US oil exports hit record as Iran conflict disrupts global supply

Veteran trader Peter Brandt is sketching out a highly conditional long-term 
path for Bitcoin that points to a potential peak between $300,000 and $500,000 
in late 2029, even as he argues the market still has not produced the kind of 
action that typically marks a durable bottom. In a post on X, Brandt wrote: 
“Should Bitcoin continue with the most remarkable cyclic patterns of any 
market in the past 15 years, an investable low is scheduled for Sep/Oct 2026. 
That low might or might not penetrate the Feb 2026 low. The next high (should 
patterns continue) will be between $300k and $500k in Sep/Oct 2029.” Thus, 
Brandt the target to a single condition: that Bitcoin continues to respect the 
cyclical behavior he says has defined the asset over roughly the last decade 
and a half. That leaves the near-term setup doing a lot of work. Before any 
2029 blow-off scenario comes into view, Brandt is signaling that the current 
structure still looks incomplete. Why Brandt Is Not Calling A Bitcoin Bottom 
Yet That skepticism came through more clearly in his reaction to a chart 
posted by JDK Analysis. Brandt’s reply was blunt: “This does not look like a 
bottom.” Related Reading: Bitcoin Recovery May Not Arrive Until October, 
Scaramucci Says JDK’s chart argued that the recent advance has the character 
of a “Short Re-Accumulation,” but only in a probabilistic sense. The analyst 
wrote, “As long as bulls fail to show clear strength and follow-through, the 
current low does not qualify as a strong bottom. This is purely a 
probabilistic view!” The setup highlighted repeated tests of local highs, 
fading volume as price pushed higher, and an invalidation level above roughly 
$80.5K, while suggesting continuation lower remained the more likely path if 
buyers failed to force a clean break. Brandt also amplified renowned chartist 
Aksel Kibar, calling him “the most accomplished pure classical chart analyst 
alive today.” Kibar’s read on the market was less about prediction than 
process, but the message was similar: technical structures are provisional 
until price confirms them. Related Reading: Bitcoin Enters Disbelief Phase As 
Traders Keep Shorting The Rally “Sometimes I get criticized by followers who 
have a position and want to see updates confirming that position on 
‘adjusting’ the boundaries,” Kibar wrote. “Well, as the market offers new 
information we need to adjust. We can’t be dogmatic about our analysis. What 
looks like a wedge, can morph into a channel. What looks like a bearish 
continuation can break above the channel boundary requiring action.” That 
comment was attached to a BTC chart showing exactly that kind of morphing 
structure. What had previously looked like a rising wedge was reinterpreted as 
a more clearly defined channel, with several rejections at the upper boundary. 
The chart also shows Bitcoin still trading below an ascending resistance line 
and below the 365-day average near $87,000, with the late-February washout 
toward $60,000 followed by a rebound into the upper-$70,000 area. Nearby 
levels around $76,500, $72,000 and the low-$80,000s appeared central to the 
current battle. At press time, BTC traded at $78,196. Featured image created
