BITCOIN PREDICTION: WHALES PREPARING HUGE MOVE!!!? (damn)Yello Paradisers! In this video, as professional traders, we have been going through multi-time frame analysis. First, we went through an ultra-high time frame where I shared with you that we are touching an important moving average trend line. Because of that, we understand that a channel retest is possible, but we need to be careful because there is a bearish divergence, and we already got a confirmational bearish cross. On the high timeframe chart, we have seen that the ABC zigzag is already finished. Right now, we are forming a possible first ultra-high timeframe wave, and from that, we are starting the first motive mode wave. We are seeing bullish divergence, and what I forgot to say is that if we start moving to the upside and creating the secondary high timeframe wave, we will touch the CME futures gap and close it. Which is another confluence. After that, we have been shifting our focus to the medium timeframe. I've told you that what's important is also what you don't see in the market and we are seeing so far no bearish divergence plus what I have didn't show you but there are also two bullish hammer candlestick patterns candles I have been sharing with you the moving average trend line the Fibonacci time zone and the next resistances finally at low time frame chart we have been going through the ending diagonal. Paradisers! Keep in mind to trade only with a proper professional trading strategy. Wait for confirmations. Play with tactics. This is the only way you can be long-term profitable. Remember, don’t trade without confirmations. Wait for them before creating a trade. Be disciplined, patient, and emotionally controlled. Only trade the highest probability setups with the greatest risk to reward ratio. This will ensure that you become a long-term profitable professional trader. Don't be a gambler.

BTCUSD Breakout Above Trendline – Bullish Continuation Setup🔹 Market Context On the 15m timeframe, Bitcoin has decisively broken above the descending trendline that had previously acted as dynamic resistance with multiple rejections. This breakout occurred after the market created Equal Highs (EQH) and engineered liquidity above them, followed by a Break of Structure (BOS) and a confirmed Change of Character (CHoCH) to the upside. The breakout not only invalidates the short-term bearish structure but also signals a possible shift in order flow, with buyers stepping in after liquidity collection. ⸻ 🔹 Price Action Breakdown • Liquidity Grab: The equal highs at ~$108,700–$108,900 were swept, clearing stop orders and creating fuel for a push higher. • Trendline Break: The clean break and close above the descending trendline suggests weakening seller control. • Retest Opportunity: Price may revisit the broken trendline or recent demand zone (~$108,700–$108,900) before continuing upward. • Strong High in Play: The $110,500 zone represents the untested supply area and “strong high” that will likely attract price in the short term. ⸻ 🔹 Trade Idea (Bullish Bias) • Entry Zone: Retest of $108,700–$108,900 demand area • Stop Loss: Below $108,250 (invalidates bullish structure) • Take Profit Targets: • TP1: $109,350 → first reaction level • TP2: $109,750–$110,000 → psychological liquidity pool • TP3: $110,500 → untested supply / strong high ⸻ CFI:BTCUSD 🔹 Invalidation If BTC closes back below $108,250 with strong momentum, this would suggest a failed breakout and reopen short opportunities toward $107,500 and $107,200. ⸻ 🔹 Bias Summary • Primary Bias: Bullish continuation after breakout • Key Zone to Hold: $108,700–$108,900 • Upside Targets: $109,350 → $110,500 • Invalidation Level: $108,250

Bitcoin at Golden Pocket Support – Don’t Sell the Dip?Bitcoin is currently testing the 0.618–0.65 Fibonacci retracement zone (~$108k), a historically strong support level also known as the “Golden Pocket.” With confluence from CZ’s reminder — “Things to avoid in crypto: Selling the dip” — this area could be a major bounce zone if bulls defend it. 🔹 Strong Support: $108k 🔹 Next Support: $98k if breakdown happens 🔹 Resistance: $113k – $117k Bias: Watch for confirmation candles. A bounce here could send BTC back toward $113k–117k. A breakdown invalidates this support.

