Hopefully, you set your sights on the return to $69k since our October 29th publication:
In the weekly start playbook, we stated: […] the rally has been fueled by futures since the weekend, so we may see liquidations and position closures in the short term. Given this dynamic, ideally, we should see a retest of the $68k-$70k zone, with $69k as our point of control.
Let’s explore what’s next.
The Greatest Fear is Uncertainty.
We went through a week full of fundamentals that could move abruptly Bitcoin and the markets—and that’s exactly what happened. Shifting from near-euphoria to moderate optimism, the release of macro data and earnings reports from companies impacted indices, leading them into corrective zones.
But now that this has passed, the biggest source of fear remains in the air.
The upcoming U.S. presidential election on Tuesday is the most significant short-term factor we face. The market’s fear isn't centered on which candidate wins—whether it’s Harris or Trump isn’t the main issue.
