This macro trading article is worth a look for beginners. Compare it with recent market trends, and if you're interested, I can continue this series, covering upcoming market movements and reusable analysis methods. There are plenty of people who only talk about price levels and predictions, but very few explain how to analyze investments systematically. If you like it, please like and follow in the comments.

I put a lot of care into writing all my articles!
Let me start with gold. People think that when an economic crisis hits, gold is sure to preserve its value and hedge against risk. That’s only half right. In the early stages of an economic crisis, it’s not just gold—high-quality stocks, such as SanDisk, and other highly liquid assets will all be sold off for cash. The market will reflect that money in the form of stabilization and a rapid rebound. So there will be a significant drop at first, followed by a surge as gold returns to its safe-haven role—in other words, first a drop, then a surge
Bitcoin and Ethereum work the same way. At first, they’ll be priced as risk assets alongside U.S. stocks. Crypto market movements usually lead those of other risk assets, and crypto bear and bull markets tend to arrive earlier than those of other risk assets. Right now, oil prices are high, institutional money is crowded into U.S. stocks, and there’s circular lending within the AI sector. The same thing happened during the 2008 financial crisis and the previous oil crisis: U.S. stocks experienced substantial pullbacks. So Bitcoin and Ethereum will definitely fall too. In the short term, U.S. stocks are in the early stages of a crisis. A crisis is about to unfold, so this bull market won’t last long, but it won’t be over either. Like gold, it will return to its safe-haven role in the medium term. After smart money flows out of U.S. stocks, it will look for new markets in which to grow its value—that means Bitcoin. The rebound after a bottom will be very strong, and in terms of timing and cycle, it should coincide with a mid-cycle rebound in U.S. stocks. So the early phase of this bull market will definitely feature a major bottom and a major rebound, moving in tandem with U.S. stocks. Ethereum could reach above 3,000 in this bull market; its recent low has been around 2,110 to 2,170,
Once it reaches 2,170, there will be plenty of intraday trading opportunities afterward
