Called Solana At $12 and Buying AGAIN Now | 20 Hours to $200K ★

I haven't been on the show for a while, right? I think it might be good to update everyone on where we we kind of left off and um I kind of make my decisions normally. I try to from a data perspective and we for the first time are seeing so many things that are different right now. And I think last time I was on the show it was an easy oh the smart money is shorting. Glass node says we go lower. The SMC bot is on a sell signal. So many things have changed since then. Um, so yeah, I'll run through. Let me uh just share my screen. The first thing that I've noticed is different this cycle has been uh CMC. If you look at Hyperlid, it's been the first bare market that we've seen altcoins have a rally, right? We we never saw this in the previous bare markets. As far as I'm aware, we've not seen altcoins go to $78 billion market caps at what's supposed to be the start of a bull run, right? And we're coming to that period now where historically the bare market ends around October and uh this time it's been different. And I didn't see this coming at all. You know, I hold my hands up and say I could have bought Hyperlquid at $20, right? And I thought we were going lower. I said, you know, usually we go down for 12 months and and and it didn't happen. So we have to acknowledge that first of all there is interest in altcoins. We do see utility um in the space and uh we also see that with Zcash, right? If we look at Zcash, by the way, I'm not not holding Ccash. Not a fan of it personally. I'm just saying we can't deny that it's sitting at 17 billion market cap. Um and it's pumped to all-time high in a bare market. I don't think we've ever seen this before. So, you know, where are we going to be as we go into the bull run? Is there interest in altcoins? Are there institutional investors that are looking at um utility in in crypto this early, right? What happens in six months? So, historically, Zcash pumping marked the top of the market. And this lined up with a lot of our other signals from Glass Node and and from Trading View. Um and uh yeah, you can see here top of the market, top of the market. But we've seen Zcash continue to be to be strong here. Um, so let me uh am I still sharing yet? So, let me share my other screen. >> Okay. >> And uh we'll show you I'll show you the trading view chart. >> There's loads of other altcoins by the way. Those are just a couple that I saw that have rallied. >> And then Wes at as you're bringing this up, I found something interesting as I was going through your playlist is you and Ivan are doing the same type of thing as far as like taking a look at the macro. I'm constantly checking the news, constantly checking the information because you are a swing trader, >> right? >> Yeah. >> But but but but you were taking a look at everything that's out there. Ivan was talking about his AI that he has that's kind of integrated and you are talking about your SMC bot also the integration that you're doing and help helping your uh your guests all over on Patreon or your members. >> Yeah, absolutely. So basically Ivan is one of the channels that I resonated with the most um because I was actually a delivery driver, right? I was delivering groceries and um I was listening to crypto videos and I was going through all of the the YouTubers and I came across Ivan and Ivan's uh thinking and his like logical take on things and also he used to be a dev right so he had a lot of experience >> he was at he was he was so right about so many things and I resonated with that and I listen to a lot of his strategy so a lot of the things I I talk about or the skills that I use in in the space I've learned from a lot of YouTubers um you know, including yourself. I learned loads of things from you. Um Ivan on tech. Um I could go on. There's there's so many there's so many people and and even some of the bad ones every now and then you'll learn you'll learn some good things from them every now and then. There's been some terrible ones that have said, you know, in these situations this means this and I've like and it's happened and I've remembered that and uh you know, you can pick up bits. Not everyone's going to be right all the time, but you can pick up some really useful information. But yeah, shout out to Ivan on tech because one of the things he said was um if you if you want to learn about this space, go and work in the space and literally the next day I applied to work at a crypto exchange and uh I got a job. I got a job at an exchange and then I got a job in the industry and I start before I knew it I was working for IRK building stuff for them. It was insane. Yeah, just from that one video. That's why I always tried to give people advice because you know you never know who's listening and and uh what impact it can have. But yeah, he I think he's got the he's got something that's similar to the SMC bar that also >> Yeah, >> very similar thing. Yeah, it's very similar thing. >> Um, so yeah. So, can you see the trading view chart? >> Not yet. If you can throw that >> uh >> but but I will just say as you're pulling that up, it's it's uh you know, you can tell good people when you meet them. And it's uh it's all about purpose of life, constant improvement, and also what's great is to constantly improve and help those around you. Those are the ones that you can tell. >> Love that. >> And this is why I resonate with certain people and they're on the show, and this is why I don't talk about other people when they're not on the show. And that's pretty much it. >> Uh I love that. I love that. And uh yeah, the stuff you're doing, Rob, as well, for the for the charity is amazing. I remember you told me about this last year and I already I jumped in and got involved. But uh yeah, big big shout out to you and the health and health and wealth stuff you're