The recent market movement after the US non-farm payroll data release is quite interesting. The spot, futures, and index prices on a leading exchange all dropped within 5 minutes, but at the same time, futures and event contracts on a certain platform actually started to rise, which is a pretty stark contrast.

It seems that ultra-short-term futures products definitely have market demand. Especially when major economic data like non-farm payrolls are released, event contracts at the 5-minute or even 15-minute level become particularly attractive — allowing for more precise capture of short-term market fluctuations.

If a leading exchange can follow up by launching similar ultra-short cycle event contract products, I believe many traders would be interested. Friends who are interested can provide feedback on this demand.

This wave of contrast is truly amazing—one platform crashes while another takes off in the opposite direction, a real art of harvesting the little guys. Those ultra-short-term plays are indeed easy to get caught up in; at the 5-minute level, they disappear in the blink of an eye. But when non-farm payrolls come out, the opportunity to make quick money is definitely there. The major exchanges move so slowly that they end up getting exploited by smaller platforms—interesting.

This is outrageous. Two platforms are moving in opposite directions at the same time, and I got liquidated twice directly.

Oh no, that's why I never trust candlestick charts. As soon as the non-farm payrolls come out, I'm immediately tricked.

Haha, can we tell if the non-farm payrolls are out? That move by the exchange was really brilliant, practically ground down by small platforms. Almost couldn't resist bottom fishing, but then I realized I didn't even choose the right direction. If you ask me, this is the market breathing; short-term products will inevitably unfold sooner or later.

It's the same routine again. The 5-minute level trading really is a new trick for big players to harvest retail investors.

Laughing out loud, this is what one platform calls paradise, another calls hell. --- The non-farm market operation this time can be called the "Schrödinger's price movement" of the crypto world. --- 5-minute event contracts? Isn't this just a new tool to speed up the harvesting for the leeks? --- Some exchanges are still sleepwalking, while others have already played out ultra-short cycles. The pattern, everyone. --- Feedback request? Bro, you need to make sure they see your suggestion, or it’s just like talking in your sleep. --- With the market so divided, it feels like a test of who can react fastest and handle risk. I bet five bucks most people will bail out. --- So, event contracts are a green light for those who react quickly; those who are a beat slow become the green light heroes.

This round really played with tricks, one drop and one rise, it's truly outrageous. 5-minute contracts really require watching the market, especially during non-farm payroll releases, which are particularly intense. Leading exchanges should wake up, as this demand is right in front of them.

Damn this price difference, why didn't I catch that wave bottom? Next time, I'll prepare in advance for the non-farm payrolls.
