π Good morning, traders, investors, and anyone excited about the booming crypto market!
Bitcoin just surged to $70,000, bringing that $100,000 target closer than ever. But the big question is: are we really ready for this next move? π
π Letβs dive into the cycles to get a clearer picture of what the market might hold.
π Analyzing cycles can help you pinpoint ideal entry points into Bitcoin (and, eventually, altcoins). Hereβs what the cycles are currently showing:
π€ All these lines, Strategy Masterβ¦ whatβs going on?
If youβre new to these indicators, donβt sweat itβweβll break them down one by one. πΉ The blue line represents Bitcoinβs 1-day cycle. When this line hits 80 (alongside either the 3-day or 1-week cycle below it), Bitcoin often experiences a retracement π.
βΈοΈ Hold onβ¦ Are all the lines above 80?
Youβre right! β As of today (October 30th), all three lines are over 80, which means weβre in overbought territoryβa classic signal for a potential retracement. π« This is a time to sell, not buy.
π€― Then whyβs everyone so hyped about Bitcoin right now? Crypto Twitter is full of moon boys ππ
Hereβs the thing: After nearly half a year of consolidation, people are itching for a breakout. Bitcoinβs been stuck between $60,000 and $70,000 for around seven months, and during this time, altcoins have been bleeding π§. Itβs been hard to profit in this market, and people are desperate for upward momentum π. Many bought at the last peak in March and are now chanting βBUYβ in the hopes others will push prices higher.
β But is it too risky to buy now?
To find out, letβs check out the next chart π.
π This chart paints a more bullish picture for Bitcoin!
πΉ The light blue line represents Bitcoinβs 2-week cycle, which has been steadily climbing since mid-September and is currently at 74. This indicates that BTC may continue trending upward for another 3β4 weeks. π
π’ The bottom line (in dark green) is the monthly cycle, which looks extremely bullish. A reversal here hints that Bitcoin could see higher prices over the next ~6 months. This aligns with the 4-Year Bitcoin cycle theory, which typically peaks in the first half of 2025, then trends downward for about 1.5 years until late 2026 π .
π€ Waitβ¦ how can I get those green and red lines that mark cycle tops and bottoms on your chart?

π For example: Applying my Cycle Indicator to the βTOTAL3β chart (which tracks the altcoin market) and selecting Cycle and Stoch RSI for the 1-day and 3-day charts reveals some great opportunities π.
π With only two trades in the past four months, you could have captured gains of 13% and 14% on altcoins! π°β¨
π Conclusion: BTC
The cycles are looking favorable β βoverbought in the short term, yet with strong long-term potential π. My plan is to reinforce my positions when the 1-day & 3-day cycles dip and reverse. Typically, I allocate more capital when the 1-week cycle is below 20, but Iβm still open to making smaller plays in setups like this π΅.
π€ Quick question β Have we seen this setup before? Overbought on the 3-day and 1-week cycles, but trending up on the 2-week and 1-month cycles?
β¨ Yes! We saw a similar setup last year. Check out this chart:
π Bitcoin surged at the end of October, rallying like crazy into November. However, all three short-term indicators (1-day, 3-day, and 1-week) quickly shot above 80 π.
β¬ Fast-forward two months: These indicators cooled off, dropping below 20 β creating an ideal buying opportunity. Shortly after, Bitcoin surged nearly 90%! π
π‘ Sure, you might have missed the short November/December rally, but the price eventually dipped again, offering a lower-risk entry for a great position.
And that should always be your goal β to minimize risk. Buying at cycle lows or during reversals provides exceptional returns (over 100% annually on average) and helps mitigate the risk of a sudden bearish downturn. π»
