PancakeSwap (CAKE) Price Analysis: Accumulation Signals Potential Breakout to $26

  1. CAKE is testing major resistance for the third time after a long accumulation phase, increasing breakout pressure.
  2. Prolonged consolidation suggests weaker holders are exiting while stronger participants accumulate near resistance.
  3. A high-volume breakout from this support could confirm a macro trend shift toward $26 and place CAKE among leading altcoins.

PancakeSwap (CAKE) has been consolidating for several years, allowing weaker positions to exit and stronger participants to accumulate. A sustained move with higher volume could trigger a major breakout, signaling a new phase for CAKE and other altcoins.

At the time of writing, CAKE is trading at $1.85, supported by a 24-hour trading volume of $100.7 million and a market capitalization of $623.28 million. Its price has declined by 9.35% over the last 24 hours and 20.98% over the last week.

CAKE Holds Near $1.85 Support Within Long-Term Range

PancakeSwap (CAKE) is still in a wide range on the weekly chart, having failed to overcome the resistance range of $3.30-3.70 previously. This indicates the presence of very strong selling pressure at that level, and a failure to overcome the range of $3.00-$3.20 has now confirmed it as a significant resistance level, but the price is currently trading close to the lower boundary of the long-term range around $1.85, close to the 0-0.382 Fib support line.

Momentum is losing steam with an RSI value below 50, showing bearish dominance but not an oversold market. Above the $1.80-$1.90 levels will carry potential for a pullback to $2.30 and $2.80, while any strong breakthrough will carry risks of reconsolidation and thus render the accumulation scenario invalid.

CAKE Consolidates and Signals Potential Breakout to $26

CAKE, the native token of PancakeSwap, is again under the spotlight as it approaches a crucial level of support for the third time this year. CAKE has been accumulating for almost 3.5 years and has reached the top of its range at the $26 level for the last time this year.

The protracted period of consolidation indicates possible dispersion of weaker positions, providing an opportunity for stronger market participants to accumulate. As the price is pressed close to the zone of resistance, market analysts are keenly observing for any indication of strength, specifically with regard to momentum and volume. The longer CAKE stays in the vicinity of this region with limited strong rejections, the stronger will be the potential for breakout.

A strong breakout at this level of support, especially on increased volumes, would indicate a significant shift in the macro structure of CAKE and would push the token toward $26 again. This could indicate that the altcoin has emerged from its extended range and is about to enter into a new phase, where other altcoins that are displaying initial signs of market shift will also fall into place along with CAKE.

Fed forecasts only one rate cut in 2026, a more conservative outlook than expected

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. Here are the Fed’s latest targets from 19 FOMC members, both voters and nonvoters: Zoom In IconArrows pointing outwards The forecasts, however, showed a large difference of opinion with two voting members seeing as many as four cuts. 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.

Arizona Senator Proposes Exempting Bitcoin and Crypto from Taxes

Understanding the specific tax exemption proposal's scope, mechanics, and limitations provides foundation for evaluating feasibility and implications. The exemption presumably covers capital gains taxes on cryptocurrency appreciation at state level, though personal income tax and corporate tax treatment requires clarification. Scope questions include whether exemption applies to trading profits, mining income, staking rewards, DeFi yields, NFT sales, and business cryptocurrency revenue.
