Make Money with Bitcoin's Weekly Cycles
Exact Steps on How To Identify Local Bottoms and Profit from them
There are a couple of concepts that, when applied to the crypto market, bring (almost) guaranteed returns. I discovered this strategy after reading Walter Bressert’s book on Cycles. I built upon his strategy and applied it to the crypto markets two years ago. Since then, I haven't looked back.
This is a long-term strategy that delivers incredible returns—if applied correctly, it can double or even triple your capital within a year or two. And the best part? You won’t need to spend more than two hours per week on the charts. Sounds too good to be true?
Let’s dive straight into Bitcoin’s weekly cycles—I guarantee this will change the way you look at crypto markets.
Bitcoin typically moves in 24-week cycles. During a bull market, Bitcoin trends upward for more than half of this cycle (12+ weeks of uptrend). In a bear market, it trends up for fewer than 12 weeks, spending the majority of the time trending downward.
The most complex part of the cycle is the end of a bull market. However, if you follow this strategy correctly (I’ll outline the exact steps below), you can catch bull/bear reversals before they happen.
“ Enough bla bla, Master—explain this chart like I’m five years old. “
On August 31, 2020, Bitcoin made a weekly cycle low and began a parabolic move to the upside. It trended up for 18 weeks, followed by a two-week correction (~30%). Then, on January 18, 2021, another Weekly Cycle low was formed.
This was an extremely bullish Weekly Cycle, and we expected continued upside.
Next, Bitcoin started a new Weekly Cycle and surged again. However, it made a low in Week 11 and began trending downward toward another Cycle low. Bitcoin then spent 14 weeks trending down until it reached the ultimate Weekly Cycle low on July 19, 2021.
The next Weekly Cycle peaked on November 8, 2021 (Week 16) and reached a low on January 17, 2022.
“ Master, that still doesn’t tell me how to profit from cycles. “
Take a look at the Cycle Indicators below the chart—every Weekly Cycle bottom occurs when the light-blue indicator drops below 20 (or reverses just before reaching 20).
The best time to enter the market?
→ When the light-blue line drops below 20.
You’re primed to make money if you only buy Bitcoin (and some other cryptocurrencies) when the light-blue indicator is below 20.
“ 😲 Master, that’s nuts… Show me more recent examples! “
Sure — check out the current bull market:
The Weekly Cycle identified the ultimate 4-year cycle bottom (~$16,500), signaling that Bitcoin was set to move higher. Later, we saw a less predictable Weekly Cycle bottom on June 12, 2023. While the light-blue indicator reversed before hitting 20, that wasn’t a major concern, as it dipped below 20 in the next, much shorter, 13-week cycle.
That cycle triggered another massive rally—topping in Week 17 and forming another Weekly Cycle bottom on January 22, 2024 (with the light-blue line reversing to the upside).
Do you see the pattern? When the red line and the light-blue line meet below 20, Bitcoin experiences a huge price surge.
“ It looks like it’s impossible to lose money if I buy close to Weekly Cycle bottoms (or right after them). What about the best time to sell? “
