$USELESS liquidity sweep **liquidity sweep** in trading happens when the price of a coin or asset quickly moves to a level where many stop-loss orders or pending orders (buy/sell) are placed, triggering them. These orders are often clustered at key support or resistance levels, like round numbers or recent highs/lows. Large players (like whales or institutions) may intentionally push the price to these levels to "sweep" or clear out this liquidity (execute these orders), allowing them to buy low or sell high before the price reverses.
**In simple words**: It’s when the market price suddenly moves to hit a bunch of stop-losses or pending orders, clearing them out, often before a big price move in the opposite direction. For example, if many traders set stop-losses just below a support level, a liquidity sweep might push the price down to trigger those stops, then bounce back up.
**How to use this in trading**:
- Watch key levels (support/resistance) on charts where stop-losses might cluster.
- Avoid placing stop-losses at obvious levels (e.g., exact round numbers like $0.10).
- For coins like #WLFI or #USELESS, check order books or volume spikes to spot potential sweeps.
- Manage risk by using smaller position sizes and setting stops away from crowded levels.
Always confirm price action and trends before acting, especially with volatile new coins.

Bitcoin BTC: Watching for Support and Accumulation📊 Bitcoin (BTC) has been pushing lower and is now appearing overextended to the downside. Recently, price has staged a deep correction that may be nearing exhaustion.
🔎 I’ll be watching closely to see if BTC can hold key support levels and potentially begin forming an accumulation base 🏗️.
📈 Should price confirm strength with a bullish break of market structure, that would signal a possible long opportunity 🚀. Until then, patience is required to let the setup fully develop.

BTC – Momentum Returns!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
📈BTC has been overall bullish trading within the rising broadening wedge marked in red.
This week, BTC has been retesting the lower bound of the wedge.
Moreover, the orange zone is a strong structure and previous ATH.
🏹 Thus, the highlighted blue circle is a strong area to look for buy setups as it is the intersection of the lower red trendline and orange structure.
📚 As per my trading style:
As #BTC approaches the blue circle zone, I will be looking for trend-following bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...)
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!
All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly!

