Economic Cycles
Normal Cycle Despite DespairEvery cycle, when the weekly 233 EMA crosses above the weekly 200 MA, shortly after there is a circa 30% drawdown. That is happening now and is normal but feels more intense because 30% of 100k is bigger than entire price range of 2017 cycle.
2013 - 2017 cycle
• 136 weeks from top to halving
• 48 weeks to 233/200 cross
• 37% dump from cross swing high
• 26 weeks to 2017 cycle top
2017 - 2021 cycle
• 126 weeks from 2017 top to halving
• 41 weeks to 233/200 cross
• 31% dump from cross swing high
• 42 weeks to cycle top
2021 - Now
• 127 weeks from top to halving
• 41 weeks to 233/200 cross
• 28% dump from cross swing high so far
• Estimted hitting upper band - late October early November if cycle follows previous
Bought more BTC last night at 81.1k
Welcome To The Long Awaited BTC Bear Market Fade the trend at your own risk.. It's always a good idea to SELL into WEAKNESS, and BUY into STENGTH.
The daily btc chart is confirmed bearish. Only the monthly and weekly chart are still bullish, but if the downtrend continues on the daily trend, then it will make its way to the Weekly chart and eventually the monthly chart.. This is going to happen slowly or a mega dump could speed it up. but the target remain the same.
We were all promised a "SUPER-CYCLE" and alot of people are still riding the narrative fueled by social media and constantly getting rekt . Trust ONLY what you see on charts ONLY !!.
I already started shorting the market way back since January when i stopped listening to the hype and started focusing on trading the trend on the chart as soon my trend indicator gave me a sell signal on the daily timeframe, everyone taught i was crazy in the chats for my bearish call outs. So far its been the BEST DECISION EVER !!
If you want to buy anything, just make sure its on Spot, you buy with the mindset that you are buying to hold until at least 2027 .There is no magical super cycle..The party is over until something crazy bullish happens or trump does something that sparks a new rally.
Reworked Kaspa Weekly and Daily Cycles using KAS/USDReworked Cycle counts on Kaspa/USD chart
Using Fiance Camels "How to set up Cyvle count on a specific Asset", I reworked the Dailt (DCL) and Weekly (WCL) counts.
DCL form in 60 days (+/- 10%), and there are 5 DCL within the larger WCL (D/WCL-DCL-DCL-DCL-DD/Wcl)
WCLs are ~ 32 WKs (+/- 10%)

Lunar Signal Generator My Lunar signal generator uses a sinusoidal wave which is matched in frequency to the sinusoidal motion of the moon. The indicator is based on research which suggests that there are increased returns on days surrounding the new moon and decreased returns on days surrounding the full moon.
The indicator represents a two week trading strategy and prints buy signals before the new moon, and prints sell signals on the full moon. If used as a trading strategy the 5 & 10 year win rates are 70%, profitability is dependent on your choice of stoploss. I suggest a 9% Stoploss however this is discretionary. Can be used on any financial product, however it works best on large cap equities.
Just place on any chart, and trade according to the buy and sell signals

Weekly Review – Week 10, Prepping for Week 11### **Weekly Review – Week 10, Prepping for Week 11**
#### **Market Context: Higher Time Frames Still Bullish, But Short-Term Consolidation**
- **Quarterly:** Q1 2025 remains in expansion mode, continuing the pattern of higher highs and higher lows over the last six quarters. Price is currently trading above Q4 2024, which acted as a stall candle—reinforcing that the **higher time frames remain in a bullish breakout phase**.
- **Monthly:** February followed through with **bullish momentum**, closing above January’s high. However, the long wick to the upside signals **rejection of higher prices**.
- **Monthly imbalance at 2780**, aligning with **October 2024's STH-HH at 2790**—a key **Point of Interest (POI)** for long setups if price retraces.
#### **Weekly Chart: Defined Range & Potential for Deeper Pullback**
- **Week 10 printed an inside bar**, following Week 9’s engulfing move—**creating both a swing high and swing low**.
- **Weekly Equilibrium at 2745** – Optimal long positions may form below this level, providing a **higher probability setup in discount pricing**.
- Given the defined range, this supports a case for **short-term shorts**, with **long setups likely to emerge at lower levels**.
#### **Daily Chart: Expansion, Consolidation, Breakdown – Is 2830 Weak?**
- **Recent Structure:** Price expanded, consolidated, and then broke down, forming a **swing low at 2830**.
- This swing low **failed to push higher and take out 2955**, which would have confirmed continued bullish structure.
- **Daily consolidation zone at 2935-2940** was the origin of the last **bearish expansion**. If price revisits this area, it becomes a **prime shorting opportunity**, targeting a break of 2830.
- A break below **2830 confirms short-term bearish control**, increasing the probability of a move toward **weekly range equilibrium at 2750**.
---
### **Trading Plan for the Week Ahead**
🔹 **Short Bias Above Recent Swing High at 2930**
- Looking for shorts within the **Daily Bearish POI (2935-2940)**.
- If price rejects and moves down, **targets = 2830**, with potential for an extended move into **weekly equilibrium at 2750**.
🔹 **Longs Not Off the Table – But Caution Needed**
- **Higher time frames remain bullish**, so we are not married to short positions.
- If price shows **strong buying interest we will re-evaluate.
🔹 **Key Events to Watch in Week 11**
- **CPI on Wednesday** and **PPI on Thursday** – These could be **major catalysts for volatility**.
- **Post-NFP reaction was muted**, so we anticipate **stronger price moves following economic data this week**.
---
### **Execution Mindset: Trade the Plan, Stay in Control**
🚨 **No Bias Marriages – We Execute, Then Evaluate**
- Every position is **planned, executed, and then reviewed**.
- **If a setup fails, we adjust. If a setup succeeds, we analyze why.**
🎯 **Focus for March:**
- **Refining the scaling-in model**—balancing profit-taking while managing drawdowns.
- **Strengthening market structure analysis** across multiple time frames.
- **Sticking to daily swing trades** at key reversal points (springs & upthrusts on lower time frames).
🔹 **Let’s see what price prints. We trade what we see, not what we expect.**

