Bitcoin is near what could be a very important round number top. The three prior significant peaks in 2014,2017, and 2021 came in either November or December. BTCUSD is also near a multi-year rising trendline. Both RSI and MACD have bearish divergences. An important top could be made soon.

In one or two trading days the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) could complete an extended Elliott wave Impulse pattern that began on October 2022. Weekly RSI has multiple bearish divergences. If a top is made the decline could continue for several months.

Voume Profile places volume on a vertical scale to determine areas of support/resistance. The widest part of the profile is called "Point of Control" (POC). This is where the strongest support and resistance could be. POC is at 5,704. Chart support is at 5674. A break below these levels could open the door for a plunge down to the 08/05/24 mini crash bottom.

My 07/20/24 post “ S&P 500 - Fibonacci Time Cycle” noted the SPX could decline 20% into October 2024. Recent weekly momentum evidence supports that theory. Weekly Stochastic has a bearish line cross. Weekly RSI has moved below its moving average line. Today 07/25/24 SPX moved below the rising trendline from October 2023. There’s a good chance the SPX could...

Point & Figure charts are great for illustrating support/resistance. A break below the 06/07/24 bottom implies a move down to primary support made on 05/03/24. A break below the 05/03/24 bottom could open the door for a rapid move down to the 2,165 to 2,185 area.
