Next week will see the release of key macro indicators such as PCE inflation data, which may serve as a catalyst to break the current stalemate.
If the data reinforces interest rate cut expectations, it could stimulate a rebound in risk assets; if it indicates an overheating economy, the narrative of maintaining high interest rates for longer will suppress the market.
Currently, BTC is fluctuating in the 94,000-95,000 range, with resistance forming at 96,400/97,500 above and support at 93,100-94,300 below; mainstream altcoins like ETH and SOL are also entering a wait-and-see state following the overall market.
Survival strategies for ordinary investors
Abandon the 'carving a boat to seek a sword' mentality: The model of becoming rich by holding altcoins in 2021 is extremely dangerous in the current environment, as the high interest rate environment will continue to drain market liquidity.
Event-driven trading: Before and after key macro data/policy nodes, look for volatility opportunities in BTC, and then use the 'BTC trend - altcoin lagging reaction' transmission chain to capture the catch-up rally.
The art of position management: Within the 94,000-96,000 fluctuation range, accumulate positions gradually near support levels, and be wary of false breakouts when breaking through resistance levels; if there are existing profits in positions, taking moderate profits before major events is often more rational than gambling.
The market is currently in a 'silent period', but this is precisely the best window to observe the intentions of funds — when most people hesitate, real shifts are often brewing.
Remember: during tightening cycles, surviving is more important than making quick profits.
