    Amid last week's continued questioning of the Fed's pause in rate cuts, consecutive bearish non-farm payroll data emerged, showing the strong resilience of the U.S. economy. The U.S. dollar index hit consecutive new highs, and the employment issue seems to have eased, reducing the demand for rate cuts by the Fed. From major financial institutions like Citibank and Goldman Sachs to individual traders, bets on a 2025 Fed rate cut are being reduced.

    The price of BTC also experienced a huge "wipeout" state, fluctuating up and down by ten thousand points. Many in the market joked that "the price stays the same, but the position is gone." Market sentiment also showed significant fluctuations, rapidly shifting from greed to panic and back to greed. Yesterday's positive PPI data and unresolved inflation issues further increased expectations of a Fed rate cut.

    Less than a week since Trump took office, tonight at 21:30 GMT+8, U.S. CPI data will be released. Will a 2025 rate cut be put on the agenda? Has the Trump narrative already been priced in, or is there still significant potential? Let's see what traders think.

    Macro Analysis School

    @Maoshu_CN

    Today, the market is focusing on BTC's trading volume, referring to the C-wave third wave mentioned in the market. The third wave is often accompanied by a sharp decline and panic selling in the market, leading to a surge in short-term trading volume. Therefore, by looking at the increase in BTC trading volume, we can determine if the third wave has completed!

    As the market overall declines, BTC dominance draws liquidity from ETH altcoins, accelerating the market's risk-off decline.

    The BTC trading volume increased by 25%, compared to the overall market's trading volume increase of 150%, indicating that the volume increase is not significant enough, suggesting that the third wave phase has not yet been completed. Altcoin trading volume increased by 277%. Today, BTC fell below a key level, causing ETH and many mainstream altcoins to break key support levels. The altcoin market likely experienced a large-scale liquidation leading to a surge in trading volume.

    On the funding side, the market's net inflow increased by $400 million, currently at $212.5 billion.

    USDT: Official data shows $137.49 billion, with an increase of $0.03 billion compared to last Saturday. Despite a significant market downturn, net outflows paused in the Asian-European markets, which is a small positive sign. At the same time, USDT liquidity doubled, likely due to a widespread liquidation causing a surge in trading volume.

    BTC

    Overall, in terms of fund flows, funds that ended trading in a downtrend did not see a widespread exodus. Instead, they chose to stay in the market or return to trading, indicating that we are not currently in a panic sell-off phase.

    @Felix_Hsu

    During Monday's U.S. session, funds did not exhibit FOMO and saw net outflows for four consecutive days, even as the price rose from 89,000 to 97,000. This is also why I do not consider 89,200 as a significant bottom. The drop to 89,000 consumed a considerable amount of retail funds from non-U.S. regions, with URPD data showing that many short-term bottom buyers took profits.

    According to SoSoValue data, Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a total net outflow of $210 million yesterday (January 14, U.S. Eastern Time), marking the fourth consecutive day of outflows. The Bitcoin spot ETF with the highest net inflow yesterday was the WisdomTree ETF BTCW, with a daily net inflow of $10.2372 million, bringing its total historical net inflow to $239 million, followed by the VanEck ETF HODL, which saw a daily net inflow of $5.4596 million. The total net asset value of Bitcoin spot ETFs currently stands at $108.981 billion, with an ETF net asset ratio (market value as a percentage of total Bitcoin market value) of 5.7% and a cumulative net inflow of $35.722 billion.

    @Phyrex_Ni

    Since there was no second wave of risk aversion on Tuesday, it either means investors have already priced in enough expectations for the CPI or positive sentiment has offset the potential negative impact of the CPI. In fact, for the CPI data, I don't think this round of data is particularly significant.

    Because the likelihood of the Fed not cutting rates in January is almost 100%, the December inflation data is unlikely to change the Fed's decision. Even in March, there is a high probability that the Fed will not cut rates. According to the dot plot, there may be two rate cuts in 2025, possibly both in the second half of the year, with little chance of a rate cut in the first half of the year.

    So, a single CPI data point is not even as important as the nonfarm data. After all, the current inflation has already been somewhat anticipated by the Fed. Of course, lower inflation data is more beneficial to the market. However, even if December's inflation drops to 2%, the Fed may not immediately cut rates.

    Returning to BTC data, while turnover has increased, with the rebound in BTC price, panic has not occurred. Currently, those exiting are mostly short-term profit investors. Early investors, including those at a loss, do not show significant signs of selling off. This indicates that at least for now, investor sentiment remains relatively stable.

    BTC has broken through the first trendline, and we expect a breakthrough of the second. In the short term, we are waiting for the moving average to catch up with the price before resting and continuing to rise.

    @RaizelXbt

    Adding more BTC long positions here.

    @Alan416993125

    Reviewing history, history is the best teacher. This kind of structure has a high probability of occurrence, and there are often major retracements afterward, at least retracing 50% to 0.618% of the previous large wave. The most brutal year was 5.19 when it retraced back to the starting point of the rise. That was an extreme situation requiring various factors to support it. We are only talking about normal situations, and the previously mentioned 85,000 was calculated based on this.

    Option Market Data:

    The probability of ETH price exceeding 4K by the end of the month is only 10.62%.

    @CryptoPainter_X

    As the price continues to rise, the premium is moving back towards 0, indicating that spot demand is still entering the market. Only when the premium fully recovers to a positive value and reaches a high level, the entire BTC market can be considered in a safe mode.

    Therefore, the current price increase and synchronous recovery of the premium actually represent spot demand entering the market while futures longs gradually take profit and futures shorts gradually add to their positions;

    When the premium returns to around 0, it indicates that futures longs have almost completed their profit-taking. If shorts do not further increase their positions, the premium will not rise, but if shorts continue to add to their positions, then the premium will turn positive;

    In short, when the premium returns to zero, minor trend reversals or continuations are likely to occur;

    In a long trend, each time the premium returns to zero, it is either a consolidation or a sign of a bearish trend reversal, and similarly, in a short trend, each time the premium approaches 0, it is either a rebound to consolidate or a sign of a bullish trend reversal;

    Moreover, based on the key break of $90,000, it can be seen that market demand has weakened, which is why there is the behavior of key support being breached. The current price range has the conditions to become a "distribution range." Like the ranging market in 2024, signs of distribution do not necessarily mean the market will bearish. Strengthened demand could still drive prices higher;
