$BTC longs Target of 77.2k is getting close. Reminder to set limits. Alright, price continues to push in our favour getting really close to our target now. I remind you to set limits in case it swiftly rejects. They kept telling me price would keep going down and 77k+ wouldn't come. I re-assure you, it will. No, I wasn't very "right" about step 1, the right entry, but I was "right" about step 2, 3, 4, 5... of the trade. And step 6, the target, I believe I will also be right about. Trading is about not the entry alone, it's about management, and we handled it properly without giving it up, so far. The bears were loud, they all said I would go have to exit the trade sub 70k where I would give up on the bias of the range, etc etc. Instead, POI's respected, trajectory anticipated and target nearly reached now. I'll hopefully see you there, where I'll take out 60% of the trade, booking our second win in a row.

$BTC longs Eventually, we (almost) always get the prize. (I promise 77k+ - target 1 is coming). A beautiful morning dear community, with a clean push up on $BTC. Personally, didn't expect it to happen cleanly off our POI, instead I foresaw a liquidity grab first. But as I always say, actions speak louder than words. All we aim to do here is make money and do it consistently. And we make money when we hit target 1. Well, directionally and momentum wise, we are close. Distance wise, we still have some ways to go. But I keep my promise and tell you 77k+ is coming, even if the ride has been not as comfortable. (Set some limits at my target, I look to take out 60%). We guided you every step along the way so far to execute properly and that's what matters. Next, I look for another green candle above the green POI as well as holding 76k for a solidified run. If failure happens here, we still look for the weekend liq below the line into the red, where I aim to add. I am still not adding anywhere else nor earlier. The plan is treated exactly the same as it has been a few posts ago. Simple, disciplined, logical, and oriented towards making money. No nonsense, engagement farming, or shaming the wrong side of the trade. It's just business.

$BTC longs Still moving between our signatured POI's, as well as back testing 76k from the underside. A few have been guided to exit upon that retest of 76k without a loss. But personally, I am still holding. Once the weekend closes, I believe we get the liquidity grab below us, where I look to add, and then we reach target 1.

$BTC 3 days ago, I said new highs are coming. The shorts didn't listen and have been punished. I'm saying the same now, of new highs coming. The shorts are once again not listening. And will be punished.

$BTC Our 90%+ case strongly increasing with local order flow responding properly alongside swing trade order flow, making our long runners print So I'm for now placing this as a 1% - 1 week A metric often claimed voodoo, but those who truly understand what drives price, know.

$BTC longs Et voila! New highs achieved ✅ Thank you and good night Good morning, dear community. As called out in live time, and in advance, new highs were going to be made. Yet your entire timeline was probably saying lower just because we had a "clean looking rejection". "CME gap 66k will be filled". Could be true, but again, the very timing of bears saying it couldn't be worse. Not all rejections are the same, and this was a classic example. We laid out a POI and a high density area of liquidity below us where many were likely to go short. Keep in mind, there are many sub 50k believers still out there, but they are not randomly shorting all the time, they are just trigger happy for every reason to go short and one of those times is when the market "looks" like it's reversing. That's exactly what my last post was about. A point where many bears go short and where we said they are likely wrong. And then, we indeed detected the order flow and confirmed how most of those signatures went short. That means they place their stop losses somewhere. Where? At new highs. And that is exactly where we want to target the longs we took. And with just a simple peak at the order flow (just use coinalyze for example), you indeed see the OI drop sharply now, meaning, they are liquidating their shorts at a loss into stop losses or manual closes. That fulfils my promise, to take the stops of all the bears who were bear posting right as we went long. I know it sounds very countertrade-ish. But it's sheer the reality of this game. Only about 10% of people win in trading and win big (it's an exponential game). Speaking of 10%, I am still leaving another 10 in case we get 76/77k area.

