XRP moonshot?Since April 2021 XRP has been banging on the 2/1 Gann failing time and time again.
In the last three years we hit the 2/1 Gann 5 times and failed to break it , this monthly candle is extremely bullish and we have reached the apex of this Gann triangle, the chances are we break to the upside.
Since March 2020 we have been printing lower highs on the monthly without fail.
Stoch RSI monthly buy.
Bar pattern fractal from 2015 repeating.
Very high chance here XRP breaks 2/1 this time round , there is a lot of momentum.

ETHBTC Shows Lower Degree Bullish Setup FormationWe talked about ETHBTC back on July 5th, where we mentioned and highlighted a completed higher degree corrective decline with strong support zone. Since then, we have seen some short-term slow down, which can be just a lower degree bullish setup formation.
ETHBTC looks to be finally ready for a bullish continuation within higher degree wave C/3 after we noticed an impulsive rally into wave A/1, followed by recent a-b-c corrective setback in B/2. With current sharp bounce, seems like wave B/2 is completed and wave C or 3 already in progress, especially if the price jumps back above 0.05150 region. Bullish ETHBTC pair also indicates that Ethereum could be doing better than Bitcoin in upcoming weeks. Can other ALTcoins too? Is it finally time for ALTseason?
CULT DAO x5-x10?Cult Dao confirmed buy signal on the stoch RSI weekly last night , longing this signal last few years as resulted in fairly large moves , we did get a false signal July 2023 but high chance we have another run at the moment.
What is interesting is that alot of charts putting in the same lower higher structure.
Ethereum Is Poised For More GainsEthereum with ticker ETHUSD is nicely waking up after recent higher degree A-B-C correction in wave (4) that can be bottoming at 2700-2850 area as price recovered sharply in the last two weeks that can be first wave 1 of a higher degree wave (5). Notice that there was also a broken channel resistance and five waves up from the lows up to 3565, followed by a sharp drop which can belong to wave 2 correction. So, more gains can be seen now after a Trump's speech at Bitcoin conference in Nashville. There were a lot of positive comments from Trump that can send the price at least up to 3800 area, but we believe it can be trading in wave 3, especially if ETH breaks above channel resistance line near 3800 level. At this stage, alternatively just be aware of more complex wave 2 that can retest 3000 support level.
ETH 's daily chart is extremely close to a massive breakoutReasons why:
⬨ Hidden bullish divergence
⬨ Tenkan-Sen's slope shows strong momentum higher
⬨ Cloud is very thin
⬨ DTO is at support
🎯 2024 Targets: $5,283 & $7,686
Things to look out for as continued bearish warning signs:
👉 The DTO falls below the zero line and remains below for more than four days
👉 There is a daily close below the Kijun-Sen
GRT ready for breakoutGRT looks bullish and now we need to wait for a breakout. We can see that GRT is forming an ascending triangle pattern.
Expecting atleast 15% up to 0.259/ 0.26
If we can stay above the prices above we can go higher to 0.36 expecting a 60%+ profit.
Watch carefully, what are your thoughts about GRT?
This is no financial advice, always DYOR.
B I T C O I N So, I believe it's a bit premature to get excited over these most recent bull rallies.
Why? It's due to multiple reasons, which I'll share with you all.
-Price is reaching the A.T.H.
-MH will be hit for 1st time
-Price haven't retraced after breaking multiple key levels
-Monthly divergence 🐻
-Weekly high's 2nd hit
Seeing that price swept the weekly M.R.L. while also running into the EQ, I can see how most will look at this as a sweep for bull continuation, which it is! However, I am viewing it as a set-up for what's truly about to take place (IMO), which is a sweep of equal highs in order to begin the retracement phase to the downside.
The range I'll keep an eye on to see when price action start to flip bull/bear is $76K - $80K, and I wouldn't be surprised if the process starts sometime this upcoming week from the H1/H4 perspective.
A.O.I. $31,900 - $45,600
S.S. $35,200
I can very well be wrong on my analysis, and if I am, I'll look for the new weekly low ($55,600 - $55,900) to hold for further bull continuation. We all shall see..
BTCUSD Makes Big Breakout - Now Targeting $67k to $71kBitcoin broke away from my flag formation and has established a new bullish price trend targeting FWB:67K to $71k (or higher).
This is fantastic news for bitcoin traders as we should see a very solid rally phase over the next 4+ months.
Get ready for $95k++, possibly before the end of 2024.

IOTX coin, highlighting the head and shoulders pattern and...Analysis of IOTX Coin: Head and Shoulders Pattern
Current Pattern:
The IOTX coin is currently exhibiting a head and shoulders pattern, which is a classic bearish reversal signal. This pattern consists of three peaks: the middle peak (head) being higher than the two outer peaks (shoulders).
Resistance Level:
We are now approaching a key resistance level. If the price gets rejected at this resistance, we could see a continuation of the bearish trend.
