Unexpectedly strong Non-Farm Payrolls, short positions once again profit big! 1.8 Bitcoin Auntie’s Strategy

US December ADP employment increased by 41,000, below the expected 50,000, indicating that the labor market is losing momentum as we approach 2026. Notably, small businesses have resumed hiring, while large corporations are contracting. As a result, US stocks surged then sharply retreated, and the coin prices did not follow the rally. Yesterday’s short-selling strategy yielded huge profits, with Bitcoin gaining nearly 2,000 points and Ethereum over 100 points!

Bitcoin Auntie’s daily chart closed bearish but did not break below the 60-day moving average. The Bollinger Bands are narrowing significantly. The KDJ indicator on the chart is at a high level and turning down to form a death cross. The MACD momentum continues to shrink. The overall trend is leaning towards bearish, so the idea of rebounding and shorting remains unchanged. This week’s main event to watch is the Friday Non-Farm Payrolls!
