🚨 The CALM Before the CRYPTO STORM… MASSIVE CRASH or EXPLOSIVE PUMP Incoming?! — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00All right, Bitcoin is trading at
- 0:01$83,000.
- 0:04It's a new week. It's Monday. We've had
- 0:06the biggest crypto conference of the
- 0:08year, Token 2049, that is now behind us.
- 0:11And basically, just as this pattern
- 0:14seems to go, we had quite a sell-off
- 0:17during that conference. It seems to be a
- 0:19thing like anytime there's a really big
- 0:21conference, there's just a sell-off
- 0:23during that time. I don't know why they
- 0:25time it like that. or maybe the people
- 0:27who try and keep the market up or
- 0:30manipulate the market, they're taking
- 0:31time off for the conference. I don't
- 0:32know what it is, but anyway, we seem to
- 0:35have gotten a pullback. So, right now,
- 0:36we're at a stage where we've had this
- 0:39massive run on Bitcoin where it went
- 0:42from 62 to 87. We've pulled back to 80.
- 0:45Currently, we're around 83,000. And the
- 0:48question is, what is next? What comes
- 0:51from here? So, I want to make a bit of a
- 0:53video update to give some options, give
- 0:56some insights, and let you see what what
- 1:00we can do from here. If you're new to
- 1:02the channel, welcome. My name is Dirk.

- 1:10you want to do, drop it in the comments
- 1:12below. Let's dive straight in. So, I
- 1:14want to start by looking at our central
- 1:16command trading terminal. This is a
- 1:18terminal that I've been working on for
- 1:21more than a year. It's basically a total
- 1:23custom trading terminal into which you
- 1:26can connect your blowof exchange with
- 1:28like two clicks. You can actually trade
- 1:29on the terminal. But that is not the
- 1:31main point. The main point is here we're
- 1:33building this terminal so that we can
- 1:36add in all the features, the indicators
- 1:38and the stuff that we want because on
- 1:41exchanges and even on trading view, but
- 1:42especially on exchange like the generic
- 1:44platforms, you just don't have the
- 1:46options and the tools and the data that
- 1:48you need to have to be successful. And
- 1:51uh I think like you know after having
- 1:53been in these markets for so many years,
- 1:55there's stuff that I look at and that I
- 1:56want to see it wasn't possible to add
- 1:58that into exchange platform. So, we
- 2:00started building this whole thing. And
- 2:03what you can see over here, by the way,
- 2:05the terminal is completely free. I'll
- 2:07drop a link down in the description
- 2:08below. You can get access. There's uh
- 2:10like it literally cost you nothing,
- 2:12right? You can get access to all these
- 2:13tools, overlays, all that stuff for
- 2:15free. Link in the description down
- 2:16below. But one thing that I really like
- 2:18is we built this deviation indicator
- 2:20that basically warns you when the price
- 2:23is getting too overbought or too
- 2:25oversold with the idea being that
- 2:29price can only move so much above the
- 2:32mean and so much below the mean, right?
- 2:34It's it always oscillates and even if it
- 2:37deviates a huge amount, it always snaps
- 2:40back to the mean. The price always goes
- 2:41up and down. And the whole issue with
- 2:44price is that it works
- 2:47to trap you because we as humans are
- 2:51very flawed. Our brains are not wired
- 2:54for price like this, right? We're
- 2:56generally risk averse and our emotions
- 2:59tend to work against us. So when you see
- 3:01price going up and up and up and up, you
- 3:04get incredibly greedy at the worst
- 3:05point. Like our brains, our emotions
- 3:07work like it's been going up so much.
- 3:09you have all this FOMO and then our
- 3:12brains tell us, "Oh, we need to buy. We
- 3:13need to buy because it's going up more."
- 3:15But that's actually the exact opposite
- 3:16because by the time it's gone up so much
- 3:18already, we're getting closer and closer
- 3:20to a pullback. And most of the time,
- 3:22people just get sucked into that and buy
- 3:25the very top. That's what we've got
- 3:27here. So, you can see here on the
- 3:28screen, the red is warning when things
- 3:30are overextended. And that's usually the
- 3:32point of maximum FOMO where most people
- 3:35like like our brains are telling us bye
- 3:36bye bye because it's going up. But
- 3:38actually that's when the distribution
- 3:39happens and when you should not be
- 3:41buying. The same thing works in the
- 3:42inverse when it goes down for so long.
