Bitcoin Eyes $28K Push as Traders Demand CPI Day BTC Price Volatility

Bitcoin tracked $27,500 on May 10 as markets geared up for what should be a positive United States inflation print.

CPI Set for Months of Decline

Data from TradingView followed BTC/USD as it lingered in a narrow trading range ahead of the April Consumer Price Index (CPI) release. A classic volatility catalyst for risk assets, CPI forms one of the key metrics the Federal Reserve considers when changing interest rates.

The next change is a full month away, but government and private-sector metrics predict declining inflation to persist and even accelerate in the coming months.

Expert Predicts Steep Decline in Inflation

“A little bit of stagnation now, but into the coming two to three months, we’re likely to see a gradual decline, and actually a pretty steep decline, in inflation,” financial commentator Tedtalksmacro said in part of YouTube analysis on May 9.

Tedtalksmacro referenced both the Cleveland Fed inflation forecast and, separately, “Trueflation,” an unofficial leading indicator for inflation trends which also showed further substantial declines to come.

In a subsequent tweet on the day, Tedtalksmacro separately showed potential BTC price changes relative to various possible CPI numbers, along with the probabilities as per JPMorgan Chase. According to CME Group’s FedWatch Tool, market expectations for the Fed to pause its interest rate hikes to tame inflation in June stood at 80% at the time of writing.

Binance Traders Up Spot Selling

Turning to short-term BTC price action, the lasting impact of the Binance “FUD” episode earlier in the week meant that Bitcoin bulls remained unable to reclaim levels closer to $30,000.

Analyzing the status quo among traders, monitoring resource Skew described the market as “overly saturated with shorts,” with market makers still selling into small price upticks.

“Binance spot is the market selling aggressor today,” part of Twitter commentary stated.

Overnight, fellow monitoring resource Material Indicators noted bid liquidity increasing just below the $26,000 mark on the Binance BTC/USD order book.

Anticipation Builds Ahead of CPI Report

“Expecting to see liquidity moving around the order book between now and the morning economic reports,” part of comments on an accompanying chart read.

“The question is, will some of what’s there now get cleared out and make way for volatility or will local support and resistance get insulated with buy and sell walls?”
