Powell speaks late at night! The cryptocurrency market faces a life-or-death situation tonight; should retail investors stay put or run away?
Everyone, quickly refill your coffee and prepare instant noodles! Tonight in the cryptocurrency market is akin to "staying up late to binge-watch a major annual drama" — the Federal Reserve spokesperson Powell is about to give a public speech. This is not just casual chit-chat; it directly sets the tone for global assets: will it be "easing" to let the cryptocurrency market sip some soup, or "tightening" to rub the market down to the ground?
Honestly, Powell's words are more valuable than exchange pop-ups! If he hints that "interest rate cuts are not far away," the cryptocurrency market will surely react as if it has been injected with adrenaline; BTC might even turn into a "firecracker" and surge. But if he firmly states, "no interest rate cuts for now," those brothers heavily leveraged may witness the market "falling flat," and support levels could be broken.
Don’t think the big drop in the cryptocurrency market last Friday was caused by tariffs; the Santimon data clarified early on: it was fundamentally because everyone was too heavily leveraged, and long positions were crammed like a rush hour subway. A slight disturbance, and everyone collectively faced liquidation — what a heartbreaking scene for anyone watching!
In tonight's life-or-death situation, retail investors really don’t need to panic. Remember the two steps to stay safe:
1. Prepare your all-nighter gear (instant noodles and coffee are both essential), and keep a close eye on the U.S. stock market after the speech — the cryptocurrency market is usually a step behind but will generally follow the U.S. stock market's "homework"; if the U.S. stock market stabilizes, the cryptocurrency market is likely to remain calm;
2. Absolutely do not recklessly increase leverage! The more critical the period, the more you need to "hold on tight." Last month, a big shot did just that: quietly accumulated ETH before the interest rate cut expectations, and after the news dropped, made a crazy 30% profit in a week. The secret is just two words: don’t go all in!
Finally, a key point: After Powell finishes speaking, I’ll be the first to dig up the "bottom-buying code" and "running signals" in the community and share my operation strategies. Whether to follow the rhythm is entirely up to you, but the market doesn’t wait for anyone — if you miss tonight's crucial moment, waiting for the next opportunity might have you slapping your thigh and shouting "I knew it!" $BTC