22/09/25 Weekly OutlookLast weeks high: $117,904.04
Last weeks low: $114,383.99
Midpoint: $116,144.01
A very interesting start to the week to say the least! In the opening hours of this week BTC has plunged 3% to tag $112,000, this comes off the rejection of $117,500 key level post FOMC.
The FED cut interest rates by 25bps as was expected by most, the resulting rally failed to break $117,500 resistance and rejected back to the origin of the rally at the 0.25 line. The dip from the opening hours of this week is in my opinion continuation of this rejection level. It is clear the bulls still don't have the firepower to break the range and push on, the question this week is where will BTC find support?
For me there are some key levels, 1D 200 EMA is still an option at $106,000, the daily local how at $107,500 could provide double bottom support. The Monday close will provide more context to this move, should the reaction be minimal and the daily candle closes as it is now the September curse could continue.
This week I'll be closely monitoring how altcoins react to this move, I believe the general consensus is that altcoins will outperform BTC in Q4. Historically the final quarter of the year has provided some great returns over the years, however that does not necessarily mean that will be the case this time around. If it does happen this dip may provide some good entries.
Good luck this week everybody!
bitcoin's Situation, A Comprehensive Analysis !As you can see, the price has formed a triangle over the past 4 months, whose bullish or bearish nature will be determined after its breakout. The corrective Elliott waves(abc) are currently completing the final wave, which indicates that a potential price increase is on the way. Now, we must wait for the completion of corrective wave C .
BTC H&S IN PROGRESS. WATCH FOR BULLISH SIGNS AROUND $111.3KMorning folks,
So, everything has happened as we discussed last time. Minor H&S led us to the big one. And now price stands at the point, where it has to either start working or to fail. And for any trader, who would like to trade this pattern, it is a decision making moment.
Thus, drop your time frame to 15 min chart and watch for market reaction around 111.3K support. If we get any bullish patterns there, then it is possible to try. Conversely, if H&S will fail - BTC probably will drop down to 100K area.
Unfortunately currently I can't exactly tell whether this H&S will work or not, just because price has touched support level a few minutes ago. It needs time to show a reaction. Although fast drop is not good for bullish reversal pattern, but it not always leads to failure.
I mark this idea as "bullish" but with some advance and mostly due to its nature. For position taking we still need clear patterns on lower time frames.
Bitcoin - Will Bitcoin Continue to Fall?!Bitcoin is currently below the EMA50 and EMA200 on the four-hour timeframe and is in its descending channel. In the event of an upward correction towards the specified supply zones, it is possible to sell Bitcoin with a better risk-reward ratio.
It should be noted that there is a possibility of heavy fluctuations and shadows due to the movement of whales in the market and capital management in the cryptocurrency market will be more important. If the downward trend continues, we can buy within the demand range.
Since early September, Bitcoin has shown a steady upward trend, largely fueled by expectations of a Fed rate cut at the FOMC meeting and optimism about its potential impact. When the Federal Reserve finally delivered the long-anticipated 0.25% rate reduction, Bitcoin declined by only about 1%. While the crypto market currently appears somewhat lackluster, the limited reaction can be viewed as a textbook example of the “buy the rumor, sell the news” dynamic.
The overall cryptocurrency market capitalization remains above $4 trillion. According to CoinMarketCap data, the average performance of the top 20 cryptocurrencies was negative 0.43% during the past week. Meanwhile, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index stands at a neutral level of 51, down six points from last week, moving away from the “greed” zone.
Fed Chair Jerome Powell characterized the rate cut as “risk management” rather than a measure to support a weak economy. This framing may explain the subdued market reaction. Given that markets had already priced in a 96% probability of a 0.25% cut before the official announcement, traders effectively executed the classic playbook of buying the rumor and selling the news.
The political angle of the decision also added uncertainty. Steven Miran, the newly appointed Fed member and former economic adviser to Trump, cast the only dissenting vote, advocating for a larger 0.5% cut instead of the 0.25% reduction.
A chart circulating in the market highlights potential liquidation zones. Prices below spot indicate long positions at risk of liquidation, while prices above spot point to short liquidations. At present, the Max Pain level for longs sits at $112.7K, while the Max Pain level for shorts is at $121.6K, with spot Bitcoin trading around $117.2K. This illustrates the market’s fragile balance—downward movement could trigger long liquidations, whereas an upward breakout may unleash a wave of short squeezes toward recent highs.
Michael Saylor hinted at possible additional purchases, remarking: “The orange dots are moving upward.” He also described Bitcoin as a calm, fair, and impartial tool for resolving conflicts among people.
Meanwhile, last week the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved new general standards that pave the way for broad-scale issuance of crypto-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs). These regulations allow exchanges such as NYSE, Nasdaq, and Cboe to list spot market crypto ETFs without case-by-case reviews.
As a result, the approval timeline for ETFs has been shortened from over 240 days to around 75 days, greatly simplifying the process for asset managers. Dozens of new ETFs for cryptocurrencies like Solana, Ripple (XRP), and Dogecoin are expected to launch starting in October. This development effectively ends a decade-long case-by-case review process that dates back to the first Bitcoin ETF application in 2013.
While the Trump administration supported progressive crypto regulation, this approach contrasts with the slower regulatory stance seen under Biden. Despite the regulatory breakthrough, firms stress that legal work, marketing efforts, and support services are still required to successfully launch these ETFs.
BTC Looks Bearish (12H)From the point marked as **Start** on the chart, it seemed that a bullish phase had begun on Bitcoin. This bullish phase formed a triangle, and now we are at the end of this triangle.
With a pullback to the red zone, a further drop could occur. The main target of this bearish move appears to be the 88K channel.
This view remains valid unless a daily candle closes above the invalidation level.
For risk management, please don't forget stop loss and capital management
When we reach the first target, save some profit and then change the stop to entry

