​​👩‍💻 #REVIEW BITCOIN GLOBAL

I admitted that I am bullish in mid-term, time to reveal why! As you already know, fellow americans will get their stimulus package in late March - early April. Investing is in the culture of the US, so I suppose many of people will use their checks to invest in stocks and crypto.

Now let's try to track the moves of #BTC market maker. He obviously got in early and held through the pump. But did he actually swang to short? There was no big volume on top and at the beginning of the dump, so I suppose he still holds a decent amount of Bitcoins. It's really hard to close the position if you are a market maker! You need huge liquidity to convert your huge position!

Now let's try to associate huge MM long and stimulus checks - can you see what I see? This is the liquidity that MM needs! Thousands and thousands of people market buying #BTC! All market maker needs to do is push the price back up so it looks juicy to buy!

Here comes my plan for market maker in March: drive it back above $51k before the 22nd of March, pump it hard in the end of the month and keep the price on top selling on newbies that buy crypto with their checks! Actually first half of March doesn't matter, the price can drop to $35k and bounce back or it can go straight to $51k and sit there - whatever.

Now we get to the actual trading plan! I hold a lot of crypto, #BTC, #ETH, #BNB and stuff, but also have spare dollars to buy the dip. I will buy $40k - $41k and add if we get lower. The plan is to ride it hard once again and get out with market maker! If you are out of crypto, better start buying back right now, $43k is juicy price for #BTC and $1300 is a sure buy for #ETH! I hope we all have a wonderful month! 😍
