Episode notes
Whales, Short Squeezes, And Trendline Resistance
- Bitcoin price movements are being driven by short squeezes, whale buying, and a descending trend line resisting rallies.
- Expect further downside retests into the low $80ks and possibly the $70k range before clear bullish structure resumes.
Avoid Overleverage In Choppy Range
- Mind your leverage and avoid getting overexposed during choppy short squeezes that hit technical resistance.
- Be patient and consider waiting until mid–late January or February for clearer market direction.
Clarity Act Could Trigger Institutional Flood
- Regulatory clarity like the Clarity Act could be a major catalyst but may also extend a boring period while institutions prepare.
- If passed, it could force institutions to adopt blockchain tech and spark large-scale development and usage.
