An extremely strong El Niño is kicking in—what happens next for the next half year is terrifying
In the north, it’s ridiculously hot; in the south, it’s bitterly cold—this year’s weather has truly gone crazy~
Southern friends, pay attention: this winter you may be frozen to the point of questioning life. Don’t be fooled that it’s still mid-summer in the Chinese “sanfu” period—El Niño, the climate boss in the Pacific Ocean, is brewing a big move.
The National Climate Center has issued a warning: this year’s El Niño will develop into an extremely strong state, and may even break historical

$BTC Continue to watch the choppy consolidation, $ETH and focus on defending key levels.
Last night, the market had a violent wipeout: funds fled from the US AI sector, and the leading stock SNDK crashed 40% in half a month. Combined with the escalation of the US-Iran conflict and rate-hike expectations, global financial markets are seeing a major pullback.
Bitcoin is currently around 63,450. Although it looks relatively resilient, in this kind of macro environment it’s hard to break out into an independent trend. It will most likely keep spending more time consolidating. For support, first

That night, the market raided $353 million; 89,492 people went bankrupt. U.S. stocks kept seeing consecutive deep selloffs—just in the first week of July, the AI sector saw nearly $20 billion in capital exited. The acceleration in selloff and exit from last week to this week will only be worse. So recently, after stopping out from ORCL, I haven’t been trading U.S. stocks; the blue-chip SNDK has also plunged 40% in half a month, and it hasn’t bottomed yet!
Net selling of U.S. tech stocks hit the biggest record in 10 years (z-score at -4.0). AI data cen

Oracle $ORCL has been dropping terribly recently 📉
Oracle plunges 61%—$638B worth of orders couldn’t save the stock price? The real reason is only one!
The share price fell from $345 down to $124 in a straight line, a drop of more than 60%. Many people think the company has a problem, but the truth is the opposite.
The latest earnings report is quite impressive: fourth-quarter revenue was $19.2 billion, up 21% year over year; earnings per share were $2.11, beating market expectations. The strongest part is its AI cloud business—revenue of $5.8 billion, up a massive 93% year over year.

CXMT's IPO Is Already Being Priced by Crypto Traders—A Glimpse Into the Future of Capital Markets?
‍#CXMTPreIPOContractIgnitesCommunity
The most interesting part of CXMT's IPO isn't happening on China's stock exchange.
It's happening on-chain.
Days before the company's official market debut, crypto traders have already begun assigning their own valuation through perpetual futures. Instead of waiting for the first trading session on the STAR Market, the market is attempting to answer one question early:
What is China's fastest-rising memory chip company really worth?

Institutions don’t lack yield. They lack trusted, compliant access to it.
Galaxy Digital just launched Galaxy Curator — built on Morpho and integrated with Fireblocks Earn.
2,400+ institutional clients now have access to managed onchain yield strategies without directly touching DeFi protocols.
That’s the signal.
Institutions hold billions in idle stablecoin reserves.
The yield exists onchain. The barrier wasn’t the return — it was the operational complexity and risk of accessing it safely.
Galaxy Curator abstracts much of that complexity.

$LINK preparing to go long! The current price is testing a key support level—before the bears step in again, this area may trigger a quick rebound. For entry, watch the 8.099 to 8.307 range. The upside target to start is 8.512; if things go smoothly, it may even reach 8.759. Place your defense level at 7.856. But be sure to mind the risks: the 1-hour bearish trend is still very strong, and it could break the rebound logic at any moment. Don’t go all-in and gamble—control your position size according to your account. Also, you can take a look at what $SKHYNIX and $BULLA are doing as well.

ONDO rebound lacks momentum, 4H short signals have lit up

$ONDO /USDT - SHORT sell

Trading plan:
Entry: 0.3689 – 0.3727
SL: 0.3892
TP1: 0.3570
TP2: 0.3477
TP3: 0.3339

Why focus on this setup?
- Current price 0.3708, 15-minute RSI 55.87 hasn’t reached overbought
- 1D trend is ranging; on the 4H timeframe, it leans SHORT, with an entry range of 0.3689-0.3727
- TP1 targets 0.3570, TP2 aims at 0.3477, with SL set at 0.3892
- Why now? RSI is neutral but the direction is clear; at the end of the range, it’s prone to break out

Discussion:
Will this short reach TP2 first, or will it imme

📈 BOSS Business School｜Three-Cycle Trading Method: Make Trades More Likely to Win
For many traders, the biggest problem isn’t that they can’t read the market—it’s that they fight every cycle.
Today I’ll share a “three-cycle trading method” that’s quite practical in real trading. By cross-verifying with different time frames, it improves the success rate of entries while reducing ineffective trades.
✅ Step 1: Use the 4-hour chart to determine direction
First, use the 4H moving averages to judge the market’s big trend—only trade in the direction of the trend.
