Bitcoin Climbs The Wall Of Worry For the last few months, many have been debating if BTC is still in a bear or bull market, with most calling for new lows in the near future. As we look at the BTC weekly chart we see several clear levels of support and resistance that price has been respecting for some time now. I will be the first to admit, the price action has been slow and not very clear in either direction. However, I firmly believe the bull market has begun, in fact, I believe we've been in the midst of climbing the wall of worry for the last few months since the lows made at the end of 2022. There are a few things that should be noted. Never has Bitcoin had a rally of 100% during a bear market. Bitcoin bear market bounces are typically below 70%-80% and they rarely hold broken resistance levels as support for more than a few weeks. The double bottom followed by bullish divergence on the weekly time frame shows a clear shift in the crypto market's behavior since the start of 2023, and I believe we are seeing a clear indication of a market sentiment shift at the early stages of a bull market. Bull markets typically start with lots of uncertainty, followed by general complacency with the current price action. Often making large moves that go unnoticed by the general crowd, this is exactly what we see right now. As you look closely, we see a falling wedge pattern BTC broke out of at the beginning of 2023, and it even made a strong retest of support shown by the long wick at the end of March. Now we are resting on the 21/50-EMA's, using them as support for the last several weeks, we even might see a cross which is another bullish sign. In regards to current price action, if we see a break and weekly close above $32K Our next target would be the 42K region where i belive we will spend most of our time before the next halvening. Now, I'm keenly aware of the top signals many are talking about, mainly the resurgence of Meme coins recently, but I don't see this as a "top signal". I see this as a market sentiment shift, the market is clearly ready for speculation, and often times speculation starts in the smaller sectors of the market. A good example would be the stock market, many times you will see the smaller market cap stock move first, followed by the larger stocks afterward. I believe the market is anticipating a pause from the FED due to a clear decline in inflation, and this is starting to show itself in the recent price action in the tech sector of the stock market. I believe there has been steady accumulation happening across a variety of markets, including tech, crypto, and precious metals. This time in the market feels very similar to the 2015-2016 market cycle, where we saw slow and steady growth over the course of the year. I think this is very possible, and I believe it is the most likely scenario moving forward into the end of the year. On a side note, back to the meme coin topic... I believe the recent meme coin craze is a sign of a market behavioral shift that is much more bullish, but i also believe this is likely a trap laid out for the average retail investor. The whales draw in the masses by creating meme coins that have no value, while they silently accumulate the real crypto assets that have real value. This tactic is perfect for getting the small fish to sell their bags and chase the lottery meme coin dream while allowing the large whales to buy the best coins at a significant discount just before they see a large surge in price. I hate to see retail investors fall for this trap... Hopefully, the crowd starts to catch on before it's too late. Although I have a more bullish outlook for the future, I'm not ignorant of the fact that we could see a retest of the lows, this is definitely a possibility if we see another large rejection from the $30K region, but I see that as another opportunity at a discounted price before challenging the resistance again. I'm carefully watching the MACD, we could get a bearish cross which could spell trouble for a few weeks, but until that happens I will remain cautiously bullish until proven otherwise. I think it's riskier to be out of the market right now than to be waiting on the sidelines for the perfect signal, that rarely happens. I'm carefully watching for bearish signals, but for now, everything looks like we're setting a base for higher prices down the road. If you wondering, NO I do not believe now is the time to be taking leveraged bets on the market, now is the time to be slowly accumulating, getting ready for what the future may hold. If we do see another sweep of the lows (which is entirely possible) you run the risk of being liquidated only to see the price bounce back very quickly. I would like to give a WARNING... I do foresee a scenario in the future that "could" end this next bull cycle abruptly, hurting a lot of retail traders in the process. I DO NOT want to see Bitcoin challenge or break the ATH at 65K BEFORE the next halving in less than 300 days... This would be VERY alarming in my opinion. If this does happen, I give a STRONG warning to be extra careful, I could see a scenario where Bitcoin breaks the ATH at 65K + and then quickly shoots for $90K only to make a top below $100K and quickly end the bull market in the process, this has a fairly high probability of happening if we see too much excitement in the market before the halving. Keep this thought in mind... If that does happen, I could see a multi-year bear market which would be devastating for all us retail traders. In fact, I would plan for this scenario and be relieved if it does not happen. Plan for the worst, and hope for the best... Remember, stay level-headed, stay calm, and stay ahead of the crowd.

I'll keep it short, historically Bitcoin has ALWAYS respected the 2 week 100-SMA. Will it happen again?

As we examine the Gold chart we see the volatility has been increasing over the last few months. Many believe the price of Gold has become stagnant and will not perform well this year. As we look closely at the chart, we see the price has sold off over the last few weeks but seems to be holding support levels so far. It's possible we're seeing an Inverted Head & Shoulders pattern forming that could push the price above the 2011 previous all-time high. We'll need to be patient and see how price reacts over the next few weeks, but if we continue to see strength, then the likelihood of seeing new highs this year will increase by the day.

As we look at the 42K price zone we see a lot of confluence in this zone. BTC is currently at a very important price juncture and how it reacts will dictate the direction the market takes in the coming weeks/months. Personally, I'm in the bullish camp and I believe BTC has the steam to continue the bull market, unlike many others believe. I believe this price zone is far more important than many realize and admittedly, failure at this price zone will not be a good sign for the bulls. We'll need to carefully monitor what direction the market takes this week and react accordingly.So far everything looks good, we stopped right at the daily 200 moving average. We either pull back for a retest, or we keep pushing higher to the 61.8% fib retrace.Target reached, I want to see price hold the 40K support level and make another push up higher.
