BTC to Retrace to Key Fibonacci level after Heavy Selloff Price experienced a sharp and aggressive selloff and now, after a strong rejection from key level, the market is consolidating, showing early signs of stabilization as sellers begin to lose momentum. If buyers can defend this area and push price higher, the next logical target lies around the Fibonacci 0.5–0.618 retracement zone, aligning with the 117,000 - 119,000 level, a key area where sellers may step back in.

Will EU go up this time?Hi traders, Last week EU started with a gap down and dropped to take the lower liquidity. Next week we could see price come into the lower Daily FVG and reverse from there. It still looks like that the downmove is corrective and this pair goes up one more time to finish a big ending diagonal into the Weekly FVG. Let's see what the market does and react. Trade idea: Wait for price come into the Daily FVG and reverse. After an impulse wave up and a correction down, look for a change in orderflow to bullish on a lower time frame to trade longs. If you want to learn more about trading with FVG's, liquidity sweeps and Elliott wavecount and patterns, then make sure to follow me. This shared post is only my point of view on what could be the next move in this pair based on my technical analysis. Don't be emotional, just trade your plan! Eduwave

Qqq Been awhile since I went over Tech.. Let's start off with a bigger picture Zooming out you can see that we've tagged our long term resistance since sept Zooming in but staying on the weekly You'll notice the reversal weekly bearish engulfing and also the volume.. The candle alone is is nasty, but that volume is a bad. The most volume we've seen since april rebound and it's bearish.. So with that being I think are headed back to 558 minimum. And also I think this moves happens before November 1st. Nov to late Dec normally isn't to kind to bears and also we would be in the middle of tech earnings so I don't like to short the market during bullish Seasonality + earnings season. So Let me show you my steps one by one how I come up with my tech homework/trades Step one Identify where your Moving averages Price action Fib levels are Start on daily time frame I like to use my 20/50ma The 20ma resistance will be 599-600 The 50ma support will be 582 Next I add the fib levels on my chart starting from all time high and going back lower to that launch pad at 558.. some people go back further and lower than 558 but those levels aren't ACTIONABLE for day trading or swinging weeklies. I need to know where proce can go for the next 3 sessions or next 3% So fib levels confirm the moving average levels As you can see 601 .786 fib level will match up closely with the 599 20sma Resistance The 579 .382 will match nicely with the 50sma When I say match , what I mean is let's say I short Qqq on a rebound at 599, I would be will to add another put all the way up to its next resistance at 601 if needed and then I could place a 20% loss behind 601. Similar to if I was to buy calls at 582 50sma for a nice bounce, I would be willing to add more calls all the down to 579 gap close or .382 fib with a 20% stop below that.. This method of positioning gives you a back up plan and prevents paper hand trading. Lastly let's look at just price action and trend lines.. For that we'll have to go down the hourly time frame (2hour chart) Some people would argue upon seeing this trendline retest that it's a great buy area, and I would agree short term it may bounce but being up at the weekly trendline I think this summer uptrend gives way this week or next. 1hour chart This is where I just look at price action and volume. I look for areas with a lot of traffic and heavy volume . Going into next week you can see its alot of support at 588 and I circled in green the previous volume that came into that area. Overhead resistance will be the 200sma at 592 and support at 588.. over 593 and 596 comes but I expect Choppy early on between 588-592. For a short I would only look for it below 586.00 , I know 588 is support but this is why fib levels are important for me. 586 is fib support so unless it breaks that then you may get a bear trap dip to 587 then launch back up.. only bearish below 586!!!!!!! What I think will happen this week is a bounce back to 596 minimum and 600 max before we head lower, so unless we gap down below 586 then the move is likely to be upwards early on. If the market gaps up early Monday then wait for a pullback or fizzle out to by calls for a Tues or Wed pop higher. I think we could see a H&S play out if price pushes back to 600 But first we need a pop, in terms of day trading you never want to open short when you see the indexes hourly RSI and Bollingerband oversold. With the exception off thee Qqq idea .. the other trade I like is NASDAQ:NVDA calls for a pop back to 190 Pullback to retest rectangle breakout here at 184.00. I like calls above 185, target 190. Over 190 and 194 comes but have a tight stop over 189 incase it can't go higher. Entry Above 185 Stop loss Below 183.50 Target 190 Catch you all later , my apologies if I'm not too responsive or active lately; I've been busy. In this post I tried to show you how I come up with my idea/ conviction. I use this method on every stock I chart and it actually only takes me 10mins max to chart something and come up with a Tradeable strategy. You have to come up with a method/strategy in trading and charting, then apply this method every day.. you should be charting atleast 3 stocks a day with this method because that's the only way you will become proficient enough to make it. And staring at a chart because you are in a trade doesn't count. This trading and charting thing is more about repetitive discipline than intelligence. If you can't find 30mins a day to fine tune your charting craft then it will be difficult staying in this game