$BTC So many bearish posts again all of a sudden. I still think we will make new highs. And I just took a long for it. Alright, so we scored some major longs last week on what has been quite a big leg up. And yes, we did hit major targets of mine, into which the longs have been fully TP'd except for runners, but as we were making the high, I said, don't worry for pullbacks, we are going higher. And now, we're just getting another weekend pullback. We're also hitting local support, and the spot premiums have just increased during this drop. I don't know how I can be more clear, but many people out here are still on edge of calling every single pullback the end of the leg IMO interpretable as a clear sentiment read. What if I told you they are wrong, this leg isn't finished yet and we could dig deeper into the POI, and we are going to make a new high of this leg, stopping out all the bears who are calling for lower right now, and most likely short for it during this weekend. I know it's hard to believe now that prices are low. But what's the toughest to digest emotionally, is the most profitable move in trading. We'll see, but during times like this, I want their money, and I go long for it. So without any further chit chatting and bull posting, I put my money behind my words. I always have by the way, from the very start of making this account, as the long term followers know. And yes, this entry is taken quite up high, it is a semi top blast, so leave some room to manage it. But we are making new highs, and that's the main first target.

$BTC Full analysis, plan and why it's not worth to be overly bearish, nor overly bullish either Local lows (75.3k) are unsafe, but I don't expect a deep bear market. Good morning. As you all know, my bullish bias established in the 80-85k range, where I expected the range to reach 95k and especially 112k, has just been invalidated. It held 11 weeks, we got a 20% move, got 95k move. From it, had a few wins (8), but also 2 losses I took myself (and 3 suggested trades), so let's count it as 3. Two losses defly from being too confident in 112k from the 80-85k range. Still confident in that level, but not from a trading perspective worth mentioning. So 3 losses, 8 wins certainly not ideal and below my standards/usual record, I made some clear mistakes as well as no readiness for unclear weekend-macro events etc. I certainly expected this bias to hold for longer and price going higher, but ah well. About my PnL throughout this range, it started out really well, of course as many know, but then ended up giving a large amount of it back unfortunately. Also wish I sold a lot more of my spot positions at 125k, as you know only posted to sell a tiny amount at 125k, same for $ETH at 5k. And of course, the first compounds of spot at 84k we aimed to sell at 112k, I also still hold and are below entry (for now). Plan next During times like this, draw boarding needs to be heavier as plan didn't work out. So I'm exactly sharing here what my plan is next, what I will do with my positions (action = key), and what type of trades (long or short) I am looking for as well as where, giving a deep summary and comments on thought process (which is key). As you know, I like to be thorough, one line doesn't define a trade, only a thorough system does especially now after taking some losses. And only the thorough reader gets access to my full plan. Top to bottom On big drawboarding sessions, always going from top to bottom (high timeframe then to lower timeframe). On the very high cyclical timeframe, I already expressed how, if my bias would fail and we close below 81k (not yet done but let's expect it for now), it's going somewhat lower, but it's not going to be a deep bear market. I drew the next purple POI (as per usual, purple weekly POI = similar style to every weekly low I called in the past) where I expect price to at least put in a serious countertrend rally from. To 112k? I'll get to that in later posts, not relevant right now. But it will be a "bottom" worth buying long timeframe on local confirmations The purple POI is quite a way below us but it indeed is not a classic -80% bear market, only 50% off the all time high. Another reason why I wasn't all too bearish high timeframe as it wasn't as important. I'm still wrong of course but as long as longs are exited, it's all fine. This worst case (but now turning likely) case of scenario is what I quietly once thought about would be the worst if I was wrong and we topped 125k, so here it is, the devils verdict I didn't but any weight on. I don't guarantee it yet, like I said, it's not entirely clear where I think the market will go next, so very much an if this, then that type of post here, with a worst case scenario (purple) in mind, but key to have for our long term (spot BTC, alts on confirmation only) thoughts. Moving down a timeframe (H6/H12, where my edge is focused and where I trade actively), We have weekend lows, as well as favourable cyclical timing for lower (cycle not done yet, more on that later). To our disadvantage unfortunately, execution was bad on that , but level worked very well as the one pivot deciding which way the 80-85k value area would break, the value area is still the same so I still have it on the chart. We also still have the 90.8k key level we pointed out which still held itself very strongly. To our disadvantage unfortunately, execution was bad on