The latest NFP data came in stronger than expected.
At first glance, that sounds bullish. Strong jobs = strong economy.
But markets don’t move on headlines alone.
A stronger-than-expected NFP can mean: • Delayed rate cuts • Higher-for-longer interest rates • Stronger dollar • Pressure on risk assets
That’s why we often see volatility after NFP — not clarity.
The real questions are: • Does this shift Fed expectations? • How does bond yield react? • Is the dollar strengthening aggressively? • Are equities absorbing the news — or rejecting it?
For me, this isn’t about predicting the next candle.
📌 It’s about managing exposure.
When macro surprises hit, speed can cost you. Structure protects you.
Risk first. Opportunity after confirmation.
How did you position into NFP — reduced risk, hedged, or stayed flat? $ETH $SHIB
