<h2 id="double-inverse-head-and-shoulders-formation">Double Inverse Head and Shoulders Formation</h2>
Crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader has identified what he calls a “supercycle formation” on Bitcoin’s long-term chart. He pointed to two inverse head and shoulders patterns, a setup often linked to major bullish reversals.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
 THE INVERSE HEAD &amp; SHOULDERS OF DREAMS
 Left shoulder. Head. Right shoulder.
 Not one but two. It’s the supercycle formation.
 This is the setup of a generation. Don’t fade it.<a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24BTC&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$BTC</a> to $150K.

</blockquote>

The first pattern stretches from 2021 to 2024, with the left shoulder during the 2021–2022 peak and correction, the head at the 2022 low near $15,000, and the right shoulder during the 2023–2024 recovery. A second, smaller inverse head and shoulders has formed in the $70,000–$95,000 range in 2025. Merlijn said:
<blockquote>
 “This is the setup of a generation. Don’t fade it. $BTC to $150K. Locked in.”
</blockquote>
Notably, the neckline of the smaller pattern is near $95,000. As long as the price holds above it, the projection is for a run toward $150,000. Bitcoin is currently trading around $111,000, with consolidation seen in the $110,000–$115,000 zone.
<h2 id="resistance-and-short-term-pressure">Resistance and Short-Term Pressure</h2>
Michaël van de Poppe offered a shorter-term view, pointing to resistance at $111,918, which also lines up with the 20-week EMA. Bitcoin has <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/btc-price-warning-sign-bitcoin-whales-start-selling-before-fed-cuts/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">struggled</a> to close above this level.
He <a href="https://x.com/CryptoMichNL/status/1963518143009067056" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">commented</a>:
<blockquote>
 “Resistance remains resistance, couldn’t break through it, similarly for the 20-Week EMA. If this isn’t breaking through, I would project we’re making a new low and that’s where you need to go max long #Altcoins.”
</blockquote>
If resistance holds, charts show a possible drop toward $103,000–$101,000, an area marked as a potential re-entry point for buyers.

<h2 id="cycle-outlook-into-2025">Cycle Outlook Into 2025</h2>
Analyst Ted <a href="https://x.com/TedPillows/status/1963243080636600467" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">compared</a> Bitcoin’s market action with the Wall Street Cheat Sheet cycle. He sees September 2025 as a period of sideways or bearish action, followed by a <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/wall-street-loves-bitcoin-etfs-but-the-network-is-struggling-to-keep-up/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">strong Q4 rally</a>.
According to his outlook, a blow-off top could arrive in December 2025 or January 2026, echoing past cycle peaks. He said:
<blockquote>
 “September could be bearish or sideways, followed by a massive rally in Q4. The blow-off top will be in Dec 2025 or Jan 2026, just like the past cycles.”
</blockquote>
Afterward, he expects a sharp correction into early 2026.
At the same time, Bitcoin adoption is strengthening. Analyst Lucky <a href="https://x.com/LLuciano_BTC/status/1963573237306085495" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">noted</a> that businesses are now allocating around 22% of profits into Bitcoin. He also reported that institutions have added $43.5 billion worth of Bitcoin to balance sheets in 2025 alone.
He wrote:
<blockquote>
 “With thousands of businesses buying Bitcoin daily, it shows no signs of slowing down.”
</blockquote>
This trend adds a fundamental layer of support alongside technical projections, with institutional and corporate demand reinforcing long-term growth expectations.
