In the early hours of September 17 Beijing time, the Federal Reserve announced a 25-basis-point rate hike, raising the federal funds target range from 3.50%–3.75% to 3.75%–4.00%, its first rate hike since 2023. The FOMC vote was 12–0.
But what is really worth watching is not this 25 bp.
The dot plot is the main event.
The latest projections show that 16 of the 18 officials expect another rate hike in 2026. At the same time, the Fed expects PCE inflation to be around 3.7% in 2026, significantly above the 2% target; GDP growth is projected at 2.3%, while the unemployment rate is expected to be a

After a gap of more than three years, the Federal Reserve has finally raised interest rates again.
This 25-basis-point hike brings the federal funds target range up to 3.75%-4.00%, marking the first rate hike since July 2023.
However, the hike was largely within market expectations, and after the decision was announced, the market did not see any particularly significant volatility.
The dot plot is still more noteworthy:
The median interest rate projection for 2026 indicates that another rate hike is highly likely within the year. Currently, 16 policymakers expect at least one more rate hike t

#BTCDrops3.3% Deconstructing Bitcoin’s Recent Correction and the Path Forward
The cryptocurrency market is no stranger to volatility. It is a landscape defined by violent upward surges and equally abrupt retracements. In the last 24 hours, the market has once again reminded investors of its inherent unpredictability. Bitcoin, the flagship digital asset, experienced a significant drawdown, shedding 3.3% of its value in a relatively short period. While a 3.3% drop might sound trivial in traditional equity markets, in the world of crypto, it represents a substantial transfer of wealth and a psych

Wow, $ONE surged 28.447% in one day and is now at 0.000885—I'm bullish in the short term, but only recognize a breakout if it holds above 0.000897.

CRCL Recommended by “Scumbag”
The assets recommended by “Scumbag” are all assets he himself would hold. Over the past few days, CRCL quickly pulled back by more than 20% due to the failed vote on the CLARITY Act, compounded by the rate hike. “Scumbag” currently has an initial position of 3 tranches, with an average price around 88.
“Scumbag’s” subsequent add-on levels will be:
76.5, 1 tranche
68.5, 3 tranches
63.5, 3 tranches
10 tranches in total, equivalent to 10% of the total capital.

Only persistence makes it a dream; once you give up, it is merely a delusion.
Endure the days when no one cares, and you will have poetry and distant horizons!

The market doesn’t explain itself; it only moves. Your job is simply not to act recklessly.

When I checked the charts after lunch, $US had strong sell-side pressure and low trading volume, so I advised holding the short position and not making random moves.

0.016767 was pushed all the way down to 0.015732, with the short position up 121.89%. Feels good, brothers. We timed this move right—good enough for a nice meal.

Have a strategy before the session, discipline during the session, and reflection after the session. Even if you only make one point, as long as you take it off the table, i

Trade Plan:
Entry: 1.2827 – 1.2911
SL: 1.3276
TP1: 1.2564
TP2: 1.2360
TP3: 1.2054

Why this setup?
Why now? The 1h price is coiling at 1.2869 inside a tight range, the 15m RSI is 34.83 signaling exhausted buyers, and the 1h ATR of 0.016971 confirms the move is compressing before a snap. The daily trend is range, which means a directional break is overdue and the short bias is set to exploit that exhaustion. Entry sits at 1.2869 with targets at 1.2564 and 1.2360, while 1.3276 acts as the stop that protects against a

To be honest, I’m surprised this trade has survived until now; luck played a considerable part.
A few days ago, as the market bottomed out in the early hours, $DOGE key support held, and the bottom moved sideways without crashing. I said around 0.07003 not to rush and to wait for a pullback to stabilize.
It later gave us the answer, climbing from 0.07003 to 0.08083, with a return of +1431.94%. That was a satisfying bite of profit.
The market is waited out, and profits are held onto. Panic comes from having no plan, and losses come from overthinking.

$BNB BNB IS READY FOR THE NEXT MOVE
$/
Price is testing the upper boundary of its recent range after breaking above a multi-week descending trendline.
This setup looks familiar, the same trendline break and range squeeze that showed up right before the last leg higher.
Buyers stepped in from the 710-720 support zone, holding structure despite repeated retests.
If the pattern plays out again, a clean push through resistance near 740 could open the door for continuation toward new highs.

The AI industry continues to attract enormous amounts of capital, and OpenAI is once again at the center of the conversation.
According to reports, OpenAI has held early discussions with major investors about a potential new funding round that could value the company at around $1.2 trillion ahead of a future IPO. The discussions are reportedly still at an early stage, meaning the final valuation and terms could change.
If completed at that level, the valuation would represent a major increase from OpenAI’s reported $852 b