that as you know, but level worked very well as the one pivot deciding which way the 80-85k value area would break, the value area is still the same so I still have it on the chart. My actions So, actions follow naturally from plan here, giving both spot and trade actions Positional actions (spot multi-day/weekly timeframe) Since my bullish bias is invalidated, I am naturally no longer actively looking for longs. But also because I don't expect a deep bear market, I am not selling any spot here, I am in 80% in here, avg entry 34k, which used to be 21.5k (I'm sure many remember this post), but due to the recent ads at 84k 11 weeks ago, has gone up of course.. That's still a comfy entry, if you have a similar entry (I assume the minority I only had about 5k followers or so back at our $BTC 21.5k call. So I can already hear you: "what if I only bought 84k spot and I didn't have any before?" In that case, if you are heavily allocated, I would try to sell some (half) right now and especially getting closer to 90.8k (gradual but aggressive selling) I don't think selling all makes sense, given my expectations of not receiving much worse than a 50% drawdown at worst, and 84k already being down 30% from ath, are still decent entries. But it's good to keep a large portion open for the purple below to correct overall entry and position better for the next bull run. Swing trade actions (futures) Per last $BTC post, no longer exposed in perps, and bullish bias invalidated. I am not overly bearish as is clear from the chart, but shifted neutral. That means looking for a range for me to establish that neutral range and get back to trading it as well. Again not entirely clear where the range will form yet. But happy to trade it as we go. Not from the long side for now, but only from the short side, as I indeed see weekend lows get cleared and they also are defined weak on the TPO. But I'm not shorting from right here, rather closer to 90.8k (our key pivot/reclaim) for better RR as well as closing CME gap first i.e. 84k, only then targeting weekend lows. What if we go full moon (after taking weekend lows)? It's always possible, and doing so before hitting purple is of course also possible. But I don't see it likely at all before hitting weekend lows first, and even after, we very likely clear out the Mar-May lows first, and that already puts us close to purple, which should be deemed a magnet on proximity for demand and spread manipulation reasons. If it does happen though, I will gladly sell spot at 112k, the still existing magnet, but then expect a large downswing which I will look to short for a large move down. So in short, only looking for shorts at the moment. $BTC trends (down in this case) can extend, there still is money there, so that's what I look to grab, whilst keeping in mind high timeframe the bottom is likely far closer than many think (still going somewhat against the sentiment of this cycle playing out like 2022 and this range leading us all the way to 30k). Don't think so, likely bottoming much higher, but not yet and closer to the middle of the year. Trade entries will be shared live as always (which is key), and I always look to confirm with local order flow and will comment on it. Summary;TLDR In short, BTC broke my bullish bias, which I didn't deem likely, but here it is. This means I am not bullish for a while. I am not overly bearish either high timeframe as just expressed as I don't see lower than 60k, which isn't worth being bearish for, can't make much from selling spot in full and buying back lower, that's too risky. Instead just looking to swing trade, with taking a short if we hit CME close first, targeting weekend lows. If weekend lows are hit first, I will not be looking to long, at least not with heavy confirmation first. Going full moon is also possible right after clearing weekend lows, but I don't see that likely at all here after bullish bias invalidation. That is my plan for now, plus actions. Backed by price action, range theory, cyclical analysis, liquidity arrangement and my own core edge. So all-in-all, not too bad to hold spot through, which is why I am holding it. Key is to get in the right trades, and up the win rate again from the recent 8/11 wins (=72%) without forcing it. Final disclaimers I never guarantee 100% win rate. But I do always aim making (very good) money if risk managed well. I do know it's joyful going all in because you found me not missing for a long period on trades in a recent time right after you found me such as some dm's. But do risk manage, a good start is taking the same size on every trade. Yes, some of those dm's did proceed of people being liquidated because of my last 2/3 trades. But then I asked what size they took and it was 4 times higher than the wins I posted as they gained confidence in my streak. Not logical as most trades were exited before even hitting -1R and not held in long drawdown. Always same size (scaled to timeframe is the healthiest check. Enjoy the analysis, plan and comments on risk management.

$BTC 71.4k, that's better. Re-shorted now. Alright, you know the idea. After riding a big move up with longs, we are now planning to ride a move down. Same plan, same idea, same confluences and same story as mentioned in last post, but with a better entry. Shorting back down the move we rode up with full glory. Just entered again. Let's see if we can get 4 wins in a row.

