$BTC Historically, price has traded significantly higher 220+ days after the U.S. midterm elections.

Across the previous cycles, price consistently moved higher over this period, suggesting that the next few weeks could offer an opportunity to establish a higher low before the next major leg up.

I expect this pattern to repeat.

A higher low over the coming weeks, followed by a move above 100K within the next 200 days.

I'm buying every dip.

$SOL is in a bull market

There'll be corrections and every time, people will call for new lows

But SOL will just keep going up just like we saw in the last bull run

$BTC Interesting.

Looking at the past four monthly opens, we can see that they all played out in a very similar way.

First, price trended lower into the monthly close, which was then followed by an inverse move right after the start of the new month.

Those reversals produced an average move of roughly 7% to the upside within the first few days after mO.

This time around seems to be no different.

We are once again seeing a slow bleed ahead of the monthly close, and if this pattern continues to play out, we could see a move back into the $80k region over the course of next week.

$BTC Looking for a small pump into the Monthly Close.

We've created some liquidity around the 78.7k-79.2k region, Which should ideally get taken out before the month closes.

From there, I'm looking for a Sweep of the Current Lows at the start of Next Month to mark the local bottom.

The Key Zone where we should ideally tap into is the 74.9k-72.9k region.

That's where we have the Monthly FVG along with the Previous Yearly Low, Which should act as a strong Support Zone on revisit.

Expecting the local bottom to be formed right after the monthly open and inside the next weekly session.

$BTC | Monthly

Today is the monthly close, so here's what I'm looking at

On the Monthly Chart, We saw a Bullish CHoCH last month when we closed above the 82.8k high back in September.

That close flipped the Monthly Structure from Bearish to Bullish. And following these major trend changes, We see a pullback before continuation.

Now, We've seen the current month retracing back lower, Giving us that necessary Bullish Pullback before the next leg towards the upside.

Right now, We have a Bullish FVG sitting between the 74.9k & 66.9k region. This is the ideal zone for price to tap into before continuing higher.

Historically, During the Bear Market, We've seen that before every major pump, Price first took out untapped FVGs before continuing its trend towards new lows.

I believe we could see something similar here, Except this time, We should trend towards the upside after the pullback as the Monthly Structure has already flipped Bullish.

So a sweep into this FVG is something I'm keeping an eye on at the start of next month before Longing my Longs.

$BTC We mostly bottomed shortly after the Mid-Terms.

This time, however, we're seeing a different setup. BTC has already bottomed before the Mid-Terms and has been dumping into the event for the last 4 weeks.

From a structural perspective, we've already swept most of the meaningful liquidity sitting towards the downside, while consistently front-running the highs and leaving a significant amount of buy-side liquidity untouched.

This creates an interesting imbalance in the liquidity profile.

The market has spent weeks pricing in fear, forcing people out of their positions and building a bearish bias while the liquidity resting above remains largely unclaimed.

Now, that Buy-Side Liquidity becomes the next logical target.

Fear is leading Greed right now and that's exactly when we get the most aggressive reversals to catch the majority off guard.

$BTC Swing Long #3

I'm holding this trade until new highs or invalidation...

This position currently isn't looking great and is sitting in drawdown. At this point, it looks increasingly likely that this one could get stopped out. This was a much earlier entry compared to my other swing long positions, so naturally, it has more room to fluctuate before the thesis plays out.

Nonetheless, this isn't the time to panic or close the long simply because price is moving against the position. My overall HTF expectations haven't changed, and I'm not going to let short-term volatility dictate my longer-term positioning.

The recent pullback, driven by the Binance hack and the growing bearish narrative surrounding the market, doesn't change my expectation of new highs in 2027.

In fact, price developing a bearish narrative into the U.S. midterms and my 4–6th pivot is something I'm paying close attention to. Historically, bearish narratives into these periods have often aligned with important market lows. If sentiment remains bearish going into the pivot, I wouldn't be surprised to see it mark a local low before a push to the upside.

If this position gets stopped out next week around my pivot, I'll be looking for another opportunity to establish a swing long. The plan would be to use a 10% invalidation and target new ATHs.

Nothing has changed with the bigger picture. I'll either hold this position until new highs or respect the invalidation and look for a re-entry.

