⚠️ This week's market has two major variables; if you're not careful, your account could shrink unexpectedly. Be aware.
**The big background is clear: Federal Reserve policy vs. AI hot topic — both will send signals this week.**
**First, let's talk about the data side**
Non-farm payrolls are announced at 9:30 PM on Friday. There's a very sobering logic behind this: the worse the unemployment data, the more likely the Federal Reserve might ease policy faster, leading funds to flow into risk assets, and Bitcoin often follows suit. Conversely, if the data looks too good, indicating a stable economy, rate cut expectations weaken, and the crypto market might be冷冷的.
The key is to watch the US dollar index. The moment the news comes out, if the dollar index drops sharply, that’s a signal — liquidity is flowing into the crypto market, and you need to be quick.
On the same day, the CPI data from the East will also be released. If that’s not good either, the feeling of global liquidity easing will emerge, and this resonance could directly activate bullish sentiment in the crypto space.
**Next, let's talk about CES**
CES is ongoing, and this year's core topic is AI Agents — digital workers that can browse the internet, trade on their own, and spend money independently. It sounds a bit sci-fi, but the market has already started to hype it.
If a major company suddenly announces that their AI Agent will integrate with blockchain, or reveals some crypto-related partnership plan, related concept tokens could skyrocket in minutes. This is arguably the most explosive short-term opportunity.
**My judgment**
Non-farm payrolls act like a referee, deciding the overall direction of whether the market will go up or down this week; CES acts like a contestant, capable of creating short-term localized frenzy.
If you're fully invested now betting on a certain trend, you're essentially gambling that the market will move in one direction — but both variables this week are still uncertain, so the risk is high.
**How to survive and get through this week**
1. **Be honest before and after the non-farm data** — reduce your positions to the minimum. Don’t act rashly now; just watch how BTC and ETH react, their movements will give you signals for follow-up.
2. **Target the explosive points of CES** — keep a close eye on AI-related news. Once keywords like "blockchain" or "token" appear, enter small positions, buy and sell quickly, take a bite and then run. This isn’t a long-term holding opportunity; it’s short-term trading.
3. **Emotional management is key** — the more volatile the market, the calmer you need to stay. Chasing gains or panic selling only benefits the big players, nothing else.
This week is a game of hunter and prey. Whether you take the initiative or get caught off guard, it’s your choice.

Friday's non-farm payrolls will directly determine life or death. Currently, those holding full positions are all warriors.
If the US dollar index plunges, I'll directly jump into CES's AI concept. I know this fast in and out strategy well.
By the way, CPI is also joining the fun. The real excitement is feeling the global liquidity flood.
Feeling extremely sleepy this afternoon, but I need to stay alert on Friday night. Gas fees are ridiculously high. This week has been too tough.
The big players are waiting to pick up bargains. Don't get caught off guard, everyone.

On Friday at 9:30, when the non-farm payrolls are released, 99% of people will be caught off guard. I bet five bucks you won't escape either.

To those fully invested, this week is just like going to a casino for yourself, nothing else different.
---
If CES really comes out with something like AI on-chain trading, I’ll go all in on PEPE, anyway I’m going to lose.
---
The real showtime is the moment the dollar index plunges; everything else is just a backdrop.
---
Emotional management? Laughable. When volatility hits, my mind is no longer my own. That’s the real truth of the crypto world.
---
Pre-non-farm payrolls position reduction advice is just for the conservative folks. People like us, it’s pointless to listen.
---
Honestly, this week it all depends on who has more chips. The big players win, retail investors lose. The logic is simple and brutal.

Friday night’s non-farm payroll data really needs to be watched closely; a sharp drop in the dollar is a warning sign.
Friends with full positions might take a hit this week, as neither of the two variables has materialized yet.
If CES really announces some blockchain collaboration, small positions can be sniped at.
Don’t chase the highs or sell at lows, brother—you're just giving the market makers free money.
The reactions of BTC and ETH are the real signals; everything else is noise.
This week’s test is still about mindset, not technicals.

On non-farm day, I have to stay glued to the market. Be really careful not to get caught off guard this time.
Both traps are here this week. Friends with full positions, get ready to be manipulated haha.
If CES really develops black technology combining AI and blockchain, I’ll take a small position to test the waters.
The real signal is the US Dollar Index dropping; everything else is false.
Honestly, having a full position already means you've lost. This week, let's see who can come out alive.

Survive that night of non-farm payrolls, grab a quick profit from CES and then run. Honestly, this week has been a bit intense.

All-in investors are just big fools, waiting to be educated by the non-farm payrolls.
