$BR This wick was beautifully drawn by the market maker. After sweeping 0.3541, it shot straight back to 0.4684. A 22.68% 24-hour range and 112.5M in trading volume: retail investors see a massive surge; I see a script.
Let’s run through the market maker’s playbook: place fake buy orders around 0.35 to prop up the market and get panic sellers to capitulate, then use wash trading to pump volume and push past 0.45, triggering short stop-losses, before using the 22% gain to stoke FOMO. The 24-hour high of 0.5370 is a test level. There isn’t much overhead supply, but the 0.50–0.53 range is crowded

Gate BTC and ETH Futures Trading Volume: Can the Momentum Continue?
In my view, the momentum Gate is seeing in the derivatives market could persist; however, sustainable growth depends on whether this increased trading activity is driven by lasting demand rather than mere short-term speculation.
The reported figures are encouraging: with BTC and ETH in an uptrend, Gate ranks among the top three exchanges globally for futures trading volume in both assets, with BTC futures volume reaching approximately $7.18 billion over a 24-hour period.
Nevertheless, high

KOSPI Rebounds After a 7.6% Crash: Is the Semiconductor Sell-Off Over, or Is More Volatility Ahead?
The Asian stock market experienced a dramatic shift on October 15–16, 2026, as semiconductor stocks came under heavy selling pressure before staging a partial recovery. South Korea’s KOSPI index suffered a sharp 7.6% decline on October 15, dropping to 5,554 points and triggering a circuit breaker. The index touched its lowest level since April, highlighting how quickly market sentiment can change when inflation concerns, interest-rate expectations, and uncertainty s

PPI rises 6.3% year over year, highest since 2022; energy is “eating” the entire economy
Yesterday, when the PPI data came out, I was looking at Gate’s candlestick chart. The moment the numbers appeared, my first thought was, “I must be reading that wrong.”
September PPI rose 6.3% year over year, versus expectations of 5.4% and a previous reading of 5.4%. It rose 1.3% month over month, versus expectations of 0.6% and a previous reading of 0.4%. Core PPI rose 5.0% year over year, versus expectations of 4.4%. Core PPI rose 0.7% month over month, versus expectations of 0.3%. All figures significa

What Warsh Said—and Didn’t Say: Reading Between the Lines of His IMF Fireside Chat
At 11:30 this morning, Fed Chair Warsh had a fireside chat with IMF Managing Director Georgieva at the IMF annual meeting in Bangkok. I watched the livestream from start to finish, looking for clues in his wording about an October rate hike. In the end, he said almost nothing.
Warsh’s exact words were: “I don’t prejudge the decision at any meeting. I don’t think it’s appropriate to preview what actions I might take at the remaining meetings this year.” He only made one remark while looking back at September’s ra

A few days ago, I strongly urged a friend
to bet on AVA, and it has doubled now
You ask me why my bets are so accurate
It’s all insider information🤓
Some people pick coins by looking at altcoin holdings/market cap
and trading volume
Actually, this is not much different from guessing high or low
These are all metrics that market makers can easily inflate, at a very low cost

$BR Long setup... Buyers are back in force!
BR is currently trading around 0.453 after a sharp rebound. Buyers are trying to hold above the 0.44 support zone, creating the potential for further upside. Entry: 0.445–0.455 (long) Take-profit 1: 0.475 Take-profit 2: 0.495 Final target: 0.530 Stop-loss: 0.425 As long as BR holds above 0.44, the rebound could continue. A break above 0.475 could further strengthen momentum, pushing the price toward 0.50 and higher. Watch support closely and manage risk. $BR

This chart pattern suggests a potential correction toward the 65,000–69,000 range, as it appears to be completing a 5-wave sequence. However, this chart setup could be deceptive; it is possible that the current structure is actually forming a 12345 sequence within a larger wave 3. This is why the price is currently stalling in this area, without yet establishing a clear direction. $BTC ‌

$SNDK SHORT SETUP — SELLERS IN CONTROL! 📉**
Entry: 1265 – 1280 (Short)
SL: 1308
TP1: 1240
TP2: 1215
TP3: 1185
$SNDK has broken below its consolidation zone, with strong selling pressure. The current bounce looks weak.
As long as 1308 holds, further downside remains possible.
**Wait for a bearish rejection before entry.**

Saturday strategy: BTC long at 81000, in profit; zec long at 1120, in profit; ETH long at 2373, added to the position at 2353, in profit

Most people are focused on a tariff breakthrough. I think the market will drop first. The court has ruled, but the tariff agenda isn’t dead—it’s just lost its easiest path. After doing this for so long, I know position sizing is always more important than calling direction. Let’s compare notes this weekend.
