Currently, market liquidity is gradually recovering, but whether it can rebound or continue to adjust depends mainly on the non-farm payroll report on Friday evening.
The background is very clear. The US manufacturing PMI is only 47.9, which is indeed disappointing and directly reflects the pressure on economic fundamentals. This means the dollar lacks support, and the logic of maintaining strength in the short term is fading. Right now, the entire market is focused on one thing: waiting for the non-farm payroll data on Friday. This report will determine whether the market continues to bet on rate cuts or is cooled down by reality.
The implications for the crypto market are actually not complicated—weakening of the dollar usually benefits crypto assets, which is basic logic. But the problem is that the market is now on high alert; a decline in the dollar alone is not enough to attract large funds to enter the market. Funds are waiting for the starting gun—only after the Friday data confirms the direction will they dare to make large-scale moves.
The short-term strategy is also straightforward: maintain a range-bound stance from Monday to Thursday, as any fluctuations before the data release lack substantial driving force. The smart approach is to prepare for both scenarios: either temporarily exit and observe or keep enough ammunition. Once the market reaction on Friday is clear, immediately identify the trend direction and enter at the confirmed levels. The goal is to validate trading ideas, and waiting for these high-confidence market opportunities is exactly what this approach aims for.

Waiting for Friday again, waiting every day for Friday, it feels like the entire market is hostage to the non-farm payrolls... PMI is so disappointing, yet the dollar can still hold up, the logic is starting to stretch a bit thin.

Friday's non-farm payrolls are real, but it still feels too early to talk about a rebound.
Let's wait; big funds are all waiting for this move.
The US dollar is weak, but major institutions haven't moved yet, so let's not rush.
With PMI looking so bad, the pressure is indeed enormous.
Monday to Thursday is just waiting around; the real action is on Friday night.
Honestly, it's a gambler's mentality—everyone is waiting for a clear signal before placing bets.
I find this wave of volatility quite boring; without substantial drivers, it's just a waste of time.
Even if the dollar crashes, the crypto market might not necessarily rise; it depends on the market sentiment.
Keep enough ammunition ready; wait for confirmation before entering.
Entering now is just gambling, and I don't gamble.

Friday's non-farm payrolls are the real starting gun; anything said now is just pointless...

Friday Non-Farm Payrolls report… It’s the same old "starting gun," waiting and waiting, I really can’t stand it.
---
PMI 47.9 still talking about the dollar’s strength, it’s something that should have collapsed long ago.
---
To put it simply, right now it’s big funds pretending to be dead, only daring to move after Friday’s confirmation. Small investors like us should just watch the show quietly.
---
Preparing for both sides sounds simple, but when it comes to the critical moment, you still have to stand your ground…
---
A weak dollar = rising coins, that logic isn’t wrong, but do people really believe it now? The rumors and fears are exactly like that.
---
Waiting for Friday again, waiting for the report… the market’s clock never stops.
---
Save enough ammunition to sound bullish, but what’s the result? In the end, still caught in the套路.