BTC/USDT Analysis. Continuation of the local uptrend Hello everyone! This is CryptoRobotics trader-analyst with the daily market analysis. Yesterday, the market followed our scenario, continuing the local uptrend and breaking the previous high. At the moment, there are no strong signs of profit-taking that could trigger a reversal, nor major resistance zones nearby. The main expectation remains further growth towards the $114,400–$115,500 (volume zone), where a reversal pattern may start to form. For intraday traders, the key level to watch is around $112,000. An abnormally high volume cluster was recorded there, which positioned buyers earlier. If the price dips into this zone and shows a reaction, a local long setup may be considered. Buy zones: ~$112,000 (local zone, abnormal cluster), $110,000–$105,000 (accumulated volumes). Sell zones: $114,400–$115,500 (volume zone), ~$116,500 (volume anomaly), $117,200–$119,000 (accumulated volumes), $121,200–$122,200 (buying absorption).

BTC RoadmapBitcoin’s monthly chart shows the same repeating rhythm across cycles: massive rallies, steep drawdowns, and multi-year bases before new highs. But unlike past cycles where drawdowns reached 75–80%, the landscape has changed. Institutional adoption, ETF inflows, and broader ownership have created a structural cushion. Instead of BTC revisiting deep cycle lows, the worst case now is a retest of the previous peak (~$69k) — the top of the 2021 cycle. Cycle 1: +23,960%, then -78% Cycle 2: +8,922%, then -78% Cycle 3: +1,053%, then -75% Cycle 4 (current): +300% off the lows so far, ETF-driven The yellow trendline continues to serve as long-term support. ETF entries and institutional demand should prevent another full collapse like in earlier cycles. Peak target: $147k Q4 2025 Bottom target: 65k - 74k Q4 2026/Q1 2027 Stop-loss zone (invalidated idea): close below 50W MA Definitely not written by chatgpt.

BTC Professional Market Movement Analysis🏗️ How Market Moves Liquidity Grab at Support 🟢 Price dips into the 112K zone to collect liquidity (stop-hunts + institutional buys). Market shows wick rejections & volume absorption. This is where smart money positions for the next leg higher. Expansion Phase 🚀 After liquidity grab → market expands upward. Price pushes aggressively toward the 124K resistance. This movement is fueled by trapped sellers covering shorts + buyers entering late. Resistance Reaction 🔴 At 124K zone, market faces supply. Either: Rejects and falls back toward support (range continues). Breaks through → signals strong bullish continuation (trend shift). 📉 If Support Fails If BTC closes below 111K, it means liquidity is not enough. Market will seek the next major demand zone (100K) where bigger orders sit. This creates a stop-hunt + deeper accumulation before a new push higher. 🧠 Pro Definition Market does not move randomly — it moves from liquidity pool to liquidity pool. BTC is currently collecting orders at 112K support. Expect a bounce → expansion → test of 124K supply. If 112K fails, price will seek deeper liquidity near 100K before rebounding. ⚡ In simple terms: 👉 Market first hunts liquidity at support 🟢, 👉 then expands upward toward resistance 🔴, 👉 and finally decides — either reject back into the range or break higher for continuation.

New Highs Ahead ? - BTCUSD Elliott Wave AnalysisHello Friends, Welcome to RK_Chaarts, Today we are having Elliott wave theory counts on BTCUSD Bitcoin Chart Analysis The weekly timeframe of the BTCUSD bitcoin chart reveals that we are unfolding Super Cycle Degree Wave (III) in Blue. This wave's sub-divisions, which should total five for a Cycle Degree, are visible. We've completed Waves I & II and begun unfolding Wave III in red. Within Wave III, we are unfolding the 1st wave ((1)) of one lower degree as Primary (Black). This wave will unfold in five sub-divisions of one more lower degree as Intermediate degree in (Blue). Daily Outlook: On the daily outlook, we are currently unfolding wave (4) of Intermediate degree (Blue), a subdivision of wave ((1)) of Primary degree (Black). As wave (4) nears completion, a reversal is expected soon, driving prices toward new highs to complete wave (5) of ((1)). Additional Support Confirmation: Further reinforcing the analysis, the Anchored VWAP's Average is also showing support near 104,000. This confluence of support levels increases the likelihood of a reversal, making it an important level to watch for traders. Key Takeaways: - We're unfolding Cycle Degree Wave III on the weekly timeframe. - Wave (4) of Intermediate degree is nearing completion on the daily outlook. - A reversal is expected soon, driving prices toward new highs. - Anchored VWAP also showing Support nearby current price. Important Wave Theory Considerations: As per wave theory, wave (4) shouldn't overlap wave (1), except in the case of diagonals and triangles. In this scenario, we are unfolding a diagonal, allowing wave (4) to enter into wave (1). However, it's crucial to note that wave (4) should not go beyond the low of wave (2) under any circumstances. If it does, our wave counts would be invalidated. A Word of Caution: Elliott Wave Theory and possible wave counts suggest that the price will make new highs on the chart soon. However, the market is inherently unpredictable and always ready to surprise. Therefore, it's essential to consider "what-if" scenarios in your trading journey. Are we ready for new highs ? As we navigate the complexities of the market, it's vital to remain adaptable and prepared for any eventuality. By acknowledging the potential for surprises and maintaining a flexible mindset, traders can better navigate the markets and make informed decisions. Conclusion: The BTCUSD bitcoin chart is poised for a reversal, driven by the completion of wave (4) and the subsequent unfolding of wave (5). While the analysis suggests new highs are on the horizon, it's essential to remain cautious and consider the unpredictability of the market. Are you prepared for the possibilities that lie ahead ?