The History of War, Gold, Fiat, and Equities Gold vs. Equities — The 45-Year Cycle and a Pending Monetary Reset The interplay of war, gold, fiat money, and equities has long been a barometer of real wealth and economic stability. A recurring pattern emerges across modern history: approximately 45-year intervals when gold strengthens relative to equities. From the Panic of 1893 to the present, these cycles have coincided with major monetary shifts and geopolitical shocks. With a broadening 100-year pattern, rising geopolitical tension, and roughly $300 trillion in global debt, a monetary reset by the early 2030s is plausibly on the horizon. The 45-Year Cycle — Gold’s Strength at Equity Troughs The pattern’s first trough is traced to 1896, when William Jennings Bryan’s “Cross of Gold” speech preceded the Gold Standard Act of 1900. Equities were weak after the Panic of 1893, and gold gained prominence. Thirteen years later, the Federal Reserve would be created. More on the 45-year cycle later. The 50-Year Jubilee Cycle The Torah’s 50-year Jubilee cycle, as outlined in Leviticus 25:8–12, is a profound economic and social reset that follows seven 7-year Shemitah cycles, totaling 49 years, with the 50th year designated as the Jubilee. Each Shemitah cycle concludes with a sabbatical year (year 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49), during which the land rests, debts are released, and economic imbalances are addressed (Leviticus 25:1–7). The Jubilee, occurring in the 50th year, amplifies this reset by mandating the return of ancestral lands, freeing of slaves, and further debt forgiveness, symbolizing a divine restoration of societal equity. While built on the 49-year framework of seven Shemitahs, the 50th year stands distinct, marking a transformative culmination rather than a simple extension of the Shemitah cycle. The five-year Jubilee windows highlighted at the base of the chart compliment the 45-year cycles previously noted. The 4 year Jubilee windows are projected from the roaring 20s peak in 1929 and the 1932 bear market low four years later. The next Jubilee window is scheduled to occur some time between 2029 and 2031. Returning to History and the 45-Year Cycles: The Panic of 1907 and the Fed The Panic of 1907 was a severe crisis, with bank runs, failing trust companies, and a liquidity crunch centered in New York. The collapse of copper speculators (F. Augustus Heinze and Charles W. Morse) triggered runs on institutions like the Knickerbocker Trust. Private bankers led by J.P. Morgan injected liquidity (over $25 million) to stabilize the system. The shock exposed the absence of a lender of last resort and precipitated reforms. Congress responded with the Aldrich–Vreeland Act (1908) and the National Monetary Commission, whose 1911 report recommended a central bank to supply “elastic currency.” After debate and hearings, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act on December 23, 1913, creating a decentralized central bank with 12 regional banks. Some alternative accounts (e.g., The Creature from Jekyll Island) argue that the panic was exploited to centralize financial control. Mainstream history, however, treats the panic as the genuine catalyst for reform. Whatever the intent, the Fed’s creation shifted the tools available to manage crises—and, over time, central banks have played an instrumental role in financing wars and expanding Fiat currency. The Fed and World War I World War I began in Europe in 1914 (U.S. entry in 1917). The Fed began operations in November 1914 and later supported wartime financing by: Marketing Liberty Bonds (~$21.5 billion raised, 1917–1919). Providing low-interest loans to banks buying Treasury securities (via 1916-era amendments). Expanding the money supply, which contributed to wartime inflation. Although the Fed was created primarily to prevent panics and stabilize banking, its early role in war finance shifted expectations about central banking’s functions. From Confiscation to Bretton Woods to the Nixon Shock In 1933, during the Great Depression, the U.S. effectively nationalized gold—private ownership was outlawed, and the official price was later reset at $35/oz by the Gold Reserve Act of 1934. Private ownership remained restricted until President Ford legalized it again in 1974. World War II and the Bretton Woods Agreement (1944) cemented gold’s role: the dollar became the anchor of the system, and other currencies pegged to it. That status persisted until August 15, 1971, when President Nixon suspended dollar-gold convertibility—the “Nixon Shock”—moving the world toward fiat currencies. The Petrodollar and Post-1971 Arrangements After 1971, the U.S. worked to preserve dollar demand. The petrodollar system emerged in the early 1970s: following the 1973 oil shock, a U.S.–Saudi understanding (1974) helped ensure oil continued to be priced in dollars and that oil revenues were recycled into U.S. Treasuries—supporting the dollar’s global role despite its fiat status. Devaluations, Floating Rates, and the End of Bretton Woods Two formal “devaluations” followed the Nixon Shock: Smithsonian Agreement (Dec 18, 1971): Raised the official gold price from $35 to $38/oz (an 8.57% change) as a stopgap attempt to stabilize fixed rates without restoring convertibility. It widened exchange banding but proved unsustainable. On February 12, 1973, the official gold price was revalued to $42.22/oz (roughly a 10% change), a symbolic acknowledgment that Bretton Woods was collapsing. By March 1973, major economies had effectively moved to floating exchange rates, and market gold prices surged. These moves were reactive attempts to adjust the dollar’s value amid trade deficits, inflation, and speculative pressures. They ultimately ushered in a fiat era, where market forces, not official pegs, set the price of gold. Triffin’s Dilemma — Then and Now Triffin’s Dilemma describes the structural tension faced by a reserve currency issuer: it must supply enough currency to ensure global liquidity (running deficits) while risking domestic instability and a loss of confidence. Britain faced this under the gold standard; the U.S. faced it under Bretton Woods and again after 1971, albeit in a different form. Modern manifestations include inflation, persistent fiscal and external deficits, and mounting debt. International policy coordination (e.g., the Plaza and Louvre Accords) repeatedly tried—and only partially succeeded—to manage these tensions. The Plaza (1985) and Louvre (1987) Accords Plaza Accord (Sept 22, 1985): G5 nations coordinated to depreciate the dollar (it had appreciated ~50% since 1980). The goal was to ease U.S. trade imbalances. The dollar fell substantially vs. the yen and mark by 1987. Louvre Accord (Feb 22, 1987): G6 sought to stabilize the dollar after its rapid decline following the Plaza Accord, setting informal target zones and coordinating intervention. It temporarily checked volatility but did not solve underlying imbalances. Both accords illustrate the extreme difficulty in balancing global liquidity needs with domestic economic health in a fiat system. De-industrialization, Bubbles, and the Broadening Pattern Orthodox history would argue that U.S. de-industrialization in the 1990s was rational at the time. Globalization and cost arbitrage provided short-term benefits, but they increased trade deficits, foreign dependency, and robbed the middle class of high-paying jobs. That loss of capacity heightens vulnerability to dollar shocks and complicates any re-industrialization efforts today. Measured in gold, equities have experienced expanding ranges: Equity peaks (1929, 1967, 1999) were followed by troughs where gold outperformed (1896, 1941, 1980/86). Gold peaked in 1980, even though the cyclical trough in the broader pattern was nearer 1986—showing that cycles can shift. The dot-com peak (1999) marked a secular low for gold relative to equities. The ensuing crashes, 9/11, and the War in Afghanistan, followed by the 2008–2009 Financial Crisis (GFC), moved markets profoundly—both nominally and in terms of gold. From 1999, relative equity values fell until a trough around 2011 (coinciding with the European debt crisis). Quantitative easing and policy responses (2010 onward) restored growth, but frailties remained (e.g., repo market stress in 2018). COVID produced another shock; aggressive fiscal and monetary responses engineered a V-shaped asset recovery but also higher inflation. Relative to gold, equities peaked in 1999 and have trended lower since. As nominal stock prices register all-time-highs in dollars—fueled by AI and other themes—equities are historically overvalued. When priced against gold, the apparent bubble in nominal terms looks more like an extended bear market ready for its next down-leg. The Broadening Pattern and the Next Trough A broadening pattern illustrates the gold equity ratio range expanding with each major peak and trough. If we accept a roughly 45-year rhythm from the 1980/86 period, the next cyclical trough may fall between 2025 and 2031, with 2031 a focal point. Whether this manifests as a runaway gold price, a sharp equity collapse, or both remains uncertain. If a sovereign-debt crisis or major war escalates, changes could accelerate—some scenarios even speculate about a negotiated new monetary framework (e.g., “Mar-A-Lago Accords”) in the next 5–15 years. Geopolitics and the $300 Trillion Debt Geopolitical tension compounds financial stress. The Russia-Ukraine war, plausibly the start of World War III, NATO involvement, and nuclear saber-rattling evoke systemic risk. Global debt—estimated at around $300 trillion (over 300% of GDP per the Institute of International Finance)—is unsustainable. U.S. public debt (~$38 trillion) now carries interest costs comparable to defense spending. Central bank money creation to service debt erodes confidence in fiat currencies and boosts demand for gold. Historical monetary resets (Bretton Woods, Nixon Shock) followed similar pressures of debt and conflict. A modern reset could push gold well beyond current records—potentially into the high thousands or five-figure territory if confidence collapses. Implications of a Pending Monetary Reset A reset might take various forms: A partial return to a gold-linked standard, perhaps supplemented by tokenized/digital assets. Forced debt restructuring or coordinated global defaults. Rapid adoption of digital currencies (including state-issued tokens—CBDCs) as part of a new settlement architecture. Given Triffin’s Dilemma, inflated financial assets, and interconnected global linkages, a modern reset could be far larger in scale and speed than past adjustments. Assets, trade, and supply chains are far larger and more intertwined than in 1971, increasing contagion risk. Practical takeaway: investors should consider gold’s role in portfolios; policymakers must confront debt sustainability or risk a market-driven reckoning that could disrupt global finance. Conclusion The Torah's 50-year Jubilee, the 45-year cycle and the century-long broadening pattern suggest we are approaching a structural turning point. Triffin’s Dilemma, decades of accumulated imbalances, de-industrialization, and escalating geopolitical risk suggest a monetary reset is plausible between 2030 and 2035—possibly sooner under severe stress. A modern reset would be more disruptive than past episodes because today’s global economy is larger, more integrated, and technologically complex. The question is not only whether such a reset will occur, but how policymakers and markets will manage it. The stakes—global financial stability and the relative value of fiat versus real assets—could not be higher.

