In this YouTube market‑analysis video, The Art Of Crypto reviews the current state of several major assets—Bitcoin, EUR/USD, gold, the NASDAQ, USD/CAD, and oil—across daily, hourly and higher‑timeframe charts. He recaps a recent Bitcoin trade that lost despite a textbook setup, then explains why Bitcoin now shows mixed bullish and bearish signals (CSD, PD arrays, order blocks, a $50K liquidity target) and suggests avoiding it for intraday trades. The bulk of the video focuses on three high‑probability intraday setups: a short on EUR/USD driven by clear bearish PD arrays and order blocks; a short on gold with similar structure and a near‑term 4,500 USD target; and a long on USD/CAD backed by a bullish daily bias, emerging bullish order block, and 2R‑3R risk/reward. He also teases a swing‑trade opportunity on oil, describing a potential market‑maker sell model reversal. Throughout, he emphasizes risk management (2R‑3R targets), specific entry zones (e.g., 50% Fibonacci retracements, New York kill‑zone timing), and macro context (weekly Bitcoin structure, liquidity zones). The video ends with a promotional plug for his coaching/funding program and a personal sign‑off.

What's good, guys? Welcome back to another video. Just looking at the markets real quick before I get into the video, I see opportunities basically spread out across the board. And right now you've got 3 or 4, maybe 5 assets on Forex that are all printing a signal right now. Bitcoin is also pretty interesting right now. And so yeah, I'm going to get into a few more charts today than usual, but it's for a good reason because today is one of those, like, I don't know, like everything looks pretty good so far. And yeah, without any further ado, let's dive right into it. We're going to start things off though from yesterday. Now the Bitcoin trade, Yesterday ultimately ended up being a loss, at least for me, based on what I've called on the video. And, you know, I ended up taking the trade as well. Scenario that we were looking for happened exactly as we wanted it to, right? Price hitting this level at a key timing zone, followed by a CSD. This was all happening around that kind of like 9:30 to 10 AM kind of mark. Once the CSD happened, entered the trade obviously, and ended up getting stopped out, which at the end of the day, it's perfectly fine, right? We planned the trade and then we traded the plan and ultimately it didn't work out. That's not really a problem that we need to fix. It's just You know, if we have a 50% win rate, then that just happens to be the other 50% of, you know, losses. Perfectly normal. Like, it was a quality setup, just didn't end up playing out. But something that did end up playing out though was a trade on euro that we called yesterday on the Blueprint call. Like, if you guys are in Blueprint, drop a comment down below. Like, we took this trade live and we almost got shaken out, but ultimately we ended up hitting the full TP. Right now euro is still dumping and like there is another trade setup on euro today, so don't miss it. But now let's get into the actual video. We're going to start things off on Bitcoin because, well, You know, name of the channel is still The Art Of Crypto. So let's start things off there. So Bitcoin, you have a bullish daily bias. Now, so far you have confirmed that bearish CSD, which makes, you know, going long kind of sketchy in the sense that, okay, let's say if we start looking for a long right now, technically on the daily chart, we've already kind of confirmed bearishness. And so if we go long, like it's kind of like a 50/50, which is why I'm going to go on a whim and say that the other opportunities on forex today that I'm going to give you are going to be much more straightforward and probably chances are they're going to have a much higher probability of playing out as well. Purely because like right now you can kind of make an argument for both sides of the equation on Bitcoin where, you know, overall, yes, you know, you're pumping, but you have just gotten the first sign of kind of bearishness. You've got a potential kind of like heads and shoulders pattern going on. And more importantly than that is if we zoom out, right? This was something that I mentioned with the Bluepin guys yesterday on the call, but we're going to share a bit of a macro perspective on Bitcoin because one of the reasons that I was able to basically sell close to the top, at least on Bitcoin at $100K, was that I waited for the weekly chart to show me signs. In this case, there was two, you know, CISTs over there. And by the way, like, feel free to go back to my videos from back then and you will see the amount of bearish videos that I made during that time. Just basically like, hey guys, just go short. So I'm definitely not pulling this out of my ass right now. So understand that the reason why I was able to sell this right here is because I identified that, okay, there was CSD. Secondly, you're coming back into a PD array on the weekly chart. But since then, you've kind of been, you know, going back to a downtrend. And this downtrend is not over yet until at the very least, like, you overtake, like, you overcome $93,000, $95,000-ish. At the very least, once you get a kind of close above here, like, we can start to discuss, okay, maybe the bear market's over and maybe we start dipping back in. But for now, like, until proven otherwise, you are right now breaking market structure followed by coming back into some sort of higher timeframe PD array. And even if you were to go higher, you have another bearish order block over there. And thirdly, right now you've still got a liquidity target that you have not taken yet, right, which is at $50K. So if you're looking to buy, kind of buy the dip right now, this would not be one of those opportunities. If anything, this looks more of like an opportunity for you to dive into a swing short, to take advantage of a move from where we are right now, which is $80K, and to take advantage of, you know, a movement all the way down to $50K. Because this is kind of how it's looking like at the moment. Now, just from the macro perspective, like tying back into what we're doing on an intraday basis, like, yeah, you know, could be too zoomed out to matter, but you still got to keep that in mind. And hence, for this reason, like Bitcoin being, you know, kind of like, you can make an argument that, okay, for today we should go long, but you can also make an argument