On Bitcoin

Changed since their last video: cycle flipped down to up.

  • Next weeks (next 2–6 weeks): Leans up (timeframe is our reading): I can easily see that once we get past this big opex day, that kind of situation playing out. ▶ 12:07 Said again while their call of 8 Dec 2025 was open, so it counts once; that call was a draw: 91.6k when said, 92.9k on 7 Jan 2026 (+1.4%), under the 2.5% it takes to count.
  • Next months (next 2–6 months): Leans up: So the upside bounce here is 150k over the next few months potentially in Q1 or early Q2 like April. ▶ 07:14 Said again while their call of 6 Oct 2025 was open, so it counts once; that call was wrong: 123.4k when said, 78.8k on 3 Feb 2026 (−36.1%).
  • This cycle (next 6–18 months): Expects up: I'm still bullish on Bitcoin and you know Ethereum and Salana and stuff long term. ▶ 31:31 Said again while their call of 6 Oct 2025 was open, so it counts once; that call was wrong: 123.4k when said, 85.6k on 6 Oct 2026 (−30.7%).

If this, then that

  • If daily close at $89,000, breaking the downtrend line and the 20-day EMA, then no target given (next weeks): let's say if we get a daily close at $89,000, not a [ __ ] wick, a daily close at $89,000, that breaks the downtrend line. ▶ 12:26
  • If losing the key support line, then no target given (next months): lose that line and it is goblin town, man. ▶ 07:31

Levels named

  • 150k: Target (upside bounce target in Q1 or early Q2): So the upside bounce here is 150k over the next few months potentially in Q1 or early Q2 like April. ▶ 07:14
  • 102k: Resistance (350-day moving average, near the 50-week MA, called the danger zone): it's likely to rally to the 350day moving average 102K in January. ▶ 07:56
  • 89k: Resistance (a daily close above breaks the downtrend line and the 20-day EMA): let's say if we get a daily close at $89,000, not a [ __ ] wick, a daily close at $89,000, that breaks the downtrend line. ▶ 12:26

Their own position: Holding. Anyway, Bitcoin long still open slightly in the red right now.

On Ethereum

No change since their last video.

Views

  • This cycle (next 6–18 months): Expects up: I'm still bullish on Bitcoin and you know Ethereum and Salana and stuff long term. ▶ 31:31 Said again while their call of 11 Oct 2025 was open, so it counts once; that call was wrong: 3.83k when said, 2.51k on 11 Oct 2026 (−34.6%).

Their own position: Not said.

Dates named

  • $27 billion Bitcoin options expiry, seen as opening the door to a relief rally on 26 Dec 2025: 27 billion in options expire on December 26th. When we get past OPEX day on Friday, that's probably what opens the door for some kind of relief rally.
