ICPPERP trade ideas
ICP: ICP to $30 Low Confidence High Risk High Reward TradeI’d put ICP a tier or two below XRP or LINK in regard to trade setups at the moment. Funny thing: ICP is apparently a very strong cryptocurrency project with strong fundamentals. This is another example of why Fundamentals and Financials don’t matter in Crypto as ICP has performed like utter crap this market cycle.
But…! A trade setup is still valid so long as the bear market low (Red Line) holds at $2.83.
The trade idea is that ICP is trading in an ABC Correction with Wave B in yellow finished or close to finishing. Wave C in Yellow should take ICP to either the 1:1 extension at $30.99 or the 1:1.618 extension at $106.80. Given how crap ICP has performed this market cycle, I don’t really have high hopes for $106.80, but anything can happen in cryptocurrency.
In the short term, IDEALLY ICP doesn’t break below the support area between $4.34 - $6.08. The current rally off the local low set on April 7th 2025 is limp and unconvincing hence this is a low confidence high risk high reward trade. Personally, I own far less ICP compared to BTC/LINK/XRP.
ICPUSDT READY TO FLY AGAIN ?? ICPUSDT is currently forming a classic falling wedge pattern on the chart, which is widely recognized as a bullish reversal signal. The price has been compressing within this narrowing range and is now approaching a key point where a breakout is highly likely. With strong support being respected and buyers gradually stepping in, the setup is aligning well for a potential upside move.
Volume levels have been steadily increasing, confirming growing investor interest in Internet Computer (ICP). This increasing participation from traders and investors alike can often serve as a reliable indicator that a breakout may occur soon. Technical indicators such as RSI and MACD are also hinting at a momentum shift that aligns with a bullish scenario.
Given the strength of this chart formation and the positive volume dynamics, ICPUSDT could potentially see a price gain in the range of 90% to 100%+ from current levels. The risk-to-reward ratio is favorable, especially for those who are entering early before the breakout confirms with stronger candles above resistance. A retest of the wedge breakout, if it happens, could also provide a second opportunity to enter.
ICP is also gaining traction among long-term investors due to its unique blockchain technology aimed at decentralizing the internet. The ongoing development and community support around the project adds more fundamental strength to this setup. Keep an eye on it for confirmation of the breakout!

A Bounce off the 1.618?ICP has been a disappointment for many, I would imagine. Including myself...
A lot of social media hype behind this one, but the time may be coming soon for a real rally up.
A nice falling star through the 1:1.618 extension last week and currently fighting resistance from previous consolidation low.
A small chance that we will see lower local lows for this asset, but never impossible. If that were the case, a retracement to the larger time frame 1:1 would be an ideal area; and inside that ratio band is the POC.
With its market Cap currently at 2.7B, this Computing coin could have a nice topping area in the future.
-Not Financial Advice-
ICP Will Break UpwardI picked up a few hundred more at $6.25.
Trump's posts about the US investing in Crypto is creating a lot of enthusiasm for XRP, SOL and ADA. But even though coins like ICP were not mentioned by Trump does not mean money will not flow into ICP. It most definitely will. I expect the short/near term we will head back up to test the trend line. After that, if we break the trendline, we will move up to at least $20.
ICP Trading Plan: Buying Dips with a 1:3 Risk-Reward RatioLike most altcoins, ICP has been declining since December. At the beginning of February, it reached a key support level around $6. After this drop, the coin began to consolidate, but recent price action suggests a potential reversal to the upside.
A confirmed breakout above $7 would strengthen this outlook, potentially leading to a test of the psychologically significant $10 level.
I’m looking to buy dips in anticipation of this scenario, aiming for a minimum risk-to-reward ratio of 1:3.
Wave2 Nearing Completion: Bullish Momentum for Internet ComputerWave 2 Analysis
Wave structure analysis suggests that ICP has been following a five-wave impulse pattern. The first wave began in December after ICP hit a low of $2.70 in September. By March, ICP surged to a high of $21, marking the end of the first wave. The second wave, which is a corrective wave, saw ICP retracing to the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level of $6.58 by July. This level has been retested multiple times, indicating strong support.
Current Market Sentiment
The recent price movements show that ICP has been trading sideways, forming an ascending triangle pattern. This pattern is typically a bullish continuation pattern, suggesting that the price might break out upwards. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates that ICP is not overbought, providing room for further upward movement.
AI Narrative and Decentralized Cloud
The AI narrative and the shift towards decentralized cloud solutions are significant factors contributing to the bullish outlook for ICP. Centralized cloud providers like AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud dominate the market, but they also pose challenges such as high costs, regulatory issues, and susceptibility to political pressures. Decentralized alternatives like Internet Computer aim to democratize cloud infrastructure, reducing reliance on centralized entities and fostering innovation.
Conclusion
Given the wave structure analysis, strong support levels, and the growing narrative around AI and decentralized cloud solutions, ICP is poised for a potential bullish breakout. If the price breaks above the ascending resistance, it could mark the beginning of the third wave in the five-wave impulse pattern, leading to significant price appreciation.
ICP rocket ride coming soon..ICP has great fundamentals but has under-performed the rest of the crypto market. With ICPanda (icp project) linked to deepseek, the potential for the upside is HUGE. Potential price manipulation by institutions to scoop up cheap ICP.
Technically, the chart looks poised for an explosive move up. It has broken out of a long term resistance (yellow down-trending line) and is now back testing. It has done this in the past and seems to be repeating a similar move. In addition, there's a confluence of technical signals as its also at price support (blue line) that is now at support which has held for a year after being resistance for a year. RSI is oversold and IMO, price should return back to $70s at the very least.
Nothing is a guarantee and anything could happen. This is not financial advice.