- 3:45You get so scared by the end of the move
- 3:47you think it's going to go way lower
- 3:48that you actually sell and panic sell
- 3:51and maybe even short on leverage at the
- 3:53worst point. That is for example the
- 3:55blue that you see over here. So, we're
- 3:58trying to build in all these tools to
- 4:00help warn about these prices so that
- 4:03even even if our emotions are telling us
- 4:05bye bye bye because it's been going up
- 4:07and everyone's euphoric. Obviously, at
- 4:09the same time, you'll see the media
- 4:11being more bullish. You'll see the
- 4:13influences being more bullish and all of
- 4:14that contributes to us wanting to buy at
- 4:17the top, for example, when it's red. You
- 4:19can see what happened here. This was in
- 4:20May uh May of uh this year when we're at
- 4:2483K. Well, if you started turning
- 4:26bullish over there, we dropped to 57K
- 4:29afterwards. And we have this exact same
- 4:31warning system here right now where it's
- 4:33been turning red since $87,000.
- 4:37The warning has been red, which means
- 4:39that things are overheated according to
- 4:40this indicator and that we should be
- 4:43warning. Now, it doesn't mean that
- 4:44exactly 87K was the top. Maybe it sweeps
- 4:47the highs one more time. Maybe it goes
- 4:48to 88,000. But in general, this is not
- 4:51an optimal point for taking long
- 4:53positions. Now, these indicators work
- 4:55based on the time frame that they're
- 4:57shown on, right? So, right now, this is
- 4:59a 12-hour chart. So, you can see the
- 5:01move takes much longer to play out. It
- 5:04was warning blue, so it was oversold.
- 5:07And that was not the point to be selling
- 5:09or to be shorting. And from that point
- 5:11onwards, and and it did take a long
- 5:13time, right? This blue was May. So, May,
- 5:15June, July, August, September, October.
- 5:17It took 5 months for this entire move to
- 5:20play out from the lows until the highs.
- 5:22So, if this is building a top here, it
- 5:25could take several months to go down or
- 5:27to chop or sideways and things like
- 5:29that. I wanted to show you this because
- 5:32it is still warning here that around
- 5:3487,000 83,000 where we are right now, it
- 5:37might not be the most optimal time to be
- 5:40buying. And when we get a pullback, that
- 5:43will be interesting especially if it
- 5:45starts to turn blue again. But like I
- 5:46said, on this time frame, it can take a
- 5:48long time. And you can see over here for
- 5:50the short term we have the liquidations
- 5:52which you can actually turn on with like
- 5:53one click. This is real-time data that
- 5:55we're purchasing um from Coin Glass. So
- 5:58we have these API. So it pulls in the
- 6:00real-time data of the liquidations. You
- 6:02can see there's liquidation levels over
- 6:03here. $200 million at 87.5. So it is
- 6:07possible the price wicks to just above
- 6:0987 again to take out those liquidations.
- 6:11But these are all like little tools
- 6:13depending on whether you trade
- 6:15short-term or long-term, whether you're
- 6:16trading spot or leverage. you can
- 6:18utilize all of them. It's it's all like
- 6:20helpful little things. And I will make a
- 6:23complete tutorial series about the
- 6:25trading terminal. We've added a lot of
- 6:27changes. Uh if you've seen this already,
- 6:30the early stages of the terminal, you'll
- 6:32see it's completely different. We put in
- 6:33a complete uh UI overhaul here and I
- 6:36think it's a lot better. You can see
- 6:37here also the open interest. We've added
- 6:40this in as an uh ability to just overlay
- 6:43this and you can see the open interest
- 6:45here. So the amount of leverage in the
- 6:46system is now higher than it was in May
- 6:50when the price was 83 and went from 83K
- 6:53to 57K. So there are all sorts of
- 6:56warnings and that's kind of why I wanted
- 6:57to show this to you that um there are
- 7:00other ways of looking at this besides
- 7:02just looking at social media and what
- 7:04people are telling you. Oh, bullish bye
- 7:06bye bye. And besides just looking at the
- 7:07price, like this is really going into
- 7:11more detail, looking at the data,
- 7:12looking at the open interest, looking at
- 7:14the deviations from the mean, etc., etc.
- 7:17And that is right now still warning us
- 7:19that this is potentially here still
- 7:22topping before another pullback. Keep in
- 7:24mind, we have the midterms in uh about 3
- 7:27weeks from now, November 3rd. So, it is
- 7:30possible this all had just a massive
- 7:32rally into the midterms and that after
- 7:35the midterms, we see some sort of
- 7:36correction or flush for the final
- 7:39bottom. Now, I'm going to go over into a
- 7:41regular chart and give you some options
- 7:43there. It could be a higher low uh just
- 7:45a pullback to wipe the leverage. It
- 7:46could be a complete flush and new lows.