BTCUSD LongBitcoin: Small Bull Flag After Structural Shift – Upside Targets Ahead After last Friday’s bullish surge following Powell’s speech, Bitcoin has shifted structure and is currently consolidating in a small bullish flag. This pullback appears to be a healthy retracement of the previous impulsive move, setting the stage for another potential leg higher. Key Levels to Watch: Immediate Retracement Zone: $45,100 – a potential area to seek new long positions if price dips. Upside Targets: Looking for a move first toward $117 (likely referring to $117K if BTC breaks ATHs), with an extended upside potential to $123K–$124K. Macro Tailwinds: The broader crypto market remains constructive. Expectations of interest rate cuts are fueling risk-on sentiment, which could further enhance upside momentum in crypto assets. Any confirmed dovish pivot or macro easing could accelerate flows into Bitcoin and the wider crypto space. Trading Plan: Watch for continuation patterns breaking to the upside, confirming the bull flag resolution. Manage risk around invalidation zones below recent swing lows.

Bitcoin 4H BullishBitcoin tapped into the liquidity at $111,881. There was strong support from the green trendlines, along with a bullish signal from a bullish divergence ✅. This pushed the market significantly higher. News: Powell also added a positive impulse, helping the 4h candle close above 115k. 👉 As long as we remain within this range, the outlook stays bullish for next week. 👉 A possible re-entry for me is in the yellow box ($114,119), where a high-leverage long position is also placed. 👉 Our weekly close remains the key support for further upward movement. Wishing you a great weekend! ✌️🚀"

Bitcoin Explodes to $116,000 After Fed Speech SignalBitcoin Surges Past $116,000 as Federal Reserve Signals Historic Policy Shift The cryptocurrency market experienced a dramatic reversal of fortune as Bitcoin rocketed past $116,000, recovering from a challenging period that had seen the digital asset touch six-week lows. The catalyst for this remarkable turnaround came from an unlikely source: Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, whose dovish remarks at the prestigious Jackson Hole Economic Symposium sent ripple effects through global financial markets, fundamentally altering the trajectory for risk assets and digital currencies alike. The Jackson Hole Moment That Changed Everything In what many market observers are calling a pivotal moment for monetary policy, Jerome Powell delivered a speech that effectively cemented market expectations for an interest rate cut in September. The immediate reaction was nothing short of spectacular. Within minutes of Powell's comments hitting the wires, Bitcoin surged over 2%, climbing from approximately $114,200 to breach the psychologically significant $116,000 level. This rapid appreciation represented not just a technical bounce, but a fundamental reassessment of the cryptocurrency's near-term prospects in a changing monetary environment. The significance of Powell's speech cannot be overstated. The Jackson Hole Economic Symposium has historically served as a platform for Federal Reserve chairs to signal major policy shifts, and this year proved no exception. Powell's carefully calibrated remarks suggested that the Federal Reserve's aggressive rate-hiking cycle, which had been implemented to combat persistent inflation, might finally be approaching its conclusion. For Bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem, which had struggled under the weight of tighter monetary conditions for much of the past two years, this represented a potential game-changer. The market's interpretation was unambiguous. Federal funds futures immediately repriced to reflect a 90% probability of a rate cut at the September Federal Open Market Committee meeting, up from roughly 70% before Powell's speech. This dramatic shift in expectations triggered an immediate reallocation of capital across asset classes, with risk assets being the primary beneficiaries and the US dollar experiencing notable weakness. A Broader Market Rally Takes Shape While Bitcoin's surge captured headlines, the positive sentiment extended far beyond the cryptocurrency market. Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, staged an even more impressive recovery, rebounding 8% after having endured a painful 12% correction in the preceding sessions. This outperformance by Ethereum suggested that investors were not merely buying Bitcoin as a hedge against monetary policy uncertainty, but were expressing renewed confidence in the broader digital asset ecosystem. Traditional financial markets also responded enthusiastically to Powell's dovish pivot. US equity indices gained approximately 1%, with technology stocks leading the advance. The yield on benchmark Treasury securities dropped to 4.27%, reflecting bond traders' expectations for a less restrictive monetary policy stance going forward. Gold, that traditional safe-haven asset and frequent competitor to Bitcoin for investor attention, rose 0.6%, demonstrating that the appetite