Bitcoin price trades below the current short-term average BTC realized price<\/a> of $62.6k, a key support level during the bull market. Traders are expecting massive volatility amid the US PCE inflation data and quarterly options expiry setting the stage for market direction in the coming days. Will BTC price drop to $55k or recover to $65k in the next few days?<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Traders Look for Cues<\/h2>\n

The Federal Reserve\u2019s preferred gauge to measure inflation PCE<\/a> and core PCE came in line last month, but Wall Street giants such as JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley anticipate inflation to cool, with the Fed rate cut starting in September.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In the new estimates, all banks see headline PCE inflation slowing to 2.5% from 2.7%. Also, core PCE inflation to further cool to 2.6% from 2.8%. Markets are already moving higher due to high speculation on Fed rate cuts as inflation globally cools and the Fed likely follows other central banks in rate cuts soon.<\/p>\n

However, IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva on Thursday said \u201cThe Fed should keep policy rates at current levels until at least late 2024.\u201d She added that there are ongoing upside risks to inflation due to robust US economic growth. The strong US labor market is the key factor behind the delay in rate cuts. The IMF is more optimistic than the Fed about hitting the 2% target rate by mid-2025, which is ahead of the Fed\u2019s own projection for 2026.<\/p>\n

Analyst Says BTC Price Risk Falling to $55k<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Other reasons that risk a massive downfall in BTC price are weekly RSI declining despite buy-the-dip by investors, lack of institutional buying as seen in spot Bitcoin ETFs, and rising selling pressure due to macro.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the\u00a0US dollar index<\/strong>\u00a0(DXY<\/a>) is dropping from 106.12 ahead PCE, with the current reading at 105.91. The US 10-year Treasury yield<\/strong> jumped above 4.3% as US president Joe Biden and his predecessor Donald Trump<\/a> clashed in their first presidential debate. Bitcoin moves opposite to DXY and Treasury yields, and the current data indicated volatility and uncertainty.<\/p>\n
