#BTC closed the week at 50%—50% of the wick and body. Now that Monday’s market is open, the price jumped and is moving sideways. Closing over the level could be an early attempt or a sign of reversal.

#US30 UPDATE:

#US30 is moving as planned. The index retested and moved around 2.3% in profit. I hope you closed the shorts on the call and took the long. Expecting it to print a new higher high now; hold on with breakeven stops.

The Strategy entity has acquired 267 BTC, thereby increasing its total holdings to 848,517 #BTC 📈

Sunday, October 4, brought the first daily close above the $85K wall, with the ETFs shut for the weekend. It was also a day of heavy profit taking. Of all the coins sent to exchanges that day, about 86% came from short-term holders, those holding for less than 155 days, moving coins at a profit. That is the highest share of any day in the past year; on a typical day it is under two fifths.

The sellers who met the breakout were the buyers of the past few months. If they keep sending coins to exchanges at this pace, the next push toward $85K would meet the same supply.

#BTC have moved a lot but are still wicking on both sides. Price is also sideways in the market, with further liquidity building on both sides. Therefore, we expect to see movement by the end of the month, as #FOMC will likely lead the next directional move.

#GOLD dropped further and is still falling before starting to go sideways. It is also below the key resistance area. This sideways movement is pretty good, as a break below can lead to more short-selling in the market, or hitting the major resistance can be taken as a signal to do the same.

The options market has turned bullish again. Both put/call ratios, for open interest and for traded volume, sit below one and in the lower third of their 2026 ranges. In open interest there are now about 0.56 puts for every call.

#BTC is still in a sideways market and has now nearly tapped into the key resistance area. With price building a flag formation, a breakout needs to happen now.

#BTC.D continued to rise and tapped into the key resistance area. The index rejected after tapping the zone and dropped. This drop means altcoins now have room to fly, but only if #Bitcoin remains stable or pumps up a little.

Premium paid points the same way. For most of the past year, traders spent more on puts than on calls: puts led on 234 of the last 365 days. That flipped after mid-August. On a 30-day average, traders now spend about $17M a day more on calls than on puts, about half the widest gap on the chart.

This is optimism building, and it can turn into froth if price stalls while traders keep paying for upside. History gives the setup no clear direction: in 13 past episodes since 2020 with short-dated calls this expensive against puts and volatility this cheap, Bitcoin was higher a month later in 7.

#BEL/USDT

A massive rally is expected from it in short term so getting a bag now✍

#BEL/USDT is rebounding from the support trendline of the symmetrical triangle. A decisive breakout above the triangle resistance could trigger an explosive bullish rally🚀

#BTC gave a breakout of the flag pattern and dropped hard after the liquidity hunt, as drawn. Price is now again approaching the support area, and holding above it is expected.

#XRP Analysis:

#XRP is going sideways, with the market stuck between the major support and resistance areas of $1.27–$1.29 and $1.57–$1.62, respectively. This range represents a 21% tradable opportunity. The price can move to the other end of the market, and once a breakout occurs, we can take proper long and short positions. Remember, candle closure on higher timeframes (HTF) is very important.

The one-year map shows the other side. The largest single cluster above price runs from about $87.1K to $95.9K and is heaviest near $92K. Half of it has built up since late March, as short positions gathered above the range.

Should price push back through the ask block at $86.5K, forced closing of those shorts could add to a move higher. Until then, the nearer clusters below price matter more.

#BTC had a break below the flag and a major area. Now price is retesting the zone as a support/resistance area. Even though it closes over it, we have to wait more for HTF closing.

#HYPE Analysis:

#HYPE is currently super bullish and is at the key support area of $74.50 - $76.70. Price can continue its rally, potentially aligning with the long-term move. A small pattern is forming on the lower time frames, but it is not very clear; however, longs are favorable.

The trading clock shows the same weakness. From July until the breakout on September 21, Bitcoin made most of its gains during US trading hours. Since the breakout, the US session has been a net seller, and all of Bitcoin's net gain has come in the rest of the day, including the weekend that carried Sunday's close above $85K.

US hours are when the ETFs and the stock market trade. Until that session turns positive again, the rally rests on thinner overnight and weekend trading.
