Tomorrow’s JOLTs print might sound boring, but it’s one of those “quiet” numbers that can move everything from stocks to crypto.
On Dec 9, the JOLTs Job Openings data drops.
Market expects about 7.2M open jobs in the US.
What is this?
JOLTs = how many job openings companies say they have
High number → companies are still hiring → labour market is tight
Low number → hiring slows → economy is cooling
Why does it matter?
Hot labour market → Fed can keep rates higher for longer (inflation risk)
Cooler labour market → gives Fed room to cut rates sooner (more liquidity)
So for 7.2M:

BTC update for the week - dec 7
Price is chilling around $90K on the daily.
Key zones I’m watching:
> Support: $82–84K (buyers stepped in hard here last time)
> Resistance: $97–100K (last test got instantly slapped down)
My plan:
> Clean break & daily close above $100K → room to push toward $110K+
> Lose $84K again → I start eyeing the $75–78K demand zone below
Until one of those levels gives, this is classic range chop.
$BTC is basically stuck between “I might send it” and “I might rug your emotions.”

ETH weekly update
Price around $3.1K and knocking on the door of the 50-week EMA (~$3.3K) the same line that’s flipped bull/bear for years.
If ETH can close and hold above $3.3–3.5K, that’s your signal for trend back in bull mode and a path toward $3.8K → $4.2K+
If it rejects here, don’t be shocked by a move back toward $2.7K–2.4K.
Simple: ETH is at a “prove it” level. Break the EMA and the party resumes. Fail here and it’s just another rally in a downtrend.

Everyone yelling ‘altseason’ is early. This chart is the reality check.
Yellow = BTC price
Green = total crypto market cap
Thin lines = market cap of Top 10 / Top 50 / Top 100 alts
Most of the move up this cycle, green has just followed yellow.
BTC did the heavy lifting, alts came along for the ride.
We only had a short window where green really pulled away from yellow – that was the mini-alt impulse. Since then, both rolled over and the smaller caps (Top 50 / 100) have been bleeding harder. Classic risk-off inside a bull trend: money hiding in BTC + a few strong names.

All high-impact prints. Any big surprise on jobs, liquidity or inflation = volatility for stocks & crypto.
I’ll be tracking the moves live - hit notifications if you don’t want to miss the reaction.

Why is everyone bullish at the top and terrified at the discount?
Crypto Fear & Greed Index is sitting at 22 = fear.
That’s not “end of the world” territory – that’s usually where the next good entries start forming in bull cycles.
Fear zone = high volatility, forced sellers, quiet accumulation.
Copy the data and stick to your plan.