Potential Scenario:
• Bearish Reversal:
Given the head and shoulders pattern, if the price fails to break above the resistance, it is likely that we will see a bearish reversal.
• Price Target:
Should the price get rejected from the resistance, the first support level to watch is the neckline of the head and shoulders pattern. If this level is breached, the next significant support level would be the lower bound from recent price actions.
Summary:
• Pattern: Head and Shoulders (Bearish)
• Resistance Level: Current price level, acting as a neckline.
• Support Levels:
• Initial Support: The neckline of the head and shoulders pattern.
• Further Support: Lower historical support level from recent price actions.
Trading Strategy:
• Monitor the Resistance: Watch for price action around the current resistance level.
• Potential Rejection: If rejected, look for the price to move towards the neckline and potentially lower support levels.
• Stop-Loss and Take-Profit: Consider setting stop-loss orders just above the resistance level and take-profit orders around the support levels.
Conclusion:
The IOTX coin is showing signs of a bearish head and shoulders pattern. Caution is advised as the price approaches the resistance level. If rejected, prepare for potential downward movement towards the initial support level and beyond.
This post should effectively communicate your analysis and trading strategy for the IOTX coin based on the current head and shoulders pattern and the potential rejection from the resistance level.

BTC: Buying in the Dip?CME: BTC Futures ( CME:BTC1! )
Bitcoin plunged last week as investors focused on the payout of nearly $9 billion to investors of collapsed bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox. Spot price slumped to as low as $53,513 on Friday, marking the first time that bitcoin traded below the $55K level since Feb. 27th.
Another big bitcoin seller is the German government. In January, German police seized 50,000 bitcoins in connection with the prosecution of movie piracy operation Moview2k. Last week, they began selling thousands of bitcoins, adding to the current selloff pressure.
Last Friday, CME Bitcoin Futures ( CRYPTOCAP:BTC ) settled at 56,685, a drawdown of more than $15,300 or -21% since June. CME Ether Futures ( CRYPTOCAP:ETH ) closed at 2,997, down $900 or -23% in a month. Both cryptocurrencies are still up about 25% year-to-date.
Opinion: Bitcoin May Rebound and Reach New High
The big selling from Mt. Gox and the German government temporarily increased available bitcoin supply in the spot market, pushing its prices down. Both sellers could dump tens of thousands more bitcoins to the open markets in the coming weeks.
However, total bitcoin supply is still capped at 2.1 million. The recent halving event in April reduced newly mined bitcoin coming to market while increasing the cost of mining.
Meanwhile, the demand for crypto investment could increase substantially with bitcoin ETF funds. Once the dust is settled, we will have a market with limited supply and increasing demand. This is an economic formula for higher prices.
Unlike previous market downturns, the recent drawdown in bitcoin prices is not necessarily reflective of a bearish view from investors. The trustee managing Mr. Gox asset needs to sell bitcoins to make investors whole, ten years after its bankruptcy. The German government sells bitcoins also mainly for legal reasons.
Investors are not panicking. On the contrary, we hear that the founder of blockchain platform TRON offered to pay $2.3 billion to the German government for its entire bitcoin holding. This proposed private transaction is aimed at minimizing market volatility.
Additionally, escalated geopolitical tensions in Europe and Middle East also draw investors to cryptocurrencies, to diversify and hedge their assets.
We can find validation from CFTC Commitment of Traders report. As of June 25th, total open interest (OI) for CME Bitcoin Futures is 32,277 contracts. Asset managers has 17,531 contracts in long position, vs. only 493 contracts in short position. The 35-to-1 long-short ratio indicates strong bullish view from long-term bitcoin investors.
Overall, I hold the view that bitcoin would come out of the current downturn relatively quickly and would rebound and potentially reach new highs before the end of the year.
Long Futures with Put Protection
On May 6th, I published the idea, “HODL with a Twist”, and explored using Futures Rollover strategy to invest in bitcoin for the long haul.
Last Friday, the September Bitcoin Futures contract (BTCU4) was settled at 57,695. Each contract has a notional value of 5 bitcoins, or a market value of $288,475. To buy or sell 1 contract, a trader is required to post an initial margin of $69,234. The margining requirement reflects a built-in leverage of 4-to-1. It’s cost-effective investing with CME bitcoin futures, vs. buying bitcoins from bitcoin spot market or the ETF funds.
From bitcoin price history, we learn that it tended to reach new highs after market downturns. However, each drawdown could be very significant, and at times well over 50%. Today, as I reconfirm my bullish view, I also want to add protective put options to hedge our long futures position due to the risk of short-term market correction.
Last Friday, put strike at 50,000 for the September BTC contract was settled at 2,485. A trader will pay $12,425 (= 2,485 x 5) upfront to buy a put option.
Let’s use a hypothetical trade to illustrate how the long futures with protective put strategy differs from buying spot bitcoin or bitcoin ETF.
