On December 9, 2025 (GMT-5), Bitcoin (BTC) treaded water cautiously ahead of the Federal Reserve’s rate call, swinging through a classic “pop-and-drop” session. Starting at $89,800, it peaked at $92,620 before bullish momentum fizzled out, sending the price sliding below the critical $90,000 psychological mark to a low of $89,800; by the close, it had stabilized around $90,547.60, eking out a meager 1.06% 24-hour gain. Surging volatility roiled the market, wiping out roughly 96,600 traders in liquidations totaling $280.18 million, while persistent outflows from U.S. Bitcoin ETFs and softening spot demand added to the headwinds. Technicals painted a mixed picture: the 20-day moving average at $89,370 acted as a reliable short-term floor, but the 30-day moving average ($92,387) and the $93,000–$95,000 zone loomed as tough resistance barriers. With the Fed’s rate decision looming this week, investors hit the sidelines, sitting tight for clearer cues on the market’s next move. And as for the outlook?
Tomorrow’s bias leans bearish, with a target price set at $91,288.06.
