We could seriously be playing with fire here. I keep having to adjust my targets as it does not seem like 25-28k was our final top for the year. The market gets greedier and greedier and I'm seeing less and less people want to take a bearish stance, which is not a good sign to me. But I have been wrong about plenty this year, however the likelyhood of bitcoin doing anywhere from 31-41k seems to go up the closer we get to the new year.
Anyways, regarding the next few weeks, if we haven't seen our final top yet, I think we could be in for a far greater ride. I'm bullish for bitcoin but only cautious, not actively trading it. It feels like we are getting closer and closer to a release of selling pressure that will decimate the crypto markets at the very least. Things aren't looking amazing for the stock and futures markets either. Things may appear to be great right now as we are taking advantage of this amazing bull run but we are due for a major correction and crash in my mind still. We don't have much time in my opinion, and the crash will happen when most believe it can't or won't. Just seems like a very volatile time right now.
I'm still learning how to really read charts so I'm taking this bullish time frame to study certain aspects of the market closer. One interesting metric I've found is the Tether market cap in correlation with bitcoin price action. I've attached a lot of my bitcoin forecasting journey this year in the related ideas. Not all of it will be correct in the end but I'm finding good use in documenting my thought processes behind my conclusions.
