$ETH continues to follow yesterday’s preferred Elliott Wave count.
Wave 3 of this C-wave reached the extreme but precise Fibonacci 6.854 X wave 1 extension zone, followed by a wave 4 zigzag. Price now appears to be completing wave 5 of the larger fifth wave.
If confirmed, this would complete the corrective C wave and leave $ETH vulnerable to another move lower.
Trade the evidence, not the prediction. #ETH

PERFECT STORM INDEX™ 87/100 🔴
EXTREME RISK ▼1
Risk has eased marginally, but the storm remains firmly in place.
• Oil retreats, yet Brent remains above $100
• Middle East supply disruption risk persists
• Tanker shortages compound inflationary pressure
• BTC and ETH rebound strongly
• Broader geopolitical tensions remain elevated
Markets may be enjoying a temporary clearing in the clouds but this is not yet evidence that the storm has passed.
Capital preservation and disciplined position management remain the priority.

Technically, the ABC correction higher in #ETH may now be complete.
Price exceeded the wave 3 high, while the proposed wave 5 reached an excellent Fibonacci relationship with the extended wave 3, supporting a completed five-wave advance.
Alternatively, what I have labelled as wave 5 may only be minor wave 1 of a larger five wave sequence still unfolding within wave 5.
Both counts remain valid. The next pullback, and its internal structure should help distinguish between them.

I suggested (before the weekend) that #ETH may be completing wave 1 of 5 higher and that still holds true imo.
The most likely path is a period of consolidation around $2,450–$2,650, followed by another attempt higher, provided $ETH continues holding the converging 50- and 200-week moving averages near $2,470–$2,515.
Key levels:
Above $2,700 on a weekly closing basis: strengthens the breakout and opens approximately $3,000, then $3,200–$3,300.
Holding $2,450–$2,500: maintains the constructive short-term outlook.
Below $2,450: suggests the recent surge may have been a false breakout, with $2,25

We signalled this push higher in #ETH in advance, but there are now signs that momentum could begin to fade.
The weekly RSI is approaching overhead resistance but remains below overbought territory, although the broader bearish divergence is still evident. Price is also testing major moving-average resistance, with the shorter MA now below the longer MA.
Most importantly, the entire advance appears overlapping and corrective rather than impulsive.
Further upside remains possible but, at this stage, I would treat it as a corrective rally rather than confirmation of a new bull trend.

PERFECT STORM INDEX™ 20 September 2026
Today: 88/100 🔴 Extreme Risk
Yesterday: 87 | Change: +1
Key drivers:
Houthi attacks against Saudi targets deepen regional instability and threaten energy infrastructure.
Ukrainian drones struck Moscow oil-refining infrastructure.
Energy supply and refinery disruption risks remain severe.
Bitcoin is around $80,227, down approximately 1.3% today.
Elevated dollar, rates and geopolitical pressures remain unfavourable for risk assets.
Conclusion: The storm continues to intensify. Capital preservation and disciplined position management remain the priority.

Im watching with interest as the PSI remains high despite the positivity in #BTC & #Crypto - lets see.....
⚠️ PERFECT STORM INDEX™: 87/100
EXTREME RISK | Unchanged
Oil eased slightly, but the wider storm remains:
• Brent above $103
• US 10-year yield near 5%
• Dollar at a seven-week high
• Persistent Middle East risk
• Inflation and further rate-hike concerns
• Fragile underlying market structure
The PSI signals vulnerability, not a guaranteed market decline. The storm has not passed.
Capital preservation and disciplined position management remain the priority.
One Number. Multiple Market Sign

#ETH may have completed wave 1 of a potential five wave advance.
If this count is correct, a modest wave 2 pullback could develop over the weekend before further upside next week toward the $2,550–$2,700 region.
The broader move still looks corrective, however, so I remain alert to renewed downside once all five waves are complete.
Trade the evidence, not the prediction.

Even beleaguered #JASMY holders may have something to look forward to.
A short-term rally appears increasingly possible and perhaps a fairly decent one. RSI has room to move higher, while the latest corrective decline may be complete for now.
Short-term optimism, however, should not be confused with confirmation of a broader trend reversal.

Trading is a game of chess, not a game of predictions.
Every move depends on what the market does next.
Bitcoin’s current consolidation may prove bullish, but confirmation must come from price. If resistance breaks, we adapt. If support fails, we reassess.
Strong traders don’t become emotionally attached to one outcome. They consider the possibilities, manage risk and respond to the evidence, one move at a time.
The objective isn’t to predict every move.
It’s to remain in the game long enough to deliver checkmate. ♟️
#Bitcoin #BTC #Trading

A short-term target of $62 for litecoin:native would not be unreasonable based on the current chart structure, provided #LTC price can break decisively through the $57.50–$59.50 resistance zone.

#XRP appears to be on the cusp of a strong rally and could outperform many other #Crypto assets.
It is still too early to draw firm conclusions about the medium-term outlook, but the short-term setup looks increasingly promising.
Trade the evidence, step by step.

I have turned at least short term Bullish #SOl #BTC #ETH and most #Crypto.
During the consolidation shown I took multiple short scalping positions on various assets but that is no longer viable imo with the consolidation (shaded area) apparently complete AND RSI having broken an overhead resistance to push higher.

The hallmark of a successful trader is the willingness to follow the current evidence, even when it contradicts an earlier view. Adaptability beats dogma. It is never too late to change your outlook.
#Oil dipped overnight but geopolitical risk remains elevated.
The West’s most powerful leader is unpredictable and capable of unsettling markets through sudden military or foreign-policy decisions.
More positively though, growing institutional and political opposition may finally be placing meaningful constraints on his ability to act unilaterally.
Markets evolve and so must our assessment of ri

I see some Bullish signs for $ETH and so im challenging my earlier more bearish outlook.
#ETH appears to be in bullish consolidation.
Above the 50- and 200-day MAs
Golden cross intact
RSI positive, not overbought
A daily close above $2,650 opens $2,800–$3,000.
Below $2,330 exposes $2,200, then $2,050–$2,100.
Positive bias but no decisive breakout yet.
Keeping my power dry

#DXY is potentially completing a corrective structure.
A sustained move from D toward 103–104.5 could complete E/B.
Rejection there would support the larger C-wave decline.
A decisive break above the A–C boundary, especially above roughly 104.5–105 would weaken or invalidate this triangle interpretation.
Currently aligning with my thesis for a potential Q4 #BTC #Crypto low

#DXY is potentially completing a contracting triangle.
A sustained move from D toward 103–104.5 could complete E/B.
Rejection there would support the larger C-wave decline.
A decisive break above the A–C boundary, especially above roughly 104.5–105 would weaken or invalidate this triangle interpretation.
Currently aligning with my thesis for a potential Q4 #BTC #Crypto low

Which way should #BTC move from here?
Double bearish divergence, rejection from channel resistance and a bearish daily MACD crossover all favour the downside.
The first important test is $70K–$72K. Lose that, and the lower channel boundary comes into view.
A decisive break above $82K–$84K would challenge the bearish count.

The odds are now marginally in favour of another rate rise at next month’s Fed meeting.
However, a 50.9% probability reflects uncertainty, not conviction. Much can change between now and then.
If my thesis of a Q4 capitulation low for #BTC proves correct, I suspect the catalyst will be a geopolitical shock rather than monetary policy alone.
