior often occurs ahead of a Fed rate cut announcement, and the rally remains intact. Several experts are highlighting bullish on-chain metrics to support the upward movement.
Bitcoin Price Pullback Could Be Temporary and Short-Lived
Crypto analyst Michael van de Poppe said the recent market pullback appears to be a routine correction ahead of the upcoming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, rather than a sign of weakness. The inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs highlight strength here.
According to van de Poppe, the Bitcoin price is maintaining strength above the key $112,000 support level, suggesting stability in the broader market structure.
He added that he expects Bitcoin to hold current levels and resume its uptrend once this short-term correction phase concludes.
Nothing bad is happening to the markets.
It's the standard correction pre-FOMC.#Bitcoin is holding up above the crucial level at $112K and looking for support.
I'm expecting it to be holding up here, and to continue the uptrend after this test. pic.twitter.com/n2wjwZPDkj
He cited the past instances during 2013, 2017, and 2021, where a breakout from these chart patterns triggered a major rally ahead.
Usually, a rising/ascending wedge pattern would be considered bearish but in Bitcoin's case, each of its macro rising wedges have resulted in huge breakouts and bull runs.

Robert Kiyosaki Expects BTC to Hit $200K This Year
Despite recent selling pressure, veteran investor Robert Kiyosaki still predicts that Bitcoin could reach $200K this year.
WHY LOSERS lose:
I was showing a friend my coin base app, explaining that a few years ago it was pathetic. Today my app showed my friend I have millions in Bitcoin…. and I think Bitcoin will double in price this year…. Possibly a high of $200k.
On the other hand, Bitcoin’s derivatives market has flipped back to positive funding after a sharp reset that cleared excessive leverage from the system.
The move follows a wave of negative funding that flushed out leveraged positions, paid out short traders, and cooled off open interest, highlighting renewed bullish momentum.
