🚨 EVERYTHING TURNED GREEN TODAY — HERE’S WHAT I THINK HAPPENED
I woke up to red charts.
A few hours later… everything flipped green.
So what changed?
Yes — U.S. inflation data came in softer than expected.
Lower CPI = lower pressure on the Fed.
Lower pressure = higher probability of rate cuts.
And markets front-run liquidity.
But I don’t think CPI was the only reason.
Here’s what I’m seeing:
• Shorts were overcrowded after the recent dip.
• Funding was leaning negative.
• Order books were thin on the upside.
That’s a perfect recipe for a squeeze.
Once price started moving, it wasn’t just buyers —
it was liquidations pushing it higher.
I watched BTC, ETH, and XRP react almost simultaneously.
That kind of synchronized move usually signals macro positioning, not random retail buying.
So was it inflation?
Partly.
Was it positioning + liquidity?
Definitely.
In crypto, green candles rarely have one single cause.
It’s macro + psychology + leverage.
Today felt like a reminder:
Markets don’t move on news.
They move on imbalance.
Are we starting a real reversal…
or was this just a clean squeeze?
