#数字资产行情上升 ADP employment data for December has just been released—added 41,000 jobs, below the expected 47,000, and the previous month even retreated by 32,000. This indicates that the employment market is indeed slowing down, just not as sharply as everyone thought. From the dollar perspective, this is a mild bearish signal, which actually pushes back expectations of rate cuts. But don’t overlook that ADP is just a warm-up; the real decisive factors are the Non-Farm Payrolls, CPI, and PCE reports.



What’s the rhythm this week? Tonight’s data release is just the appetizer; tomorrow’s data will have at most a moderate impact, and the real show is on Friday—the December US Non-Farm Payrolls report. That’s the key indicator for anchoring the Fed’s January policy expectations. Currently, market sentiment isn’t extremely panicked; the data is somewhat weak but not aggressive. This signals a "steady expectations" stance for rate cuts, making the rebound logic for risk assets and cryptocurrencies quite straightforward.

How to trade? It depends on what type of trader you are. Pure beginners should stick to a long-only strategy, buy on dips, and be sure to control position sizes and set stop-losses—avoid switching directions without reason. Experienced traders with a systematic approach and discipline can engage in long-short strategies, focusing on key breakouts and false breakouts. Enter and exit quickly, and prioritize risk control. For those who don’t want to watch the charts constantly, try placing orders at support and resistance levels—buy at support, sell at resistance—saving effort and reducing emotional bias.

Key upcoming dates: January 9th (Friday) Non-Farm Payrolls, January 13th CPI, and January 27th Fed rate decision. In the medium term, the Fed’s rate cut cycle remains the main driver for crypto assets through 2026, as liquidity easing benefits risk asset pricing. In the short term, it’s a tug-of-war between data and expectations; after each dip, the bias remains bullish. The underlying logic of this rebound for $BTC holds firm; the crucial point is whether the upcoming Non-Farm Payrolls can ultimately confirm this wave of expectations.

Friday's non-farm payrolls are the real test; the previous ones are just small battles.

Another false alarm with ADP? The real test is the non-farm payrolls on Friday, brothers.

It's ADP and non-farm payrolls again, being brainwashed by data all day. Surely they won't manage expectations again on Friday.

Friday is the real test; the ADP data is a bit sluggish and not quite strong enough.

Friday's non-farm payrolls are the real trump card; currently, these data are all fake.
