Is the Cycle Top In — Or Can Bitcoin Still Go Higher?

Lately I’ve received the same question from many of you:

"Is the top in? Or is there still a chance we go higher?"

As most of you already know — I’ve been very clear that 7 October was my most probable cycle top, based on:

• Planetary alignments

• Long-term cycles

• Gann timing

• Numerology and geometryAnd so far, everything since then has confirmed that.

But that doesn’t mean the story is over.

Let’s now objectively explore the possibility of more upside over the next several months — based on planetary motion and price behavior.

 The Jupiter Effect (Retrograde: 11 Nov 2025 – 11 Mar 2026)

One of the most important astro factors now is Jupiter’s retrograde motion, which began 11 November and lasts through 11 March.

What happens during Jupiter retrograde?

In many past cases:

• The current trend accelerates after Jupiter turns retro

• Then, after a few weeks, a major reversal happens

• The trend then continues in the opposite direction until Jupiter turns direct

• And then another reversal often occurs

📊 On the charts below , you’ll see how this pattern played out in previous cycles.

Where are we now?

• We’ve been in a downtrend for about 6 weeks, ever since the 6–7 October top

• This would suggest we are nearing the point in the Jupiter cycle when trend reversal is possible

• A reversal to the upside in early-to-mid December would be in line with that pattern

 Two Key Dates to Watch: 5 December and 22 December

These are the two most important time pivots I see coming up next:

🔹 5 December

• I have multiple different calculations pointing to this date

• Jupiter enters Gemini — major planetary energy shift

• The date is also confirmed by a square-out from previous lows

🔹 22 December

• This date holds the same planetary energy as 7 October

• That doesn’t guarantee a top — it means we should expect a major reaction

• Depending on what price is doing on the 5th, 22 Dec could mark another high or low

• This will also be close to quarter-end, adding more weight

♃📉 Jupiter Retrograde: Upside Scenario

If the trend does reverse up in December:

• Jupiter in Gemini may act as a catalyst for expansion

• We could see Bitcoin resume the bull trend until around March 2026

• And this aligns with my previously shared March window as another cycle turn date

 In between, I also have mid-Jan and mid-Feb marked as pivot points — but the strongest confirmation comes in March, where Jupiter turns direct, and other planetary alignments converge.

♅ What About Uranus?

Another major factor: Uranus also turned retrograde on 6 Sept 2025 — and stays retro until 4 Feb 2026.

Uranus is known for disruptions and volatility, and often when it turns retro:

• The market continues trending in the same direction for months

• Reversals occur shortly before or after it goes direct

So now we have both Jupiter and Uranus retrograde simultaneously, which is rare.

What does this mean?

• We are likely to continue trending strongly in one direction — either full bear or reversal in December for a new leg up

• The combined shift in February and March will mark a major inflection

💸 Let’s Look at Price Structure

Let’s compare the magnitude and time of the current correction:

• From the January high 109k to Apr low 74k, the price dropped 31% over ~3 months.

• From the October 6th high 126k to the November 21st low 80k, the price dropped 36% in almost half the time.

 This current drop is:

• Bigger

• Happening faster

• Breaking more support levels

This can suggest bearish exhaustion, and possibly a major trend shift aheadOr, if we are in a true bear market, this may simply be the exit wave following the cycle top.

 Bitcoin Dominance Hints

As I detailed in a previous article (on Patreon), my calculations from previous cycles pointed to a potential cycle top by the end of March. We can see this playing out in the Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) chart.

The first key date was November 4th—exactly when Bitcoin made its first lower low. At that same time, BTC.D peaked and has started to decline. The chart is now forming what looks like a head and shoulders pattern, which is bearish for dominance and points to it falling further.

Why does this matter? If Bitcoin dominance falls while Bitcoin's price rises, it creates the perfect environment for altcoins to start catching up. This is the classic setup for a potential alt season.

 Summary & Final Thoughts

So — is the top in?

✅ 7 October is still my highest probability cycle top

But… there is a real possibility that we get another wave up if:

• Jupiter suggests a potential trend reversal in early December.

• Uranus adds extra energy to Jupiter and can accelerate the current trend or trigger a major reversal this December.

• Price action shows an intense, accelerated drop that may have flushed out weak hands.

• Bitcoin Dominance is hinting at a rotation into alts.

• We either go into a full bear market.

• Or we reverse next month and rally into March.

These signs are pointing to a potential trend continuation to the upside into Q1 of next year, with several key reversal points to watch along the way.

Key dates to watch: Dec 5, Dec 22, mid-Jan, mid-Feb, and especially mid-Mar.

As always, trade safe and watch the planets.
