Gu Jingci: The interest rate decision has been implemented, and the trend is gradually becoming clearer
Bitcoin/Ethereum: I repeatedly reminded everyone to enter short positions and add to short positions at the previous highs, then after the dips in the early hours of yesterday and the day before, I twice reminded everyone to watch for a rebound and rally on the pullback. The overall trend control has been clear to see, and I believe those who followed have made decent gains. In the current market, many people dare neither to go long nor short, and even keep stopping out back and forth and tr

#16FedOfficialsExpectAnotherHikeThisYear Fed Signals Another Rate Hike This Year
The Federal Reserve has delivered a 25-basis-point rate hike, raising the federal funds target range to 3.75%–4.00%. More importantly, the latest projections show that 16 of 18 Fed officials expect at least one more rate increase before the end of 2026.
This signals that policymakers remain concerned about persistent inflation. The Fed’s 2026 inflation forecast was also raised to 3.7%, compared with 3.6% previously, while officials expect inflation to return to the 2% target only later.
For financial markets, a

#DXY has moved higher following the Fed’s hawkish message, and the technical structure suggests it may have further to run.
I interpret continued dollar strength as a negative bias for #BTC, #Crypto and risk assets, at least until the dollar begins to reverse lower.
The projected E-wave remains a scenario, not yet a confirmed target.

Fed Chair Warsh made a subtle statement after the rate hike: Trump was “half right” about the economy.
He acknowledged some aspects of the economy under Trump, but completely ignored calls for rate cuts—the decision to raise rates was unanimously approved.
This approach of “acknowledging half and rejecting half” is essentially about preserving the central bank’s independence: neither directly confronting the White House nor allowing political pressure to enter interest-rate decisions. For the market, don’t expect a policy shift in the short term.

Guys, when the spread widens on a perp project, don’t just say “high volatility”—several times, it was the MM pulling quotes from the top few levels.
After adjusting the project’s inventory cap and cancellation cadence (sanitized), the spread median converged significantly under the same vol. The before-and-after comparison is here.
No matter how loud the paper narrative is, what matters is whether the top few levels can actually execute. (9/17)

$ZEC Up 16% in 24 hours, with the current price at 1355 and trading volume at $4.3 billion—the last time we saw this level of volume was at the 2021 bull market peak. Comparing the three previous halving cycles: the main rally began in the eighth month after the 2016 halving and the seventh month after the 2020 halving; this time, unusual activity has already begun in the sixth month, indicating an accelerating pace. The pattern is that an acceleration phase inevitably occurs 6–9 months after the halving, and we are right in that window. Trading plan: cautiously open a long position at the cur

Insiders are quietly stacking shorts on SYMBOL while the 1h price sits just above 99.

Why this setup?
Why now? The 1h price is pinned at 99.48 inside a tight range, the 15m RSI has cratered to 26.21, and the 1h ATR is compressing to 0.677965, which together signal exhaustion. The entry zone between 99.29 and 99.63 aligns perfectly with the daily range, giving a clean trigger. The first target sits at 98.24, with a deeper move to 97.43 waiting if momentum breaks.

Why Oil Just Gave Back Days of Gains, and Why That Doesn't Mean the Story Is Over
Brent crude settled at 105.83 dollars per barrel on September 17, down 2.69 percent, while WTI dropped over 3 percent, trading around the 100 to 101 range. After a stretch of sharp gains driven by Middle East supply fears, this pullback is worth understanding properly, because the reasons behind it matter more than the percentage drop itself.
