Donald Trump has harshly criticized the latest report from Jerome Powell and the Federal Reserve's decision to keep interest rates between 4.25% and 4.5%. According to Trump, Powell is a "real dummy" or "stupid person," blaming him for the economy losing "billions" for not lowering interest rates. On Truth Social, he also blames him for "costing a fortune to our nation" and even speculated about the idea of self-appointing to lead the Fed. Furthermore, he demands drastic cuts of up to two percentage points, negatively comparing it to Europe's monetary policy. Thus, Trump intensifies political pressure, emphasizing that he will not renew Powell when his term ends in May 2026.
The Fed kept the interest rate between 4.25%–4.50%, and Powell warned that inflation remains "significant", partly attributable to tariffs and geopolitical tensions. In light of the slow progression towards the 2% target, he projects two rate cuts this year, possibly starting in September, although seven out of 19 members prefer not to lower. Moderate economic growth is expected (~1.4%), rising unemployment (~4.5%) and inflation close to 3% by the end of the year. He reiterated the Fed's independence from political pressures, anticipating "prudent and data-dependent" decisions for now. #PowellRemarks #Fed #BTC #ETH #xrp
My approach on Binance is Swing Trading with active risk management.
Timeframe: I mainly operate on 4H and Daily charts, looking for sustained intermediate trends while avoiding intraday noise.
Selection: I prioritize BTC, ETH, and high-cap altcoins with solid fundamentals and high liquidity, confirming entries with volume and clear support/resistance levels.
Risk Management: It's key. I never risk more than 1-2% of capital per trade. I use strict stop-losses and trailing stops to protect profits. I diversify among a maximum of 3-5 assets.
Psychology: I maintain emotional discipline. I accept losses as part of the game and let profits run according to technical analysis.
Binance Tools: I use limit orders, OCO (One-Cancels-the-Other), and integrated TradingView analysis.
My goal: Consistency over explosive gains, capitalizing on predictable market movements with controlled risk.