for alternative stores of value remained robust even as risk sentiment improved. This synchronized movement across asset classes highlighted an important dynamic that has become increasingly evident in recent years: the growing correlation between cryptocurrency markets and traditional financial assets during periods of significant monetary policy shifts. While Bitcoin was originally conceived as an uncorrelated asset that would provide portfolio diversification benefits, its behavior during major macro events has increasingly mirrored that of other risk assets, particularly growth-oriented technology stocks. Understanding the Whale Dynamics Beneath the surface of the price action, on-chain data revealed fascinating insights into how different market participants positioned themselves ahead of Powell's speech. Most notably, Bitcoin whales – entities holding large quantities of the cryptocurrency – had been quietly accumulating during the recent downtrend. According to blockchain analytics, these major holders added approximately 16,000 BTC to their positions during the period of price weakness, suggesting that sophisticated investors saw value at lower levels and were positioning for exactly the type of policy-driven rally that ultimately materialized. This accumulation pattern by whales deserves closer examination, as it often serves as a leading indicator for future price movements. The fact that these large holders were adding to positions while retail investors were capitulating speaks to a divergence in market sentiment that often precedes significant trend changes. The 16,000 BTC accumulation represents over $1.8 billion at current prices, demonstrating serious conviction among institutional and high-net-worth investors about Bitcoin's medium-term prospects. The whale accumulation also highlights the maturation of Bitcoin markets. Unlike the wild speculation that characterized earlier cycles, current market dynamics show signs of more sophisticated trading strategies and longer-term investment horizons. These large holders appear to be treating Bitcoin less as a speculative vehicle and more as a legitimate asset class worthy of strategic allocation within diversified portfolios. The Federal Reserve's Delicate Balancing Act The enthusiasm surrounding Powell's dovish turn must be tempered with an understanding of the complex challenges facing the Federal Reserve. Some cryptocurrency strategists have sounded alarm bells, warning that a significant Bitcoin surge could potentially clash with the Fed's broader economic goals. If cryptocurrency markets experience excessive speculation leading to wealth effects that stimulate consumer spending, this could complicate the Fed's efforts to bring inflation back to its 2% target. This concern is not without merit. The cryptocurrency market's total capitalization now exceeds $2.5 trillion, making it large enough to have meaningful macroeconomic impacts. A sustained rally in digital assets could create wealth effects that filter through to the real economy, potentially reigniting inflationary pressures just as the Fed believes it has gained the upper hand in its fight against rising prices. This dynamic creates a fascinating feedback loop where the very monetary policy easing that benefits Bitcoin could ultimately be constrained by Bitcoin's success. Furthermore, the Federal Reserve must consider the international implications of its policy decisions. A weaker dollar resulting from rate cuts could have significant consequences for global trade and financial stability. Many emerging market economies have dollar-denominated debt, and a rapidly weakening dollar could create challenges for these nations. Additionally, other major central banks might be forced to adjust their own policies in response to Fed actions, potentially triggering a global easing cycle with unpredictable consequences. Technical Analysis and Market Structure From a technical perspective, Bitcoin's surge past $116,000 represents a significant development in market structure. The cryptocurrency had been trading in a descending channel for several weeks, with each rally attempt meeting selling pressure at lower highs. The Powell-induced breakout decisively violated this bearish pattern, suggesting a potential trend reversal is underway. However, technical indicators present a mixed picture that warrants careful consideration. The Bitcoin Bull Score Index, a composite metric that aggregates various momentum and sentiment indicators, has been signaling fading momentum despite the recent price surge. This divergence between price action and underlying momentum suggests that while the immediate reaction to Powell's speech was strongly positive, questions remain about the sustainability of the current rally. Volume patterns also deserve attention. The surge past $116,000 occurred on elevated but not exceptional volume, suggesting that while there was genuine buying interest, we haven't yet seen the kind of capitulation from bears or FOMO from sidelined buyers that typically characterizes major trend changes. This could mean