everyone thinks macro data drops don't matter during a greed cycle, but actually they're the exact liquidity traps wiping out overleveraged degens.
we just watched traders blindly longing the breakout while the greed index sits at 73, only to get instantly flushed when jobless numbers missed expectations and yields spiked. getting chopped up right before major liquidity rotates into alts is the easiest way to bleed your stack to zero.
look at how fast the sentiment flipped across the board today. people were aggressively bidding high-beta plays like $NEIRO and jumping into infra like $ICP expecting a clean continuation, completely ignoring the macro pressure cooking in the background. when the macro shock hit, capital immediately fled back into $USDT safety, leaving late longs holding heavy bags. ngl, watching retail ape into breakout pumps without checking macro yields is painful ser.
the play here was never chasing green candles on the initial wick, it was waiting for the forced liquidations to settle.
how are you hedging your open positions before the next macro print drops?
