- Next days (next 1–7 days): Sideways:
we are still going to be in slightly choppy territories for at least another seven days as it stands.
▶ 05:24 - Next weeks (next 2–6 weeks): Expects up:
Now again, I spoke around in September anyway, now beginning October, very likely we're going to go on a next run to the upside.
▶ 15:26 - Next months (next 2–6 months): Expects up:
There's going to be a strong Q3 ending to a Q4 beginning for the markets, right? We're looking for a $90,000 to $100,000 Bitcoin.
▶ 15:31 - This cycle (next 6–18 months): Leans up (timeframe is our reading):
optimistic to say, hey, this could be the bottom of the bull market, right? We got a lot of money to make, right?
▶ 18:24
If this, then that
- If Bitcoin smashes through $79,000-$80,000, breaking the trend, then no target given (next weeks):
The only thing that changes that, right, is us really smashing through $79,000-$80,000. Then we're basically breaking through the trend and we're ready to go for new highs, right?
▶ 05:31 - If the market does nothing for the next 30 to 40 days, then no target given (next weeks, by next 30 to 40 days):
So, if the market doesn't do anything for the next 30 to 40 days, then I get bearish, right?

Levels named
- 90–100k: Target (strong Q3 ending into Q4 beginning):
There's going to be a strong Q3 ending to a Q4 beginning for the markets, right? We're looking for a $90,000 to $100,000 Bitcoin.
▶ 15:31 - 79–80k: Resistance (top trend line; breaking it opens new highs):
The only thing that changes that, right, is us really smashing through $79,000-$80,000. Then we're basically breaking through the trend and we're ready to go for new highs, right?
▶ 05:31 - 78–78.5k: Target (needed rip up to confirm the bear trap):
I don't expect it to go to new highs yet, but I need to see it rip up to at least $78,000-$78,500.
▶ 20:27 - 75–75.5k: Support (first buy zone within the current range):
We're looking for your first buys on Bitcoin anywhere between the $75,500-$75,000 range, right?
▶ 21:23 - 72k: Support (next major support zone):
$72,000 is still the next major support zone. However,
▶ 00:28 - 70k: Support (200-day moving average):
Do we want to test 200-day moving average right around $70,000, right?

Looks like $2,200 is the strong level.
