Bitcoin Poised for Surge Towards $85,000?Bitcoin (BTC) bulls are back in the driving seat, predicting a potential surge towards $85,000 in the coming months. This bullish forecast comes amidst heightened anticipation surrounding key U.S. economic data that could significantly influence investor sentiment towards the Federal Reserve's (Fed) monetary policy trajectory. Technical analysts are pointing to a trendline formed by connecting several price points on Bitcoin's chart, suggesting a potential trajectory towards the coveted $85,000 mark. This technical analysis hinges on the assumption that the price will continue to follow the established trendline. Factors Fueling Bitcoin's Optimism Several factors are contributing to the renewed optimism surrounding Bitcoin: • Potential Fed Rate Cuts: The upcoming release of key U.S. economic data, such as inflation figures and employment numbers, is keenly awaited by investors. If this data indicates a softening of the U.S. economy, it could bolster expectations of a rate cut by the Fed. A dovish pivot by the Fed, potentially lowering interest rates, is generally considered positive for riskier assets like Bitcoin, as it increases liquidity in the market. • Institutional Adoption: The continual rise in institutional adoption of Bitcoin is another tailwind for the cryptocurrency. Major financial institutions are increasingly offering Bitcoin-related products and services to their clients, signifying growing acceptance and legitimacy within the traditional financial landscape. This broader institutional participation lends further credence to Bitcoin as a viable asset class. • Scarcity: With a capped supply of 21 million Bitcoins, scarcity is a fundamental property baked into Bitcoin's design. This inherent scarcity, coupled with rising demand, could theoretically drive up the price of Bitcoin in the long term. • Store of Value Narrative: Bitcoin proponents tout the cryptocurrency as a digital store of value, similar to gold. In times of economic uncertainty or inflation, investors often seek refuge in assets perceived as hedges against inflation. Bitcoin's limited supply and decentralized nature position it as a potential candidate for this role. Technical Analysis: A Bullish Case Technical analysts utilize price charts and mathematical indicators to predict future price movements. In the case of Bitcoin, some analysts are pointing towards a trendline established by connecting several significant price points on the chart. This trendline suggests a potential bullish trajectory for Bitcoin, with a target price of $85,000. It's important to remember that technical analysis is not an infallible science. Past performance does not necessarily indicate future results, and unexpected market events can disrupt even the most meticulously drawn trendlines. Challenges and Considerations While the outlook for Bitcoin appears promising, there are still challenges to consider: • Regulation: Regulatory uncertainty surrounding cryptocurrency continues to be a hurdle for wider adoption. Governments around the world are still grappling with how to regulate this nascent asset class. Stringent regulations could dampen investor enthusiasm. • Volatility: Bitcoin is notorious for its price volatility. This volatility can deter risk-averse investors. • Environmental Concerns: The energy consumption associated with Bitcoin mining has drawn criticism. If sustainable solutions aren't implemented, this could continue to be a black mark against Bitcoin. Conclusion Bitcoin's potential surge towards $85,000 hinges on a confluence of factors, including the upcoming U.S. economic data, continued institutional adoption, and Bitcoin's inherent properties as a scarce, digital store of value. Technical analysis also suggests a bullish trend. However, investors should be aware of the challenges posed by regulation, volatility, and environmental concerns.

UPl | Wyckoff Events & Phases Explained Wyckoff developed a price action market theory which is still a leading principle in today's trading practice. The Wyckoff method states that the price cycle of a traded instrument consists of 4 stages – Accumulation, Markup, Distribution, and MarkDown. 👉TEXTBOOK EXAMPLE Accumulation Schematic: Wyckoff Events and Phases👈 Price Action Analysis And this is the accumulation stage - 1) PS— Preliminary Support, where substantial buying begins to provide pronounced support after a continued down-move. - Volume increases and price spread widens, signaling that the down-move may be approaching its end. 2) SC—Selling Climax, the point at which widening spread and selling pressure usually in high point and heavy or panicky selling by the public is being absorbed by larger professional interests at or near a bottom. - Often price will close well off the low in an SC, reflecting the buying by these large interests. 3) AR—Automatic Rally, which occurs because intense selling pressure has greatly decline. - A wave of buying easily pushes prices up. - The high of this rally will help define the upper boundary of an accumulation. 4) ST—Secondary Test, in which price revisits the area of the SC to test the supply/demand. - If a bottom is to be confirmed, volume and price spread should be decline as the market approaches support in the area of the SC. - It is common to have multiple STs after an SC. 5) SOS—Sign Of Strength, a price advance on increasing spread and relatively higher volume. 6) LPS—Last Point Of Support, the low point of a reaction or pullback after an SOS. 7) BU/LPS- Backing up to an LPS means a pullback to support that was formerly resistant, on diminished spread and volume. All the phases of accumulation stage- Phase A: Phase A marks the stopping of the prior downtrend. -- Up to this point, supply has been dominant. -- The approaching cutback of supply is evidenced in preliminary support (PS) and a selling climax (SC). -- A successful secondary test (ST) in the area of the SC will show less selling than previously and a narrowing of spread and decreased volume, generally stopping at or above the same price level as the SC. -- If the ST goes lower than that of the SC, one can anticipate either new lows or prolonged consolidation. -- Horizontal lines may be drawn to help focus attention on market behavior, as seen in the two Accumulation Schematics above. Phase B: -- Phase B serves the function of “building a cause” for a new uptrend -- In Phase B, institutions and large professional interests are accumulating relatively low-priced inventory in anticipation of the next markup. --There are usually multiple STs during Phase B' -- Institutional buying and selling impart the characteristic up-and-down price action of the trading range. --Early on in Phase B, the price swings tend to be wide and accompanied by high volume. Phase C: -- It is in Phase C that the stock price goes through a final test of the remaining supply. -- this marks the beginning of a new uptrend, trapping the late sellers (bears). -- It indicates that the stock is likely to be ready to move up, so this is a good time to initiate at least a partial long position. -- The appearance of an SOS shortly after a spring or shakeout validates the analysis. Phase D: --During Phase D, the price will move at least to the top --LPSs in this phase are generally excellent places to initiate or add to profitable long positions. Phase E: --large operators can occur at any point in Phase E. --These are sometimes called “stepping stones” on the way to even higher price targets. -------------------------------------------------- Regards, Revive Traders ------------------------------------------------ Guys check out the related POST as well, it went FANTASTIC ! 🙏FOLLOW for more ! 👍LIKE if U find it useful ! ✍COMMENT your views & feedback !

