  • Polygon rockets 17%, trading at $0.14. 
  • POL’s trading volume has skyrocketed by 127%.

With the mixed sentiment across the crypto assets, both the red and green waves are seen on the charts. The overall market sentiment is neutral as of today, with the Fear and Greed Index value resting at 41. Leading cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), are losing momentum, currently trading at $89.6K and $3K, respectively. 

However, Polygon (prev. MATIC) (POL) has grabbed the attention by jumping over 17.14% in the past 24 hours. The token opened the day trading at a bottom of $0.1264, and it has tested and broken a few crucial resistance zones between $0.1274 and $0.1496. Then gradually, the POL price mounted to a high of $0.1506. 

With this recent surge in value, Polygon (prev. MATIC) trades at around $0.1485 according to the CoinMarketCap data. In addition, the daily trading volume of the asset has likely skyrocketed by over 127.26%, and is sitting approximately at the $221.19 million mark. 

Do POL Bulls Have Enough Fuel to Keep Pushing Higher?

Polygon (prev. MATIC) has shown an ascending trading pace, and its price might rise to the resistance near $0.15. Upon breaking this range, the asset’s bullish pressure strengthens and pushes the golden cross out, testing the subsequent resistance above the $0.1516 level. 

If the asset’s momentum takes a turn toward the bearish side, instead of sustaining the uptrend, the Polygon (prev. MATIC) price would find its nearby support at $0.1470. Further correction on the downside invites the death cross to unfold, sending the price below $0.1464.

The MACD line of POL has moved above the signal line, likely hinting at a positive outlook. Also, it might continue the upside momentum if it stays strong and moves ahead. Besides, the CMF indicator found at 0.23 reflects strong buying pressure in the Polygon (prev. MATIC) market. Notably, the money is flowing into the asset, supporting the bullish bias.

With the overbought market sentiment, POL has a strong bullish momentum, as the daily RSI stood at 74.33. There is a risk of a short-term pullback or consolidation, as buying pressure may be overheating. Moreover, the BBP value of Polygon (prev. MATIC) at 0.0227 implies slight bullish dominance. This weak uptrend may continue rather than a decisive breakout.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
