As a trader, I typically position myself to bet on the upside, but only within the whale zone.

But with this report I'm neutral this week, I will look at the next report next Friday.

See previous posts for Bitcoin analysis.

#fomc meeting from few days ago made a lot of Messi în the market. The roll down of the $BTC liquidate în cascade many longs. Bilions of $ were liquidated.
Also the #dominance got a leg up to 59.9% area and #alts made a deep correction.

But looks like the market is already in recovery system. The bull run is not finished yet and the alts didn't said their last Word.

IMO we still have maybe 60-90 days în front from this bull run. But we saw already that the MM's cab surprise us în different ways. So, let's se what they have prepared for us.

Enjoy!
And of course Merry Christmass everyone!!

Why is the Crypto Market Down Today? 

The cryptocurrency market has taken a sharp hit, dropping by 3% to $3.3 trillion in market cap. Bitcoin’s rejection from its all-time high of $108K triggered panic selling, with $BTC now trading at $96,192. $ETH followed, slipping 10.5% in 24 hours to $3,383, alongside other top coins like $SOL and $ADA, which saw similar losses. Over $419 million was liquidated in the derivatives market, indicating significant volatility. US equities mirrored this decline, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq posting losses ahead of the Fed’s crucial interest rate decision. The looming 0.25% rate cut could reshape market sentiment in the coming days. Crypto’s volatility serves as a reminder of its high-risk, high-reward nature. Stay vigilant as the market finds its footing amidst macroeconomic uncertainty.

Bitcoin Leads the Market Slump 

$BTC 6.4% drop to $96,192 set off a chain reaction across the crypto market, with altcoins following suit. This correction comes just days after BTC reached an all-time high of $108,364, only to fall sharply as profit-taking intensified. Long positions worth $53 million were liquidated, adding pressure to BTC's price. Despite this, the 50-day SMA at $90,839 remains a critical support level, with potential upside if the price rebounds strongly. Investors are keeping a close eye on BTC's next moves, as a break above $113K could reignite bullish momentum. However, failure to hold support might push prices to $90,839 or lower. Bitcoin’s behavior often sets the tone for the broader market, so this correction has far-reaching implications.
