BTC Bullish Breakout of 2024's Parallel ChannelToday we broke out of the parallel channel that Bitcoin has been in since March 2024. Waiting for the next daily candle to close above today's high which will confirm this breakout - this will indicate that BTC is on it's way to retest the previous all-time-high. a break back into the channel would negate this breakout and possibly be a "fakeout" for the next leg down. by nickjasonsheehan1
BTC USD Update"New low in from yesterday's daily low fractal 66629 in Coinbase. Absolutely massive buying volume on the order flow software behind us and just cruising into TP 6,7 ahead. Trailing stop behind under daily fractal lows. What a beautiful 2 weeks of rally. Let's see if we get weekend madness on top of that. I'll keep posting.Longby themarketknight0
BTC/USD breaks trend linebitcoin was testing its old all time high made in 2021 at $69K at the time of writing. If it can hold above here, then it may soon challenge this year's all-time high of $73.8K next. Can it get there? Key short-term support is now see around $67.5K which will need to hold to sustain this latest attempt to break out. By Fawad Razaqzada, market analyst with FOREX.comby FOREXcom113
BITCOIN Takes A Dump!As previously stated. Are Buy above the level $60,000 has led to the major resistance of $68,000-$69,000. I believe will will have a major rejection leading to a plummeting fall towards $65,000 and below $60,000. Any break through $59,000-$56,000 could lead to a triggering fall towards $48,000. If bitcoin reacts negatively with the $48,000 support, this could consequently put us at a liquidation area of around $42,000-$38,500 This is just a prediction, please be safe trading. Good luck!Shortby R2CTrading3939107
Bitcoin Declining Broadening Wedge & $70kBitcoin price is attempting to break out of a declining broadening wedge pattern while also testing horizontal resistance at $70k. Bitcoin first reached $70k in 2021, failed to move higher, and made a low near $15k in 2022 before rallying back up to $70k again earlier this year. Since then, price has mostly trended between $55-70k while forming a declining broadening wedge pattern in the process. When price breaks above the upper line of a wedge you can expect price to move higher. When price breaks below the lower line of a wedge you can expect price to move lower. Right now we have price pushing above the upper wedge line and back to testing the $70k level again. If price starts pushing above the $70k level here it will likely be the start of the next move higher for Bitcoin and into new all-time high territory. Recent moves higher in crypto and crypto-related stocks seem to be based around an assumption that Trump will win. While the Biden/Harris administration have been vocal critics of crypto for nearly 4 years with heavy regulation, Team Trump are all on board and supporters of digital assets. A Trump win would likely lead to a clearing of roadblocks that have helped to cap Bitcoin price under $70k for the past 4 years. Best strategy with crypto is to ignore everything except Bitcoin. Buy some regularly, don't think about trying to trade it, and hold for the long-run. Best performing asset of the past decade while also seeing a faster adoption rate than any other technology including internet and cell phones.Longby PrepForProfit2

Bitcoin's Last Stand: Can It Break Above $68.3k?MARKETSCOM:BITCOIN has finally reached the weekly block—the last level before ATHs. Is this the moment we’ve been waiting for? I believe it is. For the first time, it’s printing a bullish weekly signal at this critical level. The last attempts, in June and July, were merely bounces without the momentum or reversal signals needed to push higher. This time feels different. We have an expansion candle on the weekly, and hopefully, it will close above the $68.3k level. If we compare the timeline to the previous breakout before the $30k surge, this consolidation phase seems to be coming to an end. I think the odds are now better for an upward move. I’ll revisit this chart at the end of the week—we still need a solid close. If everything aligns, November could be a strong month, potentially pushing toward $81k!Longby ZelfTrade1

Mt. Gox Delays Repayment Deadline, Bitcoin RalliesMarket Update - October 18, 2024 Mt. Gox has delayed its bitcoin repayment deadline by a year: This delay is viewed as a greenshoot for bitcoin prices, with traders arguing it reduces selling pressure on the broader market. The price of bitcoin was just short of $67,000 by Thursday afternoon. US spot bitcoin ETFs saw notable net inflows of more than $555 million on Monday, the highest since June: Spot ether ETFs also saw $17 million in inflows, continuing positive momentum for both investment vehicles. Coinbase is pursuing partial summary judgment to obtain SEC documents about crypto regulation: The regulator has previously delayed in responding to a Freedom of Information request made by the exchange over the same issue. US spot bitcoin ETFs saw $18.66 million in net outflows on Tuesday, led by Fidelity’s FBTC, which recorded $48.82 million in withdrawals: BlackRock’s IBIT was the only ETF to see inflows, with $39.57 million entering the fund. Monochrome will introduce Australia's first spot ETH ETF on Tuesday, following on from the launch of its spot Bitcoin ETF in August: Notably, the Monochrome ether ETF will allow both cash and in-kind redemptions, which could garner interest from institutional investors. 🌶️ Topic of the Week: Chiliz (CHZ): Bringing Blockchain and Crypto to Sports Fandom 👉 Read more hereby Gemini113