doing as well. So uh yeah, good vibes. Can you see the chat now or? >> No, I can't. >> Okay. Uh that's weird. It says stop sharing. Sharing this tab to Streamlab. Stop sharing. Okay. >> Oh, you know what? Because you might be uh I know why. >> Oh, am I clicking the wrong link? I think I'm clicking the Oh, I'm clicking the wrong link. >> Uh okay. Yeah, let me try this one. >> Yeah, that's how it is. So, someone's as you're pulling that up, someone's asking, sees your blink says, "Uh, how does dad drink his coffee? Black, no cream, no sugar. It's always straight up black coffee." And I'm fasting the whole day, too. So, this So, I can make the 20 hours. Very easy stuff. Very easy stuff. Okay. >> I started I started fasting, too. Yeah. The Nomad fast. So good. So good. Haven't eaten anything today. It's great. >> Well, I mean Well, that and all those spike proteins and things like that we talked about before. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> Okay. Yeah. Can you see the chart now? >> Yes, sir. We can. >> Okay, cool. Uh, so yeah, so we've got the SMC bar here. And basically, it gives buy and sell signals on assets, cryptos, stocks, commodities, whatever. And I had a rule this cycle. We didn't have this buy signal, right, last time I was on your show. We were on a clear sell. And I said, look, we're in a clear downtrend. There's no point in me panicking. I don't need to do anything. But one thing I don't want to do in a bare market is get too bearish, right? I don't want to >> the chart's been going down for 10 months. You know, we sold our crypto last year, not at the exact top. You know, we we took profits. We DCA out close to close to the peaks. We've done well and now we don't want to get too bearish and I myself was getting very bearish around 60k and I my honest target was around 40 to 50k somewhere between 40 to 50k >> and we did have this green bottoming signal flash here which I kind of didn't pay much attention to 69k and then we came down below that and I was looking at the previous cycle and the same kind of thing happened last cycle you see how we had this green bottoming candle here. >> Okay, >> we did come below the 200E moving average. We then came down to this final black swan event which I guess maybe you could say sale or selling was this cycle black swan event is possible. I don't want to say I'm not saying we can't go lower. I'm just saying look maybe it's possible. But the the main thing I want to talk about here is the first time we had the buy signal, it was the start of the bull run. Okay, we had the green, we came down, we had the buy signals at the start of the bull run, we pushed through the 200E moving average, we got we got over the 200 day moving average, which we we also have this cycle. And I can't be too greedy here because, you know, you start to get into disbelief sometimes. How can this be possible? How can we back back at 80K? And that's how most people lose when really you have to snap out and say, look, some people were buying at 120K. It's now 78K, right? Whether you get in at 60k, 58k, it's still only 20k from the bottom right now. It does suck. But yeah, I have started to dollar cost average in because I don't want to I don't want to um get stuck into that hope because hope is not a strategy and you could just hope and hope and hope and BTC could be back at alltime high before you know it. >> Um we saw the same thing happen on Salana. So look at this last cycle into the bare market, right? sell signal from the SMC bot uh up here somewhere into the bare market. Bright green bottoming candle and be take take into account these don't flash very often, right? It didn't flash the entire bare market and it it literally flashed at $12 around $12 and then the first buy the first buy signal was the start of the bare mark bull run. It did try to battle this moving average here, this SMC moving average. did try to battle this and it kind of broke through and uh but then look off to the races. So imagine you were bearish here going are we still in a bare market? You had a few weeks before it was up 3x. Uh so yeah again >> no good gone. Yeah, again we had the same this cycle, the green bottom. It did come back below the green this cycle. We haven't quite got a buy signal, but from my experience using this bot when you start to try to bang against this level, it's it's giving you the sign that it's it's ready to break out. Like it's tapped it, got rejected. It tried to close above, got rejected, and now it's kind of sitting below. It's kind of consolidating below resistance. Um, look, we could of course um spin to the downside here, come back, but after such a big move like this, you're going to get a lot of people DCAing at these lows. We're getting close to October, November now. I don't think we have the time to come down to some of these lower levels. So, yeah, I I I started to DCA as well. >> Very nice. So, I I got to tell you one of the things that uh first of all, go back to that when you showed the SMC bot going down to the $9 $10 range and >> on Salana. >> Yeah, on Salana. The one >> I got to see that again because it's always amazing to me as like and I've se and like I must be honest with you, Wes. I must be honest like I don't really put too much stock in it in the beginning because I was like ah Wes is just you know doing his doing his thing but who knows but over time I have seen a lot of things that have gone right and of course you you are one of the few ones that even said like hey I got liquidated this has actually just happened and these things happen right probabilistically no one's 100%. >> But it's all about moving forward. So like this this one right here let me put that in again. >> When did it flip? What was the what was the price exactly? >> Uh I bought Salana at the buyer. Well, I bought it around $23. >> That's pretty. So So we didn't