Hypothetical Trade:
• Buy 1 BTCU4 contract at 57,695, and set a stop loss at 50,000
• Buy 1 put option on BTCU4 at the 50,000-strike for $12,425
• Trader pays $69,234 initial margin for futures and $12,425 for put options, totaling $81,659
Scenario 1: Bitcoin drops to $36,000
• This is 50% drawdown from the high price reached in June
• Futures stop loss at 50,000, and the loss incurred in futures account will be $38,475 (= (57695-50000) x 5)
• Put options become exercisable at 50,000, and the gain will be $70,000 (= (50000-36000) x 5)
• The combined profit/loss for this strategy will be $31,525 (= 70000 – 38475)
• Investment return will be +38.6% (= 31525 / 81659)
• Comparison: With no leverage, investing in spot bitcoin or bitcoin ETF will lose 50%
Scenario 2: Bitcoin rises to $80,000
• This price will be a new record, which is 7.4% above all time high reached in March
• Futures gain will be $111,525 (= (80000-57695) x 5)
• Put options will expire worthless
• The combined profit/loss for this strategy will be $99,100 (= 111525 – 12425)
• Investment return will be +121.3% (= 99100 / 81659)
• Comparison: each bitcoin gains $22,305 (= 80000-57695). Investment return in spot bitcoin or bitcoin ETF will be +38% (= 22305 / 57695)
The above scenarios show that
• when bitcoin goes up, futures will have higher returns due to its leveraged nature.
• when bitcoin falls, protect put will kick in to reduce losses and may make a profit.
There are also risks in this strategy:
• If bitcoin goes up only modestly, futures return will lag spot bitcoin investment because of the added cost of the options premium;
• If bitcoin falls but stays above 50000, futures loss will be bigger than spot bitcoin investment, since the put options could not be exercised.
Happy Trading.

BlackRock Bitcoin ETF Could Be Finishing A CorrectionBlackRock Bitcoin ETF with ticker – IBIT looks like a nice and clean A-B-C correction that is right now sitting at interesting support area for A=C, but to confirm support in place and bulls back in the game, we need to see sharp or impulsive recovery back above 36.43 level.
BTCUSD Rejecting Downward Trend @ $57k - Watch What Happens NextThis is a followup video to my earlier BTCUSD analysis - suggesting BTCUSD would find support near $57 and rally (eventually) to over $90k.
I found it interesting that I received a few comments on that last video - some in support and others thinking I was wrong. But, now, with BTCUSD clearly attempting to reject any further downward price action near the $57k level - we get to see how this plays out in REALTIME.
Watch this video to learn why I believe the big move for BTCUSD won't happen till after August 15, 2024 (a +$6k move). Then, we'll have to wait till later in September for the major FLAG pattern to complete - leading to an even bigger upward price breakout.
I love this type of analysis and I love sharing it with everyone. Watch my other videos if you want to learn more about what I do and how I help traders prepare for the biggest opportunities.
Watch this play out in realtime with BTCUSD. If I'm right, we'll see $62k again before August 20th, then move into a broader FLAG formation before the next big breakout happens.
Go get some.
Is ETHBTC Pair Turning Bullish?ETHBTC pair can be turning bullish, as we see strong rebound after a completed corrective decline by Elliott wave theory.
We talked about ETHBTC pair back on May 14th, where we mentioned and highlighted the completion of an (A)-(B)-(C) corrective setback with the wedge pattern within wave 5 of (C).
As you can see today on July 05, ETHBTC pair bounced from projected 0.045 support area, which can be signal that it’s turning back to bullish mode, especially if breaks back above 0.061 region.
Regarding dominance in the Crypto market, ETHBTC chart can be one of the reasons that ALTcoin dominance may kick in soon, so new ALTseason could be around the corner.
BITCOIN will find support above $57k & Rally To $90k In 2025.I thought I would look at BITCOIN as I've been doing my Plan Your Trade videos.
I don't follow BITCOIN much - but the skills I teach related to price channels, Fibonacci Price Theory, Anchor Bars, Fibonacci Retracement/Extension, and others can be easily applied to any chart.
So, I created this video to share with you how I look at opportunities and pertinent price formations.
First, I see a FLAG formation that is nearly complete.
Second, I see a 100% measured move that has prompted the stalling price action (the FLAG).
Third, I see multiple price channels leading to a robust possibility for a rally phase in BITCOIN later this year and into 2025.
Lastly, I paired my analysis of BITCOIN with my expectations for the US Indexes. Thus, if I were expecting a broad market collapse over the next 6 to 12+ months, I would bias my decision-making towards the downside as asset declines typically result in all assets moving downward for a brief period.
Watch this video and let me know what you think. I've laid out an A (bullish) vs. B (bearish) scenario for everyone and highlighted key levels of support/resistance for traders.
At this point, I believe the strongest outcome for BITCOIN is a bullish rally targeting $90k+