Trading fee community refund, month 19 (Feb 2026) done, 6483.76 USDT just sent ✅ Ah, and I have just sent out your monthly refunds by the way. In the screenshot below, you see them all going out of my wallet into yours... My refund bot never sleeps, it wakes up every month to give you your share for the ones who made it through the application. Why I am doing this? In my young and developing days, fees always have been a tough hurdle to overcome, eating into the edge in subtle but palpable and permanent manner. A 2RR trade on paper isn't truly a 2RR gain, closer to 1.7RR - 1.9RR depending on direction and stoploss width. My fee refunds directly help you increase it more towards 2RR which boosts your trading. So whilst we build a community and you trade on the refs on either of two hand-picked best-in-the-game crypto exchanges I present, I help you in return for your help to build a community there. What do I get from it? I like to help, but it also helps me gain power in those exchanges to make improvements for the benefit of all of us. Making crypto better in general. The user experience of crypto exchanges is already miles ahead versus most classic brokers especially in my days (but I also don't like exchanges like modern standards of exchanges such as Robinhood, either way...) and for that we have the wealth and broad liquidity crypto has gained in the last 10 years to thank for. They are in a unique place, walking the edge of compliance, doing it well and keeping the international status of crypto (true financial globalisation, the final steps of globalisation). I believe that's only going up, so I enjoy being part of that with you all. Enough about that mission. Enjoy your refunds. Ps, you may notice the minimum amount is $0.1. That's because is I were to include everyone who generated less than that amount, my bot would take exponentially longer. Don't worry, your amounts still transfer over to next month until they exceed $0.1. Details below, in discrete manner.

Ironic how quickly many influencers shift their thoughts Today from ultra bearish to ultra bullish after I reposted my bottom call made months ago Yesterday, all while we only moved up 4%. Most stances truly are as reliable as a paper plane entering the storm.

I will be swing longing $BTC at 62.6K on 2.75X leverage. Target 150-160K. Projected duration: approximately 2.5 years. Risking $250K for 1.25M.

$BTC 67.7k ✅ They call it voodoo. We call it years of practice, collecting secrets, and execution. To showcase a one sided stance. Not calling for two directions and quoting back whichever one worked in hindsight. Instead, this is all called in advance and in live time. Again, and again, and again. Enjoy.

$BTC longs My next target is 67.7k Had this question commonly occur. "Where do we make money Astro?" The first place where I aim to reduce position size of this long is 67.7k give or take. That's the typical width of first trim of almost every trade we take. Hope that answers your question(s).

$BTC 125k hit ✅, FULL TP on the 111k long, thanks for playing Alright the story of our old long we took back right before September, completed! That puts us at 5 wins in a row again of our 5 most recent trades of my public record on X, and puts us at 2 months without losing any trades. Probably one of the longest periods I went without losing 1 single trade in a long time, all with a decent RR ratio too. Not going to force or let it get to me head though, just going to keep trading as normal as time moves forth. But certainly proud of this trade in particular as... ...we said we the price bottomed with high confidence, and no one really agreed, and even fewer were openly taking positions/distracted with other things are calling out to "be careful", if you remember the timeline back then - per my sentiment tracking log. At the time, our long was called in live time, and now it's up 15%. Timeline looking a lot different now with everyone celebrating new ATH's. To me, a great spot to TP, as part of our own celebration. If you have been trading along, congrats. You took my advice seriously and are now rewarded. See you on the next one. Ah and by the way, the other $BTC long, that one is still open. But for this one here, my job is done. Enjoy!