- 7:49Either way, I do think we are getting
- 7:51closer and closer to the bottom of the
- 7:53bare cycle, which means now is really
- 7:56the time to be paying attention. So,
- 7:58what we have here is the weekly chart of
- 8:00Bitcoin. Um, going back all the way here
- 8:02to 2012. This is on Bitstamp. I put it
- 8:04as a log scale so that it's easier to
- 8:07see. The first thing I want to point out
- 8:08over here is that if you look at the
- 8:11previous bare cycle lows, like the
- 8:12lowest point of the previous three
- 8:14cycles, you can see here very clearly,
- 8:16it was the 12th of January 2015, right?
- 8:20That was kind of the first bare market
- 8:22bottom. then on the 10th of December
- 8:252018 and then the last one was the 21st
- 8:28of November. Okay. So what that shows us
- 8:32is that the previous cycles actually
- 8:35bottomed relatively late into the year.
- 8:39So by people saying the bare market
- 8:42bottom was in at 57K that would
- 8:45basically mean that the bottom was in in
- 8:48July, end of June, early July. That
- 8:51would be a huge discrepancy to any
- 8:54previous cycle. Okay? And that is why
- 8:57I'm still here warning about caution
- 8:59that there could still be a flush and
- 9:01maybe even still new lows. We still have
- 9:04say the next two to 2 and 1/2 months
- 9:06where we are in a potential window for
- 9:09the price to still make new lows without
- 9:12it being substantially different from
- 9:14previous cycles. You can see here. So
- 9:16obviously one thing that stands out
- 9:17right away is that it seems to be
- 9:19getting shorter by one month every time.
- 9:21So that means January, it means
- 9:22December, November, maybe this time it's
- 9:24October. We're already in October. But
- 9:26the the difference from these previous
- 9:28cycles to going going from bottoming Q4
- 9:32to bottoming in June or July, that seems
- 9:36like a bit of a big leap. So that's why
- 9:38I'm still cautious here. And I think
- 9:41there is still that potential for new
- 9:43lows, especially considering all the
- 9:45conflict that's going on in the Middle
- 9:47East, all the tension, the the issues in
- 9:49the economy that that are breaking like
- 9:51uh the housing market in the US
- 9:53especially is starting to give problems.
- 9:55We have Trump's midterms on the third.
- 9:57So maybe uh maybe they just had a big
- 10:00rally into the midterms and we have a
- 10:02sell-off after that to put in the final
- 10:03bottom before 2027 is more bullish.
- 10:06There's all sorts of variations and um
- 10:08I'm not completely convinced that the
- 10:11bottom is in and and that's something
- 10:12that we will only be able to say with
- 10:15certainty, you know, 6 or 12 months from
- 10:17now. We can say, oh, the bottom was at
- 10:1957K or oh, the bottom wasn't in yet and
- 10:21it's still going to be low. We don't
- 10:22know, right? Nobody knows for sure. What
- 10:24we can do is we can look at this
- 10:26previous data. I showed you at the
- 10:28beginning on the central command trading
- 10:29terminal. There are warnings here of us
- 10:31kind of being toppy and overbought. Um I
- 10:34I've shown you this data where previous
- 10:36cycles have only bottomed later in Q4
- 10:38even as much as Q1 of the next year. And
- 10:41what we can see now is that technically
- 10:44here on the weekly chart you can see we
- 10:47are now both above the previous high of
- 10:50May for now and the 50week simple moving
- 10:54average. So technically that is a
- 10:57bullish trend on the higher time frame
- 10:59until we get back below this level which
- 11:02is currently about 76,000. If we get
- 11:05back below this 50 SMA it would be a
- 11:08deviation and we could continue lower
- 11:10and then maybe continue higher again.
