ZEC Strategy
The market is currently range-bound.
If the price drops to 1151-1155 and holds, you can try a small long position.
If it breaks below this level, the price will continue to fall, so just follow the trend and go short.
If the price rebounds to 1175-1182 but fails to break through resistance, take a short-term short.
Once it breaks through resistance on increased volume and holds above it, follow the trend and look to go long.
If neither level breaks, trade back and forth within the range. Follow whichever direction breaks out, and make sure to set a strict stop-loss.

Why, with CPI so high, will the Federal Reserve not raise interest rates in October?
The U.S. Treasury Department released its fiscal year 2026 report, showing that total interest expenses on U.S. Treasury debt for the year reached as high as $1.36 trillion, up 12% from the previous fiscal year.
If rates continue to rise, interest rates on U.S. Treasury debt will also increase, putting greater pressure on the U.S. government's interest payments.
Although the Federal Reserve is independent, it cannot completely ignore the risks associated with U.S. Treasury debt.

$AR is coiling in a 4h falling wedge near the apex.
Price is ~3.86, sitting on the 200 EMA. The long is a high-volume break of the upper line and the 55/100 EMAs at $4.00–$4.06. That opens $5.00+.
A 4h close under the lower wedge line kills it.

I feel AGT and VVV are very similar. Over the past year, both have risen dozens of times from their lows, maintaining a long-term upward, choppy trend. Most importantly, many people have no idea why they’ve risen so much… until I saw Grayscale shilling VVV, and it suddenly dawned on me. I think AGT is much like VVV, with a powerful market player like Grayscale behind it. They both want to package these worthless altcoins as value coins through their token prices and upward momentum. $AG $VVV

Guys, when the perp spread widens, don’t just blame high volatility—it’s usually MM pulling liquidity from the top few levels.
After anonymizing and adjusting inventory + cancellation cadence, the spread median converges at the same vol (see chart).
Whether the top few levels can actually fill matters more than the narrative. What’s your spread alert threshold? 10/17
