After the rate hike, crypto-linked U.S. stocks got hit first: Circle fell about 6.8%, HOOD about 5.7%, and COIN about 4.5%.
The Dow also plunged over 1% on the day, with risk appetite cutting high-beta assets first. Crypto prices did not collapse on the spot, but leverage on the U.S. stock side loosened first.
Simply put: this looks like cutting stock positions first, then deciding whether to cut crypto positions.
I think the main theme this round is a double hit to valuations from “regulatory expectations falling short + rate hikes,” not a one-sided blowup.
I’m not adding to the rebound in cr

After $PONS surged to 0.6254, I instead took profit on 70% first. It’s not that I’m bearish, but this level is right around the prior high, a key resistance area, making the risk/reward of chasing lower. The move up from 0.6155 formed a breakout-pullback-breakout structure, with each pullback holding at a higher key level and volume expanding on the breakout.

The key levels are clear now: the prior high is the first key level. After a breakout, only a low-volume pullback that holds the upper boundary would create a new entry setup; if it merely breaks upward and then falls back, it could be

Tong Ge’s 9.17 ETH outlook
$ETH 2430-2450附近进箜，止笋2470，第一目标2390，第二目标2350。
Current price is 2426, after just reaching a high of 2444, right at the rebound resistance zone mentioned yesterday. It failed to hold after moving higher and slipped back, showing that selling pressure around 2440 remains very real.
After dropping to 2365 yesterday, the short-term price has been grinding back and forth within this range. The bulls are trying to recover, but each approach to resistance has been pushed back.
The price has now reached the target zone, so manage short positions around 2430-2450 as planned. A

Why? Let me start with a village story. There was a well in the village that nobody usually cared about. Then someone suddenly claimed there was gold at the bottom, and everyone in the village rushed in with hoes. Those at the front dug up gold and left, those in the middle were stuck at the mouth of the well, unable to get in or out, and those at the back only saw the dirt others threw out. Now, the $MARSCOIN well has a 24-hour trading volume of 99 million, with its price pushed from 0.0851 to 0.109

Gold Morning Brief | V-shaped Recovery After FOMC Plunge, 4276 Key
Gold fluctuated sharply after the overnight FOMC, plunging rapidly at first before staging a V-shaped recovery and returning to around 4290.
Today’s key points are clear:
🟢 Hold above 4276 → pullback favors longs, first target 4318
🔴 Break above 4318 → then watch 4335
🔵 Break below 4276 → V-shaped structure weakens; watch 4266/4245
Last night proved that the first move after major news is not necessarily the true direction.
Don’t chase the rise or the fall; wait for confirmation at key levels.

9.17 Market Analysis
BTC Silk Road reference setup
Short around the rebound range: 76600—77100
Stop-loss: 77700
First target: 75000, second target: around 74300
Yesterday, BTC fluctuated widely throughout the session. Before and after the Federal Reserve rate decision, the battle between bulls and bears was fierce, with repeated back-and-forth moves.
During the day, the price repeatedly consolidated above 75000, while market sentiment remained highly cautious as funds awaited guidance from the news. After the rate decision was announced early in the morning, the market first dropped rapidly, t

Warsh hikes rates, forced to go head-to-head with Trump!
First hike in three years, passing unanimously with all 12 votes.
The federal funds rate rose from 3.50%–3.75% to 3.75%–4.00%. The first move since July 2023.
Warsh’s statement was short and forceful, just over a hundred words.
The economic assessment was tough: steady growth, resilient domestic demand, strong productivity, robust capital spending, employment keeping pace, and an unemployment rate that has barely moved. Then one sentence killed all wishful thinking: inflation remains elevated.
Today’s move is aimed at bringing prices bac

Yang Guang bit | September 17 $ETH FOMC rate hike confirmed, rebound; favor short positions today
【Today's Strategy】
Entry timing: Set up short positions in the 2430—2440 range on a rebound
Stop-loss: Above 2455
Staggered take-profit levels:
First target: 2390—2400
Second target: 2360—2370
Key conclusion
Geopolitically, the US-Iran military confrontation continues to escalate, but as a high-beta risk asset, ETH has weaker safe-haven properties than BTC. Geopolitical conflict suppresses global risk appetite, with capital withdrawing from high-risk assets, creating indirect bearish pressure. Its

#MemeTokensPullBackAcrossChain Meme Tokens Pull Back Across Chains, But The Story Is Not Over
Meme tokens are once again showing how quickly sentiment can change across the crypto market. After periods of strong speculation and aggressive buying, meme assets across multiple chains are experiencing a pullback, reminding traders that momentum can disappear just as quickly as it appears.
The important point is that a pullback does not automatically mean the entire meme market trend has ended. Meme tokens are driven heavily by liquidity, attention, community activity, listings, narratives, and sho

$XAUT /USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 4272.8 – 4283.8
SL: 4331.4
TP1: 4238.4
TP2: 4211.9
TP3: 4172.0

Why this setup?
Why now? The daily trend is bearish with 95% confidence, and the 1h price is sitting at 4278.3, right inside the entry zone of 4272.8 to 4283.8. The 15m RSI at 50.16 shows indecision, which often precedes a sharp move when the broader trend is already rolling downhill. The 1h ATR of 22.14102 tells us the average hourly range is large enough that a break in either direction can trigger a cascade. This setup targets TP

9/17/BTC‖Prince's View‖
Current status: After the price surged and pulled back, it held above the upper Bollinger Band. Longs have the short-term advantage, but there is resistance above, making this a strong consolidation market.
- Resistance: The high near 76597 is the key short-term resistance for this move. If it breaks through with increased volume, longs will continue to have room to move higher; if it fails to break through, a pullback after the surge is likely.
​- Support: The Bollinger Band middle line at 75706 is today's key long-short watershed. If the middle line holds, the short-
