To all the crypto fans out there: you are aware, that the rest of the market is at all-time highs, right? What will happen to your useless speculative coins that aren't used for anything other than gambling on price, once the real market sells off during a recession?
Lastly, let's all get something straight, your chart lines, your moving averages, your RSI, your MACD, your other technical indicators, your waves 5-100, your Wyckoff and the rest of all the TA in the world cannot stop this $BTC liquidity train from new highs in 2026. Too much capital is coming and there's nothing lines on a chart can do about it 🎯
They strip the ego. They punish laziness. They expose every bad habit you disguised as “conviction.”
In a bear, you learn:
risk management isn’t optional
cash is a position
patience is a weapon
being early can feel the same as being wrong
But here’s the part most people miss…
Bull markets don’t reward you for “surviving the bear.” Bull markets test if you actually learned anything.
Because in a bull: You’ll feel like a genius again. You’ll get sloppy again. You’ll size up because “it can’t go down.” You’ll stop taking profit because “this is the big one.” You’ll start chasing because everyone is printing.
The market doesn’t change. Your discipline does.
If you can keep bear-market habits in a bull market… you don’t just make money.
A lot of people have been asking for an update on this chart, so I’ll just leave this here for anyone who needs to see it.
This shows the average BTC trajectory following an oversold RSI reading, with RSI falling below 30 at t=0.
So far, it’s been pretty bang on.
Unless you believe the 4-year cycle is still in play, which we don’t, this chart should hold up contextually over time.
No, it won’t be perfect, but assuming the bull market isn’t already over, it’s a useful chart to keep in mind.
As we’ve outlined many times, based on our work on the business cycle, the current path of financial conditions, and our expectations for overall liquidity, the balance of probabilities is that this cycle extends well into 2026.
In that world, the 4-year cycle is dead.
Remember, the 4-year cycle was never about the halving, despite widespread belief that it is, but instead has always been driven by the public debt refinancing cycle, as outlined in our work at GMI, which post-COVID was pushed out by one year.
In our view, the 4-year cycle is now officially broken because the weighted average maturity of the debt term structure has increased.
And the bigger picture is that there is still a vast amount of interest expense that needs to be monetized, which has far exceeded GDP growth.
Another thing to keep in mind is that bases can take time to form and usually come with plenty of chop before the bigger up-move kicks in.
Finally, let me repeat what I said when I first posted this chart last month.
If you think the bull market is over and we are now facing twelve months of pain, this chart is not for you. Move along...
sorry guys, with respect to all new traders but what the fuck is actually happening
i’m down 7 figs over the past months. i can’t size a single token. literally everything you buy with size gets raped. i tried sizing spx, troll, franklin, binance life but literally nothing works.
nothing works. the only thing that works for top pnl wallets is simply raping charts. this is not even trading anymore, just money swinging from one port to another.
yesterday i bought $5k of a token at 200k, shared it around, and the responses i got were: 1. is this alpha that you buy so much at 200k? 2. why do you buy so big? anything over 200k mc is not a play anymore lol?
seriously? there were times when people dreamt of entries below 10m on good narratives.
Short term pain • BoJ rate hike risk, last times meant 20 to 30% $BTC drawdowns • First CME death cross printed • Social interest down hard, volume collapsed • Liquidations everywhere, weak hands getting rinsed
What actually matters • JPMorgan accepts $BTC and $ETH as loan collateral • Banks and institutions pulling in hundreds of millions • Governments, sovereigns, and funds accumulating quietly • Crypto rails being rebuilt inside TradFi • Macro outlook says massive QE/liquidity in 2026
Short term is choppy = noise Long term adoption is accelerating = signal
