#Gate广场四月发帖挑战 PCE and CPI data higher than expected, will Black Friday Bitcoin crash?
Recent market movements closely follow Middle East tensions, with a temporary ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran in place. Last night, Iran started causing trouble again. Tonight, the big reveal: March PCE and CPI data will be released. March CPI is expected at 3.4%, higher than February’s 2.4%. Core CPI for March is expected at 2.7%, above February’s 2.5%. Due to the impact of the US-Iran Z dispute and energy fluctuations on the economy, the higher-than-expected data has led to a cooling of rate cuts, increased US Treasury yields, and pressure on stocks and cryptocurrencies, facing downside risks.
BTC is currently in a clear upward trend, but trading volume is extremely thin, creating a divergence between price and volume. The continuation of the rally is uncertain and may be a trap for bulls. Focus on shorting from high levels, watch for a pullback to support at 71,500-70,400. Breaking below 70,400 would damage the bullish pattern, so consider light positions around this level.
Short positions around 7,240-7,280, with a stop at 7,370. Target 7,150-7,040, and if broken, look down to 6,920.
ETH short positions around 2,234-2,256, with a stop at 2,298. Target 2,160, and if broken, look down to 2,110.
Short-term trading should be flexible and adjusted based on your own position and situation!

BTC is currently in a clear upward trend, but trading volume is extremely thin, creating a divergence between price and volume. The continuation of the rally is uncertain and may be a trap for late buyers. Focus on shorting from high levels, watch for a pullback to support at 71,500-70,400. Breaking below 70,400 would ruin the bullish pattern, so consider light positions around this level.
Short around 7240-7280, with a stop at 7370, target 7150-7040. If broken, look further down to 6920.
ETH short around 2234-2256, with a stop at 2298, target 2160, and if broken, down to 2110.
