Wednesday night's futures data is quite interesting.

CITIC's side didn't move much, with net short positions increasing by 774 lots, a slight addition to the short side. But on the institutional side? Long positions actually increased by 1102 lots. This divergence is worth pondering—adding both shorts and longs, the market sentiment is a bit conflicted.

Tonight also has a major event: the release of the Federal Reserve meeting minutes. If they do cut interest rates, the market will most likely open high tomorrow and then pull back, as year-end profit-taking will encourage traders to lock in gains. At this stage, position management is more important than bottom-fishing.

The data is here, and it's up to you to interpret it. This does not constitute any trading advice; please decide for yourselves.

CITIC short position 774 lots, institutional long position 1102 lots. This wave of divergence is indeed interesting. One adds short, one adds long—who the hell is the smart money? --- Once the Federal Reserve minutes are released, it's the same old routine: gap up then sell off. Year-end everyone wants to cash out, don’t be too greedy. --- Position management > bottom fishing, that’s not wrong. But on the other hand, the real difficulty is knowing when to clear your positions. --- Hey, why did CITIC only add 774 lots, while institutions are so aggressive with 1102 lots? There’s a story behind this. --- Expectations of rate cuts have all been priced in. Once the minutes are out, the market should shake out. Repeated hits and misses will trap more investors again. --- Year-end is the most frustrating time; everyone is watching how others move, and no one dares to be the first to run, or they’ll get trapped. --- Institutions added a net 1102 long lots, are they betting that the rate cut expectations haven’t been fully digested, or are they hedging? Details determine life or death. --- Position management sounds simple, but in reality, it tests psychological resilience—can you resist the temptation to chase high? --- CITIC’s actions are so small; both bulls and bears seem a bit cautious. Are they waiting for some signal?

Institutions keep adding both assets and liabilities at the same time, this mindset is really conflicting, no one can be sure.
