🚨 BTC: We Are in a Bear Market Until Proven Otherwise 🚨

📌 Follow-up to my December 2024 post:

$BTC: are we at the peak of this bull run?


Despite record-breaking bullish news, Bitcoin is not at an all-time high. Why? Because we’re still in a bear market—until the charts say otherwise.

✅ Bullish Factors:
  • Michael Saylor continues buying billions
  • President Trump & family pushing crypto/meme coins
  • Rumors: Fed buying BTC with gold?
  • Trump pinned the Bitcoin white paper at the White House
  • U.S. banks fully onboard with crypto
  • ETFs accumulating BTC
  • National crypto reserve announced


❌ Bearish Signals:
  • Fear & Greed Index in "extreme fear" for 30+ days
  • Price is below the EMA50 on weekly
  • Monthly MACD nearing bearish crossover
  • Trading volume decreasing
  • Crypto search interest at multi-year lows
  • Retails not buying — this is all institutions
  • Powell confirmed we're in a recession
  • Desperate whales calling for $5M–$9M BTC to bait retail

🧭 Monthly chart check the MACD:

⚠️ Key Insight:
Every cycle, people confuse a relief rally for a new bull run. This isn't new.

A relief rally = short-term price recovery in a bear market.
(AKA a dead cat bounce or sucker rally)

📊 Past relief rallies (check the chart):

+45% (Feb 2022)
+32% (June 2022)
Current one: only +16% — still within bear territory.

📉 Price could hit $91k and still drop lower while staying in an ongoing bear Market..

🧨 Bear Market Target: 25K27K
📈 Invalidation? Only if we close above $101K

Don’t trade your emotions. Trade the charts. They never lie.

Trade closed: stop reached
Well well well... Until proven otherwise!

Bitcoin reaching $91k is invalidating this idea. No one can be right all the time. It was an interesting idea to write.

We are still in a bull market, the longest in the history of Bitcoin. Enjoy the pump!
