🟠 Peter Brandt: “One more drop — then to ATH”

The classic chartist is back.
Peter Brandt believes Bitcoin could reclaim $125K as early as next week — but first, another “shakeout” is likely.

🗣 Brandt:

“Either a shakeout followed by a quick new ATH, or a break of the parabola — in that case, we’d drop back to $50K–$60K.”

🤔 What happened:
— On Friday, Bitcoin plunged from $121K to $102K after Trump’s announcement of 100% tariffs on China
— Over $19B in liquidations
— BTC has since rebounded to $112K

💬 Charles Edwards (Capriole):

“This is a reminder that even 1.5x leverage can be deadly. But the outlook remains simple: up.”

💸 Arthur Hayes, in his signature tone:

“Powell just declared the end of QT. Load the truck and buy everything.”

📊 Macro favors the bulls:
— U.S. inflation at 2.9%, labor market weakening
— Fed is almost certain to cut rates again
— Pav Hundal: “This is the perfect zone for Bitcoin.”

Bottom line: short-term turbulence is just noise.
The main trend is alive — and the market is gearing up for another leg higher.
We just need to survive one last shakeout.

🟠 Bitcoin Stalls Below $117K — Correction Possible Without a New Catalyst

Glassnode warns that without a fresh catalyst, the market could drift lower.
BTC is trading around $110,800, about 5% below the key $117K level.

📉 Glassnode:

“Without a new catalyst, the market risks moving toward the lower range. Rising profit-taking among long-term holders suggests demand fatigue.”

🗣 Shubh Varma (Hyblock Capital):

“This month will be volatile. Likely range — $116K–$120K. But most probable scenario is consolidation after the sell-off.”

📊 ETF inflows remain strong — a 9-day streak totaling $5.96B, with spot volumes steady. The market still has liquidity inflows, but lacks a clear driver for the next rally.

💸 Potential catalyst — the Fed.
There’s a 95.7% probability of another rate cut on October 29, and loose monetary policy has almost always been bullish for crypto.

🗣 Matt Mena (21Shares):

“With liquidations behind us and monetary easing ahead, market structure looks increasingly constructive. By year-end, Bitcoin could push toward $150K.”

Meanwhile, Arthur Hayes and Joe Burnett are looking further — calling for $250K by the end of 2025.

🟠 Bitcoin Falls to $105K — Banks Back in the Game

The 2023 scenario is repeating itself: U.S. regional bank troubles are once again shaking the crypto market. Bitcoin has dropped below $106K, marking a 15-week low.

📉 What happened

— Shares of U.S. regional banks are plunging, just like in spring 2023
— Back then, BTC crashed below $20K before sharply rebounding
— Now we see a similar pattern: fear, liquidations, and panic

🗣 Ted Pillows:

“$BTC lost the $108K level. The next support is only around $101–102K. If we fail to reclaim $110K — expect more pain.”

Analysts warn of a potential “direct slide to $98K” if buyers don’t step back in.

💬 SuperBro:

“If Bitcoin can’t hold, it may fill last week’s wick and drop toward the 50-week MA.”

📊 Gold Hits Records — but Schiff Won’t Stop Talking
Peter Schiff, as always, plays his part:

“Gold will reach $1M before Bitcoin does.”

He called the situation not just de-dollarization but de-bitcoinization.
Yet, some traders disagree — they expect a rotation from gold into BTC soon.

🗣 Jelle:

“It’s natural to see profit flow out of gold — that’s how the market always works.”

Bitcoin stands on the edge again, but history knows how this ends: first panic, then rebound — and everyone’s “back in the market.”

🟠 Coinbase: 67% of Institutions Expect a Bull Market in the Next 6 Months

Institutional investors are turning optimistic again. According to a Coinbase Institutional survey, two-thirds of respondents believe Bitcoin will continue to rise over the next six months.

📊 Key findings:

— 67% of institutions are bullish on BTC in the 3–6 month horizon
— 45% think the market is already in the late stage of a bull cycle
— Only 27% of retail investors share that view

🗣 David Duong (Coinbase):

“The crypto market still has growth potential. We’re seeing steady liquidity and a strong macro backdrop.”

💰 Who’s buying the dip:
— BitMine, chaired by Tom Lee, purchased 379,000 ETH ($1.5B) after the recent drop
— Michael Saylor’s Strategy hinted at new BTC purchases, already holding $69B in Bitcoin

Despite corrections in equities, DAT company crypto treasuries remain stable — a sign of long-term confidence.

📈 What’s next:
Coinbase expects:
— Two more Fed rate cuts
— Economic stimulus from China
— Major funds shifting cash back into the market

Bottom line: Liquidity, macro support, and institutional demand all point to the bull cycle still being alive.

But when it comes to altcoins, Coinbase advises caution — the focus remains on Bitcoin.

🟠 Bitcoin Heads to Close the CME Gap — Risk of Drop Toward $100K

BTC fell 2.5% to $107,460, attempting to close the futures gap on CME. Trading volumes remain low, sentiment is cautious — and the market is increasingly whispering about a possible “$100K test.”

📉 What’s happening:

— The CME gap at $107,390 is still not fully closed
— The larger gap near $110K (from late September) has already been filled
— Traders note weakness: each rebound comes with lower volume

🗣 Daan Crypto Trades:

“Bulls must hold $107K. If we revisit Friday’s wick, that’s a clear sign of weakness.”

🗣 Roman:

“Didn’t believe in a breakout without volume — and I was right. $100K–$98K is coming.”

🗣 Crypto Tony:

“If support breaks — prepare for $95K.”

💭 Bottom line:
Bitcoin is stuck between an unfilled gap and a fragile $107K level.

Without upward momentum, the road to $100K is wide open — and even $95K doesn’t look unrealistic.

🟠 Bitcoin Options Hit Record: $63B in Open Interest

The derivatives market is heating up — open interest in Bitcoin options has reached $63 billion, with almost all the focus on bullish strikes between $120K–$140K, according to CoinGlass.

📊 What’s happening:

— Deribit set an all-time record with $50B in open interest (80% of the market)
— $100K puts are gaining traction, but calls above $120K dominate
— The most active strikes: $120K, $130K, and $140K, each exceeding $2B in volume
— Signal: traders are preparing for explosive upside volatility

💥 This Friday, $5.1B in options will expire, with a max pain point at $114K — the level where most contracts lose value.

Meanwhile, puts only slightly outweigh calls — a sign of balance, not panic.

Bottom line: derivatives are screaming “up!”, volatility is spiking, and the market seems to be waiting for a trigger — to send BTC into a new round of price discovery.

🟠 Bitcoin ETFs lose $470M after Fed rate cut

U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded their largest outflow in two weeks — $470 million on Wednesday, the same day the Federal Reserve cut rates by 0.25%. Amid a volatile session, BTC briefly dropped to $108K before rebounding.

📊 Main outflows:

— Fidelity FBTC: −$164M
— ARKB (ARK Invest): −$143M
— BlackRock IBIT: −$88M
— Grayscale GBTC: −$65M
— Bitwise BITB: −$6M

💡 Bottom line: Total net inflows fell to $61B, while AUM declined to $149B, now representing 6.75% of Bitcoin’s market cap.

📈 Context:

— The market slightly recovered after the Trump–Xi Jinping meeting
— Despite outflows, ETFs still hold 1.5M BTC ($169B)
— BlackRock leads with 805K BTC, followed by Fidelity (206K) and Grayscale (172K)

🚀 Michael Saylor says there’s no reason to panic — in his view, Bitcoin will still reach $150K by the end of 2025.