BITCOIN – THE REAL REASON BEHIND THE FALL When I started trading someone told me something I’ll never forget: “If you can predict tomorrow’s newspaper headline, you understand the market.” He didn’t mean I should chase news. He meant I should read structure so well that I know what kind of headline the market is already writing, before the mass even see it. And now, looking around online, I see the complete opposite. Everywhere you look, there’s another “confluencer” talking about crypto with big words and zero understanding. People selling dreams, memberships, and indicators, while they don’t even know what open interest or CVD means. I’m not here to sell anything. I’m here to help people actually learn how to read data and see through the noise. Because what most of these so-called experts call “analysis” is just emotional guessing wrapped in confidence. What I called and what happened Last week I posted my “Big Dump” thesis. I said Bitcoin would swing fail above the highs, then drop into the 104K region. That is exactly what happened. Price ran the sweep into 126K, trapped the late buyers, and dumped straight into 104K. People blamed tariffs. The tariff headline was the spark. The fuel was crypto’s own positioning. Why the structure was ready to snap Before the crash, the data told the story clearly. Stablecoin OI went from 257K to 285K contracts (+10.9%). That is new leveraged exposure. Coin-margined OI dropped during the breakout, then rose again near the highs. Shorts were fading strength. Spot CVD stayed flat to slightly negative. Real buyers were missing. The long/short ratio fell from 2.05 to 1.02 even while price kept climbing. That’s what distribution looks like. Buyers on leverage pushing price up while stronger hands sell into them. No real spot demand, just futures exposure. You don’t need a macro event to fall. You only need a reason for those leveraged buyers to stop bidding. Think of it like a crowded elevator. Everyone keeps piling in as it moves up, feeling safe because it hasn’t stopped yet. But the moment one person hesitates, the weight shifts. When the next person panics, the whole thing drops. That’s what happens when a market is driven by leverage instead of conviction. You don’t need bad news, you just need hesitation. Look back at similar events. In May 2021, funding rates were insane, perps overloaded, and spot volume thin. Elon Musk tweeted about Bitcoin’s energy use. That tweet didn’t cause the dump. It just made leveraged longs pause. The bids disappeared and the cascade started. In August 2023, Evergrande headlines hit. Bitcoin was sitting at resistance with flat spot CVD and rising OI. Equities wobbled, crypto longs hesitated, and the structure collapsed within hours. In March 2020, when COVID panic hit, Bitcoin had already been stretched thin. Funding was high, leverage was heavy, and liquidity was weak. The virus didn’t break the market, leverage did. Leverage creates confidence until it doesn’t. Price doesn’t fall because people start selling. It falls because nobody steps in to buy. Headlines decide when the drop starts. Structure decides how far it goes. Why 104K was my first target I didn’t pick 104K out of thin air. That level was built on confluence. 1) AVWAP from the April 7 auction That swing low kicked off with massive volume. When a move starts with that kind of participation, the anchored VWAP becomes a key reference for institutional flow. It represents the average cost of that whole auction, and when extended forward, it acts as a dynamic area where liquidity and algorithms interact. That blue AVWAP line from April has been running right through the 104K region. It’s not that price revisited that auction, it’s that the anchored VWAP from that event still marks the fair value area for that entire move.When price traded back down into that region, it met that same volume-weighted anchor, creating a major confluence zone that algos and larger players watch closely. 2) The June 22 breakout left an LVN A new auction started on June 22 and pushed higher, leaving a Low Volume Node behind. An LVN is a thin zone on the volume profile where the market moved quickly with little trade. Markets often revisit these thin areas later to find balance or test unfinished business. 3) HTF Fibonacci cluster Multiple higher timeframe Fibonacci retracements and extensions overlapped near the same 104K area. When several fib levels align with structure, that’s a strong confluence zone watched by both human traders and algorithms. The 104K region was where the AVWAP line, LVN, and fib cluster all met. That’s not a random target. It’s a structurally defined area where liquidity concentrates and where markets tend to react sharply. And that’s exactly what happened. The spark versus the structure The tariff headline didn’t cause the drop. It triggered it. The structure was already unstable. Leverage was maxed. Spot demand was flat. Funding was positive and rising. When the tariff news hit, traditional markets pulled back and crypto followed instantly. It wasn’t correlation, it was liquidity contagion. Traders managing multiple books de-risk across assets when volatility spikes. That creates a gap in liquidity. When the bids vanish, the market falls into the first real pool of resting orders — in this case, the 104K zone. You saw the same mechanics during the March 2020 crash and the 2021 deleverage. External shocks trigger internal liquidation cascades. That’s why saying “this had nothing to do with crypto is completely wrong. This had everything to do with crypto. It’s like blaming the thunder for breaking a window when the glass was already cracked. Or saying the iceberg sank the Titanic when the captain was already steering through a sea of warnings. Crypto was structurally weak. Leverage was stretched, spot demand was gone, and funding was positive. When the headline hit, it didn’t cause the collapse. It just gave the market permission to do what it was already set up to do — unwind. Crypto is built on leverage. Perpetual futures dominate volume. Stablecoin collateral drives exposure. When external risk events change funding conditions or risk appetite, the crypto market reacts instantly because its structure is fragile by design. Example: When yields spike, the dollar strengthens and funding costs rise. Leveraged longs become more expensive to hold, so traders unwind positions. When equities dump, cross-asset desks reduce risk globally, which pulls liquidity out of crypto perps too. Intermarket correlation always matters. Macro sets the mood. But the speed and violence of crypto moves always come from leverage inside the system. How you can spot it next time Compare Spot CVD vs Stablecoin CVD. If stablecoin CVD rises while spot stays flat or negative, the rally is leverage-driven. Track Open Interest vs Price. Both rising together usually means exposure is building. Confirm with spot flow. Watch the Long/Short ratio. If it drops while price rises, shorts are entering and the move may be getting absorbed. Anchor VWAPs to real pivots like swing lows, breakouts, or liquidation spikes. Those levels attract institutional flow. Study Volume Profiles. LVNs are thin and often retested. HVNs are balance zones that attract price. Map HTF fib clusters for confluence. Reactions are stronger when multiple timeframes agree. Note single prints and thin brackets on TPO or volume profiles. These often act as magnets. When these factors line up, you don’t need to predict headlines. You’ll already most likely know which headline will break the market. TLDR The rally was leverage-driven: Stablecoin OI up 10.9%, Spot CVD flat, Long/Short ratio down from 2.05 to 1.02 The swing fail at 126K was the final liquidity grab 104K was the target due to AVWAP + LVN + HTF fib cluster The tariff headline was the spark, not the cause The crash was caused by leverage and missing spot demand Crypto didn’t fall because of politics. It fell because the market was already begging for an excuse to reset. The data showed it clearly weeks before the drop. If this helped you see the market a little clearer or made you think differently about how price really moves, please leave a like and drop a reaction. It keeps me motivated to keep posting real analysis, not the copy-paste bullshit hype that floods your feed every day. Check the Order Flow Data from 6 October here: ibb.co

The Pullback Playbook: Buy the Dip or Bail Out?Markets don’t go up in straight lines. Even the strongest trends pause, retrace, and test your conviction. These pauses are called pullbacks and they can either be healthy breathers before the next leg higher or the first cracks in a trend about to fall apart. The challenge for traders is knowing the difference. 📉 What Exactly Is a Pullback? Think of a pullback as a temporary trend halt, not necessarily a crash. The price moves against the prevailing trend for a short period, testing support levels or shaking out weak hands before deciding where to go next. They’re common, normal, and — if managed right — they’re opportunities rather than threats. But here’s where it gets tricky: not all pullbacks are trend halts. Some are the start of a flat-out reversal. And unless you’re comfortable holding through a potential nosedive, you need skills and tools to tell which is which. 🧐 Pullbacks vs. Trend Reversals So how do know if you’re looking at a pullback or a trend reversal? The main differentiating factor is the length of the move. The healthy pullback looks orderly — modest in size, controlled in volume, and often retracing to familiar moving averages or support zones. A healthy pullback might retrace 3-5% in a bull run, testing the 20- or 50-day moving average before bouncing higher. A trend reversal barrels through multiple support levels in days, erasing weeks of gains. It’s often sharper, louder, and driven by news or panic. Signs of a healthy pullback include: • Price holding above key moving averages (20, 50-day. Some stretch to the 100-day but these tend to be rare — it’s more likely a trend reversal by then). • Volume shrinking on the way down, then swelling on the rebound. • Oscillators like RSI cooling off from overbought territory without plunging into oversold. Trend reversals look more like: • Breaks of multiple support levels in one go. • Heavy, accelerating sell volume. • Headlines driving panic: tariffs, central bank surprises, data releases from the Economic calendar , crypto exchange blowups, or noise coming from the Earnings calendar . 📊 Technical Tools to Judge the Dip Charts can’t predict the future, but they can help you gauge probabilities. Pullbacks often line up with Fibonacci retracements, moving averages, or horizontal support and resistance levels. • Moving Averages : If price pulls back to the 50-day and holds, that’s often a green light for trend continuation. If it slices straight through the 100-day? Not so healthy. • Trendlines : Respecting the line = confidence. Breaking it = trouble. • Volume : Low-volume pullbacks suggest sellers aren’t that committed. High-volume dumps are red flags. None of these are crystal balls. But together, they give you a framework to avoid buying every dip. 🏄‍♂️ The Psychology of Buying the Dip Why do traders love dips? Because everyone wants a discount. A pullback offers a chance to jump on a trend at a better price, and social media culture has turned “buy the dip” into a meme strategy. But memes don’t pay the bills when a dip turns into a crater. The psychology works both ways: • Optimists see dips as golden tickets. • Pessimists see them as traps. • Realists know both can be true, depending on the setup. Being aware of your own bias — whether you lean toward buying too early or panicking too soon — is half the battle. 🔄 Asymmetric Risk and the Smart Bet Here’s where it gets interesting. You don’t need to be right all the time if your risk-reward ratio is skewed in your favor. A tight stop and a wide target can mean one win cancels out several small losses. Imagine risking 1% to potentially make 10%. Even if you’re wrong most of the time, the math can work. Pullbacks are prime territory for asymmetric setups: smart, thought-out entries, clear invalidation points (below support, trendline breaks), and attractive upside if the trend resumes. This doesn’t mean chasing every dip. A pullback can wipe your position clean if you’ve placed your stop loss a little too close, a little too early. ⏳ Timing Matters The biggest mistake with pullbacks is trying to catch the exact bottom. Traders love to brag about nailing the wick, but most who try end up paying for it. Smarter is to wait for confirmation — a bounce, a reversal candle, a break back above a short-term moving average. Yes, you may miss the lowest price. But you’ll also miss buying into a freefall. 🌍 Pullbacks in Context Context is everything. A dip in a raging bull market is not the same as a dip in a shaky sideways market. Macro matters too. If the Fed is cutting rates , risk assets might rebound fast. If tariffs, wars, or inflation are spiking, a pullback could turn into something bigger and deeper. That’s why traders zoom out before diving in. Daily charts tell one story; weekly charts often tell the bigger tale. 🚀 Buy or Bail? So, do you buy the dip or bail out? The honest answer is: it depends. A well-structured pullback in a strong uptrend with unchanged fundamentals is an opportunity. A violent, volume-heavy selloff in a fragile market with cracked fundamentals is a warning. The pullback dilemma isn’t just about charts but also about psychology. Can you hold your nerve when the market wobbles, or will you cut and run? Both choices can be right in the right context. 🎯 Final Takeaway Pullbacks are part of every trend’s DNA. They test conviction, patience, and risk management. The key isn’t to predict every wiggle but to recognize whether price action is just cooling off or signaling something bigger. Stay disciplined, respect your stops, and let the chart, not the noise, tell you when it’s time to stay in or step aside. Off to you : Buy the dip? Or bail out?