- 11:12That's also a possibility. But again
- 11:14this market is all about probabilities
- 11:16not certainties. So we have an if then
- 11:20framework. So we're still above here. If
- 11:22we lose the 50 SMA, then we're back in
- 11:25bearish territory and new lows are much
- 11:28more likely. So, you can adopt uh
- 11:31different frameworks of of what to do
- 11:33here. Um depending on how you trade, how
- 11:36much you want to risk, how active you
- 11:37want to be, whether you trade spot or
- 11:39leverage. Uh there's all sorts of
- 11:40variations, but um one way would be
- 11:44well, we're above the 50 SMA and you can
- 11:48hope or or take an assumption that that
- 11:50is bullish until proven below. So you
- 11:52can be long here with a stop uh below
- 11:5676,000 targeting higher, right? And if
- 12:00that plays out and it works well, at
- 12:01least you have an invalidation. You have
- 12:03about a 10% drop. So if you're wrong,
- 12:07you lose 10%. And if you're right and it
- 12:09goes up only from here, well then you
- 12:11make whatever you make, right? 10 20 50
- 12:13100%. If it continues going up. So let's
- 12:15say it's a new bull market. It doesn't
- 12:17drop below the 50 and it goes to 200k
- 12:20from here. Well, then you get a nice
- 12:22whatever 130% gain or whatever it is for
- 12:25risking 10%. So if you're, you know, put
- 12:27in $100,000, you're willing to risk
- 12:30$10,000. if you're wrong for potentially
- 12:33120,000 if you're right and it continues
- 12:35going up. There's also the other option
- 12:37where you can see maybe we get a
- 12:40pullback and where that pullback is
- 12:42going to be it could be the 50 SMA.
- 12:44Maybe it continues to fill this fair
- 12:45value gap and it goes back to like the
- 12:47low70s and then continues up. So there's
- 12:50basically three options I think that
- 12:52we're looking at and and that's really
- 12:53here what I've drawn here. So, we have
- 12:55the option where we're now bullish and
- 12:57we continue up only, which I think is
- 13:00kind of unlikely based on what I've
- 13:02shown you, based on the timings, based
- 13:03on the central command overlays, on the
- 13:05short-term, the deviation warnings. Um,
- 13:07I think this is uh the least likely
- 13:09option. Uh, number one, then we have
- 13:11number two, which is some sort of a
- 13:14pullback.
- 13:16uh whether it's to the 50 SMA high7s or
- 13:19whether it's to the low7s to just kind
- 13:21of wipe out all those longs that think
- 13:23everyone is bullish and then continue
- 13:25up. Um that that's more of a
- 13:27possibility. I think that's something we
- 13:29have to monitor as the pullback comes
- 13:31where does it go and then you look on
- 13:32the lower time frames to see um you know
- 13:34does it hold as support in the high7s or
- 13:37lower 70s or whatever the case is. And
- 13:39then option number three, which would
- 13:41also be an option probably less likely,
- 13:44but maybe maybe not that crazy, which is
- 13:48just this whole thing being a deviation,
- 13:49this whole pump. And at some point,
- 13:51maybe after the midterms, maybe
- 13:53something happens, maybe some black
- 13:54swan, we completely retrace back down.
- 13:57We take out the lows, so 57K, and we
- 14:00really put in the bare market lows. Um,
- 14:03and that could be, you know, November,
- 14:05it could be December, it could even be
- 14:06January. um for a crazy low somewhere. I
- 14:09I would say 50,000 maybe 40,000. I would
- 14:12like to see 40,000s for the low. I don't
- 14:14know if we're going to get it or not,
- 14:16but it's a possibility and then uh you
- 14:19know 2027 2028 may be bullish recovery
- 14:23probably several months of chop after
- 14:25this happens. If this happens something
- 14:26like that. So that's what I'm looking
- 14:28at. Now, we're still in a situation
- 14:29where altcoins have really
- 14:33they they've pumped like 2 or 3x, but
- 14:36it's nothing too crazy. And they had
- 14:38bearish RSI divergences into resistance.
- 14:42They're still in bearish market
- 14:43structure. And there's possibility for
- 14:46altcoins to still drop 30, 40, 50% from
- 14:49current levels. So, I'm still not
- 14:50completely convinced the bottom is in. I
- 14:52think the risk window like I've shown
- 14:54you is till the end of the year. Okay.
- 14:57So, as we get closer and closer to the
- 14:58end of the year, we will know it's more
- 15:01likely for the bottom to be in. Whether
- 15:03that was as it is and we make a higher
- 15:05low and and the bottom has already been
- 15:07set or whether that bottom is still
- 15:08coming with some unforeseen events or
- 15:11crazy fear or the stock market selling
- 15:13off or black, whatever it happens, by
- 15:15the end of the year, it's going to be
- 15:17much more likely that the bottom is in
- 15:19based on these previous four-ear cycles.
- 15:21And then it becomes easier to start
- 15:24taking a position because we know like
- 15:26the chances of it selling off become
- 15:29less and less likely. Obviously, you
- 15:30always have to manage risk. There's
- 15:32always chances for black swans, 50%
- 15:34drops. So, be careful with leverage.
