**🌤️ Saturday, 10/10: BTC catches its breath ahead of the data the market is waiting for**

Bitcoin is at **~US$ 82,700–83,000** and has gotten a breather after a nerve-racking week.

**📊 What changed in 48 hours:**
🔻 Thursday (08/10): weekly low near **US$ 80,400**
🔺 Friday (09/10): recovery of ~1%, touching **~US$ 83,500**
📉 Volatility fell sharply: Saturday’s trading range is ~0.7%, compared with ~3.9% on Thursday
💵 ETFs: ~US$ 21 million in inflows on Friday, ending two days of outflows
😀 Fear & Greed Index: **64 (Greed)**, up from 59 previously

**🏦 The macro backdrop:**
The tone of the Fed minutes was hawkish, and the market sees a high chance of another rate hike by the end of the year. That’s why the price hasn’t gained traction: it rises, but runs into uncertainty.

**🗓️ The day that matters: Wednesday (14/10), at 9:30 a.m. Brasília time**
That’s when the **September CPI** is released. A higher-than-expected reading would strengthen bets on higher interest rates, while a cooler one could give the market some breathing room.

**🎯 Levels to watch:**
🟢 Above ~US$ 83,500 → opens the way to US$ 87,000
🟡 ~US$ 82,200 → first test level ahead of the CPI
🔴 Below US$ 80,400 → greater weakness

**🔐 Security alert:** reports are circulating of **more than US$ 86 million in losses** linked to hardware wallets bought from an unauthorized reseller. Buy a hardware wallet **only from the manufacturer’s official website**.

**Summary:** calm price action isn’t a sign of direction. Often, it’s the market holding its breath. Since ETFs don’t trade on weekends, liquidity is thinner, and sharp moves can happen. 😬

Will you trade before the CPI or wait for things to settle? 👇