The Market Doesn't Care About Your Thesis "The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent." - John Maynard Keynes A month ago, I wrote about the brutality of trading and introduced a concept I called the "trading pandemic" - when a chain of events clouds judgment, breaks confidence, and brings down even the best traders. Life has a dark sense of humor. Shortly after publishing that post, I found myself living through exactly what I'd described. The Storm That Found Me Last week, I took significant losses. Not from ignorance. Not from recklessness. But from something far more dangerous: the very conviction that makes me a disciplined trader became the weight that pulled me under. My thesis wasn't built on hopium or hunches. It was constructed on macro fundamentals: The Setup: IG:BITCOIN halving cycle suggesting the rally should fade by September TVC:GOLD due for a correction as recession stress builds SP:SPX primed for a rollover amid a macro death cross between inflation ECONOMICS:USINTR and unemployment ECONOMICS:USUR The U.S. government shutdown on October 1st - echoing 2008 crisis conditions And the blackout of key data reinforcing the uncertainty Everything pointed to significant market stress. The fundamentals weren't just bearish - they were screaming. I waited patiently for the setup. I did the analysis. I had conviction backed by historical parallels and macro reality. Then the market did what it does best: it ignored the script and wrote its own story. When the Market Rewrites the Rules Week two of October, IG:BITCOIN didn't just hold - it broke through ATH. TVC:GOLD continued its relentless climb. SP:SPX kept grinding higher with controlled strength that suggested continuation, not exhaustion. Not with the kind of instability you'd expect during a government shutdown. Not with the fear you'd anticipate when economic data goes dark. But with the kind of structural strength that signals something bigger is happening beneath the surface. What I started seeing instead was a completely different story unfolding: Dedollarization accelerating faster than models predicted Sovereigns accumulating TVC:GOLD at record pace Institutional capital flooding IG:BITCOIN breaking cycle theory entirely SP:SPX pricing in policy accommodation before stress even surfaced Assets moving as if they're pricing in a paradigm shift, not a recession The thesis wasn't wrong about stress in the system. It was wrong about how markets would price that stress. Maybe this resolves later and my macro read proves correct on a longer timeframe. Maybe this controlled bull market is just an extended distribution before the real move down. Or maybe - and this is the hardest thing to accept - the market is telling me the playbook changed, and I'm still trading the old game. I expected liquidation, but the market priced transformation. The Paradox of Deep Conviction Here's what last week reminded me: The same deep macro understanding that separates sophisticated traders from noise traders is also the double-edged sword that can cut you down. You don't forget that conviction without risk management is dangerous. You know this. I know this. But when your thesis isn't just technical - when it's built on macro lens, death crosses, historical crisis parallels, cycle theories - conviction doesn't feel like opinion anymore. It feels like inevitability. And that's when you start making exceptions: "The 2008, and year 2000 parallels are undeniable - history doesn't lie" "Government shutdown + data blackout = liquidity stress is coming" "Dedollarization and sovereign gold buying confirms the global system is cracking" " TVC:GOLD can’t keep climbing into a deflationary panic." " Halving cycles has been the most accurate prediction of IG:BITCOIN for over a decade." You're not abandoning your principles. You're just... trusting the depth of your research. This isn't a coin flip - you've done the macro work. You understand what's happening at a structural level. But sometimes, conviction blinds you to what price is screaming: the rules changed. When Fundamentals and Price Disagree Here's the hardest pill to swallow: You can have an airtight macro thesis and still get destroyed if the market is playing a different game than the one you're analyzing. I wasn't wrong to study the 2008 crisis parallels. I wasn't wrong to watch the unemployment-inflation death cross. I wasn't wrong to position for stress when the government shut down and economic data went dark. I wasn't even wrong about sovereign de-risking - that's actually happening. But I was wrong about what markets would do with that information. The markets didn’t ignore stress they front-ran the policy response. Assets aren't climbing despite the fundamentals - they're climbing because of what those fundamentals imply about the future of fiat currencies, monetary policy, and the global financial system. TVC:GOLD isn't rallying because everything's fine - it's rallying because sovereigns are losing faith in dollar hegemony IG:BITCOIN isn't breaking halving theory because technicals matter less - it's breaking them because institutional adoption is rewriting the cycle dynamics SP:SPX isn't ignoring the shutdown - it's pricing in that monetary policy remains accommodative no matter what happens I was positioned for crisis. The market was positioning for transformation. Same data, entirely different interpretation and timeline... When Knowing Isn't Enough Nothing I learned this week was new. I got reminded. Reminded that macro analysis tells you what might happen, not when or how markets will price it. Reminded that historical parallels inform probabilities but don't dictate outcomes - especially when structural forces are shifting. Reminded that when fundamentals say "crisis" but price action says "transformation," you don't fight price - you reassess your interpretation of the fundamentals. Reminded that the market doesn't humble you because you're ignorant. It humbles you because you forgot that being right about the problem doesn't mean being right about the solution markets will price in. The irony? The conviction that comes from deep macro research, from understanding sovereign behavior, from recognizing historical patterns - that same conviction blinds you to the moment you stop asking "What if markets are pricing this differently than 2008?" and start insisting "I know what's coming because I know what happened before." The Trading Pandemic, Revisited The trading pandemic isn’t when you’re lost. It’s when you’re certain - certain enough to ignore what price is saying. You stop asking “What if this time it’s different?” and start defending why it shouldn’t be. You stop respecting liquidity dynamics and start fighting them. And when you’re already drained personally or emotionally, that conviction turns to concrete. You don’t bend - you break. The Double-Edged Sword Here's the brutal truth: What makes us sophisticated traders - deep macro research, historical pattern recognition, fundamental analysis - is precisely what makes the storm hit us harder when markets reprice the narrative. The trader who randomly bought IG:BITCOIN , TVC:GOLD , and SP:SPX in September and held? They're up significantly. Not because they saw the shift - but because they had no thesis to be wrong about. But when you lose after being this prepared - after reading every indicator, watching every pattern - it shakes more than confidence. It shakes identity. Because if you can be this right on fundamentals and still be this wrong on timing, what does that say? It says the market just handed you a gift wrapped in pain: the reminder that understanding the fundamentals doesn't guarantee understanding how markets will discount those fundamentals. What the Market Reminded Me Not taught. Not showed. Reminded. That 2008 parallels matter less when the monetary system itself is being questioned That a macro death cross doesn’t guarantee a crash - it can precede a reflationary melt-up. That government shutdown + data blackout doesn't always trigger fear - it can mean "Fed will do whatever it takes" That Bitcoin breaking halving cycles isn't a bug - it might be the feature of institutional adoption That being unable to get updated economic data doesn't stop markets from pricing in what they expect that data to show That when fundamentals and price diverge, price is telling you your interpretation is early The Humbling Truth Maybe my macro thesis resolves later - markets realize the stress, panic ensues, and the correction comes. Maybe this controlled bull market across IG:BITCOIN , CAPITALCOM:GOLD , and equities is just a longer distribution phase before reality hits. Or maybe I'm watching the market tell me in real-time that we're not repricing a 2008-style crisis - we're repricing the end of dollar dominance, and I'm still trying to trade it like 2008. Either way, it doesn't matter right now. What matters is that I was positioned for my version of the story, and the market is writing its own. The government shut down October 1st. Data went dark. And instead of fear, markets priced in transformation. Instead of crisis, they priced in paradigm shift. I was trading the problem. They were trading the solution. Moving Forward The losses hurt not because I didn’t know better - but because I did. I knew that fundamentals don’t dictate timing. I knew liquidity rules all. But I trusted the thesis more than the tape. Maybe it all reverses. Maybe it doesn't. But my job isn't to insist on my macro thesis - it's to respect what's happening right now and position accordingly, even when it contradicts everything my research suggests should happen. The infinite game continues. The conviction that hurt me last week is the same conviction that's made me successful countless times before. I'm not trying to kill the macro analysis. I'm trying to keep it humble in the face of price action. Final Word The market only truly beats the trader who quits. But it tests the trader who stays by reminding them, again and again, that mastery isn't having the right macro thesis. It's respecting price action even when - especially when - it contradicts every fundamental you've studied. October 1st came. Government shut down. Data went dark. Death crosses formed. 2008 parallels aligned. Halving Cycle completed. And yet, here we are - breaking every rule the old playbook taught us. My thesis might still be right eventually. But "eventually" doesn't pay the bills, and it certainly doesn't save your account when you're positioned for a crisis and the market is pricing a transformation. This week was expensive tuition for a lesson I already knew: The market can remain irrational - or perhaps perfectly rational in a way you don't yet understand - longer than you can remain solvent betting against it. Rise, remember, and keep playing the infinite game. 💚

