The Choppiness Index is a volatility indicator to indicate whether a market is trending or ranging. Values range between 0 and 100, with low values indicating a strong trend and high values signaling consolidation.

The Choppiness Index is currenly peaking at levels only seen just before BTC expanded beyond major cycle ATHs with huge volume. The thicker the candle, the higher the volume.

US Unemployment Rate starts rising significantly again after printing a 70 year low. Recession is looming. Look at all previous rounded bottoms and how little time it took for a recession to swing in.

Bitcoin on the 3-day chart is exhibiting a "cup with handle" pattern, targeting $300,000. The price has broken out of the handle/bull flag formation and has successfully retested this breakout over the past four weeks. The logarithmic plot conceals the actual depth of the little handle which is actually 33% of the cup height.

  • Cup height = 69k-15.4K=53.6k

  • Handle depth = 74k-56.4K=17.6k

  • 17.6k/53.6k=0,33= 1/3

Feel free to call it a rounded bottom with a little resistance left around the previous ATH, just like the 3 year cup from 2014-2017. The target was well hit on log, and the handle contained a -34% dip.

Two weeks ago the following two scenario’s were discussed. Price has not yet made a decisive move for one of the scenarios to get invalidated.:

  1. Correction 3-4 on the right chart is already final, blow-off wave 5 is about to kick in. ATH needs to be broken for this. Peak target lies between ~$235k-$260k

  2. Correction 3-4 on the right isn’t final, first another leg down is next, wave C. After that blow-off wave 4-5 kicks in. Peak target lies between ~$260k-$330k

Invalidation: break below $31.8
