Pal BTC Daily Market Report — 5.12 1. Daily Chart (Image 1) 1) Monday's market action: If you call it strong, it didn’t even break 80 before bouncing back up. If you call it weak, it hasn’t surpassed the previous high. Overall, still leaning bullish. 2) Key focus today is CPI. Previous value was 3.30%, expected at 3.7%. The rebound this time is mainly driven by “energy-based inflation” + base effects, not broad overheating demand. However, a slight uptick in core CPI could make the market more concerned about “stickiness.” So: 1⃣ If the data meets or is slightly below expectations, inflation remains high but manageable, the dollar may weaken slightly, benefiting U.S. stocks and crypto. 2⃣ If the data significantly exceeds expectations (especially if core CPI is above 0.3%), the dollar strengthens, U.S. stocks face pressure, bearish for crypto. Tonight’s CPI is likely to meet or slightly fall below expectations, confirming “phase-based inflation rebound but not out of control.” The focus will be on energy contributions vs. core stickiness. 2. Hourly Chart (Image 2) 1) Yesterday, BTC swept the intraday low before moving up to fill the FVG, tested the previous high, and then pulled back. 2) Currently oscillating between 803-825, overall still slightly bullish within the range. Watch for reactions after retesting FVG liquidity to look for long opportunities. 3) Only consider bearish bias if it breaks below 801.
