CPI m/m (Consumer Price Index) — September 11, 2026

What it is

CPI measures monthly US consumer inflation. Hot CPI = Fed leans hawkish (bearish for crypto). Cool CPI = rate-cut hopes rise (bullish for crypto). Often the highest-volatility macro day of the month for BTC.

How to trade it

• Reduce position size 1 hour before the release.
• Watch BTC for direction, then rotate to high-beta alts on confirmation.
• Avoid market orders the first 60 seconds — slippage is brutal.
• Use stop-loss in case the move reverses (initial spike often fades within 15 min).
