Understanding Volatility
Economic releases are reports from governments or banks that share key data about the economy. For example, the Fed Interest Rate announcement tells us if borrowing money will cost more or less. Other releases like CPI show if prices for goods are going up, and PPI tracks costs for producers. These reports come out on set dates and can surprise people if the numbers are higher or lower than expected.
When these releases hit, crypto markets can shake hard. Traders react fast to the news, buying or selling coins like BTC right away. This causes big price swings, as seen in the chart where BTC dropped sharply after the Fed rate release. Volatility spikes because everyone tries to guess what the data means for the future, leading to quick ups and downs in prices.
Clometrix helps you prepare for these moments by forecasting the possible high and low points based on past releases. Instead of guessing, you get clear charts to spot limits in the chaos. This way, you can trade smarter and stay ahead.
