📊 BITCOIN’S DAILY MOVEMENT

Everyone is looking at the surface level.

“Bitcoin isn’t moving” or “the bull market has ended,” but they need to look deeper, and we are here to help!

Bitcoin’s current consolidation is above the 2021 all-time high price which is something that we have never seen in past Bitcoin cycles.

Normally, Bitcoin will break a new all-time high and shortly afterwards will pull back to begin consolidation at a lower level.

When looking at the image above - aside from how cool the bull is - what do you see?

We see Bitcoin consolidating after the bullish move which broke Bitcoin above the descending resistance line.

Keep in mind, Bitcoin is still holding between $85,938.76 and $88,472.61 which is the battleground that we predicted last week!

This is amazing news! Throughout the past 6-9 months, we have been preaching about “consolidation.”

Bitcoin has now been consolidating for the past 10 days, and this could be the answer to our prayers . . . but there are other variables involved!

🧠 MARKET PSYCHOLOGY

Through Bitcoin’s consolidation, the bears still hold a majority in the market . . .

We aren’t surprised by this, and it is easy to believe that they will continue to hold a majority until Bitcoin approaches $100,000.

  • Short (bearish) traders = 51.30%

  • Long (bullish) traders = 48.70%

 

🔮 WHAT TO ANTICIPATE

As stated in Saturday’s newsletter . . .

“It is still imperative that Bitcoin hold above $85,938.76, but on top of that, we need a strong push above $88,472.61.

Bitcoin’s current candlestick formation indicates that a break to ~$89,602.23 or higher will occur, but Bitcoin needs to maintain above $88,472.61 to push higher.”

Bitcoin did break above $88,472.61, not once, not twice, but 7 times during this consolidation period!

Each time, Bitcoin could not hold above $88,472.61 to make its way to the next resistance at $92,064.05.

Sounds extremely bearish, we know. However, there may still be hope!

📈 BULLISH SCENARIO

More than ever, it is imperative that Bitcoin holds above $85,938.76!

Now that consolidation has occurred for the past 10 days, a move below this major support line would crash Bitcoin’s price.

Bitcoin must break above $88,472.61 - yet again - and hold above to convert $88,47261.61 from resistance to support.

From there, the pursuit of achieving $92,064.05 and $93,123.16 needs to occur shortly afterwards.

📉 BEARISH SCENARIO

Well, the bearish scenario is we lose everything and have to take up another part time job - let’s try somewhere else aside from McDonald’s haha.

In all seriousness, if Bitcoin does not hold major support at $85,938.76 . . . well, we are screwed . . .

This could cause a domino effect where Bitcoin falls to $81,322.51 and then free falls to ~$73,619.30.

The potential of this occurring is higher than we want it to be, but let’s hope some bullish world news is around the corner . . .

👀 WATCH FOR THIS NEXT

All eyes are on Bitcoin’s consolidation between $85,938.76 and $88,472.61!

We have said it before and will say it again; this could make or break the next bull run into 2026.

December is not the chosen month; we are sure everyone agrees on this . . . but December is essential for quarter 1 of 2026 to be monumental!

In the meantime, Bitcoin’s continued consolidation is not a bad thing . . . we want it to consolidate for another 72-96 hours.

This would allow for a stronger foundation to form so Bitcoin’s next upward move into 2026 has some “umph!” behind it!

🧠 OUR OVERALL THOUGHTS

As gold and silver continue to break new all-time highs, we look at Bitcoin with disappointment.

However, Bitcoin could be setting up for a move that the world has never witnessed!

This Bitcoin cycle is like none before it, and we believe that Bitcoin’s future price will be the same . . . never seen before!

We project the biggest bull run that the market has ever seen, but it will take some time . . . and we have nothing but time!

To our fellow bulls, trade smart, stay safe, and may the bull guide your gains!
