Welcome to Riding The Wave. If you have questions or feedback, please reply to this email. If you are new to the Newsletter, please check out what we provide on our about page and consider subscribing. Within the Newsletter, I provide News Summaries, Weekly Status Updates, & Deep Dive Articles on Specific Topics (Ex: How do I pick which coins/tokens to buy?). More details here
Small note, I plan to make a couple of housekeeping posts over the next 1-2 weeks with some information to keep everyone in the loop on what the plan is long term beyond the regular schedule I have posted on our about page (Ex: list of potential deep dive topics, area to request I cover specific ones, & release date for the different topics I have decided to move forward with). My goal is to provide areas where I can interact with you all, you can make requests, & overall be active participants in what content I collect/present on this newsletter.
I also wanted to thank you all for the support and for being patient as I work to continuously improve the content & its format on Riding The Wave.

Where are we Short-term?
Bitcoin is currently testing support at the $40,000 mark where we have found support in recent drops. It’s important that we are at this price point because we are already below the indicators we usually find as support (8 week, 20 week, 50 week) during a bull run. This means that this price level is more important than when we are testing a price point above the moving averages as they provide more potential safety points for the market to bounce off of, recover, & safely continue moving upwards.
Within the short term, I am still looking to see if we hold within the red box (an area we have previously bounced between throughout this bull run) or if we will see a sustained break downwards or upwards.
We are at 2 hours floating just under $40,000 which is likely due to people being more nervous/cautious this time as its the second time we have moved down to test $40k in the past 2 weeks and the 3rd Since September
From here there are a couple of possible scenarios:
Bitcoin holds $40,000 again further increasing support at that level & increasing market confidence making it more likely we see a return to bullish market sentiments.
Bitcoin drops further below $40,000 than we are currently hovering but jumps back up before the week is over, holding support.
Bitcoin drops down and it is sustained over the next week. I would view this as a bearish event for the short/medium term although I would likely buy up the dip. This outcome would also increase the odds that this bull run may be over early and the indicators may have been wrong.
Small note, when I say “hold” I am specifically looking to see if we move back above $40,000 within the next week. Bitcoin can briefly go under $40,000 and still be considered as having held that range. If it closes under it (as in the weekly candle closes ends under that price point) I would view that as a sustained drop.