Russel 2000 Compared to General MarketTVC:RUT has continued to sell off since my last couple posts and I believe we could see a huge market correction this year if price doesn't look to stop selling.
The next play on RUT I would like to see price pullback to the last breakout zone ($2,200) to confirm a continuation in trend
This play also looks very familiar to the 2022 selloff with equal highs to our current price structure. Seeing that AMEX:SPY is at a higher high tells me there is market-wide divergence and a topping pattern could be in play.
Now when we add CRYPTOCAP:BTC and $OTHER to the mix we can see bitcoin actually tops out first while Alts and SPX look to make one more leg up before crashing out.
The Trend Reader at the lower tab has topped out and has a bearish crossing in the overbought zone indicating we can see a long term play to the downside.
TSLA SELLING PRESSURE MAY REDUCE AS SHARE PRICE DIPS INTO SUPPORTesla’s support level between 200 and 260 may act as a buffer to hold the share price amid ongoing selling pressure. Will there be rejections on TSLA in coming week(s)?

Weekly Bearish divergence...Confirmed on BTC dominance! I think the next move for dominance will be a very sharp fall to 57.5%-52.25% these levels are it's biggest upper support. I am of the opinion these supports will not hold long but their is the possibility of a BSR being approved by the US that could send BTC dominance to a higher high. Be prepared and God speed! #NFA
QQQ: Capacity of the PullbackThis chart presents a Fibonacci channel projection based on key swing points, including a Higher High, Higher Low, an All-Time High (ATH), and a current Lower Low.
The levels of Fibonacci channel that market should abide by for the nearest future, are defined by: HL & LL - sets direction (fib 0 line); applied to ATH (fib 1 line). The derived fib ratios help to anticipate future price movements acting as key resistance where the pullback (reaction to prior impulsive bearish wave) might reach in respect to its structural capacity. B&W dashed line indicates a potential inflection point where the price could either reverse or extend further into supply zones.
ETH in a LIVERMORE Accumulation cylinder.What is a Livermore accumulation cylinder?
The Livermore Accumulation Cylinder gained fame through the insights of Jesse Lauriston Livermore, a Massachusetts-born American investor celebrated as one of the most exceptional traders in history. His theory revolves around what is often referred to as an ascending broadening wedge, a phenomenon that unfolds over extended time frames.
What is an accumulation cylinder with a widening mouth?
First recognized by the iconic trader Jesse Livermore, who essentially laid the groundwork for technical analysis, the 'Accumulation Cylinder with Widening Mouth' is a unique and gradually developing pattern. In this scenario, the price oscillates between two diverging lines, creating a tension that can lead to a significant upward breakout.
Is Ethereum resolving its own Livermore cylinder?
This isn’t the first instance of cryptocurrency showcasing a Livermore cylinder: Ethereum might currently be in the midst of resolving its own version, and Bitcoin may have experienced a similar pattern back in 2017. While the charts may seem to align quite well, it’s crucial to remember that they are not a guarantee of future outcomes. Instead, they can serve as a valuable guide for managing risk, setting expectations, and establishing realistic profit targets. Many newcomers to crypto dream of achieving a 100x return, but as demonstrated by Bitcoin whales, true profits often come from strategically trimming and adjusting their positions, making only a few calculated moves from cycle to cycle.
BLX and the Global EconomyUsing as a reference tool to compare the growth of Bitcoin (BLX chart) with the Global Economy as a metric and finding a solid bottom for the Global Economy metric at the 1.618 retracement in late September 2023
BLX (orange/white) candles
Global Economy (blue/white candles)
Global Economy Includes:
-------------------------------
US total assets
Central Bank Assets for Euro Area * Euro to US Dollar Rate less Reverse Repurchase Agreement (Reverse REPOs) less Liabilities and Capital: Liabilities: Deposits with F.R. Banks, Other Than Reserve Balances: U.S. Treasury, General Account
China Central Bank Balance Sheet * Chinese Yuan to United States Dollar
Total Assets for Japan * Japanese Yen to United States Dollar
NOTE: I have never tried to run a compare in Tradingview so I hope that the BLX compare continues to run alongside with the Global Economy. If this does not run in tandem I will update with monthly snapshots as a feel that this is an important metric in measuring how closely BTC could outpace or under-perform the Global Economy as whole.