The $6.3B Binance hack didn't break $BTC

The selling started with Amazon and Intel's after-hours drop, before the hack was public.

Then futures outsold spot about 7 to 1 as new shorts and hedges piled in, and dealers likely short gamma into this morning's expiry could have added to it.

Now we are down near the 50w ($76.1k), which we want to see act as support here.

Zoom out.

$BTC This is actually incredibly bullish.

I've been comparing the current price action to the early stages of the previous bull market, and the similarities are hard to ignore.

Back then, just like now, sentiment became extremely greedy following the initial breakout from the bottoming range.

That optimism quickly disappeared when an unexpected event triggered a sharp selloff, sending BTC back toward its previous ATH.

Now we're seeing something very similar.

Yesterday's Binance hack triggered another wave of panic, causing the Fear & Greed Index to drop sharply after weeks of elevated optimism.

Interestingly, sentiment is now approaching levels similar to those seen during the previous cycle's selloff.

And looking at what happened afterward, I think there's a good chance we're getting close to a local bottom again.

My expectation is that BTC will gradually recover from here before eventually breaking out into another strong move higher.
I am bidding.

$BTC This time likely isn't any different...

Every major negative news event or crisis following the initial rally after a bear market bottom has historically marked the formation of a major higher low before continuation to the upside.

This doesn't necessarily mean the exact higher low bottom is already in, but we're getting really close.

In a bull market, bad news and FUD typically create some of the best buying opportunities.

Bitcoin spot ETFs have now recorded FOUR consecutive days of net inflows.

That's approximately $440.8M flowing into the funds since October 26.

Yesterday added another $17.2M, led by BlackRock's IBIT with $12.8M.

The positive streak is encouraging, especially after the massive $635.6M outflow recorded on October 22.

One thing worth noting: daily inflows have been getting smaller.

We need to see whether institutional demand picks up again or starts fading.

Either way, the money has started flowing back into Bitcoin ETFs.

$BTC I was wrong in expecting the push into the 90K region before forming the major re-accumulation range.

This doesn't change much of the overall plan, but price will need to consolidate and range around these levels before making another push towards the highs.

FUD like this happens every cycle and typically marks the formation of a major higher low.

I remain in all my swing longs. This isn't the time to be closing positions. Let the dust settle and look for opportunities.

The HTF trend hasn't changed. The bottom is in, and I expect a new ATH next year.

The FTX exchange crash marked the bottom for Bitcoin in the 2022 bear market.

The Binance hack will mark the bottom for BTC in the 2026 bear market.

Position accordingly.

the greatest trader in human history

Chinese stock market is collapsing.

Whales bought 2,573 $BTC worth $202 million today.

While retail is panicking, whales are buying the dip!!

The Binance situation is now affecting other exchanges.

India's CoinDCX has moved its futures market into REDUCE-ONLY mode after Binance's security incident disrupted a key liquidity provider.

Traders can still close positions and manage existing margin, but they can't open new positions or increase existing bets.

CoinDCX says customer funds, deposits and withdrawals are unaffected.

This is a good example of how interconnected crypto liquidity actually is.

A disruption at one major exchange can quickly affect trading conditions elsewhere.

BINANCE HACKER PREPARING TO LAUNDER FUNDS

The hacker just moved 17.26K $ETH ($38.82M) to a new wallet, preparing to launder funds via Tornado Cash and other mixers.

The attacker still holds 480.72K $ETH (~$1.08B) that cannot be frozen.

This is Exactly where you Buy $BTC

Fear naturally kicks in when you see the price going lower than your expectations.

But that fear is the reason why you know everyone else is in this same condition.

Most people are selling because the pain of watching their position go red becomes greater than their conviction.

And that's exactly what creates the opportunity.

When sentiment is extremely bearish, liquidity gets flushed, weak hands start capitulating and the crowd becomes more focused on protecting capital than looking for value.

You don't buy simply because price is going down.

You buy when that fear brings price into a level where the risk is clearly defined.

The market will always feel the worst right before it starts feeling better.

The best entries rarely feel safe.

They feel uncomfortable because everyone else is looking for a reason to sell.
