Emily sat at her desk with a cup of coffee, the monitor glowing with a cool blue light. The morning started as usual—news, charts, the flow of information. But today, something was off.
— Hmm... December 10, 2025. The Fed cut the rate by 0.25 percentage points. Range 3.5–3.75%. Interesting...
At first glance, it looks like good news for crypto. But reality is more complex. The Fed’s comments were harsher than expected: only one cut projected for 2026, not five. The divergence of opinion within the Federal Reserve is at its highest in years.
Bitcoin fell to $94,000 (risking a test of the $84,000 lows).
— Paradox, — Emily thought. —Rate cuts = liquidity = asset growth. But the market is down. Why?
She recalled old chat logs:
"The Fed cut rates! Why is crypto dumping?!"
The veterans answered:
"First time?"
People confuse the event (the rate cut) with the signal (why it happened). The Fed didn't cut because of inflation (4.1% is normal), but out of worry for the labor market. Employment concerns outweighed residual inflation risks.
For traders, this means volatility and uncertainty.
From the Bitget terminal, a quiet pair on the 15m timeframe looked back. Enjin Coin (ENJ).
It has fallen 99% from its maximum ($4.80–4.82 in 2021). Current price — around $0.03.
Money doesn't seek stories. Money seeks opportunities.
ENJ painted a sharp impulse up, then a pullback. A fresh "dip" appeared on the chart. Emily applied the CMO (Chande Momentum Oscillator).
The CMO moves from –100 to +100 (unlike the 0–100 range of RSI).
Key difference: It is more sensitive to impulses and doesn't "stick" to extremes. It shows the moment when the energy is critical — and a bounce begins.
On ENJ/USDT, the CMO fell below –50 — a clear signal of oversold conditions.
Emily launched a dynamic order grid. The market recovered. Exit at the CMO 50 crossover.
Asset: ENJ/USDT (15m, Bitget)
Signal: Bounce from oversold (RSI + CMO)
Entry: Dynamic order grid
Exit: CMO level 50
Result: +4.04%
The mechanics are simple: when everyone sells in panic, market makers see an imbalance. They know a bounce is inevitable.
Emily closed the terminal. Several trades this morning — a plus in the journal.
On the table lay the Mt. Gox archives. Once, people shouted that Bitcoin was dead. Yet, it remained.
Volatility is not the enemy. It is the noise where you can find a signal.
If you know where to look.
