During earnings season, look at guidance before profits

Finish reading out the U.S. market numbers first, then decide whether crypto should follow.

For technical levels, use today’s high and low; don’t force old support levels onto the chart.

Dow 51,787 (5-day -1.13%, Yahoo)
S&P 7,569 (5-day -1.99%, Yahoo)

BTC 24h high 78718 / low 75736, current price 78333. The Nasdaq is down 4.18% over 5 days, lagging the S&P at -1.99%. Growth stocks are falling behind. Chasing AI coins now means catching the beta that U.S. stocks have already started dumping.

ETH +2.62%, outperforming BTC at +1.67%; exchange rate 0.02968. This looks like risk appetite spilling over—not BTC acting alone.

VIX is now 18.19. If it gets above 18, I’ll cut my futures position in half. I’m not going to argue with the U.S. closing price.

My positions: I only buy pullbacks, not breakouts. If the structure holds, I can keep a core position; to add, I have to wait for a pullback level.

Would you dare add to your position at this funding rate?

Takeaway: A low VIX means volatility is being suppressed, not that risk has disappeared.
Idea: VIX<16: U.S. stocks can grind higher, so you can follow the sentiment; reduce futures positions by one notch first.