that the market is still in the early stages of processing the implications of the Fed's policy shift, with more significant moves potentially ahead as participants fully digest the changing macro landscape. Support and resistance levels have also shifted following the breakout. The $114,000-$115,000 zone, which previously acted as resistance, should now serve as support on any pullbacks. Above current levels, the next major resistance lies around $120,000, which represents both a psychological level and the site of significant selling during previous rallies. How Bitcoin behaves around these key levels in coming sessions will provide important clues about the strength of the current uptrend. The Broader Implications for Cryptocurrency Adoption Beyond the immediate price implications, the Federal Reserve's policy shift could have profound effects on cryptocurrency adoption and development. Lower interest rates reduce the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets like Bitcoin, making them relatively more attractive compared to traditional fixed-income investments. This dynamic could accelerate institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies as portfolio diversifiers. Moreover, a more accommodative monetary policy environment could reignite interest in decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols, which had seen diminished activity during the period of rising rates. Lower rates in traditional finance make the yields available in DeFi more competitive, potentially driving renewed capital flows into these innovative financial platforms. This could create a virtuous cycle where increased DeFi activity drives demand for cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, which serves as the backbone for most DeFi applications. The changing monetary landscape also has implications for central bank digital currency (CBDC) initiatives. As traditional monetary policy tools become less effective in a low-rate environment, central banks might accelerate their exploration of CBDCs as alternative mechanisms for implementing monetary policy. While CBDCs could potentially compete with cryptocurrencies in some use cases, they might also serve to legitimize digital currencies more broadly, ultimately benefiting the entire ecosystem. Risk Factors and Considerations Despite the current optimism, several risk factors could derail Bitcoin's bullish momentum. First, the Federal Reserve's commitment to rate cuts is contingent on continued progress in reducing inflation. Any resurgence in price pressures could force the Fed to maintain or even increase rates, potentially triggering another leg down in cryptocurrency markets. Regulatory risks also remain omnipresent. While the regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies has generally improved in recent years, with the approval of Bitcoin ETFs and growing institutional participation, the potential for adverse regulatory actions remains. Any major regulatory crackdown, particularly in the United States or European Union, could quickly reverse current gains. Geopolitical tensions represent another wildcard. While Bitcoin has sometimes benefited from geopolitical uncertainty as investors seek alternatives to traditional financial systems, extreme events could trigger broad-based risk aversion that negatively impacts all speculative assets, including cryptocurrencies. The ongoing conflicts in various regions and tensions between major powers create an environment where sudden shocks remain possible. Technical vulnerabilities within the cryptocurrency ecosystem itself also warrant consideration. While Bitcoin's network has proven remarkably resilient over its history, the broader cryptocurrency space has experienced numerous hacks, exploits, and technical failures. Any major security breach or technical failure could undermine confidence and trigger selling pressure across digital assets. Market Psychology and Sentiment Dynamics The psychological aspect of the current rally deserves special attention. After months of ranging price action and failed breakout attempts, many market participants had grown pessimistic about Bitcoin's near-term prospects. The sudden reversal triggered by Powell's speech has likely caught many traders off-guard, potentially setting up a powerful short squeeze as bearishly positioned traders scramble to cover their positions. This shift in sentiment is already visible in various metrics. Funding rates in perpetual futures markets have turned positive, indicating that traders are willing to pay premiums to maintain long positions. Social media sentiment, as measured by various analytical tools, has shifted from predominantly bearish to cautiously optimistic. The fear and greed index, which had been mired in "fear" territory for weeks, has begun moving toward neutral readings. However, this rapid shift in sentiment also creates vulnerabilities. Markets that move too far, too fast often experience sharp pullbacks as early buyers take profits and late entrants get shaken out. The key for sustained upward movement will be