MARKET OVERVIEW (7-DAY)

BITCOIN TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

I feel like I am back on a plane with the recent turbulence from Bitcoin’s price movement!

We were at $95,000 on Monday, down below $90,000 on Tuesday, and now we are currently around $97,000!

What is going on!?

Well, my friend, we are here to answer that exact question!

But before we dive into today’s analytics, go ahead and mute your work notifications, grab a seat, and let’s hear from today’s sponsor.

Thank you to The Daily Upside for sponsoring today’s newsletter - now let’s get this show on the road!

Even though Bitcoin can be more volatile than a child at Chuck E Cheese, there are a couple of things that are apparent.

As shown below by Byte the bot, the chart shows that Bitcoin has two primary bearish formations that may result in downward pressure:

1. Bear Flag Formation (Highlighted in Gray)

2. Descending Triangle Formation (Highlighted in Red)

Even though Bitcoin has broken both of these formations on the downside and then recovered, it still maintains in bearish territory . . .

Which means that we are not out of hot water yet!

We also see that there is a vertical line highlighted in blue with a date attached to it . . .

⭐ This shows that Bitcoin’s movement must be decided by the 17th of February!

The three options for Bitcoin’s price movement are:

1. Break Below the Descending Triangle & Continue Downward

2. Break Above the Descending Triangle & Maintain the Bear Flag

3. Break Above the Descending Triangle & the Bear Flag Formation

Even though everyone is holding out hope that the US presidential inauguration will rocket Bitcoin, we have to ask ourselves . . .

What are the investors and traders thinking?

Let’s take a look at the long/short ratio where we see exactly what they are thinking.

🧠 A quick reminder:

1. Long = Traders and Investors Projecting Upward Bitcoin Movement

2. Short = Traders and Investors Projecting Downward Bitcoin Movement

The chart above shows 16 major exchanges and the ratio of long to short traders within the past 24 hours . . . notice anything?

Aside from 3 exchange, they are all leaning towards bullish movement!

That doesn’t mean that Bitcoin will immediately become bullish, but it does show a strong support!

🧠 Bullish Fact! Bitcoin has held the current bear flag formation since the 23rd of December 2024!

WHAT TO ANTICIPATE

As we said in our previous newsletter . . .

High emphasis on the “continuation” part!

As we saw, Bitcoin did break below $92,000 however no continuation took place, and it retraced back above $97,000.

If it does continue downward, that is when the “pullback area” comes into effect and we all pray that it holds that area.

Anticipated Date: The 17th of February is the date that the descending triangle formation comes to an end . . .

We aren’t the only ones watching this date!

Experienced traders and investors see exactly what we do and are trading accordingly!

Bullish Area: Even though we are currently in the bullish area, Bitcoin must break $100,000 to form a bullish formation!

At that point, we transition to an ascending triangle with our next target to break the current all-time high at $108,268!

🧠 Don’t Forget! Large holders want you to sell your position so they may buy it at a cheaper price . . . don’t let them fool you!
