10x normal liqs on $SOL : $2M of longs gone in 3h. Dip buyers are trapped near 101. Short from 100.9, stop 102, target 98.5. I expect one more leg down into the Fed. Would you hold this short through 21:00 MSK?
$BTC Fed rate call at 21:00 MSK and the effective rate sits at 3.88%. I think the move is priced in and the real flush comes at the 21:30 presser. Who gets rekt first, longs or shorts?
Today at 21:00 Moscow time, they’re almost certain to leave rates unchanged—the market is waiting for a hint from Warsh about December. Options traders are pricing in a move of around $1,500 in either direction. I’m long from 80,000, with a stop below 79,000.
