#8月核心CPI超预期 A brief look at next week’s market trend!
Liquidity was very poor this weekend, but for the bears, it provided greater confidence in a bearish outlook. Compared with the rebounds seen over the previous two weekends despite the bearish factors from Waller and the nonfarm payrolls report, this weekend was relatively weak, with extremely strong bearish sentiment.
After CPI, we will focus on two key points next week: the CLARITY Act and the Fed decision.
1. Current mainstream market expectations are largely leaning toward a delay, with a relatively low probability of the bill passing.

BTC’s correction is complete; going long. Currently livestreaming.

#AugustCoreCPIBeatsExpectations
The August CPI report landed with a mixed but clearly firmer tone on the monthly core reading. Core CPI rose 0.3 percent month-over-month, above the 0.2 percent estimate and the strongest monthly print since May. The year-over-year core rate cooled to 2.4 percent, matching expectations and marking a third consecutive month of decline. Headline CPI rose 0.4 percent on the month and held at 3.4 percent year-over-year, both in line with forecasts.
Energy was the main driver of the headline number, with gasoline contributing a large share of the monthly gain. Core

Nice Sunday pullback into local support.
Polymarket is now pricing an 80% probability of a 25bps rate hike, adding another layer of uncertainty heading into the week.
It should be an interesting week, with plenty of potential dip-buying opportunities provided our bottom thesis remains intact and key invalidation levels continue to hold.

🚨 CRYPTO IS QUIET… BUT FOR HOW LONG?
Today's trading activity looks unusually slow, with volume remaining subdued across the crypto market.
Liquid staking pools are also showing signs of reduced activity, reinforcing the feeling that traders are sitting on the sidelines.
But this kind of calm can be significant.
Because the market is heading into a week filled with potential catalysts. 👀
⚡ CLARITY ACT VOTE
The upcoming vote could become an important regulatory moment for the U.S. crypto industry and potentially influence market sentiment.

The Fed's decision and forward g

BTC fluctuated narrowly within the 77300-76900 range intraday. The market appeared calm, but bullish momentum continued to fade. The broader bearish structure remains unchanged, with clear pressure from the moving averages and rebound highs gradually moving lower, forming a typical weak consolidation pattern. In terms of fund flows, net inflows stood at -$180 million, with major funds continuing to exit and buying support remaining weak.
The 77500 level above is acting as strong short-term resistance. Multiple tests have failed to break through, indicating that the bulls lack the strength to m

TAO is range-bound, but this 15m RSI whispers a different story.

$TAO /USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 232.2 – 233.4
SL: 238.2
TP1: 228.7
TP2: 226.0
TP3: 222.0

Why this setup?
Why now? The daily trend is range, but the 1h price is sitting at 232.8 with a 15m RSI of 30.79, signaling a sudden exhaustion in buying pressure. The 1h ATR of 2.253326 shows the volatility is compressed just before a potential explosive move. We are targeting a short entry at the 232.8 reference, with the first target at 228.7 and a deeper objective at 226.0. The line in the sand is the invalidation level at 244.

No vision, can’t hold on—the profits on this move are paper-thin, but I love it to death.

When the market was grinding out a bottom intraday, I said that blindly chasing longs was the easiest way to end up doing pointless work. $HEMI It pushed toward the highs several times in a row but failed to hold, with volume shrinking each time and the buying support visibly weakening. It was clearly a bull-trap script, yet some people insisted it was the prelude to a breakout. I couldn’t be bothered to argue and directly placed a short order at 0.008967. I just took a glance, and the price has already

$LAB /USDT is quietly building a bearish setup that most traders are still ignoring.

$LAB /USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 0.06607 – 0.06805
SL: 0.07656
TP1: 0.05994
TP2: 0.05519
TP3: 0.04806

Why this setup?
Why now? The daily trend has been bearish for a while, and the 1h RSI at 45.88 shows weakening momentum without yet hitting oversold, which favors continuation downward. The 1h ATR of 0.003958 tells us volatility is compressed enough that a decisive move can quickly sweep the entry zone of 0.06706, where the 1h price sits. The plan targets TP1 at 0.05994 and TP2 at 0.05519, while the

I just hit refresh, and it shot up as if I had scared it. The direction is down, and I’m holding a short.
After lunch, when I checked the chart, $AAOI ’s rebound lacked strength; there was no one to take it higher, and buying support was insufficient. I signaled bullish, but was biased short at the highs.
From 152.22 all the way to 101.87, +1592.92% secured—feels great, enough for a good meal.
I’ll close 80% first and protect the cost basis on the remaining position at +1592.20%. Don’t let a rebound make the profits uncomfortable; if it keeps falling, let the profits run.

I've been watching BTC at 77.1k for half the day, so let's talk about something beyond the chart. This just-closed candle went nowhere, with a 0.07% range—waiting for direction. It's down 0.20% over 24 hours, still 0.52% below today's high of 77.5k and only 0.09% above the low of 77k. I don't pay much attention to indicators; looking at this kind of chart too much makes it easy to read too much into it. To the upside, I'm watching 77.2k first, and we'll talk after it gets there. If this keeps grinding, the first thing to lose patience definitely won't be the market—it'll be people's hand

I originally wanted to cut my losses as a sacrifice to the heavens, but the ritual never happened—the meat roasted itself. This is none other than the $TRUMP short position I opened a few days ago.

While everyone was still waiting on the sidelines, I had already entered around 2.369. Why rush? Because before the market had fully started moving, I saw clear resistance above, with each wave of selling pressure heavier than the last, and the rebounds unable to hold at all. If this structure doesn’t call for a short, should I wait for it to come down before buying in?
