Not enjoying the price action early in BTC, or crypto in general. It's not clean—choppy and remarkably weak given USD belted and risk-on. We saw a brief rally on Monday to ~72.2k and thats all folks.
Monday's open should serve as my pivot for the week: long above, short below, tight risk—especially with NFP on deck and a preemptive warning it may look weak.
I suspect crypto will be the number one vehicle to express a surprise downside in US employment, the way it's trading. Be aware.

My plan for the week ahead
Stoch crosses, pointing to sideways consolidation or upside continuation over the next week or so
Daily and Weekly Stochastics are resetting from oversold – classic setup for a potential bounce if we close above~$70.2K (weekly) Daily already

Bitcoin's price briefly touched $60,000 last week. Under a diminishing returns model, this is no mere noise. The market is touching the weakest link in the entire four-year cycle and logarithmic growth framework.

With the gains at the top of the Bitcoin cycle already significantly compressed, a further historically deep correction would completely negate the allure of its classic cycles.

This is not a prediction; it's a mathematical law.
