From charts to the macro: a comprehensive approach to anticipate the crypto direction.
As traders, we often focus so much on charts and technical indicators that we sometimes forget the bigger picture. In this analysis, we want to show how an approach that combines reading macroeconomic news with technical analysis can give us a real advantage. Beyond price patterns, understanding fundamental indicators like interest rates, employment data, and inflation allows us to anticipate important movements in the crypto market. Our idea is simple: instead of just looking at the candles, we broaden the perspective to include the macro context. For example, if we see that the Federal Reserve is considering rate cuts for mid-year, we know that the crypto market could start to react months in advance. By integrating this approach, we see that major ups and downs are not just a matter of technical patterns, but that each movement has its reason in the macroeconomic scenario.
In summary, this combined approach helps us understand that the most real and valuable indicators for anticipating where the market is headed are those macro events that we sometimes overlook.
At the end of the day, it’s not just about interpreting charts, but about understanding that the economy as a whole, with its ups and downs and with each fundamental data point, has a direct impact on the crypto direction. So the next time we see a candle move, let’s remember that behind it there is a whole macro context guiding its direction.
In these months operating futures, I understood something key: it's not about predicting the market, it's about reading what it is already saying. At first, many of us believe that everything is the perfect indicator or the magic signal. Over time, I learned that no indicator works alone, and that the true edge appears when you understand the relationship between price, Open Interest, volume, and RSI. - Price is what everyone sees - Volume tells you if that movement has real strength - RSI gives you the pulse, not to buy or sell by itself, but to detect exhaustion or continuity - Open Interest (OI) reveals the most important thing: whether new positions are entering the movement or if only old positions are being closed. This is where my mindset changed. - Price rises + OI rises + volume supports → It's not a "pump", it's new money entering. The movement has intention. - Price rises + OI falls → It's not strength, it's shorts closing. Be careful about buying late. - Price falls + OI rises → Positions are being opened against the previous movement. Continuation may come… or a well-constructed trap. - Price falls + OI falls → Exit of participants. The market breathes before deciding. I don't use RSI here as a traffic light for "overbought / oversold", but as context: Strong RSI with increasing OI → real momentum Divergences with flat or declining OI → early warning And something I learned the hard way: - Leverage does not give you an advantage, it reduces your margin for error. Lowering leverage does not make you a lesser trader, it makes you a better survivor. I also understood that: Not all trades are taken Not all candles are chased The market owes you nothing Trading futures is not about always winning, it's about losing little when you're wrong and letting it run when the market is right. Today I operate more calmly, more selectively, and with one single priority: stay alive for the next trade. If you are starting in futures, stop looking for miracle signals and start reading the structure. The market speaks all the time… you just have to learn to listen.
After the strong push came the normal: strange movements, small shakes, and sweeps downward. Many see this as a drop, but many times it's just the market cleaning positions before moving again.
Some things I look at:
– The price returned to mid zones (where it usually bounces). – In short timeframes, it is already oversold. – There is not strong selling in a chain, rather quick movements back and forth. – The price is moving within a clear range, as if building a base.
This happens a lot:
first they shake out the impatient, then they bore the market, and after that they make the real move.
The idea is not to guess, but to read the structure and have patience.
Don't trade with emotion, trade with logic. And always with risk management.
📱 Where to see the maintenance margin in the APP (mobile)? Step by step (Binance App): 1️⃣ Open the Binance app 2️⃣ Go to Futures 3️⃣ Go to the Open Positions section 4️⃣ Tap your position (the pair you are trading) 5️⃣ The Position Details panel opens There you will see: Initial margin Maintenance margin Liquidation price Available margin 📌 That number called "Maintenance margin" is the red line. 🧠 What is the maintenance margin? (summarized) It is the minimum amount of money that the exchange requires you to have in order for your position to remain active. 👉 It is not your stop 👉 It is not your idea 👉 It is not optional If your available margin falls below that number: ❌ The exchange automatically liquidates your position ⚠️ VERY important point If you have multiple open positions: The exchange sums all maintenance margins Compares them against your total margin If it doesn't reach: ➡️ closes everything, even if the price hasn't exploded 🧩 Phrase to remember The maintenance margin does not give a warning. If you cross it, the exchange takes control.
$ASTER comes from a strong dump and the rebound we are seeing is more of a relief than a real intention.
It remains below important averages, without bullish structure and with weak volume. For now, 0.66–0.68 is resistance, not support, and it does not look like an immediate level to recover.
The most logical scenario continues to be to move sideways or even sweep a little lower before thinking about something more serious. The rebound exists, yes, but there is still no clear sign of a reversal. Patience and management.
This is not about guessing the bottom, but about waiting for the market to show its hand.