#USDJPY: From +1100 Pips To +1350 Pips A Possible Swing Buy Dear Traders, I hope you’re all having a great trading week! The USDJPY is currently trading in a 152 price range and is experiencing extreme bullish momentum. The price is rallying without making any corrections, primarily due to the collapse of the Yen. We may see it fall further below. Given this market condition, it’s much riskier to trade with USDJPY. Here are two approaches you may consider: 1. Take the entry at the current trading price with an accurate stop loss while using a smaller timeframe. 2. Wait for the price to return to the liquidity gap area, where it’s expected to fill. Good luck, and thank you for your support throughout. We appreciate your support. Team Setupsfx_

NZD/USD Rate Drops Sharply After Central Bank Decision NZD/USD Rate Drops Sharply After Central Bank Decision This morning, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) cut its key interest rate. According to Forex Factory, the Official Cash Rate was reduced by 50 basis points from 3.0% to 2.5%, while most analysts had expected a smaller cut to 2.75%. Moreover, the RBNZ signalled the prospect of further easing following a recent deterioration in economic data. The decisive move caught traders off guard and led to heightened volatility. As shown on the NZD/USD chart, the New Zealand dollar has fallen to its lowest level against the US dollar since mid-April. The downward momentum has been reinforced by the strengthening of the US dollar — possibly as investors grow more cautious over a potential government shutdown, prompting them to move into cash. Technical analysis of the NZD/USD chart Movements in the kiwi’s exchange rate during the second half of 2025 have formed a descending channel on the chart. Notably, peak F: → only slightly exceeds the previous high D; → lies above the psychological 0.6000 level; → developed with a long upper wick, consistent with the Upthrust (UTAD) pattern described in Wyckoff methodology. This appears to be a strategic false breakout above the lower-high structure, paving the way for a decline towards the autumn lows and a breakout below the corrective pattern (shown in blue). From a bearish perspective: → the channel’s median line acts as resistance (as shown by the arrows); → today’s drop signals an imbalance favouring sellers, forming the basis for a Fair Value Gap resistance zone. Meanwhile, bulls may hope the lower boundary of the channel once again acts as support in 2025, providing momentum for a rebound within the channel. For this scenario to play out, however, the news backdrop would need to shift. For now, the NZD/USD chart points to bearish dominance — with a potential move down towards the 0.5700 level.

Netflix Is -11% Since June's All-Time High. What Its Chart Says Netflix NASDAQ:NFLX has fallen more than 10% since hitting an all-time high in June, but the streaming giant is still beating the S&P 500 SP:SPX in the year-to-date, one-year and five-year periods. What does technical and fundamental analysis say is going on? Let's take a look: Netflix's Fundamental Analysis NFLX has shed some 11% as of Tuesday afternoon since peaking at $1,341.15 intraday on June 30, easing especially over the four weeks despite little news. The only recent negative catalyst came last week, when Citigroup analyst Jason Bazinet (rated at five stars out of a possible five by TipRanks) cut the stock's price target to $1,280 from a previous $1,295. Bazinet also reiterated Netflix's "Neutral" rating, which is considered a "hold-equivalent." Still, the Citi analyst's $1,280 price target represents about a 7.5% move to the upside from where NFLX was trading at Tuesday afternoon. Meanwhile, Wall Street expects Netflix to report Q3 results in some two weeks (on or about Oct. 21). The Street is looking for the firm to report $6.95 in adjusted earnings per share on about $11.5 billion of revenue. If those numbers end up being accurate, that would compare favorably with the year-ago period, with a 28.7% gain from the $5.40 in adjusted EPS that NFLX reported in Q3 2024. Revenues would also have risen 17.3% from the $9.8 billion that Netflix saw a year earlier. In fact, of the 33 sell-side analysts that I know of that cover Netflix, 27 have increased their earnings estimates since the current quarter began. Just five have cut their forecasts, while one estimate remains unchanged. Netflix's Technical Analysis NFLX's one-year chart through Thursday afternoon was telling an interesting story: Readers will see that the stock benefited from an upward sloping trend that stretched from Autumn 2024 into Summer 2025, as marked with orange and purple fields in the chart above. This trend ended with NFLX peaking on June 30, with a new trend born the next day. The stock has generally pulled back since July 1 while creating a "falling-wedge" pattern, which is historically a sign of bullish reversal. Netflix's upsides in the above pattern are the stock's 21-day Exponential Moving Average (or "EMA," marked with a green line) and its 50-day Simple Moving Average (or "SMA," denoted by a blue line). These two lines are running together, so I'll view them as a single pivot. Now let's zoom in and look at Netflix's chart over just the past eight months: I've added a "double-bottom" pattern to the above chart above using dotted lines. That's a second pattern of bullish reversal, and it exists inside of Netflix's falling wedge. Granted, the stock's recent sell-off still has to find support around here. But if it does, NFLX will have just developed two simultaneous bullish patterns. The double bottom would have a $1,268 pivot, which would be about $60 above the moving averages that we just mentioned. This pivot could produce considerably higher price targets for the stock. That said, Netflix's other technical indicators above don't agree with such bullishness, or at least don't agree with it just yet. For example, the stock's Relative Strength Index (the gray line at the chart's top) is relatively weak. Similarly, Netflix's daily Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (or "MACD," marked with gold and black lines and blue bars at the chart's bottom) is close to neutral, as well as closer to bearish than bullish. The 9-day EMA (the blue bars) is in negative territory, although not far from zero bound. Both the 12-day EMA (the black line) and 26-day EMA (the gold line) are also below zero, with the black line below the gold line. All three of these conditions are typically short- to medium-term bearish signals. An Options Option Options traders who want to get NFLX at a "discount" (and get paid to wait for it to potentially go higher) might consider a bull-put spread. This strategy is set up by selling a put while also buying a second put with a lower strike price. Here's an example: -- Sell (write) one Oct. 24 NFLX $1,140 put for about $45. This option could expire after Netflix reports earnings. -- Buy one Oct. 24 NFLX $1,110 put for about $32. Net Credit: $13 Traders in the above example would pay $1,140 a share for NFLX if forced to buy the stock due to assignment of the short put. However, their net basis would be $1,127 after deducting the net premium collected. These traders also purchased some downside protection at $1,110 with the second put. All in, that represents a maximum $30-per-share loss -- the $1,140 strike price on the first put minus the $1,110 strike price on the second. However, the $13 net premium traders would collect on the entire bull-put spread would reduce the above strategy's maximum theoretical loss to $17 a share at expiration. (Moomoo Technologies Inc.

