Despite the geopolitical backdrop, he wrote that he would not expect a much deeper move lower and instead saw a possible liquidity sweep followed by a quick recovery, \u201cmost likely during next week already.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Crypto market commentator EGRAG CRYPTO <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/egragcrypto\/status\/2040738020060471464?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">pointed<\/a> to longer-term chart structure. He said past Bitcoin cycle bottoms repeatedly reached the 1.618 Fibonacci level before the market formed a base.<\/p>\n<p>He described that level as an area where fear often peaks and accumulation starts. The post framed that view as a structure-based reading rather than a reaction to short-term headlines. The account also urged traders to focus on charts and numbers instead of outside narratives.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, traders watched new posts from The Kobeissi Letter about comments attributed to Donald Trump on Iran and the Strait of Hormuz.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: The Kobeissi Letter\/X<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The account also <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/KobeissiLetter\/status\/2040770522212905437?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">said<\/a> Trump planned a news conference with the US military at 1 PM ET on Monday.
