The macro calendar is stacked in a way that crypto hasn\u2019t seen in months, with monetary policy, geopolitics and Washington dysfunction converging into a single five-day window that also includes megacap tech earnings and the monthly candle close for Bitcoin on Friday. As The Kobeissi Letter put it, \u201cThis week is going to be action packed\u2026 All while President Trump meets with China\u2019s President Xi on Thursday, 48 hours before his 100% tariff is set to go \u2018live.\u2019 Buckle up for a wild week.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kevin (@Kev_Capital_TA) captured<\/a> the market mood from the risk-asset side: \u201cI am very excited about this week. We have Big Tech earnings, FOMC, Trump\/XI meeting, and a potential end to this annoying government shutdown. If all goes well we can have great earnings with quality guidance, a lower fed funds rate, an end to QT, a solidified trade deal with China, and a reopened government. Sounds good to me. Should be fun to watch.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joe Consorti went further on the crypto read-through: \u201cThis is the week when the cloud of uncertainty that has loomed over Bitcoin may finally lift\u2026 Couple this with investors already moving into risk to juice their returns into year-end, and you\u2019ve got all of the catalysts needed to ideally break BTC out of its 7-month consolidation period.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is the week when the cloud of uncertainty that has loomed over Bitcoin may finally lift.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Trump-Xi trade deal will be reached
\n\u2022 The Fed will likely deliver guidance on the end of QT
\n\u2022 Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft, along with 20% of the S&P 500, will\u2026<\/p>\n

4 Things To Watch This Week As Bitcoin Faces A Critical Test<\/h2>\n

The Federal Reserve sets the tone on Wednesday. The October FOMC meeting runs Tuesday\u2013Wednesday, October 28\u201329, followed by Chair Powell<\/a>\u2019s press conference. Markets will parse the statement and any guidance on the cadence and endpoint of balance-sheet runoff aka end of quantitative tightening (QT) given that growth and labor indicators have softened into the autumn.<\/p>\n

The second pillar is the US\u2013China trade deal<\/a>. Into Thursday\u2019s Trump\u2013Xi meeting in South Korea, both sides have signaled a \u201cframework\u201d to avert the administration\u2019s threatened 100% blanket tariff on Chinese imports. US and Chinese officials spent the weekend crafting a tentative understanding that would extend a tariff truce and revive \u201csubstantial\u201d agricultural purchases, with US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent emerging as the administration\u2019s public point man.<\/p>\n

Comments late Sunday and early Monday described \u201cconsensus on major trade issues\u201d after \u201cfrank and constructive\u201d talks, and framed the leader-level meeting as the venue to finalize the deal architecture. The market-moving toggle is binary: a signed framework that delays or rescinds the 100% tariff slated for November 1, or a breakdown that lets it activate. In the wake of the news, the price of Bitcoin has already risen by over 4%.<\/p>\n

Washington\u2019s third pressure point is the government shutdown<\/a>, which entered its fourth week and approaches Day 27 as of Monday, October 27. The policy relevance for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market is twofold.
\nFirst, prolonged shutdowns have historically delayed data releases and constrained regulatory processes that touch crypto markets at the margin. Second, the fiscal optics matter for the rates complex ahead of Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Layered on top is Big Tech earnings. Alphabet and Microsoft report Wednesday after the bell, with Apple and Amazon following on Thursday, meaning that results and guidance from roughly $15 trillion in market capitalization will be hitting the tape within 36 hours of the FOMC. These releases can drive cross-asset volatility via index moves, dollar sensitivity and broader risk sentiment, and they often spill over to Bitcoin and crypto when positioning is tight.<\/p>\n

All of this lands just as Bitcoin prints its October monthly close on Friday, October 31. Technically, BTC has been compressing, with multiple analysts noting a rare four-month band of monthly opens and closes inside an ~single-digit percentage envelope and repeated tests of the macro range boundaries.<\/p>\n

As Daan Crypto Trades observed<\/a>, \u201cBitcoin\u2019s price has opened & closed within a small 8% price range during the past 4 months. A bigger move is coming at some point.\u201d Rekt Capital framed the current bounce as a \u201cstrong rebound from the Macro Range Low,\u201d while others pointed to the psychology of a whipsawing October: \u201cthis monthly candle has destroyed portfolios, dreams, ambitions, aspirations, and hope\u2014first for bulls, and now for bears\u2026 gross,\u201d wrote @crypthoem.<\/p>\n

\"Bitcoin<\/p>\n

A monthly close above the September close at $114,048 could be a bullish sign after a turbulent October with the most brutal liquidations event in history for the market.<\/p>\n

At press time, BTC traded at $115,336.<\/p>\n
