Tonight Powell has the speech and the market is buzzing. Time: 7:30 PM - all eyes will be on what he says about interest rates. I've seen days like this before, when Powell's speech moves everything within minutes. Volatility will be high, get ready.
The strategy is simple: don't panic. If the market goes up, lock in profits quickly instead of waiting further. If it drops, don't chase immediately. These are the hours when BTC and ETH move more than you think.
I've noticed that before every important Fed announcement, traders start positioning themselves hours in advance. Today will be no different. The key is risk management - small positions, ready stop-losses, a cool head. After Powell's speech, more opportunities will come; this isn't the only chance of the week.
Stay focused on the data, not on emotions. When Powell speaks at this hour, the market reacts decisively. Prepare for sharp movements, both upward and downward.