$BTC, our 63k bottom call, increasing the boldness The bottom is in for two months at least (please read the details before concluding) Five days ago, I mentioned that we likely see a potential bottom in our purple POI, and do so around 63k. Drew my arrow and squigly, and so here we are. Yesterday, price reached that level, and so I repeated this is likely a significant bottom. This also was the next significant area where I seriously consider flipping back to bullish after going bearish from 81k above us. I know it feels like Yesterday that price was at 81k, almost as if flipping bullish again here is a flip-flop. But in a bear market, bitcoin (crypto) drops fast, and a bearish bias doesn't have to be held for a very long time. $BTC dropped another 23% since I flipped bearish so that proves enough. My main stance also has been that I do not believe this to be a 60%+ bear market, nor will we drop much lower in the second half of the year 2026. So, with everything being called out in advance (since 81k), the level responding as it should, and local confirmation saying (to large extent) that this is a significant low, with quantitative data showing at least 2 months of repair necessary to undo the damage, right off our level, in a bear market, that repair means upside. So, I am going to make a bold call, based on all that data, based on all the sentiment, even ancient bears coming back up and suddenly calling for 50k, that's the perfect time to think this low is likely going to hold for at least 2 months. You may think: "what's the point". But it allows us to farm trades in the range and know that every proximity to range low is a good long, as well as early visits to range high (tbd) is a good short. And what happens after, might also become a surprise. I understand everyone is bearish, and I don't want this information to be taken like gospel. In recent time, we have seen I can be wrong as well. Although my bullish bias did end up holding into a range for a long time and resulting in nice trades off it, it was wrong and I expressed myself too loudly towards the end of it. So instead, I decided to change the details, into how I just think the low holds, and anything forth-flowing from that is natural, the tone remains the same however (bullish from 63k). And I will simply continue to take logical trades from there using that bias. Because I can't go against the data, the system and what we planned. So, after turning bearish at 81k, I will be bullish for a while again at 63k. I believe a range forms, and it's most likely favourably traded longside (but I will also be taking shorts). Not the most popular opinion. Many are busy engagement farming the bear market, of course. But I promise you the peak (today, Yesterday), happened at the worst times. Seeing some opinion hedging happening of how this could be a bottom as Feb March in bear markets are green. But without any action, it's just opinion hedging. So I just want to keep it honest and clear, what my thoughts are and how I see this progress whether it's right or wrong. Do not be surprised if we lose the low before end of March, just look at my trades, how I act and whether my bias changes again. But many of you know that I stick to my bias for a long time, it usually plays out for a long time, makes a lot of money, until right, or proven wrong. Again, a weekly close (or anticipated earlier per clear post), invalidates the bias and we can talk about 50k or below. But for now, that's not the case as long as our 63k is the bottom idea holds, as well as our "this won't be a 70-80% bear market". Cautiously for now by holding a low risk long, and 1 spot buy in, but more strongly later if confirmation leads us further.

$BTC longs Next target hit 💰Now patiently waiting for 70k+ Alright! Our next target we mapped out a few days ago is now hit. Indeed, as mentioned last post the bears had their round of engagement farming once (before Monday opens). Where they indeed came out with their macro thesis and how "Monday will close red" or "lead to new lows" or "how it's a good time to short". And twice, after Monday closed that also a green Monday would still lead to new lows anyways. All posted into the lows each time. Works well for engagement farming because people like to follow bearish posts when prices are low. But in terms of making money, they are all left in the dust now and compromised in their shorts. They won't tell you they're short now though because that would ruin their imagine. But anyone who watched order flow, can easily see many of them were short (hint - check the mid to low size section of aggressive short CVD on Monday open and after Monday closed). All power to engagement farmers by the way. I have nothing against it. But it's my job to keep my audience on the right side of the trade, not on the right side of the engagement, so we keep tracking the dynamics and use it as sentiment. I thank you for participating in this long. And if you remember, we are not calling it a win yet. If we hit 70k+ area, our final target before runners, then this is our second win in a row once again, and then we also have runners left for a potential juicy breakout. Enjoy.

$BTC 63k, midpoint htf POI and silver pocket hit. Do we get our bounce and form a range? I don't believe in hope though but I do believe in my system and that I always will even if emotions run high at the moment everywhere. So this post is not to inject hope, this is just to inform you that we are in the middle of our purple htf zone now, and the high timeframe silver pocket (the same that rejected and lead to the all time high with good high timeframe precision) at 122k (see quoted post). We "should" receive a significant bounce finally. Again for spot buys, I am waiting it out first and strategizing on that later. But a range is good for us, as it allows us to finally trade off it, hence why we plan for it.
