More Crypto Online, an analyst, highlighted that XLM has reached its blue target zone this week. If XLM goes above $0.255, there is a high probability that buyers will start to gain strength early in the week. A five-wave move is a clear indicator of a trend shift, according to the analyst.

XLM Downtrend Persists Despite Support

Moreover, Zain Haider, another analyst, mentioned that XLM is still in a steady downtrend, as indicated by its recent performance and its inability to move higher in recent times. Buyers still have to overcome XLM’s current resistance to changing its trend.

Cryptocurrency is currently at its major support zone at about $0.15, and if it goes below this zone, there is a high probability that token will go to about $0.09 in the coming days. This is the next major zone to watch in the token, and there is no indication of a reversal in higher time frames.

XLM Stays Bearish Below Key EMAs

The coin currently trades below all of the major Exponential Moving Averages (EMA). The EMA measures the direction of the trend through the price levels. The 20-day EMA currently sits at $0.1848, while the 50-day EMA currently sits at $0.2069. The price currently trades below these levels, which is bearish.

The longer EMA levels are also bearish, with the 100-day EMA currently sitting at $0.2347 and the 200-day EMA currently sitting at $0.2667. This represents the major levels of resistance in the market, and the rejection of the price at these levels represents the selling pressure in the market.

XLM now faces a crucial point. Buyers are still cautious, and sellers are still dictating the market as the token tests a major zone. A fall below $0.16 has the potential to send the token to its deepest downside target in coming months.

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 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…
