JPMorgan Bitcoin Outlook Warns Of Oversold BTC Futures

JPMorgan says Bitcoin futures are now oversold. At the same time, gold and silver futures seem to be overbought. The bank shared this view in a new market note released in late January.

According to JPMorgan’s Bitcoin outlook, investors have slowly moved money away from Bitcoin. Moving the funds towards gold and silver instead. This trend has been seen since August last year and because of this, market positions across assets now look very different.

Bitcoin Futures Show Signs of Weak Sentiment

Bitcoin futures have dropped a lot in recent months. JPMorgan notes that the relative strength index, or RSI, for Bitcoin futures fell to 22.4. So this level usually is a sign of being oversold.

In addition, open interest in Bitcoin futures has also fallen by around 15% since the fourth quarter of 2025. This drop shows that many traders closed their positions, but this also shows that selling pressure may be slowing down. Because of that, some analysts believe that Bitcoin could be getting close to a short-term bottom.

Gold and Silver Attract Strong Investor Demand

On the other hand, gold and silver have seen a lot of inflows. Investors poured about $8.7 billion into gold ETFs and for silver ETFs also around $2.3 billion. These strong inflows pushed futures prices even more, so as a result, JPMorgan now sees both metals as overbought.

Central bank gold buying has also played a key role. Many countries continue to add gold to their reserves. This trend supports higher prices and stronger demand.

Why Investors Are Rotating Away From Bitcoin

A lot of macro factors can explain why this change happened. First, global economic uncertainty is still high, and second, interest rate expectations keep on changing. Due to this, a lot of investors prefer assets they see as safer, mostly like gold or silver that have a good reputation everywhere. 

Still, JPMorgan does not dismiss Bitcoin’s role. The bank notes that Bitcoin is still seen to be a good alternative in times of liquidity stress.

Market Reactions Point to a Possible Bitcoin Rebound

Early reactions on social media suggest mixed views. Some traders see Bitcoin’s oversold level as a buying opportunity, while others are still cautious due to weak momentum. Moreover, silver also faces risks because prices have gone up to almost 40% since October. This sudden climb makes the chance of a pullback more.

Overall, JPMorgan’s Bitcoin outlook shows a clear shift in market behavior. While precious metals lead in the short term, Bitcoin may soon regain attention if sentiment turns.

The post Fed forecasts only one rate cut in 2026, a more conservative outlook than expected appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell talks to reporters following the regular Federal Open Market Committee meetings at the Fed on July 30, 2025 in Washington, DC. Chip Somodevilla | Getty Images The Federal Reserve is projecting only one rate cut in 2026, fewer than expected, according to its median projection. The central bank’s so-called dot plot, which shows 19 individual members’ expectations anonymously, indicated a median estimate of 3.4% for the federal funds rate at the end of 2026. That compares to a median estimate of 3.6% for the end of this year following two expected cuts on top of Wednesday’s reduction. A single quarter-point reduction next year is significantly more conservative than current market pricing. Traders are currently pricing in at two to three more rate cuts next year, according to the CME Group’s FedWatch tool, updated shortly after the decision. The gauge uses prices on 30-day fed funds futures contracts to determine market-implied odds for rate moves.

Three officials penciled in three rate reductions next year. “Next year’s dot plot is a mosaic of different perspectives and is an accurate reflection of a confusing economic outlook, muddied by labor supply shifts, data measurement concerns, and government policy upheaval and uncertainty,” said Seema Shah, chief global strategist at Principal Asset Management. The central bank has two policy meetings left for the year, one in October and one in December. Economic projections from the Fed saw slightly faster economic growth in 2026 than was projected in June, while the outlook for inflation was updated modestly higher for next year.
