Tonight is New Year's Eve (December 31), and the US market is set to release major economic data — initial jobless claims and the EIA crude oil inventory report are on the schedule. It may seem like routine operation, but there are hidden clues behind the numbers.
Particularly worth paying attention to is the crude oil inventory. The market expects a significant decrease of 867,000 barrels, a figure that is completely opposite to the trend of the past few weeks. Both bulls and bears are already engaged in fierce battles over this expected data. The correlation between economic data and the crypto market is increasing, and the linkage effect between the US dollar index and risk assets is no longer a secret.
On the last trading day of 2025, the release of such key data often triggers noticeable market fluctuations. You all know how sensitive BTC and other cryptocurrencies are to macroeconomic data, and the moment the data is released could very well be the golden window for swing trading. Prepare in advance, develop your trading ideas, and seize this year's closing opportunity.

867,000 barrels — this number just doesn't seem right; both bulls and bears are betting on a reversal.
On New Year's Eve, the data will definitely cause BTC to fluctuate; tonight is a good opportunity to earn a stable swing.
Oil inventories have dropped significantly? I don't believe it; past New Years have always been wild swings.
When the US dollar index moves, crypto follows suit. I've seen through this correlation long ago.
The data is about to come out, brothers. Get ready and don't get caught off guard.

86.7K barrels feels a bit suspicious, both bulls and bears have been secretly battling each other.
On New Year's Eve, still watching the market, my brothers really aren't resting.
Once the data is released, there will probably be another frenzy. We've already prepared to cut losses, haha.
When the dollar moves, BTC jumps along with it. It’s really a bit annoying.
The crude oil inventory shows an inverse trend? It seems like someone is lying in wait to harvest.
How are you guys operating now? Still daring to hold positions through the New Year?

New Year's Eve data, the reverse movement of oil inventories is quite interesting, bulls and bears are competing
The end-of-year trend must be watched closely, BTC has already sensed it, don't get crushed down
The expectation of 9.86 million barrels is a bit uncertain, I bet the data will disappoint
Every time like this is when retail investors get their fingers cut, beware of being trapped
Oil inventories plummeted? Feels like a reverse operation is coming
The US dollar index moves everything, still the same old story, risk assets are also swinging
The last wave of the year, to push or not to push, that's the question
Oh my, another night of watching the market, is this how the closing is supposed to be?