that, okay, you should go short. I'm just going to the 1-hour chart to see if there is anything, you know, different kind of developing. Yes, we've got a bullish CUSD. We're also kind of in a bearish CUSD at the moment. And so far, London has swept below the Asia lows and So far you have gotten a bullish CSD. So what I'm going to say is that most likely, right, if you're looking to get into a trade on Bitcoin, right, if you do believe that, you know, this is going towards the upside, right now you've retraced back into the 50% line of a, you know, Fib. And right now you've still got relatively equal lows right up top. So in the event that we dive into a long here, you ideally want to look for some sort of a sweep, or heck, it's even better if you don't end up sweeping, because You already have a CSD towards the upside. Right now, you just need price to just continue towards the upside, and you want to look for this to happen in between the hours of 7 AM to 10 AM. Why 7 to 10? Because today we don't have news, right? On a usual day, we could kind of like narrow this down to like, okay, news is going to be at 9 AM, so we're going to start trading from 8 and we're going to stop trading at 10. But today we don't have news, so we're just going to take the general, you know, New York kill zone. So like, yeah, you're just going to look for new bullish order blocks and new bullish fair value gaps and whatever to form during the New York session, and then you're going to just momentum trade this towards the upside. But again, Like, if I had the opportunity or like if I had the option, I would try to avoid Bitcoin. It's just not, I don't know, like this is not one of those things that I would trade purely because there are better opportunities out there. Let me show you this right now on Euro. So Euro is dumping like really hard right now and like you're still going towards the downtrend. And in terms of the 1-hourly chart, you are having very clear bearish PD arrays and bearish order blocks. Heck, like even London would have been, like London would have been the time to take a trade on Euro. Coming back into this order block and then boom, right, straight to the downside. Right now you're leaving behind another order block. So the setup for today, uh, on EUR/USD: retrace back into here, continuation towards the downside. You're targeting 2R into 3R in this case because like the daily target is really quite far away from where price currently is. And if you can get a 2R trade on EUR/USD today, just on a, you know, simple momentum trade where, you know, the trend is already confirmed and right now you're just kind of riding that train, perfect, right? Simple, no headache. And this is, you know, the type of trading that we we like to look for. Euro, that's going to be, you know, option number 1 for you today. Now gold, as you'll kind of start to see, is going to be very reminiscent to euro, right? You've very clearly, you're in a downtrend right now. You've already retraced into the order block, so it's as simple as looking for a short towards the downside. And right now you kind of retrace, depending on when you watch this video, like again, just take newly formed 5-minute order blocks and fair value gaps and whatnot, and you know, just target for 2R. Or if you go zoom out onto the higher time frame, you'll see that this is going to be a low that price is currently reaching for at 4,500, which which there is a very high probability that we are going to touch this today. So that will be kind of the intraday target. That's what I would go for. Now, as you'll kind of realize, this is a little bit different compared to the NASDAQ, where you have a bullish daily bias, but then price is currently looking a lot like gold and euro. So in this case, I would prioritize gold and euro over NASDAQ because right now this is against the daily bias. And besides that, we're going to look at USD/CAD, where we have a bullish daily bias and price is obviously being really strong at the moment. And if you go down into the 1-hourly chart, you will start to see that you have Well, you're about to form, right? Potentially, you're about to form a new bullish order block in about 37 minutes once this candle closes. Then if you get this bullish order block, retrace here, go up. Um, out of the 3 options that we've kind of discussed today, I'd say USD/CAD is probably your best bet in the sense that, you know, this hasn't really taken off yet. In terms of EUR, like, obviously it's already flying. And in terms of gold, it's, you know, kind of ready to fly, but like, this is still in the middle of confirming a bullish order block. And even if you just come zoom out on the 1-hour chart, like, yeah, order flow is very clearly bullish. And so like, this would be the opportunity that I would kind of focus on for today. And lastly, this is not going to be relevant for today, but if you're a swing trader and if you're watching this, I want you to get prepared for, you know, what may be about to come for oil. And I say may because this is not confirmed yet. If you take a look at oil, right, right now price is having some sort of a reversal. Right now you're still in some sort of a higher time frame, you know, kind of resistance zone. So you have one impulse up, two, 3 and maybe 4 moves towards the upside. Right now, if you get a move that breaks structure, right, if you get a CSD, this is known as, well, this is known as something called the market maker sell model, where you are coming like 3 to 4 impulses into some sort of a higher time frame kind of resistance level, followed by a full-on reversal targeting these lows over here. So for swing traders out there, I think oil is going to be one of your better bets out of, you know, so many charts that we have going on at the moment. But otherwise, I'm going to be posting any trades that I do take on Twitter. And if you'd like to work with us, where we are going to take you from where you are right now to $100K funded within the 3 to 4 months, feel free to click the first link in the description box below and book a call. And absolutely no pressure. You don't need to buy, like, even if we just kind of diagnose exactly what problems it is that you're having and kind of give you a solution. So that's going to be a pretty productive call. But otherwise, I'll see you guys next week. And like, yeah, what a beautiful sunset, by the way. Ah, it's good to be back. It's good to be back in Korea.