Is Bitcoin's 4-Year Cycle Over? Bitcoin’s 4-year cycle has been a go-to for traders, driven by halving events that spark price surges, sharp corrections, and recovery periods. But something’s off this time. We’re 18 months into the post-2024 halving rally—hitting the historical peak for bull runs—yet there’s no sign of a crash, and the monthly RSI isn’t screaming overbought like in past cycles. Instead, we’re seeing a slower, steadier climb that could keep going. The traditional cycle may be fading, and the shift from retail traders to institutional investors is the biggest driver. ❓ What Is Bitcoin’s 4-Year Cycle? Bitcoin’s halving happens roughly every four years (or 210,000 blocks), cutting the reward miners get for adding new blocks in half. This reduces new bitcoin supply, often driving prices up if demand holds. The cycle typically has four stages: Pre-Halving Rally: Prices rise in the months before the halving as anticipation builds. Post-Halving Bull Run: After the halving, prices surge, often hitting new highs. Bear Market: The rally fades, leading to a sharp correction. Accumulation Phase: Prices stabilize at lower levels, setting up for the next cycle. Here’s how these stages have unfolded in the past, also including the current cycle for comparison, with durations and price ranges (they are indicated on the chart): 📈 2012 Halving (November 2012): Pre-Halving Rally: ~12 months (Nov 2011–Nov 2012, $2 to $12) Post-Halving Bull Run: ~12 months (Nov 2012–Nov 2013, $12 to ~$1,150) Bear Market: ~13 months (Dec 2013–Jan 2015, $1,150 to ~$170) Accumulation Phase: ~15 months (Jan 2015–Apr 2016, ~$170–$450) 📈 2016 Halving (July 2016): Pre-Halving Rally: ~10 months (Sep 2015–Jul 2016, $230 to $650) Post-Halving Bull Run: ~17 months (Jul 2016–Dec 2017, $650 to ~$20,000) Bear Market: ~12 months (Dec 2017–Dec 2018, $20,000 to ~$3,200) Accumulation Phase: ~16 months (Dec 2018–Apr 2020, ~$3,200–$8,500) 📈 2020 Halving (May 2020): Pre-Halving Rally: ~10 months (Jul 2019–May 2020, $4,000 to $8,700) Post-Halving Bull Run: ~18 months (May 2020–Nov 2021, $8,700 to ~$69,000) Bear Market: ~14 months (Nov 2021–Jan 2023, $69,000 to ~$16,500) Accumulation Phase: ~15 months (Jan 2023–Apr 2024, ~$16,500–$60,000) 📈 2024 Halving (April 2024): Current cycle Pre-Halving Rally: ~12 months (Apr 2023–Apr 2024, ~$26,000 to ~$73,000) Post-Halving Bull Run: ~18 months (Apr 2024–Oct 2025, ~$73,000 to ~$90,000, ongoing) Bear Market: nowhere to be seen In the past, retail traders drove these cycles, fueled by hype on platforms like YouTube, X or Reddit. Now, institutions are reshaping the game. ℹ️ Why the 4-Year Cycle May Be Over We’re 18 months past the 2024 halving (April 2024–October 2025), matching the typical length of past bull runs. Yet, there’s no sign of a reversal. The monthly RSI, which hit 90+ at the peaks of previous cycles (2013, 2017, 2021), is only in the 60s–70s now, signaling controlled, gradual growth rather than a parabolic spike. This steady climb could continue, and here’s why the traditional cycle might be breaking down, with institutions leading the charge. 1️⃣ Institutions Are Driving the Market Bitcoin used to be retail territory—everyday traders chasing hype on social media, buying into rallies, and selling in panic. Now, institutional investors like BlackRock, Fidelity, and MicroStrategy are pouring in billions. The U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs launched in 2024 have amassed over $10 billion in assets by October 2025. Unlike retail traders, institutions don’t ride emotional waves. They treat Bitcoin as a long-term hedge or portfolio asset, creating steady demand. This shift is a game-changer. A key difference this cycle? Bitcoin broke its previous all-time high (~$69,000 from 2021) before the 2024 halving, hitting ~$73,000 in March 2024—something that never happened in prior cycles, where new highs came post-halving. This early breakout, along with the 18-month rally without a crash and a moderate RSI, shows institutions are driving consistent buying, smoothing out the wild swings of past cycles. It’s like the market’s gone from a rollercoaster to a steady climb, and big money is the driving factor. 2️⃣ Halvings Have Less Impact Early halvings slashed Bitcoin’s supply growth significantly—25% to 12% in 2012. The 2024 halving only dropped inflation from ~1.7% to ~0.85%. With ~19.7 million of 21 million coins already mined, the supply shock is weaker. Markets now price in halvings early, reducing the explosive surges of past cycles and miners have less BTC to sell, reducing impact on the market. 3️⃣ Macro Factors Are Taking Over Bitcoin is increasingly tied to global markets. It fell in 2022 with stocks when the Fed raised rates and rallied in 2023–2024 as rate cuts seemed likely. Macro trends—interest rates, inflation, the dollar—now outweigh the halving’s influence. Institutions, focused on these factors, align Bitcoin’s price with broader financial markets, not its internal cycle. The Fed's announcement of further cuts, making money cheaper, point towards a further increase of BTC price. 4️⃣ Market Sentiment Has Matured Retail FOMO used to cause massive pre-halving rallies, but traders are more disciplined now. The 2024 pre-halving rally was modest compared to past cycles, despite breaking the all-time high. Competition from altcoins and DeFi splits market focus. Institutions, with their data-driven approach, don’t chase hype, contributing to the steady growth we’re seeing. 5️⃣ On-Chain Data Shows a Shift Models like Stock-to-Flow, once reliable, failed to predict 2024’s price action. Long-term holders are selling less, partly due to institutional custody, reducing sell pressure and muting bull run spikes. The moderate RSI and lack of a crash at the 18-month mark reflect a market driven by steady accumulation, not retail mania. ‼️ Traders: Bias can be dangerous With the 4-year cycle potentially fading, caution is advised. Here’s how to adapt: Track Macro Trends : Monitor Fed policy, inflation, and stock market moves. Use TradingView’s correlation tools to see how Bitcoin tracks with assets like the Nasdaq. Use On-Chain Metrics : Check MVRV or Puell Multiple on TradingView to gauge market sentiment, independent of halving timelines. Stay Flexible : Focus on shorter-term charts (daily, weekly) to catch trends, rather than waiting for cycle milestones. Manage Risk : With less predictability, use tight stop-losses and smaller position sizes. 📃 So what's the conclusion? Bitcoin’s 4-year cycle was a trader’s roadmap, but it’s losing its edge. We’re 18 months into the post-2024 halving rally, with no crash in sight and a monthly RSI signaling controlled growth that could persist. Breaking the previous all-time high before the halving sets this cycle apart, driven by institutional demand. With weaker halvings, macro influences, and a more mature market, the old cycle may be history. In October 2025, Bitcoin is still going strong, but it’s moving to a new rhythm—driven by big money, not hype. 📢 What do you think? Will Bitcoin’s cycles keep fading, or is the old pattern coming back? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Bitcoin Sets Another ATH as Traders Bet on $140,000 by Year End Blink and you’ll miss it. Bitcoin’s recent leg up caught lots of traders unprepared. After sinking below $110,000 few weeks back, the OG coin slingshotted to a fresh record high above $126,000 this week. Not a bad way to start October Uptober . Now, traders are adding to bets that the price will crack $140,000 by year end. How realistic is that? 🌕 “Uptober” Strikes Again October has a reputation in crypto lore and it’s living up to it. Over the last 13 Octobers, Bitcoin BITSTAMP:BTCUSD has ended in the green 10 times. The pattern is set to continue as the coin rides a broader wave of optimism fueled by the Fed’s rate cuts, a messy US government shutdown, and the return of that dangerous four-letter abbreviation: FOMO. But the real kicker? Spot Bitcoin ETFs are on fire. US-listed Bitcoin ETFs kicked off the month with their second-best week ever, attracting $3.24 billion in net inflows — nearly matching their record of $3.38 billion set in November 2024. Are we… so back ? 💥 Options Traders Go Big: $140K or Bust In the options market, optimism is loud and clear. Data from Deribit shows open interest piling up around the $140,000 strike for contracts expiring in December — meaning plenty of traders are betting we’ll see new highs just in time for the holiday season. (Not that easy to gift a BTC now, is it?) At the same time, a few cautious traders are hedging with puts, just in case this turns into another one of those “too-fast, too-furious” rallies. 📈 You Get a Record and You Get a Record It’s not just Bitcoin exploring new horizons. The S&P 500 SP:SPX and the Nasdaq Composite NASDAQ:IXIC both logged their 30-something record closes of 2025, powered by relentless AI strength ( some huge OpenAI deal ) and investors betting that rate cuts will stretch the bull run. But also, gold bugs are turning into the Scrooge McDucks of the market, backstroking through piles of gold in impenetrable fortresses. The shiny stuff OANDA:XAUUSD is up 55% year to date and hovering just under $4,000 per ounce, a milestone that would make even die-hard crypto bulls nod in respect. Apparently, the market’s hot across the board. 🧠 Why Bitcoin’s Rally Makes Sense (Kind Of) Underneath the euphoria, there’s some logic to this madness: • Lower rates = cheaper money. When the Fed cuts, non-yielding assets like Bitcoin suddenly look more attractive. • Inflation’s still sticky. Investors want something that can’t be printed at will. The US government shutdown only strengthened that flow of cash. • Institutional influx is real. ETFs, family offices, and even corporate treasuries are allocating to Bitcoin BITSTAMP:BTCUSD , Ethereum BITSTAMP:ETHUSD , and Solana PURPLETRADING:SOLUSD. At its current market cap of $2.5 trillion, Bitcoin is now bigger than Amazon NASDAQ:AMZN ($2.4 trillion), the world’s fifth-largest company . 🧭 The “Uptober” Mindset Here’s where psychology comes in. After weeks of choppy sideways trading, boredom gave way to disbelief — then disbelief turned to excitement. Now? We’re entering the danger zone where conviction and euphoria start to blur. Some veterans call this the “emotional compression” phase — when every dip feels like an entry and every green candle feels eternal. But cycles never die; they just rotate. Those who chase late often learn that momentum cuts both ways. Still, momentum traders have history on their side. Every October since 2012 (barring 2018, 2014, and 2012), Bitcoin has delivered solid gains. It’s hard to argue with a pattern that reliable — until it breaks. 🤔 What Could Trip Up the Bulls Even the most euphoric chart has risk baked in: • Profit-taking. After a 100% gain over the past twelve months, short-term traders can decide to lock in profits fast. • Macro shocks. One bad inflation print ECONOMICS:USCPI or a hawkish Fed comment could cool the mood. • Overheated sentiment. When everyone in your barbershop agrees it’s going up, it usually doesn’t — at least not immediately. The chart’s near-term support sits between $120,000–$122,000. Lose that, and a retest of $110,000 is possible. Hold it, and $140,000 becomes more than just a meme. 📢 $140K by Year-End: Dream or Data? Statistically speaking, Bitcoin would need roughly a 4% monthly gain from here to hit $140,000 by December. Considering it’s already up over 100% year-to-date, that’s not outrageous. To get there, the stars must stay aligned: • ETF inflows keep building momentum. • The Fed sticks to its dovish script. • Stocks stay buoyant, giving traders room to take risk. • No black swans, no rug pulls, no sudden panic tweets. If all that holds, a single Bitcoin closing the year north of $140,000 isn’t fantasy. It’s just crypto doing what crypto does — defying logic, gravity, and your risk management plan. 👉 Off to you : Where do you see Bitcoin by end of year? Cast your predictions in the comment section!

