SEC Greenlights ETF but Breakout failed! / Be Aware!!! 🎉 ETF Approval: A Cause for Celebration or Concern in Crypto?
Hello, traders! Today's update comes with a blend of excitement and a touch of caution. 🎭 The long-awaited ETF has been approved, slicing through the SEC's comedy of errors. Yet, amidst the celebrations, a sentiment poll reveals a split view: 32% are elated 🚀, 42% content but expected more 😐, and I'm with the 19% feeling a twinge of disappointment 😔. Let's dissect the chart and today's happenings to understand why.
📉🚦🤔 The Missed Breakout: Bitcoin's Resistance Conundrum
Despite the bullish news, Bitcoin failed to rally past the crucial support/resistance level. This yellow line isn't just any marker; it's the one I've been spotlighting since January 2023. 🎯 It's where Bitcoin's fate hangs in the balance.
🔍 Technical Analysis: Seeking Direction in the Crypto Winter Aftermath
Our journey through the crypto winter revealed strong buy signals at $16K, $20K, with a confirmation dip at $24K, offering numerous chances to go long. However, with the ETF news failing to push us beyond the pivotal level, it's time to ponder – are we gearing up for a major breakout, or is it wise to 'sell the news'? 🤔
📈🚦 Strategic Outlook: Navigating the Crypto Seas
Here's the strategy moving forward:
Buy the Breakout: If Bitcoin ascends over $48,200, it's a green light. ✅🚀
Sell the News: If it lingers under FWB:48K , caution is your best ally. 🛑📉
🔁 Shifting Focus: Ethereum's Emerging Narrative
Switching focus to Ethereum, the ETH/BTC chart hints at a shifting tide in altcoins, while Bitcoin dawdles at resistance. Whale psychology suggests that altcoins like Ethereum and Cardano could diverge from Bitcoin's path.
🔮 Anticipating the Halving: A Glance at Historical Patterns
In anticipation of April's halving, historical patterns imply we could witness Bitcoin soar to the $100K-$300K range. Yet, for now, the prudent move is to wait for a decisive breakout above $48,200 or brace for potential retracements to $42,800 or even $40,000. 🧐
🌐 Macro Perspective: The Bigger Picture in Crypto Dynamics
Keeping an eye on the macro scene, interest rates, and institutional moves post-ETF will be crucial. Remember, the market typically leads the news by six months. As we navigate these choppy waters, stay sharp and prepared to capitalize on both breakouts and pullbacks. 📊

The 'SELL THE NEWS' trade that got me the 'FXProfessor' nickname🎉📈 "Bitcoin ETF Buzz: To Sell or Not to Sell?" 🤔💰
Hi everyone!
🌟 Today is a special episode, a special post, and a special idea. First of all, Happy New Year 🎊 to all of you!
We have Bitcoin at 45K, nearing 46K 🚀, prompting us to consider our options.
Is it time to sell the news 🤷♂️💼 with the Bitcoin ETF drawing closer?
The market is rife with FUD 😨, and Jim Cramer's opinions can't be ignored. He suggests that the ETF approval might be an opportunity to sell, but history has often shown his predictions to be off-mark 🙈.
Let's delve into history for guidance 🧐📚. Back in December 2017, during the CME listing of Bitcoin futures, I made a significant sell decision. At that time, I wasn't on Tradingview but shared my thoughts on Facebook, predicting a manipulation in Bitcoin's price post-news 📉🗞️. Indeed, the 2017 all-time highs weren’t revisited for three years, validating my decision 🎯.
Check it:
Now, let's analyze the current scenario 🔍📈. With Cramer hinting at a potential sell opportunity following the ETF approval , it's crucial to scrutinize the charts 📊. I'm leaning towards a 50% chance that the market is poised for an upswing with the ETF's approval
✅📈. However, it’s essential to understand Bitcoin’s seasonality and cycles ⏳🔄. We're currently heading towards a halving year, with the next all-time high anticipated around the end of 2025 📅🚀. This differentiates the current situation from 2017.
My focus is on a key resistance level at $47,071 💹🔑, which will be instrumental in my decision to sell or hold. If this level is breached, we might witness a significant breakout 💥💸. However, should there be a surprise ETF rejection, a fallback to lower support levels is possible 😱📉.
To conclude, while my initial inclination was to sell the news, the current analysis suggests that might not be the most prudent course 🤔💭. Remember, each move in the crypto market requires careful analysis and an understanding of historical trends 🔬📉📈. Stay tuned for more insights and updates!
One Love,
