tonight, the release of US economic data is dense and requires close attention!

Retail sales, PPI, and EIA crude oil inventories are three data points that will directly impact market expectations. Among them, PPI and retail sales data relate to inflation trends and consumer strength, and these two indicators have a direct influence on the Federal Reserve's monetary policy decisions.

The Federal Reserve always pays close attention to these types of data before each meeting to decide whether to adjust interest rates. Once there are signals of a shift in interest rate policy, the strength of the dollar will switch rapidly, and BTC prices often follow the dollar's performance fluctuations.

It seems that the forecast and previous values do not differ much, but the actual released data often surprises the market. Especially if EIA crude oil inventories suddenly surge, combined with weak economic data, the market may experience intense volatility—under such circumstances, BTC is easily attacked by short-term funds.

The key is to understand the logic behind these macroeconomic data: strong inflation data → hawkish Fed → dollar appreciation → pressure on risk assets. Conversely, the opposite applies. On a night of dense data releases, volatility is often overestimated, and short-term trading opportunities increase. At this time, maintaining rationality and risk control is more important than blindly chasing gains.

It is recommended to closely track data release times, adjust positions in advance, and avoid passive actions in the unknown.
