📌ALERT! Key Macro Event for Futures Traders at 13:30 UTC The entire market is focused on today's main event: the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for December. The key forecast is a year-over-year increase of 2.7%. What This Means for Trading: 📈CPI at or below 2.7%: This could fuel hopes for future Fed rate cuts, potentially triggering a local rally. Watch the key resistance for BTC near $96,200. 📉CPI above 2.7%: This could reinforce the view that the Fed will keep rates high for longer, leading to a risk-off sentiment and potential sell-offs in crypto. The critical support level for BTC is around $90,000. Trading Plan: Avoid emotional decisions. Set up your orders in advance. Prepare OCO (One-Cancels-the-Other) orders: Buy-Stop above $96,200 for a potential breakout long. Sell-Stop below $90,800 for a potential breakdown short. Market Context: The market is already on edge. Bitcoin has corrected to ~$91,000, and Ethereum to ~$3,144. Be aware of other weekly risks: the CFTC Commitment of Traders report on Friday and the Senate vote on the crypto regulatory CLARITY Act tomorrow. Manage your risk, set your stop-losses, and trade the plan. Discipline is key today, not predictions.