Taiwan Semiconductor - Unknown stock with trading potentialNYSE:TSM is one of the rather unknown stocks with an impressive market capitalization of 680 billion dollars. Just a couple of months ago TSM finally broke above a major previous resistance level and confirmed the bullish triangle breakout. Momentum is quite strong so far so maybe we will never see the previous structure again. In this case there is no need to actually chase the all time high. However, a pullback might still be quite likely and this might present an interesting long opportunity in the future. Levels to watch: $130, $100 Keep your long term vision, Philip - BasicTrading

PARAS DEFENCE Broken & Sustained Above 133 Weeks HighPositive factors – The outlook will be revised to Stable if the company demonstrates a material improvement in its working capital cycle and liquidity position, along with improvement in earnings and scale of operations. Healthy order book provides medium-term revenue visibility – The company’s fresh order inflows over the past four fiscals remained adequate, with orders worth ~Rs. 621 crore added in the last 21 months ending December 31, 2023. The pending order book of Rs. 526.3 crore as on December 31, 2023 (OB/OI ratio of 2.4 times of the OI in FY2023) provides medium-term revenue visibility. Comfortable capital structure and healthy coverage indicators – The company’s capital structure remains comfortable with TOL/TNW of 0.3 times as on September 30, 2023, supported by equity infusion of Rs. 162.3 crore during FY2021-FY2022 and low debt levels. The interest coverage stood at 12.2 times in 9M FY2024 due to the limited dependence on external borrowings to fund its working capital. Going forward, ICRA expects the coverage indicators to remain comfortable, benefitting from the scale-up in operations, given the strong order pipeline. Extensive experience of management team – PDSTL’s promoters have more than three decades of experience in designing, developing and manufacturing a wide range of engineering products and solutions for the defence and space sector in the domain of optics, heavy engineering and electronics. Its long presence in the defence and space sector has helped to establish strong relationships with its customers as well as suppliers. It has developed a strong management and execution team comprising several ex-employees of BEL and DRDO, among others. High working capital intensity due to elongated receivables cycle – The business is working capital intensive with NWC/OI of 88.3% and 114.8% in FY2023 and H1 FY2024, respectively, owing to the high inventory holding period and long receivables cycle. The inventory levels are high because of additional stocking of critical raw materials to avoid any disruption in the delivery schedules and high work-in-progress due to elongated manufacturing cycle. PDSTL has been partly managing its working capital cycle by stretching its trade payables by more than three months as it has a longstanding relationship with most of its suppliers and availing mobilisation advance for part orders. Going forward, the company’s ability to alleviate its working capital intensity while scaling up its revenues and improving its operating margins will be the key rating monitorable. Moderate scale of operations – Though the company reported a robust YoY revenue growth of 21% and 10% in FY2023 and 9M FY2024, respectively, supported by healthy order book and the timely execution of orders, the scale of operations still remains moderate. Given the Government’s thrust on ‘Make in India’ in the defence sector, PDSTL has been mainly catering to domestic demand (~84% of OI contributed by domestic orders in FY2023). Driven by the healthy order book status, ICRA expects the company to sustain its revenue growth in FY2024 and FY2025. High customer concentration risk, though largely mitigated by reputed customer base and repeat orders – The company faces client concentration risk with top three clients contributing 46% to the total order book as on December 31, 2023 and top five clients accounting for 51% of the revenue in FY2023. The client profile mostly comprises government organisations with repeat orders received over the years, largely mitigating the counterparty credit risk. A major part of PDSTL’s clientele included reputed government organisations, namely Laboratory for Electro-Optics Systems (a unit of ISRO), BEL, Instruments Research and Development Establishment (a unit of DRDO) and private companies like RRP S4E Innovation Private Limited and Unifab Engineering Project Private Limited. The company has long standing relationships with most of its clientele. PDSTL also exports to companies based in Israel, Singapore and USA.
