Tonight's market pattern is quite interesting. The US December CPI data is about to be released, followed by speeches from key Federal Reserve officials. These dual catalysts often cause significant market volatility. The current market has already sensed this, with both bulls and bears increasing their positions secretly, and volatility has clearly risen.

From a technical perspective, the signals are very clear—the moment the shoe drops is the moment of trend confirmation. Whether the data is more bullish or bearish, the market will give a definitive choice.

Specifically regarding a few cryptocurrencies: ASTER has repeatedly tested the key level at 0.7. If it can hold, there is still hope for the future. DUSK's daily chart has broken out, but beware of a pullback after the positive news is priced in; this is quite common. ETH, as a market barometer, warrants more attention for its trend.

A few risk control suggestions: if using leverage, you must strictly set stop-losses to prevent being swept out by sudden spikes; spot traders can consider scaling in gradually—never go all-in at once; lastly, the real test is not how the market fluctuates, but whether you can remain rational during volatility.

My own approach is to maintain a stable core position, allocate some flexible funds to catch swings, and use the profits to gamble while keeping the principal firmly intact. Tonight, I’ll keep the coffee going—let’s see how the market unfolds. What is your current position size? Planning to buy on dips or reduce positions in advance?
