Weekly Market Wrap: Is Crypto Nearing the Bottom Soon?

New: Join our 3-hour live workshop with Spencer to learn the basics of trading and make your first live trade!

Last weekly, there was a lot of focus on the crypto markets, with a slew of bad news, such as the cascading effects of the TerraUSD and Luna crash, Celsius suspending withdrawals, and 3AC capital going under, etc.

These provided good trading opportunities to short crypto and make quick profits, but as the market reaches maximum fear, it could also be a buying opportunity for long-term investors, since crypto is down roughly 75% from all-time highs.

With the Fed aggressively raising interest rates, it has also caused bond and stock prices to continue trending downwards.

I am currently net short on stocks pretty heavily, and will be posting again when I close my shorts and start accumulating for the long run.

Forex & Commodities Market Highlights

Only thing positive is USD/SGD. That’s why I’m holding mostly cash in USD. ??

 

GBPCAD Crossing 1.59140
British Pound vs. Canadian Dollar
SL for short positions

Stock & Bond Market Highlights

DXY Crossing 102.827
US Dollar Index
Long-term bullish trend, as US raises interest rates

SL: 103.265
TP1: 109.472
TP2: 118.474

As markets go into risk-off mode, the USD is viewed as a safe haven.

And as the Fed raises interest rates, which is likely to happen again on Wednesday, the US continues to climb.

 

US100 Crossing 11546.1
NASDAQ 100 Index
TP1 for short positions

TP1 hit for US100, waiting for TP2, but watch out for sharp counter-trend rallies!

Break swing low

SL: 69.51
TP1: 64.34
TP2: 59.32

 

REET Crossing 23.50

Congrats on hitting the TP, will wait for another pullback to short again! ????

 

US500 Crossing 3798.3
S&P 500 Index
Break swing low

SL: 3991.6
TP1: 3547.5
TP2: 3279.7

 

Product: Index (Measuring Fear)
Name: Volatility S&P 500 Index
Ticker: VIX
Exchange: N/A

Analysis: Historically, the market reaches a bottom once fear has reached a peak.

The VIX is a measure of fear, and as a rough estimate, the market tends to bottom once it reaches 45.

Only twice the fear was so intense that it reached over 80.

I have set alerts for these 2 levels so we will know when it happens.

 

Crypto Market Highlights

Currently we are about -70% from ATHs for BTC, and -77% from ATHs for ETH.

The strange thing about market bottoms is that the sentiment is usually the worst as the bottom is happening.

Not saying that the bottom is here, but we can use historical data to provide a benchmark for how far prices have fallen.

High volume sell-down on Ethereum (ETHUSD) today, trend is still bearish but high chance of a rebound based on observation of past instance of high volume spikes.

 

ETHUSD Crossing 1434.11
TP for short positions

A quick and clean short-term trade on ETHUSD! ????

Now it is most likely very oversold, so let’s watch for the rebound first.
