BTC Q4 Outlook: Cycle Tops, Key Levels, and Whats Next

BTC, Q4 and Cycle Tops
i took the weekend off and i'm now back with a fresh analysis of what i think is in store for the next 3 months
BTC
i drew this fractal last month and surprisingly, it's been working to the T (till now)
if we did what we did back in march - april, we should bounce somewhere around these 2 magic lines called 1D EMA200 & 1D MA200 and resume ze pump in october
now, fractals are only as good as they look but this also coincides with our early september low around 107k and a sweep n reclaim of it would be quite bullish and would set the stage for Q4
but..what if we already bottomed last week?
well, a reclaim of 112k would pave the way for 117.5k and reclaiming that level would be omega bullish imo and if/when we do that, we probably make a new all-time high above 125k
118.8k - 112k is pivot so, if you're day trading, keep an eye on this level
Q4
october - december has always been an interesting time in crypto ~ almost all the major tops/bottoms have happened this time around only so, it makes sense for us to repeat the same, no?
to be honest, i dont know if we will top this Q4 or not but one thing i'm pretty sure of is, if we get a new ATH for BTC and majors, i would be taking the majority of my gains off the table
why?
because that's been my plan since the beginning of the cycle
plan the trade <> trade the plan
Cycle Tops
there's a lot of chatter going around whether we have topped or not but personally speaking, i think we have one more leg up in the next few months
i'm a big believer of 4-year cycles simply because it's been working for years, so, if we have topped before, maybe this time is indeed different but only time will tell that so..
you see, the issue here is, nobody 100% knows what's gonna happen and you can only "predict" by placing your bets, so i'd suggest developing a plan for both the scenarios
for me, my bull cycle invalidation is a weekly close below 1W MA50 because every time we have closed this line, it's the start of a bear market and since, it's been working quite nicely for the past few years, i'm gonna stick to this
tl;dr
- no cycle top yet
- higher price in Q4
- invalidation is 1W MA50

BTC has already dropped 10% since the short call, targeting 106K in the near term before pushing towards 90–94K. Despite bullish distractions, markets show signs of stress—retail euphoria, insider selling, and global economic strain point to deeper downside.

BTC is holding strong support, with R:R favoring longs unless $98K (1W50EMA) gets retested. Liquidations lean upside, with $106.9K a key liquidity zone. Sentiment is bearish, but setup favors recovery. Watching alts like $ASTER, $XPL, $APEX, $AVNT.
CrypNuevo/3 days ago

The current crypto market dump is driven by the quarterly $23 billion options expiry, rising US government shutdown risks, and the mass liquidation of excessive retail leverage. Ultimately, this downturn is viewed as a strategic whale setup designed to panic-sell retail holdings before the anticipated Q4 rally begins.

This article dismantles Tom Lees bullish thesis on Ethereum ($ETH), arguing he fundamentally misunderstands value accrual. Despite soaring RWA activity, network fees are flat due to competition and efficiency. The analysis concludes that ETH technicals are bearish, predicting indefinite underperformance.

An Argentine scammer exploited a crypto charity token, $CANCER, by using a malicious Steam game to drain a streamers wallet of $32,000, funds intended for his cancer treatment. The attacker, part of a group that has stolen over $150,000 from more than 260 victims, used an advanced malware that stole private keys from browser wallets. While the streamer eventually recovered his funds with the communitys help, the attacker remains at large and highlights the ongoing threat of crypto-related malware.