whether the current rally can attract new capital from investors who have been waiting on the sidelines, rather than simply representing a reshuffling of existing positions. The International Perspective The Federal Reserve's policy shift has global implications that extend far beyond US borders. Other major central banks, including the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan, will need to carefully consider their own policy stances in light of the Fed's dovish turn. This could potentially trigger a synchronized global easing cycle, which would likely be highly supportive for risk assets including cryptocurrencies. For Bitcoin specifically, international dynamics are particularly important given its global nature. Demand from regions experiencing currency devaluation or financial instability has historically been a significant driver of Bitcoin adoption. If the Fed's rate cuts lead to dollar weakness, this could accelerate Bitcoin adoption in emerging markets as a hedge against local currency depreciation. The Asian markets, particularly China despite its official ban on cryptocurrency trading, remain influential in Bitcoin price dynamics. Any shifts in Chinese policy toward cryptocurrencies, or changes in how Chinese investors access Bitcoin through offshore channels, could have significant impacts on global prices. The recent rally has already seen increased activity from Asian trading hours, suggesting renewed interest from this important region. Looking Ahead: The Path Forward As markets digest the implications of Powell's Jackson Hole speech, the path forward for Bitcoin appears more constructive than it has in months. The combination of potential monetary easing, continued institutional adoption, and improving regulatory clarity creates a favorable backdrop for digital assets. However, the journey is unlikely to be smooth, with volatility remaining a defining characteristic of cryptocurrency markets. The September Federal Open Market Committee meeting looms large on the horizon. While markets have largely priced in a rate cut, the magnitude of the cut and the Fed's forward guidance will be crucial in determining whether the current rally has legs. A more aggressive easing stance than currently expected could propel Bitcoin toward new all-time highs, while a more cautious approach might lead to some near-term disappointment. Beyond monetary policy, several other catalysts could influence Bitcoin's trajectory in coming months. The continued development of the Lightning Network and other scaling solutions could enhance Bitcoin's utility as a payment method. Growing environmental consciousness and Bitcoin mining's increasing use of renewable energy could address one of the persistent criticisms of the cryptocurrency. Additionally, further institutional adoption, particularly from major corporations adding Bitcoin to their treasury reserves, could provide fundamental support for prices. Conclusion: A Pivotal Moment in Bitcoin's Evolution The surge past $116,000 following Jerome Powell's dovish signals represents more than just another rally in Bitcoin's volatile history. It potentially marks a pivotal moment in the cryptocurrency's evolution from speculative asset to recognized component of the global financial system. The fact that Federal Reserve policy now has such direct and immediate impacts on Bitcoin prices underscores how integrated cryptocurrencies have become with traditional financial markets. For investors and observers, the current environment presents both opportunities and challenges. The potential for significant gains exists, particularly if the Federal Reserve follows through with monetary easing and the global economy achieves the sought-after "soft landing." However, the risks remain substantial, and the cryptocurrency market's inherent volatility means that dramatic reversals remain possible. What seems clear is that Bitcoin has successfully weathered another period of adversity and emerged with renewed momentum. The quiet accumulation by whales during the recent downturn, followed by the explosive response to Powell's speech, demonstrates that demand for digital assets remains robust among sophisticated investors. As the financial world continues to evolve and adapt to technological innovation, Bitcoin's role appears increasingly assured, even if its exact price trajectory remains uncertain. The coming weeks and months will be crucial in determining whether this latest surge represents the beginning of a new bull cycle or merely another rally within a broader consolidation phase. What is certain is that Bitcoin continues to capture the imagination of investors worldwide, and its correlation with macro policy decisions ensures it will remain at the center of financial market discussions for the foreseeable future. As traditional monetary policy reaches its limits and financial innovation accelerates, Bitcoin stands ready to play an increasingly important role in the global financial ecosystem, with the $116,000 level potentially representing just another milestone on a much longer journey.
