Tomorrow is NFP + D3 close - expect volatility.
Most altcoin D3 charts look rekt, but we still have one more daily close before we can say anything.
My expectations:
- D3 close that is bearish engulfing ➡️ nuke soon
- D3 close that is not bearish engulfing ➡️ more range / chop before nuke
Either way, conditions have been great for trading in both directions.
As always, it's the close that matters (not the wicks)

What people forget is that when crypto trends, it trends hard.
This is true in both directions.
I still believe we trend lower, and it’s going to be brutal.
94k remains the line in the sand.
Price has consistently struggled there throughout this entire downtrend, and a reclaim would turn this whole move into a deviation.
At that point, you don’t think about being bearish or shorting.
You don’t aim for 98k or 100k.
You wait for a move toward 108k, and for alts to at least double.
I don’t think there is a remote chance of that happening.
But even if it did, that's why I'm totally fine taking t

$BTC
Midrange + H4 EMA Cluster at 89kish
Perhaps a small bounce there.
Destination remains a stop run.

$BTC
Strong move off the lows, but we are at the range highs.
Bias remains unchanged and looking for a move below the range lows to sweep 80k
Start closing above 94k (range high) will take the L and consider my thesis invalidated.

$BTC at the range highs and altcoins mostly under last month's high.
I think people are forgetting it's a news-heavy week with NFP on Friday, and altcoins built no support built on the way up...

The biggest issue with altcoins is that support is much lower.
If $BTC sneezes and pulls back to just 89k-90k, that means 10–40% downside for many alts.
Those levels will be great bounce zones, no doubt.
But if $BTC dies, it won't last long and gets ugly fast.

The biggest problem with altcoins is that the support strength is much lower.
If $BTC sneezes, and the retracement drops to just 89k-90k, it means many altcoins will face a 10%–40% downside.
These levels will be excellent rebound zones, without a doubt.
But if $BTC dies, the situation won't last long, and things will quickly turn bad.

Barely touched Lighter.
Played around once or twice - not even 1M in total volume.
Assumed I was late and ignored it.
Logged in today and see ~$300 in $LIT.
Big fumble.
Lesson: always play with things and bet on teams building real products.
Congrats to everyone who won.
