Handling Fed Minutes post-release?

Still getting my head around how seasoned traders approach the FOMC Minutes. I understand the immediate reaction can be whipsaw, but I'm curious about the strategy after the initial noise. Are you mostly looking for confirmations of previous statements, or trying to piece together a new narrative on rates, say for $DXY? I tend to sit out the release entirely, then struggle to interpret the market's sustained reaction over the next few hours without getting caught in head-fakes. What's the approach to extracting actionable info once the dust settles?

ปกติผมก็รอดูสถานการณ์หลัง release เหมือนกันครับ เพราะช่วงแรกผันผวนเกินไปที่จะเทรดจริงจัง ส่วนใหญ่จะใช้เวลาพยายามจับทิศทางว่า Fed มองเรื่องเงินเฟ้อยังไง และจะส่งผลต่อการปรับขึ้นดอกเบี้ยในอนาคตยังไงมากกว่าครับ

After the initial volatility, I usually just check to see if anything truly new was hinted at. Most of the time, it's just reaffirming what's already been priced in, so the sustained moves are often just extensions of existing trends.

I generally follow the 'sit it out' strategy too; my trading account thanks me later. After the initial scramble, I'm usually looking for how the market re-prices probabilities for future rate moves. The DXY usually gives a decent read on that sentiment.