BITCOIN Update: Stay Alert (4H)This analysis is an update of the analysis you see in the "Related publications" section
Read the analysis carefully
Given the loss of the trendline, Bitcoin stalling, and decreasing momentum, the previous Bitcoin analysis needed to be updated.
If Bitcoin fails to make a valid breakout above the yellow line at $116,520 and does not sustain above it, a bearish scenario will emerge, and the price will drop significantly
A bullish outlook toward the supply zone shown on the chart above is only valid if Bitcoin executes a confirmed breakout above $116,520.
So stay alert and follow the chart closely.
For risk management, please don't forget stop loss and capital management

Key PRZ Ahead for Bitcoin – Bounce or Breakdown?Bitcoin ( BINANCE:BTCUSDT ) moved as I expected in my previous idea and rose to the Resistance zone($118,580-$117,460) .
First of all, let me say that this is a short-term Bitcoin analysis .
Bitcoin is filling the CME Gap($116,115-$115,860) and is moving near the Support zone($116,900-$115,730) [, Cumulative Long Liquidation Leverage($115,555-$114,424) , Potential Reversal Zone(PRZ) , and the lower line of the ascending channel .
In terms of Elliott Wave theory , Bitcoin appears to be completing a wave C of the Expanding Flat(ABC/3-3-5) .
I expect Bitcoin to rise to at least $116,910 if it even manages to break the ascending channel.
Second Target: $117,760
Stop Loss(SL): $$115,300
Cumulative Short Liquidation Leverage: $118,965-$117,906

$Aster Long idea ! up 100% perday ! can see other rally ?$ASTER is currently trading in a range with some deviation. As long as we hold above the 15-min and 4-hour FVG, the outlook remains positive. Could we see a new ATH? This is just my perspective—exercise caution! If you decide to enter, always use a stop loss, as $ASTER can be a volatile coin. Stay safe and trade smart!

HYPE Swing Long IdeaHYPE Swing Long Idea
📊 Market Sentiment
FED has resumed its rate-cutting cycle, starting with a 0.25% cut in September, with two more 0.25% cuts expected in the coming months. Additionally, institutional liquidity inflows have accelerated as the U.S. officially adopts crypto as part of its reserves. While inflation remains elevated, the weakening labor market is forcing the FED to ease, driving more capital into risk-on assets.
📈 Technical Analysis
Price broke the HTF Key Level and closed above, leading to price discovery.
It is also supported by the HTF Bullish Trendline.
Currently, price is retracing from its discovery highs.
📌 Game Plan
1-Retest of HTF Key Level at $50
2-Retest of HTF Bullish Trendline
3-Possible retrace into Fibonacci EQ (discount zone) at $47.55
🎯 Setup Trigger
• 4H break of structure after retest
• Alternative: Daily close back above HTF Bullish Trendline in case of deviation (deviation entry method)
📋 Trade Management
Stoploss: Below the 4H swing low that breaks structure
Target: $59.5 (ATH)
Carrying 25% runner with stop at breakeven for extended gains

