Japanese Investors Sell $29.6 Billion in U.S. Bonds in Three Months @binance 19M・Verified Binance official account Japan's international balance of payments data released on Wednesday revealed that Japanese investors sold a net total of 4.67 trillion yen, equivalent to $29.6 billion, in U.S. Treasury, agency, and municipal bonds in the three months ending March 31. According to Odaily, this marks the highest level since the second quarter of 2022. In February, the overnight index swap market indicated that traders initially expected the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates twice this year. However, following tensions between the U.S. and Israel impacting the situation in Iran, crude oil prices surged by approximately 50%, leading to increased inflation expectations and a shift in rate pricing towards a Federal Reserve rate hike.

💡 Trend is Your Best Ally in Trading From last night to this morning, the market gave a clear signal altcoins were pumping hard, following $BTC momentum 🚀 But instead of riding the trend (or staying patient), many traders chose to fight it by aggressively shorting coins like $BABY $LUNC , and $GENIUS — even as volume and hype kept rising. ⚠️ Here’s the reality: Thinking “price is too high, it can’t go higher” is one of the most expensive mindsets in trading. Markets don’t move based on what feels logical — they move on momentum, liquidity, and sentiment. We’ve seen this before: coins like RAVE made explosive moves (0.5 ➝ 28 USD). Anyone shorting without risk management didn’t stand a chance. 📊 Simple Rule: 👉 Trend is your friend 👉 Don’t short strong momentum blindly 👉 Always use stop-loss 👉 If it feels too risky — stay out 🔥 When RSI is sitting at extreme levels (80–90+), it’s not a signal to fight the trend — it’s a warning to be cautious and disciplined. Trade smart. Protect your capital. Let the market lead — not your emotions. #crypto #trading #Binance #BTC #RiskManagementMastery
