Ok, so we got a bit of a pump generated in part by the levels discussed here holding.
We got a poor earnings release from J.P. Morgan, and a jobs miss (and a PPI miss). The question before us is: has all of this been priced in? Are we going to head much lower, and if so, will that be now, or a bit later?
It’s possible that today’s pump is another “2” (last night I discussed the possibility of a 1-2 in green; today could be a 1-2 in the next, lower degree).
I last discussed Bitcoin here. If this still is a green “2,” just a bit bigger than discussed last night, we can wrap this pump up anytime between here and the orange box:
Which would make this pump across risk assets another bull trap.
So, let’s see what we see. I am supposing for the time being that this will probably fail.

If BTC fails–the entire market will have moved lower. BTC has moved with risk assets–correct?
Yes, that’s exactly right. Bitcoin moves quite well with liquidity as such.
