Will Bitcoin form a clear trend after the options settlement on the 26th? This has become the key issue at present. This logic was actually touched upon in the mid-month outlook on the 15th, and now it seems that this week's performance is crucial.

Whether the Christmas rally in the US stock market can continue directly affects the subsequent direction. The S&P 500 just hit a new all-time high last week, but what’s more worth paying attention to is when the Nasdaq can also refresh its record—once this signal appears, Bitcoin’s upward channel can be better maintained.

In the short term, the linkage effect between the US stock market and the crypto market remains obvious. If the Nasdaq fails to hit a new high for a long time, or if the Christmas rally shows signs of a reversal, then the entire expectation framework may need to be re-evaluated. The data and trends this week, to some extent, determine the certainty of the upcoming period. Hopefully, the market does not reverse course.

We'll know the result on the 26th, but the Nasdaq guy really needs to start moving quickly, or else Bitcoin's current wave will cool down.

Options settlement on the 26th? Bro, this time we really have to rely on the Nasdaq. The S&P is already excited, but the Nasdaq is still dragging its feet...

The options expiration on the 26th is indeed a critical hurdle. If the Nasdaq doesn't hit a new high, I'll be even more anxious... --- Can the Christmas rally hold up this time? It seems to all depend on the Nasdaq's performance. This kind of correlation is a bit annoying. --- Basically, it's a bet on the Nasdaq. If it rises, Bitcoin still has some room to grow. --- If I do the opposite this week, I'll be completely ruined. Seriously, no more surprises, please. --- It's been 24 hours since the options expiration. We still have to see how things unfold; it all feels like guesswork. --- The Nasdaq hasn't moved to a new high for a long time, which is strange. What's going on with the US stock market?

The options expiration on the 26th is a big show. If the Nasdaq doesn't hit a new high, I'll just relax and do nothing.

The options expiration on the 26th is a watershed moment. If nothing moves now, it really won't be interesting anymore. The Nasdaq doesn't hit a new high, and no matter how much BTC rises, it's all just empty... I'm watching closely. Does the Christmas market logic really hold? I doubt it... Crazy US stocks are setting the pace, and we're suffering along, so annoying. If there's a crash this week, we'll have to recalculate everything for the entire next month.