if you use technical analysis you owe a lot to these individualsTHE HISTORY AND ORIGIN OF TECHNICAL ANALYSIS I am a firm believer that as investors/traders we need to know the historic and major events that have occurred in this magnificent field of ours that have shaped how it is today. Today i want to shed light of knowledge on the history/origin of technical analysis as this is a widely used concept that is used by majority of traders/investors to analyse/predict future market moves through the evaluation of historic market data especially price, volume and implied volatility and many have made a living and good returns on the financial markets using the various technical analysis tools and concepts but not knowing where it all started. many do believe that technical analysis was initiated by Charles Dow in the 1800s but this is not true as evidence of Technical Analysis dates far back as to the 17th century from basic and underdeveloped methods as compared to the more evolved ones used in Morden-day times. Let's get straight into it: 17th CENTURY -- 1. the Dutch east India Company traders The Dutch East India Company which was formed in the Dutch Republic, Amsterdam in 1602 which is known to be the first publicly traded company, trading mainly in spices, Indigo and cotton, which gave way to the first financial market the Amsterdam Stock Exchange. Here is when the earliest forms of technical analysis came to show when the Dutch traders would graph record/keep track of the various price fluctuations of their stock but in a basic form. 2. José or Joseph Penso de la Vega still in the 17th century a Spanish diamond merchant, philosopher and poet best known also as Joseph de la Vega, born 1650 in Spain also considered one of the earliest financial market expert published a marvellous financial read called "Confusion De Confusiones" which provided detailed awareness of how the Dutch financial market participants operated focusing on their illogical behaviour and price patterns they used further more hinting on technical analysis with his descriptions of technical analysis concepts such as puts, calls and pools which are still relevant in Morden-day technical analysis and how he used these in the Amsterdam Stock Exchange. 18th CENTURY Homma Munehisa Homma Munehisa, born 1724 in Sakata, Japan a Japanese rice merchant trading in Dōjima Rice Exchange developed what i consider the most popular form of technical analysis which proved high standards of acceptance as traders/investors world-wide still use it in modern-day times, he initiated the Japanese Candlestick/ K-Line (primarily known as Sakata Charts), which is a price chart that's represents the open, close, high and low prices of a security for a specific time period which was introduced in his book "THE FOUNTAIN OF GOLD- THE THREE MONKEY RECORD OF MONEY" which also shared insights about chart patterns, markets trends and traders human emotions. LATE 19TH AND EARLY 20TH CENTURY Charles Henry Dow considered father of technical analysis born 1851 Charles Dow is the one that first to induct modern-day technical analysis in the United States Of America, he was an American journalist who co-founded Dow Jones and Company which is a publishing firm along ide Edward Davis Jones and Charles Bergstresser. He also co-founded The Wall Street Journal which its first publication was on July 8, 1889 which became the the most reputed financial publication and first of it's kind which was a series of texts that discussed his observations of the U.S stock market especially the industrial and transportation stocks listed in the U.S stock market this gave way to the Dow Jones Industrial Average and Dow Jones Transportation Average, he also held a strong believe that "the stock market as a whole was a reliable measure of overall business conditions within the economy" he also developed the Dow Jones Theory which states that the market has 3 trend phases which was a significant breakthrough in technical analysis as this theory aids traders/investors in identifying the major, intermediate and minor trends in the market. after his passing many other technical analysis developers came from studying his work/publications which include the likes of William Hamilton who later become the editor of the wall street journal, others notable followers of his work include Robert Rhea, George Shaefer and Richard Russel. another prominent figure in the development of modern-day technical analysis is Ralph Nelson Elliot born 1871 whose financial career started as an accountant, Mr. Elliot was famously known for studying 75 years of historical stock market data and recording his research and findings manually as computerized systems where limited which i believe is very outstanding. his work is based on a theory that market movements are not random and that the markets moves in specific trends and patterns (waves) which are influenced by traders/investors psychology. his wave theory gained traction in March 13, 1935 when he stated that the the market will make a bottom and indeed the following trading day the Dow Jones Industrial Average made it's lowest closing price, which proved his Elliot Wave Theory to be a significant technical anaysis concept. 20th CENTURY Technical Indicators with the aid of computerized systems technical analysis evolved into technical indicators which are computer systems backed by mathematical calculations of price data which apply these calculations to analyse large volumes of market data incorporated by algorithms which overlap on charts to forecast future price movements. hope you have a fun read and learned something new. “In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn.” Phil Collins put together by Pako Phutietsile as @currencynerd Educationby currencynerd1

18 Oct Options Delivery Data11,000 BTC options expired with a Put Call Ratio of 0.78, a maximum pain point of $64,000 and a notional value of $1.26 billion. 138,000 ETH options expired with a Put Call Ratio of 0.61, a maximum pain of $2,500 and a notional value of $360 million. While Bitcoin has rallied significantly this week, Ether's rally has been more feeble, with Ether options expiry positions this week just under 30% of Bitcoin's. In terms of implied volatility, ETH's flat option IV around January is just 4% higher than BTC's, and continues to go lower. Thinking back to July ETH ETF through , can really be said to take advantage of the timing, the kind of vibrant, everything is even the realm of hair, still in front of us.

