The Federal Reserve held steady as expected, and “Wash” passed the review right on the line—short positions are paying off nicely! 4.30 Bitcoin Auntie’s thought process

The Federal Reserve kept the benchmark interest rate unchanged at 3.50%-3.75% as scheduled, holding for the third consecutive meeting, in line with market expectations. Wash also smoothly cleared the U.S. Senate Banking Committee’s review, taking another step closer to officially taking office as the Federal Reserve Chair. A “blonde” wrote on social media that Powell wants to stay at the Fed because he can’t find a job elsewhere—no one is willing to hire him. Yesterday’s short idea nailed the target—if you followed the Bitcoin plan, you could take down nearly 3,000 points; if you followed Ethereum, you could grab over 100 points of upside—following the shorts again and you’re still getting your fill!

On the daily chart, Bitcoin and Ethereum both have three consecutive bearish candles. This morning, they printed a bearish candle with a relatively long upper wick; the bearish momentum is getting stronger. Combined with Iran’s fierce criticism of the U.S. over its Strait of Hormuz blockade action yesterday, which will be retaliated against soon, it’s still best not to chase the rally blindly for now—keep the intraday rebound short-selling approach unchanged!
