Nonfarm payrolls far exceeded expectations, with the market pricing in a more than 60% probability of a 25-basis-point Fed rate hike in September.
The “good news” from the nonfarm payrolls data is once again bad news for the stock and crypto markets.

Decision time for $BTC soon.
Still at major resistance, a market structure break within arm's reach.
Clear the previous highs, and high-timeframe structure flips bullish, well ahead of the usual schedule.
Eyes on the weekly close.

I just went downstairs to replace the pair of bulbs on my old Tiida. These were the same bulbs that came with the car when I bought it. After 12 years, the halogen bulbs had become so dim that they were practically no different from candles···
More than a decade ago, because H4 headlights combined the high and low beams and used larger reflector bowls, changing the bulbs without installing projector lenses would cause light scatter regardless of which bulbs you used. Increasing the brightness would make the scattering even worse. Installing projector lenses meant taking apart the headlights,

A few days ago, I was still calculating whether I had enough money for instant noodles this month. This morning, I was already wondering whether to add sausage. The last thing I saw before bed was $SKR hovering at 0.012992; when I woke up, it had already jumped to 0.020644, with +1163.58% secured. This bag of profit feels great 😄

Looking back at the entry logic: the pullback held, the key level wasn’t broken, and there was support at the bottom, so I judged that it wouldn’t go lower in the short term. When the volume came in during the early morning move, I went straight in long. Nothing so

Ohh, they about to suck the living hell out that liquidity

$TROLL

we got 30 coins holding above 20M mcap in 2 weeks
yet people will say it’s “insiders”

Is this really a rebound? It’s more like CPR for my empty account, isn’t it?

A few days ago, one afternoon, the market action was painfully slow. While everyone was still watching from the sidelines, I had already spotted the selling pressure above it. Every time it pushed toward a key level, trading volume shrank. The overhead resistance was too obvious, and with volume failing to follow, it was clear that someone was using the rebound to unload. I decisively took a bullish view around 0.7915 and opened a short position. I wasn’t expecting to get rich in one go—I just waited for it to run o

【$XMR Signal】Multi-timeframe resonance on the upside, targeting the acceleration phase
$XMR 1H has continuously expanded volume and broken above the upper Bollinger Band, while the MACD fast line has expanded for a second time and the 4H bullish alignment remains intact. Buy-side bids in the order book are sparse, sell-order absorption is weak, and the price is still being firmly supported by capital in the upper range.

#BTC Is Back Above $80,000
This move is getting interesting:
Fed Governor Waller sent a dovish signal, Treasury yields pulled back, risk assets rebounded across the board, BTC briefly surged to around $82,000, and ETH reclaimed $2,500
But I’m not going to rush to call it a bull market just yet
Because around $82,000 is also a key resistance level from earlier
Now it comes down to two scenarios👇
🟢 Break above $82,000 on strong volume and hold
→ The rebound develops into a trend move
→ Targets: $85,000 and $90,000
→ Once BTC stabilizes, capital may continue flowing into ETH, SOL, and altcoins

Buy and it drops, sell and it rises? So this is the crypto market’s universal script
Was your first trade on Gate the key to wealth—or just an expensive lesson?
If veteran traders were asked to recall their first trade, I imagine the answers would be fascinating.
Some bought BTC, some bought ETH, while others jumped into a coin that is now nearly impossible to find.
The logic at the time may have been just one sentence:
“It’s been pumping pretty hard lately.”
And then they bought in.
The next second, the market started teaching you a lesson.
Up 5%, you think you’re a trader chosen by fate; dow

Many people struggle with whether to trade spot or futures in crypto. Here are my thoughts.
The two are not mutually exclusive; both can be considered, but the choice should depend on your circumstances. The principal of the vast majority of retail traders in crypto is under 100,000 U, while participants with millions in capital are few and far between, and those with more than 5 million are even rarer. Different capital sizes call for completely different trading approaches.
For traders with more than a million in capital, trading spot is more like planting a tree: the goal is not to get rich

No vision, can’t hold on—the profit on this move is as thin as paper, but I’m loving it. I was watching when the dump started in the early session; the rebound had zero strength, and buying support was a complete mess. This kind of rebound is basically handing me money. 🙏
$SPACE was shorted from 0.007043, now at 0.005063, with +552.42% secured. It was truly sluggish at first, but once it broke out, it felt amazing.
First close 70%—those who understand, understand. Only realized profits are truly yours. Execute the stop-loss on the remaining 20% as planned; if it keeps falling, let the profits

So slow. What are they reviewing?
I remember it used to be approved instantly 🫪

【$LTC Signal】Long + low-volume 1H convergence, 4H bullish structure intact
$LTC The 1H range has converged to an extremely narrow level, with the latest 1H volume at just 2422 coins, while the buy-sell ratio jumped to 0.72. The 4H MACD histogram is +0.146 but narrowing, and the Bollinger Bands are tightening in tandem, with price still clinging between EMA20 and EMA50. Order book depth imbalance is -2.76%, indicating that selling pressure remains, but OI is stable and the funding rate is 0.0069%, keeping the long position cost low.
RSI is 54.36 on the 1H and 62.36 on the 4H, with no overbought

🚨 Bitcoin ETFs just saw their biggest inflow in nearly 8 months.
U.S. spot #Bitcoin ETFs recorded +$730.8M in net inflows yesterday — the largest single-day inflow since January 14, when flows reached $840.6M.
bitcoin:native is now trading around $81k

July’s ballooning U.S. trade deficit (widest since March 2025) was driven primarily by a surge in imports of capital goods, a category which houses AI-related products such as computers, computer accessories and semiconductors … 11.4% m/m jump was largest increase since 1993

Of the ~105K BTC equivalent net capital inflow over the past month, US spot ETFs contributed ~42.8K BTC in net flows, equivalent 41% of that amount.

They wouldn’t make fun of me if I went somewhere else, would they?🙄
