Bitcoin Step‑Like Formation Update: Target Now ~$350K

  • Revised Elliott Wave count projects Bitcoin reaching $350K.
  • Wave 5 underway; watch for break above all‑time high to confirm iii.
  • Support preview: $75K for wave 4, next structure unfolding.

A fresh Elliott Wave (EW) analysis on the weekly chart suggests Bitcoin is in a classic step‑like formation. According to the new count:

  • Blue Wave 3 peaked near $110K
  • Blue Wave 4 bottomed around $75K
  • Now, Blue Wave 5 is underway, with subwaves i and ii already complete.

This structure hints at a deep retracement after wave 3, followed by a strong surge in wave 5. That puts the next major upside in play.

What Triggers Wave 5‑iii?

The milestone to watch is a weekly close above Bitcoin’s all‑time high (~$70–$75K), which would confirm the start of wave 5‑iii—the most powerful leg of the cycle. Historically, wave iii is the strongest impulse in Elliott Wave theory, often leading to parabolic moves. In this case, the bullish target is approximately $350K.

Key conditions to validate this view:

  • A break and weekly close above the ATH
  • Continuation above $75K holding as support
  • No breach below wave ii’s low—keeping the bullish structure intact

Why $350K?

Using Fibonacci extension and historical wave spacing, the projection puts wave 5 end near $350K. The step‑like build of i → ii → (now iii) mirrors the structure seen in wave 3, reinforcing the call for a massive upward trajectory once wave iii confirms.

What to Watch in the Short Term

  • Price action above ATH: Weekly candlestick close signals shift to strong bullish momentum
  • Retest of $75K as support for wave 4
  • Volume strength during wave iii—typical for an accelerating impulse wave

The US market narrative undergoes a "dramatic reversal": shifting from "AI-driven deflation and controllable US debt" to "AI squeezing the bond market, and Bassen unable to control long-term interest rates"

Deutsche Bank points out that the market narrative regarding the U.S. economy has shifted from "AI drives down inflation" to "AI-related bond issuance pushes up U.S. Treasury yields," but pessimism may be overdone. The bank believes that the real risks underestimated by the market are security incidents in the AI ecosystem, failed IPOs, or underwhelming revenues, which could undermine the dollar and support the bond market. In addition, France's fiscal difficulties are putting new pressure on the euro.

Deutsche Bank: The "fifth wave of tech stock rally" in US stocks since late July has peaked, prepare for a "V-shaped reversal"

Deutsche Bank has downgraded its rating on US technology stocks from overweight to neutral, noting that the fifth round of tech stock rally since July 29 is approaching the upper boundary of the long-term trend channel. The current upside potential is only about 4 percentage points, while historical trends indicate downside risks could reach 16 percentage points. Funds are expected to rotate into other sectors, and the European market, with its lower tech exposure, is likely to benefit relatively. However, Deutsche Bank emphasized that the long-term outperformance trend of technology stocks remains unchanged.

How expensive is AI computing power rental in the US? "Spot price" is twice that of long-term contracts, and four times the return threshold for cloud service providers.

The short-term spot leasing price for AI computing power reaches as high as $40 to $50 billion per gigawatt per year, while the price for long-term contracts is only $20 billion per year, and the breakeven threshold for supercomputing cloud operators is around $12 billion per year. However, according to Goldman Sachs, the fundamental reason why hyperscale cloud providers like Google rent computing power at such significant premiums is that their in-house capacity cannot keep up; once their own capacity catches up, the spot premium will disappear.
