Market participants have even begun pricing in the possibility of another rate increase, with current expectations implying a 30% probability of a hike at an upcoming policy meeting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Risk appetite weakened further as the Crypto Fear &amp; Greed Index fell to 15 on Thursday from 22 a day earlier, keeping the market firmly in the \u201cExtreme Fear\u201d zone. The decline highlights growing investor caution and reduced exposure to risk assets.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Monero price outlook: Correction continues below key resistance levels<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Monero remains trapped below the Bollinger Bands middle line near $340 and all major Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 50-day EMA sits around $359, while the 100-day and 200-day EMAs cluster near $366, creating a significant resistance zone overhead.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the ongoing correction, technical indicators show signs of improving momentum.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram remains positive, while the Money Flow Index (MFI) near 65 suggests steady capital inflows.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, these signals currently point to corrective rebounds rather than a broader trend reversal as long as XMR remains beneath key resistance levels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Immediate resistance is located around the Bollinger Bands\u2019 middle line at $340, followed by the 50-day EMA near $359.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A stronger resistance zone emerges around $367, where the 100-day and 200-day EMAs converge. Beyond that, the upper Bollinger Band near $389 represents the next major hurdle for buyers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the downside, support is found near the lower Bollinger Band at approximately $291. A breakdown below this level could accelerate losses and trigger a deeper retracement despite the recent improvement in momentum indicators.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-365388\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/XMRUSD_2026-06-19_12-00-40.png\" alt=\"XMR\/USD 4H Chart\" width=\"1793\" height=\"836\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Monero remains vulnerable to further downside as macroeconomic uncertainty and restrictive monetary policy continue to weigh on investor sentiment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While technical indicators suggest some underlying buying interest, the privacy coins must reclaim key resistance levels before a more sustained recovery can take shape.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Analysis,Monero News,XMR#Monero #extends #losses #Fed #hawkishness #weighs #crypto #market1781873663<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key takeaways XMR is down 2% and could record further losses in the near term The Fed\u2019s hawkishness weighs on the broader crypto market.