BTC.D (Dominance at Critical Fibonacci Confluence) 2025 Weekly
**Summary:**
Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) is testing a major Fibonacci confluence near the 66% level. This zone historically acts as a major pivot and may signal either a continued dominance rally or a potential reversal setting the stage for altseason. We use three layered Fibonacci retracements to outline dominant trend zones, key resistances, and projected targets.
**Chart Context:**
This chart uses **three distinct Fibonacci retracements** to map the historical and projected behavior of BTC dominance:
1. **Primary Fib** (100% to 0%): Captures the macro move from BTC.D \~100% down to its 0% level at \~0%, which aligns with the first altseason (2018–2019).
2. **Secondary Fib** (100% to 38.88%): Maps the first bearish wave to identify potential recovery levels. BTC.D retraced up to the 61.8% (\~73.68%) but failed to break further.
3. **Third or the Current Fib** (73.68% to 38.88%): Maps the latest bearish fall in BTC.D. As of now, BTC.D is hovering at the 78.6% retracement level of this move, indicating heavy resistance.
**Key Technical Observations:**
* **1st TP (Resistance):** 66% — Strong Fibonacci confluence zone:
* Fib2 48.6% ≈ Fib3 78.6%
* Major reversal zone historically
* **2nd TP (Support):** 52.25% — Multi-Fib confluence:
* Fib1 48.6%, Fib2 61.8%, Fib3 38.2%
* **3rd TP (Ultimate Support):** 38.88% — Historical BTC.D bottom, aligned with the first altseason.
* Intermediate Fibonacci confluences between 48%–60% serve as layered support during decline phases.
**Indicators:**
* No external indicators used; pure multi-frame Fibonacci confluence.
* Price action structure and historical patterns highlight potential market rotation zones.
**Fundamental Context:**
The current phase of the market reflects increasing speculative activity in altcoins while Bitcoin consolidates. Historically, high BTC.D correlates with Bitcoin-led rallies, while a sharp drop often triggers altseason.
* Growing inflows into ETH, SOL, and possible now XRP, and mid-cap alts suggest capital rotation.
* If BTC.D faces rejection from 66%, the market could enter a new altseason phase.
* Macro tailwinds (e.g., easing monetary policy, risk-on sentiment) support altcoin performance in the medium term.
**Philosophical or Narrative View:**
BTC.D acts as a barometer of market risk preference. As confidence expands beyond Bitcoin, money flows into altcoins—like tributaries branching off the main river. The rejection from major confluences signals this psychological shift, marking phases of creative decentralization.
**Related Reference Charts:**
* TOTAL3 Fibonacci Setup (Altcoin market excluding BTC & ETH):
* TOTAL2 Correction Probabilities:
**Bias & Strategy Implication:**
* **Primary Bias:** Bearish rejection from 66% followed by correction to 52% and potentially 38.88%.
* **Alternative Scenario:** Brief breach above 66% before reversal.
* Traders may consider rotating into altcoin exposure if BTC.D confirms reversal at the confluence zone.
**Time Horizon:**
* Mid to Long Term (1–6 months outlook)
* Weekly timeframe tracking
**Notes & Disclaimers:**
* This analysis is for educational purposes. Market conditions may evolve rapidly.
* Use proper risk management when acting on dominance signals.
BTC 1H Analysis - Key Triggers Ahead | Day 44😃 Hey , how's it going ? Come over here — Winter got something for you!
⏰ We’re analyzing BTC on the 1-Hour timeframe.
👀 On the 1-hour timeframe for Bitcoin, after testing the $115,123 support level, price entered a ranging zone during the holiday session. A breakout above or below this range could give us a long or short setup. Although Bitcoin was expected to make a strong upward move (which it did), it then faced seller pressure.
🧮 Looking at the RSI oscillator, BTC is consolidating around the 50 zone and is now close to the key 40 support level. Losing this level could shift momentum toward selling. On the upside, the 70 zone remains important: if RSI breaks above it, Bitcoin can enter overbought territory and push higher.
🕯 Currently, candle size and volume remain in range, so we’ll need to wait for the new weekly open to see where Bitcoin decides to move.
🧠 In my view, it’s better not to take a position directly on BTC. As mentioned earlier, focusing on altcoins could be more profitable — if Bitcoin corrects, we can still catch strong entries on alts.
❤️ Disclaimer : This analysis is purely based on my personal opinion and I only trade if the stated triggers are activated .
Bitcoin –> Inverse Head & ShouldersHello guys!
On the 4H chart, Bitcoin completed an inverse Head & Shoulders.
The measured target of the pattern lies near $118K, aligning with a strong resistance zone.
This level should be watched closely, as it may act as a potential reversal area.
If price rejects around $118K, we could see a pullback towards $115K – $114K.
A confirmed breakout above $118K with volume would invalidate the reversal scenario and open the way for higher levels.
Key zones:
🎯 Target / Resistance: $117.5K – $118K
Possible Reversal Zone: $118K
📉 Support: $115K – $114K
