Hot CPI, Uncertain Markets: Why I’m Not Rushing to Buy the Dip
The September CPI report has given traders another reason to think carefully before making their next move. What caught my attention is not just that inflation came in above expectations, but what it could mean for interest rates, market liquidity and investor confidence over the coming weeks. When everyone is hoping for easier monetary policy, even a small surprise in the wrong direction can change the entire mood of the market.
U.S. headline CPI rose to 3.7% year over year from 3.4% in August, while

Gold on 10/15:
On the daily chart, the price stabilized around the low of 4066. The current price is between the lower and middle Bollinger Bands, consolidating sideways at low levels, with resistance from the middle Bollinger Band above.
The three KDJ lines are turning upward and are about to form a golden cross, indicating short-term recovery momentum, but key resistance has not yet been broken, and the larger-cycle downtrend structure remains unchanged.
Trading advice:
Short from 4170-4150, target 4030-4000, stop-loss at 4180

I’m going to sleep. Even the Korean index next door has dropped so hard that it practically crapped itself. Honestly, looking at it this way, we’ve already performed very well... really well... Compared with the brutal sell-off a few days ago, this has been very gentle. The Korean index triggered a circuit breaker and fell as much as 7%, while we’ve only dropped a few hundred points.

Entry conditions: A rebound rises back to the 2440-2460 range, the 1-hour candlestick spikes and closes with a long upper shadow, and rebound volume gradually declines. Enter a short position after a confirmed failure to advance.

Still rich, huh? This dumb thing managed to auction for 0.005 BTC, over $400.
They auctioned 88 of them, so doesn’t that mean they raked in 0.44 BTC, equal to over $30,000?
Congratulations to these 88 suckers.
The floor price is 0.00288 BTC, and it fell below the issue price immediately upon launch.
I suspect most of these 88 were bought by the project team themselves to drive up the price.

The weakness will continue! Short directly in the early session!
Overnight, the US September CPI came in at 3.7%, above market expectations, while core CPI rose 0.3% month-on-month, higher than the market expectation of 0.2%.
After the data was released, market expectations for a Fed rate hike in October rose to 33%. Gold plunged to 4,100, while BTC and ETH both tumbled. Shorting all the way from 84,000 recently has also captured the downside!
Meanwhile, several Fed officials spoke out, and hawkish rhetoric spread across the market. Trump also joined the fray, saying that the Fed was deliberat
