Tonight's non-farm payroll data release, which is usually a key factor in determining short-term market momentum. The market is diverging in expectations—some see a bullish opportunity for Bitcoin and Ethereum to surge, while others are cautious about potential correction risks.

From on-chain data, large transfers of ETH and BNB are quite frequent, and the activity within the SOL ecosystem remains strong. These signals may hint at the beginning of a new wave of market movement.

Instead of passively waiting, it's better to actively observe. Some low-liquidity meme coins happen to contain opportunities amid this data-driven volatility. But be sure to manage risks—progress on the Federal Reserve's repurchase agreement plan directly impacts liquidity expectations, which in turn influences the entire market.

Macro economic data + on-chain trends + capital flow changes—only by considering all three can we get a clear picture of this wave of market movement. What are your thoughts?

The non-farm payroll data is back again. It's really hard to predict how this wave of market will move; it feels like everyone is betting on the Fed's mood. Large transfers of ETH and BNB are indeed frequent, but high on-chain activity doesn't necessarily mean we have to rush in; it depends on who is transferring. As for low-liquidity meme coins... well, I admit I was tempted before, but after losing some money, I’ve learned to be smarter. Macro + on-chain + capital—simply put, it's a bottomless pit. How many people can really manage all three simultaneously? In times like these, sitting on the sidelines and watching the show is the most comfortable. Let's wait for the dust to settle before making any moves.

Regarding the non-farm payroll data, to be honest, I don't believe in any macro analysis at all. I'm just watching to see if meme coins can bottom out; everything else is nonsense.

nonfarm always the same theatre tbh—liquidity depth gets tested, mev extractors go brr, then everyone acts shocked. eth large transfers? classic accumulation patterns before volatility spikes. the real opportunity cost lies in *not* watching fed repo moves closely enough, that's where the edge actually is imo

As soon as the non-farm payroll data is released, you know who's swimming naked. Meme coins are indeed easy to get cut this time.

The night before the non-farm data is released, there's always someone trying to gamble in meme coins. I just can't understand this logic...

Whenever the non-farm data is released, things get serious. I bet fifty cents that tonight will once again be a bloody storm.

When major economic data like Non-Farm Payrolls is released, 99% of people will be stunned, so it's still more reliable to observe on-chain movements. With such frequent large transfers of ETH and BNB, it seems like big players are quietly positioning themselves. The opportunities in meme coins are indeed tempting, but I'm still hesitant. The Federal Reserve's policies are too hard to understand, and when liquidity tightens, everything is over.

Non-farm data-driven market movements are the easiest to shake out retail investors, so I still choose to wait and see... Meme coins do have potential, but it's really too exciting, and the risks are so high I can't sleep. On-chain data is trending high, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's good. Large transfers might just be a top escape? The macro + on-chain + capital flow theory sounds perfect, but who has actually implemented it in practice... The Federal Reserve's repurchase operations are about to stir things up again. Liquidity is already unstable, and now they want to touch meme coins? That's a bit crazy. The night before non-farm data, the biggest fear is being cut by the market overnight. Let's wait until the data is released to see. This wave of market movement feels a bit虚, on-chain heat doesn't necessarily represent real demand. Don't go where there are many people; high SOL heat actually indicates concentrated risks. Another cliché "three-pronged approach to see clearly," but no one can see clearly, hahaha... Rather than analyzing so much, it's better to go all-in on reverse operations—that's true proactive observation.

This non-farm wave actually depends on how the Fed folks handle it tonight. Meme coins are all traps when liquidity tightens. The SOL ecosystem is still burning money to boost hype. Large ETH transfers—what do they indicate... Those trapped are probably just repositioning. Instead of analyzing on-chain data, it's better to check if you have stop-loss orders 😅. Honestly, low-liquidity tokens are just meat grinders for retail investors at times like this. Be careful, guys.

As soon as the non-farm payroll data is released, you have to watch the market closely. I bet five dollars it will crash completely. Meme coins do have some opportunities, but you really need to exercise restraint. Last time, I got liquidated directly because I didn't control the risk well. On-chain data looks pretty good, but honestly, this is the easiest time to get cut. Brothers, take it easy. If the Federal Reserve starts easing monetary policy, we might really be heading to the moon.
