🗓 Key Events This Week
A busy week with major bank earnings, Fed communication, and early manufacturing data. The US data blackout from the ongoing government shutdown still limits visibility on key macro releases.
Monday
• US Bank Holiday (Columbus Day) — lower overall market activity expected as US banks and bond markets are closed.
• OPEC Monthly Report — updates on global oil balance, production quotas, and demand outlook. Any sign of tightening supply could support energy prices and lift inflation expectations.
Tuesday
• JPMorgan Chase $JPM earnings — first major bank report of the season, sets tone for financials and credit outlook.
• Goldman Sachs $GS earnings — focus on trading revenue and deal flow.
• Fed Chair Powell speech — main macro focus of the week. Markets will look for signals on policy bias and growth risks. Softer tone could weigh on USD and boost risk assets.
Wednesday
• Bank of America $BAC earnings — insight into consumer credit trends and deposit stability.
• Morgan Stanley $MS earnings — focus on investment banking and wealth management activity.
• NY Fed Manufacturing Survey — early read on October factory conditions and pricing trends.
Thursday
• Taiwan Semiconductor $TSM earnings — key for semiconductors and global tech sentiment.
• Philly Fed Manufacturing Survey — confirms or contradicts Wednesday’s Empire data, watched for new orders and prices paid.
• NAHB Housing Market Index — fresh read on builder sentiment amid limited federal data flow.
Roughly 10% of the S&P 500 reports this week, led by major banks and early cyclicals.
Macro direction will depend on Powell’s tone and manufacturing data. A cautious Fed plus soft surveys could ease yields and support risk. Strong prints, on the other hand, may revive dollar demand and keep equities under pressure.
You don’t need a new system.
You need 90 days of obedience to the one you already have.
That’s where transformation happens.

The night everyone will remember
More than 19 billion dollars in positions were liquidated in just a few hours. Altcoins fell 70 to 90 percent across exchanges, liquidity vanished, and even experienced traders were left staring at screens in disbelief.
It was one of the worst nights since the FTX crash. Many lost everything they built over years.
What happened will be remembered for a long time, not for the charts, but for how sudden and cruel it felt.
If you took losses, we feel it with you.
Everyone who’s been through a crash knows this weight.
But you still have time, life, and another chance ahead.
Money comes back. It always does. What matters now is that you protect your energy, your mind, and your health. Those are the things that rebuild everything else.
One day you’ll look back on this moment with a quiet smile, knowing you made it through. For now, just hold on.
The darkest hours always come before the dawn.

📈 How Markets Actually Move: Liquidity 101
Price does not move because time passes. It moves when orders meet. Learn how market and limit orders, liquidity, and liquidations interact and the tape stops looking random.
🟡 Market and limit orders
Market order is the taker: it crosses the spread and consumes resting liquidity.
Limit order is the maker: it sits in the book and gets hit.
Stops and trigger orders are just delayed market orders. They fire on events and often add fuel to breakouts or fakeouts.
🟡 Footprint charts
Footprints display executed market buys and sells at each price. They are ideal for reading absorption and exhaustion.
Many sells at one level with no further drop implies bids are absorbing.
Use them on volume, delta, or range bars, not only on time charts.
TLDR: footprints show trades that happened, while heatmaps show resting orders that can disappear.
🟡 Liquidity: spread and depth
In crypto the spread in majors is often tiny, so depth matters most.
Shallow books mean more slippage and easier pushes through thin zones.
If price rips through the same area with less volume than before, orders were likely pulled.
Price seeks the path of least resistance: thin books.
🟡 Depth of market
DOM shows resting limits on both sides and the market orders hitting them.
Pull and stack columns reveal live adds and cancels, useful for spotting iceberg orders that keep refilling at one level.
Because crypto is fragmented, watch the DOM across several top exchanges for a truer picture.
🟡 Heatmaps
Good for visualizing where liquidity used to sit and how pulls affect price.
Important caveat: orders can be pulled. Heatmaps are not gospel for live intent.
If you want a heatmap view, Bookmap is a strong option for real-time order book visualization.
🟡 How liquidations move price
When a trader is liquidated, the position becomes the exchange’s risk and must be flattened.
On DEXs like Hyperliquid, liquidations hit the market immediately as market orders.
If there are not enough opposing limits, forced executions create cascades.
Watch for violent spikes into thin areas: these often present favorable entries when absorption appears.
🟡 A practical checklist
🟢Identify the driver: are stops about to trigger or are limits absorbing
🟢 Check depth across venues: is liquidity thin ahead
🟢 Read the footprint: is a move accelerating or exhausting
🟢 Confirm with DOM: are levels pulling or stacking
🟢 Plan entries around absorption after a sweep, not into thin air
Markets move when takers meet makers, not on the clock. Learn where liquidity sits, when it disappears, and how forced flow like stops and liquidations hits the book. Once you see that tape, you stop chasing candles and start trading intent.
🌍 When the Dollar Turns, the World Turns
The dollar has always been more than a currency. It’s the world’s risk switch and when it flips, everything else follows.
Every major dollar top in the past 50 years has marked a turning point in global markets. When the dollar rises, U.S. assets dominate. When it weakens, capital escapes abroad, lifting global and emerging markets.
Key shifts now:
🟡 U.S. equities are near record valuations relative to the rest of the world.
🟡 The dollar is losing momentum as deficits and debt make its strength unsustainable.
A weaker dollar may soon become the implicit policy choice to stabilize the system. If that happens, it won’t just be a currency move — it will mark the start of a major capital rotation.
The next bull market might not be in America, but in the markets that have been forgotten for a decade.
JUST IN: Kalshi is now forecasting a record-long government shutdown, with the probability rising steadily over the past month amid stalled negotiations in Washington. Such an extended shutdown would exceed historical precedents and heighten risks to the economy and markets.

💥 Crypto’s $550B Comeback
After one of the worst crashes in recent memory, the crypto market has already recovered more than $550B in value. What looked like panic turned into one of the fastest reversals in years.
🟡 Massive liquidation event erased $800B in market cap after Trump’s tariff announcement.
🟡 Within 36 hours, buyers stepped in aggressively, pushing total market cap back above $3.8T.
🟡 Liquidity gaps across exchanges amplified both the fall and the rebound.
🟡 The move exposed how tightly crypto is now tied to global macro news.
Volatility like this defines cycles. Those who survive it often end up owning the next one.
