Lately, I've been watching the weekly chart of Bitcoin, and the more I look, the more interesting it becomes. The current trend is almost a twin brother of the early 2022 period—both experienced a fierce plunge first, then several months of bottoming out, forming circles on the chart, and then failing to hold, breaking down directly from the ascending channel.

It's a bit heartbreaking to say. You think the bottom is right in front of you, only to find that the real bottom won't appear until November. This repeated probing process is a psychological battle for holders. Weekly-level movements often represent the direction of the larger cycle; once support is broken, there is usually room for further decline.

Looking at historical benchmarks, similar weekly patterns have occurred several times, each time first destroying optimistic technical expectations before a true reversal occurs. There may still be fluctuations in the short term, but this kind of large-scale pattern is definitely worth paying attention to. For investors with a long-term allocation mindset, this kind of decline might actually be a window of opportunity.

The weekly twin pattern is really hitting hard. I just want to ask if now is the time to bottom fish, are we going to get cut again? I'm really exhausted and scared of the psychological battle.

Oh no, it's the same old trick again. Every time they say the bottom is right in front of us, but it still takes two months to wait. --- I experienced that wave at the beginning of 2022 too. It's really the same old trick, unbelievable. --- Breaking the weekly support? Honestly, it just hasn't been fully broken through yet. --- Waiting until November? I'm already deploying at low levels now. Anyway, just play with spare cash. --- Psychological warfare is real. The worst thing is the feeling of being repeatedly cut out. --- History will repeat itself, but never exactly the same. Your comparison is a bit too simplistic. --- Respect the larger-scale patterns, but don't mythologize the weekly chart too much, or you'll get trapped. --- Long-term holders, raise your hands. I don't pay attention to short-term fluctuations anyway. --- How much room is left for the breakdown? That's the real key issue. --- Want to catch the bottom again? Forget it, better to observe and wait.

Looking at this pattern, it reminds me of last year's heart attack days, really exactly the same Here comes this routine again, every time I think it's bottomed out, I get hit hard, I can't take it anymore Wait, are you saying I also have to wait until November this time? Then I might as well lie flat Bottoming out is the most tormenting, more painful than a sharp decline, anyway I won't be copying anymore The weekly level is indeed fierce, once it breaks, it's gone, this time I need to be more cautious Will history repeat itself? I feel a bit timid, maybe I should wait and see Brothers who are long-term holding, are you now bottom-fishing? I'm a bit tempted but also afraid of getting trapped A downward break signal like this is really刺激, feels like there's still a story to tell Repeated testing is really exhausting, my mentality has been destroyed Where is the bottom? This time I learned to be smart, I don't believe in the technical analysis anymore

Damn, it's the same old trick again. Repeating the nightmare of 2022. Waiting at the bottom and still waiting for the Year of the Monkey and the Horse. My mindset is completely shattered.