BTC Tests SupportYesterday, I was looking for a retest of the $66,550 level as support, which happened. From a TA perspective, that means that price should head to $70,000 resistance next, but we know that charts are just ideas and not prophecy. Regardless, that’s what I will be watching for.Longby ScottMelker2
10/17 Give us a healthy pull back. Overview: The AMEX:SPY continues its upward trajectory, hitting new all-time highs. The bullish momentum is supported by more companies exceeding earnings expectations this week. Despite rising unemployment and persistent inflation, corporations are posting record profits. It’s a reminder that the stock market and the economy don’t always move in sync. The NASDAQ:QQQ , representing big tech, is hovering near its all-time high but struggling to break through. The Federal Reserve reported fewer initial jobless claims at 241k, a decrease from last week, but still higher than the average over the last three years. The CME Watch Tool now indicates a 9.3% chance of no rate cut in the next meeting on November 7th, influenced by these labor market figures. Meanwhile, a surge in BTC ETF purchases has been observed throughout the week. Yesterday, BlackRock acquired $309 million worth, nearly tripling its average of $117.4 million. This marks their fourth consecutive day of buying. Even Grayscale joined the action. Altogether, $1.854 billion flowed into BTC ETFs this week. This could either mark the peak of the sixth bullish wave or set up a breakout from the year-long bullish flag pattern. BTC saw an 8% rise this week, making it one of the top five best-performing weeks of the year, including February's pump following BTC ETF approval. However, the volume remains lower than expected. For a full trend confirmation, we need institutional whales to join in. If we are indeed breaking out of the bullish flag, the volume should match levels seen at the beginning of the bull run in October and November 2023, when weekly volumes were 80-100% higher than this week. BTC Technical Analysis: W: On the weekly chart, BINANCE:BTCUSDT candle wick has reached July's open and close but hasn't tested its highs around $70k. A close above $68.2k this week would be a bullish signal. We still have Friday, but the weekend isn’t likely to bring much action. D: BTC has been at the upper Bollinger Band for four consecutive days without any correction or pullback. The candles are reminiscent of the week of September 3rd, which saw an 8.5% pump, followed by a fake breakout and an additional 4.54% rise before a sharp decline wiped out all gains within ten days. A healthy pullback could target the $64-68k range—but of course, the bullish sentiment says, "No pullbacks on the way to the moon!" 4h: The current pump started at the key 2024 level of $62.7k, rising in three waves. The third push had lower volume, signaling a price-volume divergence. RSI has exceeded 70 twice and is now trending down, showing divergence with the price. On-Balance Volume (OBV) and Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) also indicate divergence. Without a clear shooting star candle with high volume, nothing is confirmed yet. We might see some sideways action over the weekend before a possible breakout on Sunday evening. 1h: Bearish. Alts Relative to BTC: ETH, SOL, and NEAR are showing weakness. None have reached their July peaks like BTC, and they have all pulled back after this week’s pump. Quick question: Does MKR have a bottom? Bull Case: If we continue breaking out of the bull flag, the pump could extend into next week, with potential gains of another 6-8%. If Trump wins and crypto rallies, rates could be cut in November and December, bringing them down to 4.25-4.50%. Bear Case: We could continue oscillating within the $58-70k range, and we are currently at the upper end. Fear and Greed Index: Currently at 58, still Neutral, but it touched the Greed level of 60 yesterday.by EvgenCapital1
