#Fed Cuts Rates By 25 Bps# #Gate Square Mid Autumn Creator Incentive#

The Fed trimmed rates by 25 bps to 4.00%–4.25%, opening the door to more liquidity and renewed risk appetite. Historically, that’s been a tailwind for BTC and alts — but what’s happening on the charts today?

On Gate.io (BTC/USDT, 1D), price is holding around $117,500, with a 24h range between $114,720 – $117,890.

🔹Support:$115,400–$116,200. Losing this zone risks deeper pullbacks.
🔹Resistance:$117,500–$119,000. A breakout could unlock $121,200–$124,000.

💡 Did I add positions last night?
I didn’t rush in at the announcement. Instead, I’m watching BTC’s consolidation near resistance — confirmation of a breakout above $119K would give me stronger conviction.

💡 Short-term strategy with volatility?
When trading futures, I keep my risk strict: open trades with no more than 1% of my deposit and avoid using high leverage. This way, even if volatility spikes, my downside remains limited while I stay ready for opportunities.

💡 Which sectors have upside?

🔹BTC & ETH remain the most reliable beneficiaries of fresh liquidity.
🔹Larger-cap alts (L1s, DeFi blue chips) tend to outperform once BTC establishes direction.
🔹High-risk small caps may only shine if the Fed signals more cuts later in the year — until then, I stay cautious.

Bottom line: The Fed’s cut is a signal, but not yet a full pivot. BTC is at a critical level — holding above $115K while testing $119K resistance. My strategy: stay patient, manage risk, and scale in only with controlled exposure.