US Dollar at Risk of More Losses amid Shutdown Woes, Fed Dilemma The US dollar TVC:DXY has been knocked by last week’s US government shutdown and the subsequent economic blackout. At the same time, the Federal Reserve can’t figure out what’s worse – inflation or job crunch. After Congress failed to pass a funding bill, the government officially went dark at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday. Traders, however, didn’t panic. Stocks climbed to fresh record highs , gold OANDA:XAUUSD popped, yields dipped — and the dollar slipped further into the red . The greenback, usually the go-to safe haven during global turmoil, is acting like it forgot about that job description. With the Federal Reserve cornered between a slowing economy and stubborn inflation, plus fresh political uncertainty in D.C., the dollar’s shine is fading fast. ⚖️ When Politics and Policy Collide Let’s start with the elephant in the room: the government shutdown. Historically, these dark D.C. moments shave about a tenth of a percentage point off GDP per week. In other words, the economy loses a few hairs — not a limb. But this one hits differently. That’s because the Fed is already walking a tightrope. With unemployment creeping up ( 4.3% in August and lost jobs in June ) and inflation still running at 2.9% , the central bank has little margin for error. The longer the shutdown drags on, the harder it becomes for policymakers to parse what’s real economic weakness and what’s just delayed government paychecks. Investors, meanwhile, are pricing in a full quarter-point rate cut at the Fed’s next meeting and another one in December. The market is betting that Powell & Co. will prioritize saving jobs over fighting inflation. And that typically means one thing: a softer dollar. 📉 The Dollar’s Safe-Haven Cred Takes a Hit Remember when the dollar used to rally whenever things got messy? Not this year. Despite trade tensions, geopolitical flare-ups, and now a full-blown government shutdown, the dollar has lost roughly 10% since January. Part of that weakness stems from shifting interest-rate expectations. When the Fed signals it’s going to cut, yields on US assets drop — and so does the appeal of holding dollars. Lower rates make borrowing cheaper, but they also mean less income for investors parking money in dollar-denominated bonds. The euro took advantage, climbing above $1.17 as traders rotated out of the greenback. Gold also basked in the dollar’s weakness, closing Friday at $3,886 an ounce — a fresh all-time closing high. And just to rub salt in the wound, even cryptocurrencies have outperformed. Bitcoin BITSTAMP:BTCUSD , the digital rebel of finance, has gained about 35% this year and on Sunday hit a record high above $125,000 per coin. 🧩 Fed Dilemma: Jobs vs. Inflation The Federal Reserve’s dual mandate is simple on paper: keep prices stable and employment high. But right now, the two goals are in open conflict. On the one hand, the labor market is clearly slowing. August brought just 22,000 new jobs — the weakest print since early 2020. Revised data for June showed the economy actually lost 13,000 staffers net. Those aren’t the kinds of numbers that inspire confidence. On the other side, inflation is still running above target. Core PCE, the Fed’s favorite measure, clocked in at 2.9% in August — unchanged from July but still nearly a full percentage point above the goal. So what’s the play? Cut rates to support jobs and risk stoking inflation? Or hold firm, keep inflation contained, and risk a deeper slowdown? That’s the central banker’s version of “Would you rather.” 👀 The Fed’s Independence (and the Trump Factor) There’s another layer of intrigue: politics. The Supreme Court just deferred a hearing on President Trump’s attempt to remove Fed Governor Lisa Cook — a Biden appointee — until January. Cook can remain at the Fed in the meantime, but the episode has traders questioning just how independent the central bank really is under the new administration. Fed Chair Jerome Powell, nearing the end of his term, has been caught between maintaining credibility and avoiding direct political confrontation. His latest move — a quarter-point rate cut in September — was meant to show responsiveness to data, not pressure. But optics matter, and the market is watching for signs of interference. If investors start believing the Fed is bending to political will, confidence in US monetary policy could erode further — another potential strike against the dollar. 💡 What It Means for Traders Here’s the breakdown: • For FX traders: The dollar remains vulnerable, especially if the Fed confirms more cuts are on the way. Pairs like FX:EURUSD and FX:GBPUSD could see more upside. Meanwhile, FX:USDJPY might stay volatile as yen buyers return to their comfort zone. • For gold bulls: Lower yields and a weaker dollar create the perfect storm. Gold looks strong despite charting new horizons, though traders should watch for a potential pullback if the Fed’s tone shifts. • For equity investors: Rate cuts are generally bullish. Cheaper money means higher valuations — at least until inflation becomes a problem again. • For crypto enthusiasts: A dovish Fed tends to favor risk assets, and Bitcoin could benefit as a hedge against both inflation and institutional confusion. 🧮 The Shutdown Math: Small Impact, Big Symbolism Economists will tell you that a shutdown doesn’t tank the economy — but it does rattle sentiment. Each week of a federal closure trims GDP growth by about 0.1 percentage point. If this one matches the 35-day record from 2018–19 (during Trump’s first term), we’re looking at a 0.5% haircut. Manageable, but not ideal when the economy’s already wobbling. More concerning is what a prolonged shutdown means for data flow. If key reports like nonfarm payrolls ECONOMICS:USNFP or CPI ECONOMICS:USCPI get delayed, the Fed will be in the dark heading into its next meeting — and that’s when mistakes happen. Markets hate uncertainty, and uncertainty is the shutdown’s main export. 🧭 The Road Ahead The dollar’s trajectory from here depends on whether the Fed can strike the right balance. If Powell emphasizes employment and doubles down on cuts, you may expect the greenback to weaken further. But if inflation surprises to the upside, markets could quickly reverse their dovish bets. Make sure to keep an eye on the Economic calendar . September’s inflation hits October 15 and the Fed’s meeting is on deck for October 28-29. Off to you : Where do you see the dollar by year end?

