To be honest, this round of Bitcoin’s movement is completely within expectations.

The year-end drama doesn’t need to wait until next spring to unfold. Looking back now, that previous 83,823 level already set the tone for a choppy bottom. Next, it’s highly likely to see a tug-of-war between 85,000 and 95,000, with the occasional surprise spike to 98,000 or 99,000, only to be slapped right back down... Classic bull-bear whipsaw mode, almost identical to the wick manipulation during the deep correction in 2021.

Around the 20th at the end of the month, there’s a high chance we’ll see a sharp drop—a lightning-fast dip to 81,000, maybe even something starting with a 7. The goal is clear: wipe out stacked long positions, push panic sentiment to the limit, and make everyone think the bull market is over.

But the real show only starts after the panic.

Once market sentiment crashes to the bottom, the main players will start slowly pushing it up, with average daily gains of around 7%—it looks sluggish on the surface, but they’re quietly accumulating. Then, one day after Christmas, there’ll be a sudden massive green candle, shooting straight to around 120,000. Shorts will be wiped out before they even know what hit them.

And then?

You can probably guess... a vertical nosedive, taking another batch of people out.

Why am I so confident?

It’s not a wild guess—it’s because the underlying logic, rhythm, and wick-play of this run are highly similar to 2021. History doesn't repeat exactly, but the rhymes are often strikingly familiar.

I’ve already set my orders: BNB waiting to buy around 800, ASTER watching the 0.88 level.

Now it’s just a matter of waiting for Bitcoin to shake people out—then the opportunities will naturally appear.

The messier the market, the more you can see who’s swimming naked.

Keep your cool. There are real opportunities hidden in this round of volatility.
