The daily ETF inflow/outflow reports for $BTC are still a major driver. How are you guys incorporating this into your short-term trading strategies? Are you waiting for confirmation post-report or trying to front-run the news based on sentiment?
I'm mostly watching for a few hours post-report to see if there's any sustained price action. Trying to front-run seems too risky given the volatility.
I look at the trend over several days rather than just the daily numbers. A consistent trend in either direction seems more reliable than a single day's report.
Are people really finding clear patterns? I feel like the impact is getting diluted as the market matures. Used to be more impactful.
I'm using the inflow/outflow as a secondary confirmation, more for gauging sentiment than direct trade signals. The market often moves before the official numbers are out.
Honestly, the ETF data feels like it's already priced in by the time it hits the reports. I'm not seeing consistent edges there for short-term trades.
It's a tricky one. I've tried front-running, but often the market does the opposite of what you'd expect. Might be better to just fade the initial reaction sometimes.