hit the absolute bottom, which is what I'm I've heard from every single guest that has been on today. >> And you you haven't sold the absolute top, I'm going to guess. >> No. My first sale on Solana was 190. So you see this peak here? Sorry. Uh this peak here, 190. And then I sold 190. We came back to the SMC support and then uh I sold here again. We had another yellow candle up here. The yellow candles aren't as consistent as the green. You can see here they're not very consistent, but they don't flash up all the time, but if the rest of the signals are flashing up, maybe BTC's alltime high here, froth is crazy. We're in extreme greed >> and I see the yellow and I'm taking profits. It just helps me. It's easier for me to take profit. Same here, right? We were at froth, greed, back in greed. BTC was at a major resistance and then I took some profits here. Um, so yeah, you do get this chop around the end of the market and you could you could argue that when you when you get the first sell signal coming out of a bull run that is to me is okay, we need to be a little bit cautious here, right? We've just been in this rally for over a year now. We've had no sell signal. We've had these massive peaks. You know, it's gone up 30x from the lows. We got our first sell signal. Maybe we should just think, hm, am I getting a little bit bullish here? Should I take a little bit off the table and then eventually it turned into the final sell. You saw the final rally and then the final sell into into the bare market. The question is, are we going to get a buy? I don't know. We we also had another one on XRP. Let me just show you this. >> Oh, this would be good for the army. XRP army loves this. >> Yeah, I I'm not uh buying or holding XRP. I'm just saying we had another green flash here. And uh that's the first green since the the the the uh bare market. And look, we had a yellow up here as well. Yellow topping candle. We did short XRP this cycle. And um we did try to break this SMC weekly here. Look, we tried to break it here and got rejected. Got rejected again. It's quite similar to this the Salana chart, right? But from my experience, I don't know. it. You don't normally get these pumps like this and and you just come down and retrace the entire move down here and we have these green bottoming candles. We're nearly at the end of the bare market. >> Uh >> yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, for me it's a DCA. If we hadn't have had a buy on Salana and BTC and we hadn't had these kind of moves, it would be an easy just relax for me and just wait for the market to come down. But it's uh yeah, hope is not a strategy and I just use the data and the tools. They've served me well. We'll see in in five t months whether this this was the bottoming area. We we'll see. >> Well, I got to tell you, you're right along you're right in line with everybody that's been on so far as far as like deploying a little bit, not going a little bit too crazy, but >> yeah, there's a couple things. First of all, you're again trader and you have this mentality. My friend Jimmy here says Salana had a rear set set of circumstance with the FTX crash. Incredible amount of FUD, much stronger now. And he's talking about of course one down went to $9. Now you got a 23 which is a steal. I think anybody would love to do that. But then we have the mentality which is what is dog ass and what is not dog ass. But you >> excuse me being a trader don't really care. Correct. >> Uh with regards to trying to get the bottom >> right. >> Oh no no no no no. My my strategy is to try and I actually try to time the market using data and tools. 100%. I tried to turn the market because let let's think about this, right? If my top target for next cycle is 200k, 80 180k, the top target's going to change depending on where we bottom. I thought we were going to bottom between around 52k or lower. If we bought him on a 50% correction, then maybe you could argue the the higher targets higher. But we're talking about such small gains now that the the the resistance for BTC if it's at 180 200k, you know, it's like 80k 2x is 160k. A lot of retail aren't going to be interested. And I mean, maybe that's why we see a lot of interest in altcoins. I don't know. But yeah, definitely in the game of time in the market. Let me show you glass node as well because this is the first time in history. If this isn't if we aren't going lower, this is phenomenal because this is the first time in history that we have not seen um the glass node bottom. Let me show you. >> Sure. And then as you're pulling that up, I just want to remind everybody if this resonates with you and just so you know, Wes again, trader, Wes, use some leverage, I'm gonna guess every so often. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. So, if you want to do that stuff, which is great, and what Wes does, it's not just the SMC bot, it's also the macro, taking a look at the news and also use a little bit of TA you pull all together. There's a link in the description. I've got Wes for his ex account, also Wes for this YouTube YouTube channel. So, check that out, you know, after this and give him a follow. But, uh, let's take a look here. What does Wes got for us? Let me remove my stuff. And then there you go. >> Okay. So, this is the uh CBD, which is probably one of the one of my favorite charts if you're looking at BTC history. And every time it's come down to this orange line, uh you can see here it's kind of marked the bottom um back in 2019 again, we had another pullback here, pretty much came down to the orange line, marked the bottom. Uh we can see back here 2022 pretty much mark the bottom. And this is kind of where I was looking at for a retracement, this bare market. And for now, look, it's still possible that we come down to this level. It's currently sitting around 47K. For now, for now, it