A cryptocurrency analyst has pointed out how the Tom Demark (TD) Sequential has just given a buy signal on the weekly XRP price chart. TD Sequential Is Printing A Weekly Buy Signal For XRP In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has talked about a TD Sequential signal that has appeared on the weekly XRP chart. The “TD Sequential” refers to an indicator from technical analysis (TA) that’s generally used for locating points of probable reversal in a given asset’s price. Related Reading: Ethereum Speculators Add $654M In Bets As Price Plunges To $2,800 It involves two phases: the setup and countdown. In the first phase, the “setup,” the indicator counts up candles of the same polarity (that is, whether red or green) up to nine. Once these nine candles, which don’t have to be consecutive, are in, it gives a reversal signal. Naturally, this signal is a bullish one if the candles leading up to the setup’s completion were red. Similarly, the asset may see a bearish turnaround if the candles were green. As soon as the setup is over, the second phase, the “countdown,” picks off. This phase is quite similar to the setup, with the only difference being that the TD Sequential counts up thirteen candles here instead. After the thirteen candles of the countdown are also in, the asset could be considered to have reached another point of trend exhaustion. In other words, it may be likely to see another reversal. Now, here is the chart shared by Martinez that shows the TD Sequential setup that has formed in the 1-week price of XRP: Looks like the signal has appeared after nine red candles | Source: @ali_charts on X As displayed in the above graph, XRP has completed this TD Sequential setup with nine red candles, a sign that the bearish trend may have reached an end. The signal has appeared as the cryptocurrency’s price has started to breach below the $2.0 level following a significant decline of 9.5% during the past day. It now remains to be seen whether XRP will now turn itself around like the TD Sequential suggests, or if more bearish price action is in store. Another digital asset that has witnessed a TD Sequential setup is Ethereum. In its case, the signal may be holding up so far.

Avalanche (AVAX) is coiling for a massive move. A potent Wolfe Wave pattern is forming alongside a test of a key weekly trendline. This structural confluence signals that the market is reaching a point of maximum compression, indicating that a significant directional breakout is imminent. Wolfe Wave Formation Signals Strong Future Move According to a recent technical analysis by BeLaunch, AVAX is shaping a notable Wolfe Wave pattern, a formation known for sparking strong directional moves once completed. This developing structure reflects tightening price action and growing pressure within the market, hinting that a significant breakout could be on the horizon. Related Reading: AVAX Reclaims Top 20 Spot as Securitize Chooses Avalanche for EU Securities Platform At the same time, Avalanche is pressing against a descending weekly trendline that has consistently acted as a major resistance level. A breakout above it would reinforce the bullish implications of the Wolfe Wave, while a rejection could force the asset back into a prolonged consolidation. For those eyeing long-term accumulation, BeLaunch points to the $11–$8 range as the most compelling buy zone. This region could provide strong support and aligns with key structural levels, making it an attractive opportunity for investors preparing for the next potential upside cycle. Historical Precedent: The September 2023 Rally Setup BeLaunch went on to highlight that the current Avalanche setup closely mirrors the conditions seen in September 2023, just before a major rally unfolded. The resemblance between the two periods offers a valuable historical reference, suggesting that the market may once again be preparing for a significant move. Related Reading: Avalanche (AVAX) Price Holds Key Support, But Analyst Warns Rally Could Be At Risk The analysis emphasizes that the same pattern is taking shape once again, increasing the probability of an upward move if price action aligns with previous behavior. Repeated technical scenarios often carry weight because markets tend to respond consistently under familiar conditions. If AVAX continues to respect this structure, it could set the foundation for a potential bullish breakout. BeLaunch also noted the importance of continued monitoring as the pattern progresses. Tracking price action, market sentiment, and overall momentum will be crucial in determining whether the bullish outlook gains confirmation. Any future decisions or expectations will rely on clear signals from the pattern as well as shifts in broader market dynamics. Avalanche is currently trading around $13.06, reflecting a mild intraday pullback as the market adjusts to recent volatility. With a market capitalization of approximately $6.3 billion, AVAX remains one of the notable assets in the broader crypto landscape. Trading activity has been strong, with its 24-hour volume sitting between $428 million and $445 million, signaling ongoing interest from both short-term traders and long-term participants.

MSCI is considering removing Strategy Inc. from its major equity indices due to the company's large bitcoin holdings, which some traders say could scare smaller players.
In a turbulent market marked by falling prices, Bitcoin (BTC) has once again dipped below the $85,000 threshold, driven by growing speculation that Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, may be on the verge of selling some of its Bitcoin holdings. This intensified after a recent interview on the What Bitcoin Did podcast, during which Strategy CEO Phong Le was directly asked whether the company would consider parting with any of its BTC holdings. While the firm’s former CEO, Michael Saylor, has consistently maintained a resolute stance against selling, Le’s comments have raised concerns about potential sales in the future. Is A Bitcoin Sell-Off Imminent? Le indicated that if Strategy’s stock trades below the actual value of its Bitcoin holdings and the company is unable to raise additional capital for preferred dividends, selling some Bitcoin could become a necessity. “If the stock trades below the value of our Bitcoin… then mathematically we would have to sell some Bitcoin. It would be the last resort,” he explained. While this does not confirm an imminent sale, it visibly places the option on the table, leading to increased speculation about a forced sale as preferred dividend payments approach due on December 31. Related Reading: Here’s Why The Bitcoin Price Is Crashing Today Adding to the unease, Strategy disclosed in a recent filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that it has established a USD Reserve of $1.44 billion to cover these upcoming preferred dividends and mitigate the interest on its substantial debt. This reserve was funded through the proceeds from sales of its class A common stock under the company’s at-the-market offering program. Such moves have diluted current shareholders and contributed to a nearly 11% drop in Strategy’s stock price. Strategy Downgrades BTC Price Forecast This shift contrasts sharply with the company’s previous forecasts, which predicted that Bitcoin would soar to $150,000 by the end of the year. Strategy has now revised its expectations, projecting prices to range between $85,000 and $110,000. The forecast for BTC yields has also been revised down to 24% from a previous estimate of 30%, along with projected Bitcoin gains decreasing significantly from $20 billion to $10.6 billion at the midpoint. Related Reading: $300 Million Crypto Bet: Kazakhstan’s Central Bank Gears Up As Bitcoin’s value continues to plummet, it further unravels Strategy’s financial outlook. Nevertheless, social media experts have pointed to a paradox within the company’s messaging. AlejandroXBT noted that while Saylor has consistently stated he will never sell Bitcoin, he has been conducting private presentations to clients outlining various strategic approaches, suggesting a potential disconnect between public declarations and private planning. When writing, the market’s leading cryptocurrency trades at $84,880, recording major losses of over 7% in the 24-hour time frame. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com