- 15:36Okay. Something that I wouldn't do
- 15:37personally here is buy altcoins on
- 15:39leverage right now because the altcoins
- 15:41can drop 50% in a matter of 1 to two
- 15:43days. We've seen it many times. And that
- 15:45means that even on a 2FX leverage from
- 15:48here, if it drops 50%, you get
- 15:50completely liquidated. And I've seen
- 15:51people lose hundreds of thousands, even
- 15:53millions of dollars because they think a
- 15:552x leverage is safe. On altcoins, it is
- 15:58not. Right? So, sure, you can always
- 16:00take trades. You know, if you're risking
- 16:01one or two% of your your bankroll, if
- 16:04you have $100,000 as a trading account,
- 16:06you're risking one or $2,000 if you want
- 16:08to take a leverage trade on an altcoin.
- 16:10That's fine because worst case, if you
- 16:12lose that one or 2%, it's fine. it's a
- 16:14tiny percentage of your bankroll and
- 16:16you're obviously going to base that on a
- 16:18proven setup where you try and you know
- 16:20if it works it works. If it doesn't it
- 16:21doesn't. That's not an issue usually.
- 16:23But the issue is if you leverage your
- 16:26whole trading account which you should
- 16:27never do um or your whole risk capital
- 16:29or more than your risk capital and one
- 16:31of these crazy liquidation flushes comes
- 16:33and you get wrecked and you get wiped
- 16:35out. And the worst part about that is
- 16:37that usually these coins always recover
- 16:39after the wipe out. Whether it's a month
- 16:41afterwards or six or 12 months
- 16:42afterwards, it doesn't matter. But if
- 16:44you would have had spots, at least you
- 16:46would have only drawn down and getting
- 16:47back to your entry and maybe in profit.
- 16:49But if you have leverage and you get
- 16:51wiped out and you can't buy back in
- 16:53because all your capital is gone, then
- 16:54you're wrecked and you lose all that
- 16:56money and it's it's it's like double
- 17:00double tilt, right? Not only do you lose
- 17:01your money, then you see you watch it
- 17:03come back to your entry or come into
- 17:05profit and you're like, well, if I only
- 17:07I would have had spots, I would have
- 17:09been fine. So, be very careful with
- 17:10leverage and oversizing and stuff like
- 17:12that. So, I'm very curious basically the
- 17:15next two to three months to see what
- 17:16happens if we still get a flush. I'll
- 17:18obviously be here to update um on the
- 17:21channel even more on a daily basis
- 17:23inside my VIP. And uh you know, if you
- 17:26haven't subscribed yet, subscribe, smash
- 17:27the like button, and I will continue to
- 17:30do these updates. And when I feel like,
- 17:32okay, we are really really in a new bull
- 17:34market now and uh things look good, I
- 17:37will say that. Right now, I'm still kind
- 17:39of cautious. As you can see in this
- 17:41video, I really still think there's
- 17:43potential for a bigger shakeout. Whether
- 17:45that's a flush to a higher low, so only
- 17:47like 20 30% and then continue higher, or
- 17:50whether it's a complete wipe of all the
- 17:53leverage and new lows, that remains to
- 17:55be seen. But as we get closer to the end
- 17:57of the year, it becomes more likely that
- 17:59the bottom is in. And I think 2027,
- 18:01we're probably going to see some nice
- 18:02upside also. So, that's coming either
- 18:05way. I think it's just good to be
- 18:07patient for a little bit longer.
- 18:09Especially also the the midterm thing.
- 18:11Getting that behind us, I think, is
- 18:13going to be a big deal. It's just
- 18:15another one of those wild cards where
- 18:17you don't know what you're going to get
- 18:18and what's going to happen after. When
- 18:20it's behind us, again, it's just one of
- 18:22those things, one of those potential
- 18:23catalysts for a big sell-off that kind
- 18:25of gets removed. If you need a place to
- 18:28trade, I trade on Blofen Exchange.
- 18:30There's a link down below. If you use my
- 18:32link to sign up to Blowin Exchange, you

- 18:47I've met the CEO personally multiple
- 18:49times. They were just the platinum
- 18:51sponsor of the token tour 49. So, they
- 18:54were the biggest sponsor of that entire
- 18:56event. They also did a crazy party. They
- 18:59rented out the top nightclub in
- 19:00Singapore called Marquee where they
- 19:03invited all the top traders and the VIPs
- 19:06and the Koss. So again, that's another
- 19:08benefit like if you trade really big
- 19:10with size and you become one of their
- 19:12top traders, you'll get invited to their
- 19:14events and their parties and kind of
- 19:15behind the scenes inside the whole
- 19:17trading community. That's also pretty
- 19:19cool. So again, it's free to sign up.
- 19:20The link is in the description down
- 19:22below and I will see you in the next
