Trading Desk Insights

Equities and crypto rallied as investors looked past the latest United States government shutdown. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told CNBC the shutdown could weigh on growth, yet the base case is a brief pause that limits damage. The Senate’s next voting window is Friday. Prediction markets lean toward a shutdown that lasts close to two weeks. As visibility narrows, flows are tilting toward gold and crypto.

Bitcoin cleared the 118,000 bearish supply zone we have tracked. The daily close flips structure toward the highs near 124,500. A pullback to former resistance is plausible before the next leg higher. Open interest climbed across majors as traders chased after being caught offside.

Positioning now reflects easier global liquidity. With Friday’s payrolls possibly delayed and Japanese yields at their highest since 2008, crypto is beginning to drift away from broader macro caution. Data gaps and fiscal fog often keep central banks more careful.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs logged the largest daily inflow since September 10 at $675.8 million. BlackRock IBIT now sits near the top 20 ETFs by assets at 90.7 billion dollars.

Nasdaq listed VisionSys AI announced a $2b treasury plan centered on SOL. The first phase targets $500m of SOL to acquire and stake within six months. The company named early SOL backer Hakob Sirounian as chief strategy officer.

Futures now price a 99% chance of a rate hike in October and an 87% chance of two cuts by December. Those probabilities were 37% a month ago and 61% a week ago.
