Before the PPI release, what the market fears most isn't the data—it's your imagination!

The U.S. October PPI is due out tonight at 21:30.
The data isn't even out yet, and the market is already embroiled in a psychological battle.
Bulls think inflation is cooling and prices may continue to rise; bears believe the data could be mixed and are ready to look for a chance to buy the dip. And ordinary investors? They’re scrolling through the news and refreshing the market, wishing they could know the answer in advance.
Actually, the most dangerous thing to do before the data comes out is write your own script for the market.
If PPI comes in a little high, you imagine the market crashing; if it comes in a little low, you start fantasizing about a straight rally. Then the data comes out, and the market plays out a third scenario instead.
So this weekend, I’m planning to focus on three signals: the gap between the data and expectations, changes in interest rate expectations, and the actual price reaction in related assets.
No need to rush to guess the direction or trade just for the excitement.
After all, the market offers opportunities every day, but your account can’t handle getting carried away every day.#周末话题 #Trading Journal
