6. Fed's Gursbee said: Fed forecasts show that the vast majority of people believe that in the next 12 to 18 months, economic conditions will continue to improve and interest rates will gradually and significantly decline; the job market has cooled to full employment; the overall trend is obviously that inflation has fallen significantly.
7. Analyst Michael Brown said that the September CPl data is unlikely to substantially change the Fed's policy outlook. It is expected that the remaining two interest rate meetings this year will each cut interest rates by 25 basis points. The pace of interest rate cuts may continue until 2025, until it returns to a neutral level of around 3% next summer.
8. JPMorgan analyst David Kelly: There is no endogenous factor that will make the economy hotter or colder. The economy is "very good". From the perspective of the Federal Reserve, given that interest rates are still too high, they may tend to gradually lower interest rates to normal levels.

The figure shows the recent derivatives trend signals, which are mainly calculated based on the short squeeze mechanism of the derivatives market. Red generally represents short squeeze. If it returns to the yellow range many times, it may mean that the short squeeze is over. There are initial signs of short squeeze in the market.
(The figure below shows the chip structure of long-term holders)
The chip structure of long-term holders has fallen into growth stagnation and there are some signs of slowing trend.
(The figure below shows the head of illiquid whales)
Non-liquidity whales still maintain a relatively increased holding state. This proves that they are still relatively optimistic about the long-term trend of the market.
(The following figure shows the large net positions of exchanges)
The large net positions of exchanges in the market show that there is no selling pressure at present. From the perspective of selling pressure, the market is relatively healthy. In general, the market accumulation is stable and the selling pressure is relatively small.
Mid-term exploration
• Structural analysis model for each price level
• Incremental model
• Liquidity supply
• Whale comprehensive score model
• USDC comprehensive score
(Figure below: Structural analysis model for each price level)
According to the structural model, the current short-term cost is concentrated around 62,500, and participants who have entered the market in the near future are concentrated around this area to participate in the game. There may be more intense competition for the chips around this area.
(Figure below: Incremental model)
The incremental model shows that the supply of short-term participants has increased. There may be a certain proportion of new entrants in the current market.
(Figure below: Liquidity supply)
Liquidity has increased to a certain extent, and the exchange of chips in the market may be smoother, and the market will gradually improve.
(Figure below: Whale comprehensive score model)