ICP's unique properties according to Grok
The Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) stands out from other cryptocurrencies due to several unique properties:
Decentralized Internet Infrastructure:
ICP aims to create a decentralized internet where traditional centralized services like cloud computing are replaced by a network of independent data centers worldwide. This structure is intended to reduce the control of big tech companies over internet services, offering a more open and less centralized internet model.
Scalability and Speed:
Unlike many traditional blockchains that face scalability issues, ICP uses a subnet system where each subnet operates as its own blockchain. This architecture allows for high scalability and the ability to process up to 30,000 transactions per second, matching web speeds for application performance.
Low Transaction Costs:
ICP implements a "reverse gas model" where users do not typically pay for transactions directly. Instead, developers pre-load "canisters" (ICP's version of smart contracts) with "cycles" which are used to pay for computation. This model reduces the cost for end-users, making it more attractive for developers to build decentralized applications (dApps).
Smart Contracts (Canisters):
ICP's smart contracts, called canisters, are more versatile than those on other platforms. They can handle HTTP requests, serve web assets directly from the blockchain, and run at web speed, allowing for complex, interactive web experiences without reliance on traditional hosting.
Chain Key Cryptography:
This is a unique cryptographic system that ensures the security and integrity of the network. It involves distributing cryptographic keys across data centers to prevent any single point of failure or control, enhancing the security of the blockchain.
Network Nervous System (NNS):
ICP includes the NNS, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) for governance. It allows token holders to vote on network changes, upgrades, and node participation, ensuring community-driven development and maintenance of the protocol.
Interoperability:
ICP has mechanisms like chain-key tokens (e.g., ckBTC) that allow for seamless interaction with other blockchains, such as Bitcoin, without intermediaries, thus promoting interoperability in a decentralized manner.
Energy Efficiency:
ICP is noted for being one of the more energy-efficient blockchains, consuming significantly less energy compared to Proof of Work blockchains like Bitcoin, making it more environmentally friendly.
Native Token Utility:
The ICP token serves multiple roles including governance, staking for rewards, and as a means to buy "cycles" for smart contract execution. This multifaceted utility provides economic incentives for participants to secure and expand the network.
Direct Web Hosting:
Developers can host decentralized websites directly on the ICP blockchain, providing an alternative to centralized hosting services where data and control are more transparent and less susceptible to censorship.
These properties collectively position ICP as a platform that not only aims to host cryptocurrency but also to fundamentally change how the internet and its applications are built, managed, and used.
ICPUSDOn the weekly chart you can see the RSI has held above this line since ICP launched in 2021. For the most part, each time the RSI touched the line we had a price reaction to the upside. There is also the wedge I have been pointing to and the RSI touching the line that could happen at the same time.
Good luck
ICP breakout expected as positive cashflow is achievedInternet Computer Protocol is a unique project, that allows investors to accurately assess fundamentals. 2024 has been an amazing year for the project:
ICP has been recognised as being the fastest blockchain in terms of max recorded transactions per second, outperforming Solana by more than 3 times (Cryptogics November 2024).
In terms of compute, ICP is frequently burning more than 1 trillion 'cycles' per second, approximately 200x the 5B cycles/s it routinely burned a year ago.
It is also reported to be the cheapest for transactions and data storage, by one or more orders of magnitude, depending on the blockchain it is compared with (Token Terminal December 2024). More than 4Tb of data is stored on ICP, more than 3.3x the data stored on Ethereum and potentially more data than is held on-chain by all other crypto projects combined.
ICP is attracting developers at breakneck speed (3rd preferred blockchain for new developers), with fees collected up 40x year-on-year (Token Terminal December 2024).
These metrics are impressive, but despite the heavy-hitting results booked to date, ICP is still ranked 39th with a market cap of (just) US$4.1B in the CoinGecko list of crypto projects, well below projects with no or little utility. This has led to some insiders referring to ICP as 'crypto's most undervalued project'.
This month (January 2025), ICP will achieve 'positive cashflow', defined here as the point at which revenue from compute (ICP burned) exceeds the cost of the network (ICP minted to reward node providers). Refer to my post on Nuance for more detail (nuance.xyz).
Apart from this critical milestone, the tokenomics of ICP are such that effective deflation is affected by the value of the ICP token. I built a model described in another Nuance post (nuance.xyz) that estimates deflation (defined as a decrease in the ICP circulating supply) to be achieved in 2028, but at the current depressed ICP price below US$10, effective deflation will be achieved before this Christmas!!
In the context of the above, I expect ICP to increase significantly in value this year and given the chart provided here, my expectation is that the price of ICP will flip on a dime this week with the news of ICP achieving positive cashflow ('operational profit'). My view is that 10x is achievable in 2025.

ICPUSDDom.icp has been posting a lot on X attempting to calm the community and give confidence in the coming CAFFAI and ICP tech. While useless meme coins are pumping it seems we have lost site of blockchain and it's intended possibilities. I am in this for the long-term with all of my ICP staked indefinitely. My hopes are that in 10 years ICP will be the dominant player in this space with tech being used by many. I have read charts that show ICP had a double bottom already and should be ready for a mass upward movement. I never saw that and still think it's possible we have a true DB back down at the $3 area, especially if BTC corrects majorly like many are calling for. TRUMP coin is also shaking up the crypto market and may shake out a lot of useless tokens. My plan is to buy a lot more if we break $6.85 and cost average on the way down.
Internet Computer in 2025ICP is having a possible bullish scenario as long as it's above the invalidation red lines.
Although the counting of the major (3) is forced, but it's what I find most fitting.
Breaking $9.72 then $6.83 cancels this idea.
Passing $15.89 is a bullish confirmation and would take the price to $40 : $60 as a start.
