I think $NEAR has already topped in the short term.

Since this post was published, Ansem is down 50%, while BTC is up 30%.
You decide for yourselves, but since you can hold something truly valuable, I’d rather not hold trash.
Don’t keep fueling this squeeze-type pattern.

That’s why I decided to exit the altcoins:
Now the spot trading volume of altcoins is already 4 times that of Bitcoin, and the market has become severely over-leveraged. That’s exactly why I’m taking profits. I sold ONDO with a 73% profit, and I’ve already exited XRP, waiting for a better entry point. In such a market environment, I have no interest in buying altcoins. The market is too hot—I expect a pullback.
Therefore, I started shorting BTC from $86,200 and also added short orders between $86,500 and $89,500.
My BTC position, as well as my ETH, CRCL, and COIN positions in Galactic Three, haven’t changed. I’m executing the long-term plan I laid out in the (Galactic Three Report).
When it’s still under $BTC $60,000, I expected it to rise to $88,000. After that wave of upside, I put forward the idea of a pullback to $79,000, and that’s still my next target. I’m setting up for this pullback!
And altcoins are always a great way to shift attention and a place to harvest liquidity. That’s why I exited the altcoins!

#BTC
$BTC: I shorted at $86,200 and plan to keep placing short orders between $86,500 and $89,500 to build a swing short position. My target is still $79,000. Once it reaches that level, I’ll decide whether to take profit on the shorts based on Bitcoin’s reaction, or continue holding the short position.
The deepest pullback range I’m considering is $69,000–$71,000, and it won’t go below this level.
So far, the short at $86,200 is working well, but I’ll take it step by step. First, watch $79,000, then see whether support holds and whether the bull market continues. Or, if there are signs of a deeper pullback, then I’ll make a further judgment.
Based on Bitcoin’s performance around $79,000, I can judge what the next expectation is: either it continues to run downward, or we see a reversal and the bull market continues, setting new local highs.
(Dr.profit believes BTC will pull back below 79,000. He has already cleared out the altcoins, holds mainstream spot, and shorts BTC to hedge.)

Good morning!
Both the long positions and spot holdings are being kept. Happy October! The monthly close is also quite favorable. The path to $87,500–$88,000 is still intact.
However, BTC is still in range-bound consolidation right now—no breakout, and no breakdown. A good sign is that BTC is continuously forming higher lows. But if we want to further increase positions or improve our spot exposure, we must first see a breakout, so we can get a more ideal and safer entry point.
But for now, overall it’s still safe. The BTC monthly close is holding above the range of the previous quarter, so the plan hasn’t changed.
Therefore, this wave of market action is expected to break above the quarterly high of $88,000, and stay above the quarterly high before the pullback—so that altcoins can start rising. Our expectation is that after a pullback appears around $88,000, the price will continue up to $93,000, and only then will a larger pullback occur.
For swing traders, the path to the marked price level is still intact.
But I’m not sure how long we still need to wait in this range of consolidation. Right now, the price is only moving up and down within the range. There’s also no notable news today, so there isn’t a catalyst to push a breakout.
So today’s high is $84,500, because BTC swept the London session’s low and completed the displacement. Whether it can continue rising depends on the trading volume at the New York open.
We can only wait for a breakout now. Yesterday morning’s volume was not enough to push it through. $85,200 is the key breakout zone—only if it breaks above there can we see meaningful upside.
Before that, the price will only maintain range-bound consolidation. But the long positions are safe.
(Vivian thinks BTC will first move up to the 88K–93K range and then undergo a significant pullback.)
5. Wave Theory Liuyu Dong
BTC October 1, 2026
If the purple line (1) doesn’t break below the green line dashed line, I think it’s a Blue 5-2 retracement.
Then Blue 5-3, Blue 5-4, Blue 5-5.
(2) But if it breaks below the green dashed line, then it’s considered that the entire Blue-line up move has ended and it has entered a correction.
The adjustment is 0.2--0.618 of the whole blue line. Then it rises again.
(Liuyu Dong’s view is the same as the past few days.)
II. Summary
Today, I mainly forwarded Dr.profit’s market analysis. He took profit on all altcoins, keeping only mainstream spot and crypto-related stocks, and is watching for a short-term pullback. Although we were bullish earlier, these past two days have been consolidating. With the weekend coming up and also a holiday in China, closing positions before the break is a pretty good choice. Most altcoins have risen quite a bit in the previous period, so taking profit now is also appropriate.