What’s a Wedge Pattern?What's up traders! 👋 Wedge patterns are a powerful tool in technical analysis that can give you a heads-up about potential price moves. Whether you’re spotting a falling wedge or a rising wedge, these formations can reveal key signals about market direction. What’s a Wedge Pattern? A wedge pattern forms when price moves between two converging trendlines, creating a shape resembling a triangle. These patterns usually appear when the market is slowing down or consolidating before making a bigger move. Wedges can slope upwards or downwards, and the key difference lies in whether the trendlines are converging in an uptrend (rising wedge) or a downtrend (falling wedge). Falling Wedge Pattern: Bullish Reversal 📈 The falling wedge pattern is a bullish reversal signal. This formation occurs when price moves between two downward-sloping trendlines, creating a series of lower highs and lower lows. The downward momentum weakens as the trendlines converge, indicating that sellers are losing strength, which sets up the potential for a bullish breakout. How to Trade the Falling Wedge Entry: Wait for the price to break above the upper trendline. This is your signal to enter long. Target: Measure the height of the wedge at its widest point and project it upwards from the breakout point. Stop Loss: Place it just below the most recent swing low to protect your position if the breakout doesn’t happen. The chart illustrates a falling wedge pattern on the Bitcoin / Tether US pair with a 1-hour timeframe. Price action is contained within two converging downward-sloping trendlines, suggesting weakening bearish momentum. The breakout above the upper trendline signals a bullish reversal, and the subsequent uptick in price confirms the shift in momentum. In rare cases, a breakout failure can lead to a bearish falling wedge pattern, but this scenario is less common. Keep an eye on the price action for signs of continued upward momentum. Rising Wedge Pattern: Bearish Reversal 📉 The rising wedge pattern is a bearish reversal signal. This formation happens when price moves between two upward-sloping trendlines, creating higher highs and higher lows. The rising wedge indicates weakening buying pressure and a potential reversal to the downside. How to Trade the Rising Wedge Entry: Enter a short position once the price breaks below the lower trendline. Target: Measure the height of the wedge and project it downward from the breakout point. Stop Loss: Set it just above the most recent swing high to protect your trade. Wedge Chart Pattern Trading: Key Tips ⚡ Context is everything when trading wedge patterns. If a bullish wedge pattern appears in an uptrend, it’s more likely to break to the upside. If a bearish wedge shows up in a downtrend, expect a breakdown. Here are a few quick tips to improve your wedge trading pattern game: Trendlines are key: Ensure your trendlines are drawn accurately. Properly drawn trendlines lead to better trades. Breakout confirmation: Confirm breakouts with increased volume and, ideally, by checking for confluence with other indicators like RSI or MACD. A breakout without volume is often a false signal. Risk management: Always use a stop loss to protect your capital. Use other indicators: Wedge patterns work well with additional tools such as RSI, moving averages, or MACD. The more confluence, the better! Final Thoughts 🏁 Wedge patterns, whether it’s the falling wedge pattern signaling a bullish reversal or the rising wedge pattern trading indicating bearish pressure, are some of the most reliable chart formations out there. But remember: no setup is perfect, so always use a stop loss and never rely on a single indicator. With practice, you’ll get better at spotting these setups and timing your entries and exits like a pro. Happy trading, and may the charts be in your favor! 💰📊

SMA 20: The most used, simple, and useful indicator The 20-period Simple Moving Average ( SMA 20 ) is easy to calculate and widely used, though often undervalued by traders eager for novelty. Its presence is notable in popular technical indicators like Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels. Even the most purist price action traders include it on their charts, valuing its ability to identify trends and key support and resistance levels. Today, I want to explore the practical uses traders can derive from this versatile indicator. Behavioral Patterns Technical Analysis emerged from the detection and study of repetitive patterns or phenomena. These patterns are intrinsically tied to investor psychology, and their influence on decision-making is fundamental. Repetitive patterns around an SMA 20 typically indicate that a trend has strength and stability, attracting investors and paving the way for highly effective systems or methodologies. One of my favorites involves identifying entry points in strong trends that have clearly respected the SMA 20. Figures 1 and 2 illustrate this type of approach: Figure 1: Figure 2: Price Overextensions A price overextension in trading refers to an extreme price movement that significantly deviates from its average or reference level. This phenomenon often indicates that the price has moved too far, too fast in one direction (bullish or bearish) over a short period, suggesting a potential reversal or correction. The SMA 20 is extremely useful for visually detecting these phenomena. Moreover, when trading in high-volatility contexts like overextensions, the SMA 20 can serve as a safe exit zone. In Figure 3, you can observe how the price extends twice, significantly diverging from the SMA 20. The first overextension wouldn’t have been sufficient for an entry, but the second overextension generated a clear bearish divergence, which, combined with price action, would have validated a short entry. The SMA 20 is a discreet target for taking profits without excessive exposure. This leverages a widely applied statistical concept in markets: mean reversion. Figure 3: Breakout Trading Breakout trading involves entering the market when an asset’s price breaks through a key support or resistance level, with the expectation that the movement will continue in the breakout direction. A price action phenomenon that significantly increases the likelihood of a successful breakout is pre-breakout tension , a state of compressed supply and demand characterized by a narrow range, low volatility, and order accumulation at key levels. The SMA 20 is extremely useful for clearly identifying the dominance between buying and selling forces, as well as visually highlighting pre-breakout tension. In Figure 4, I use a 20-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA 20) to increase sensitivity to the indicator’s changes. Notice how the EMA 20 seems to compress the price against the range’s boundaries, as if trying to push it out. Figure 4: Retest Patterns A retest occurs when, after breaking a significant support or resistance, opposing forces push back to test the strength of the prior level. In Figure 5, you can see how, after a bearish breakout from an exhaustion pattern, bulls attack strongly but encounter resistance at what was previously a breached support. An SMA 20 aligned with this zone increases the level’s robustness, which is defended by sellers who see an excellent profit opportunity. Figure 5: Figure 6 shows an opposite example. Figure 6: Conclusions With this brief overview, I aim to demonstrate that it’s not necessary to rely on novel or complex technical indicators to make sound market decisions. In Technical Analysis, simplicity, combined with deep understanding, often yields significant results. Final Note If you’d like to take a look at my analysis record, you can find my profile in Spanish, where I transparently share well-defined market entries. Send your good vibes if you enjoyed this article, and may God bless you all.

SILVER (XAG/USD): One More Bullish Wave is Coming?!⚠️ SILVER appears to be confined within a horizontal range, as observed on the 4-hour chart. The price is currently nearing the upper limit of this range. Given the prevailing strong bullish trend, there is a considerable likelihood of a continued upward movement. A breakout and a 4-hour candle closing above the indicated resistance level would serve as a dependable confirmation. The subsequent objective for buyers is anticipated to be 49.00. Conversely, the market might persist in its consolidation phase, trading within the established range.

Gold Continues to Challenge Record Resistance Levels 👋Hello everyone, what are your thoughts on OANDA:XAUUSD ? As of this writing, gold continues its upward momentum, having reached new highs as investors increase their bets on the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates in the near future. The concerns over the U.S. government shutdown and global economic instability have further strengthened gold’s position as a safe haven asset. At the same time, the U.S. Dollar is under pressure due to expectations of monetary easing, which is paving the way for further gains in gold. Technically, gold is currently consolidating in a range, repeating patterns seen in the past. The current support level is around $3,815, while the immediate resistance is near the $3,900 mark. If the price breaks this resistance, the next target could be higher record levels. Overall, the short to medium-term outlook still favors the bulls. Do you agree? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!

Microstrategy Is Still Pointing Higher For The Final 5th Wave Microstrategy is a US business intelligence and software company, but it has become best known for its aggressive Bitcoin strategy. Under co-founder Michael Saylor, the company shifted from focusing mainly on software to also using Bitcoin as its primary treasury reserve asset. Since 2020, MicroStrategy has been steadily buying Bitcoin, often using debt or equity raises to finance purchases. Their strategy is based on the belief that Bitcoin is superior to holding cash, as it can act as a long-term store of value against inflation and currency debasement. From an Elliott wave perspective, we see Microstrategy nicely holding above trendline connected from the 2022 lows, so it's still unfolding a five-wave bullish impulse. Currently, it's consolidating within a bullish triangle pattern in wave (4), and once it's fully finished, we can expect another and maybe final push to the upside for wave (5) this year before a higher degree correction and bear market shows up next year. We also want to mention that even Bitcoin can be finishing a 3-year bullish cycle, which can end this year, but there's still some space for more gains along with the Microstrategy to complete the 5th wave of an impulse.

TSLA Elliott Wave Count with ABC Harmonic or Flat Corrective Tesla (TSLA) is forming a potential Wave 4 correction that aligns with an ABC harmonic structure. Price action suggests a possible deeper retracement into the 0.5–0.618 Fibonacci support zone (436–449 area) before resuming its larger uptrend. If Wave 4 completes near the harmonic “D” zone (highlighted support box), the next leg higher could target the 1.236–1.414 Fibonacci extensions around 488–501, in line with Wave 5 projection. Key levels to watch: Support: 436.9 (0.618 retrace), 425 psychological, 397 strong support. Resistance: 444.7, 470.8 (previous high), 501–505 (Wave 5 target). Bullish scenario: Wave 4 completes soon, leading to a strong Wave 5 breakout towards 500+. Bearish scenario: Breakdown below 425–397 support could invalidate the bullish count and extend correction lower. The other possibility is that it is actually unfolding a flat correction in Wave 4 after completing Wave 3 near the recent high. The structure suggests price may continue to consolidate within the corrective channel before setting up the next impulse leg. Bullish scenario: Flat correction completes, setting the stage for Wave 5 rally toward 490–505. Bearish scenario: Breakdown below 397 invalidates the bullish count and signals deeper retracement.