doesn't look like we're going to do we're going to do that. But I mean, to ask Bitcoin to come from 80K to 47K in such a short amount of time, you know, anything's on the cards, but I just can't see it happening this this far into the bare market with some of the stuff I'm seeing on chain as well. And it's the same across the board um with a lot of this this glass node data. Um, let me show you uh let me show you the other chart as well. Just jump back to last one. >> Yeah, I I I think I think we have to be open to that. Um, I think we have to be open to that. Let me share this one as well. Um I think yeah, it's always everything I've learned is, you know, don't lean into this time's different until it's different. And and I tried to value uh that experience from from like longtime traders and longtime investors. I've been in the game six years. So I try to I can't know everything. I don't know everything. I'm going to make mistakes. And I try to value their knowledge. And you know, they say stick to stick to stick to the story until it changes. Um but yeah, >> it does look I'm just gonna say it does very it looks like this time is going to be different. Uh this is the NUPL. >> Um we came down into the red bottom of the market. Uh you know green top, red bottom, green top, red bottom. This also helped us take some profits this cycle. We used this along with >> uh you know a lot of the other charts we were looking at. A lot of the other data the yellow SMC topping candles were topping around actually in fact it topped around these green peaks here. same same row. We had a lot of confluence. It was getting a bit frothy and then we came into the orange and the next phase is usually red. Uh but now we're creeping back into the yellow. And can you see also Rob on this chart? I haven't seen anyone really talk about this, but I saw this the other day. Uh higher low, higher low, higher low. >> I have not I would not look at that, but yes, >> lower high, lower high, lower high. So it almost looks like a penant. Uh if you were to draw a trend line on these, it looks like one gigantic penant that if this is the new lower high, this is consolidating into a triangle penant shape, >> which you would expect is going to break out either to the upside or downside. That's just my speculation, but this this can't really go on forever. Um unless the gains unless it kind of fizzles out and becomes stable, it has to break out at some point or another. So look for the bulls out there maybe this is the cycle where we break to the upside right this if we have a 50% correction for the first time was just over 50%. And the the charts are kind of forming into this penant. Hey maybe there is a new a new upside breakout for BTC um and crypto. We've also seen the first bare market where we've seen altcoins pushing into 50 billion market cap. So you know there are signs here. There's signs on both sides. One thing I will say is the smart money are shorting the market like crazy and it's rare for them to get it wrong. They've been right for for as long as I've been tracing them on chain. They've been right and they're there is shorting like crazy. A brais are like $500 u million uh 500 million short at the moment on BTC E and some other assets. Um so yeah, that's confusing. I don't know what that the angle is there. The angle is as always, and you talked about this in one of your videos, it's about liquidating shorts, liquidating longs, and being manipulation and just getting it. >> Yeah.$10 billion in liquidations, and I didn't see one tweet about anyone saying they got liquidated. >> Every everyone won. Everyone won. >> Yeah, I'm a winner. I timed it perfectly. Here's my price prediction. That is the 30th one, even though the other 29 were dog >> s anyhow. >> Yeah. So Wes, I don't want to take too much of time. I got and then we got our next guest. But the but first of all, if you guys like what Wes is talking about, check out his ex, check out his YouTube channel. And then especially if you're look looking to do a little bit of dabbling into the trading market, Wes would uh is a is a good one to to definitely follow. What's otherwise? >> Yeah. So I was going to say for now um I have started to buy old coins again. um especially after what we saw with Zcash and and Hyperlquid. I do think altcoins are going to do very well this cycle. One of the main narratives I'm interested in is Robin Hood. Um so the Robin Hood, >> right? >> I don't know if you've seen Pawns. Have you seen Pawns is going absolutely crazy right now. I think it's like f just broken through 500 million market cap. Uh getting listed to Robin Hood. Um I might be able to share it actually. Have you got my if you go on my Twitter? Um, if you go on my Twitter page. >> Yeah. And then scroll down. I think I posted my top five um memes that I'm interested in. >> There you go. Uh, Pawns Index, Cash Cat, Baby Cash Cat. So, Ponz is basically the pump fund. So, obviously, um, Robin Hood chain just launched. We're probably going to see loads of innovative new projects. And, um, Pawns is the pump fund of Robin Hood chain. Okay. So, it's a no-brainer. It didn't have a pump fund. We know there's a lot of interest in PE in launchpads and and meme coins. And uh yeah, the that was a no-brainer for me. Doing huge huge volume, huge uh uh revenue. I think I think the other day they done a million dollars in revenue and they're also putting 80% of their revenue into buying back ponds, which is why it it kind of becomes a Ponzi, right? they just they keep buying back the token, buying back similar to Hyperliquid. Um the thing the thing I like about it was like an organic launch um as opposed to uh you know some of these VC projects that have a lot of VCs. So it's it was really organic. >> Cash Cat so far is the number one meme on Robin Hood chain. Makes sense to me. We got into Pepe in the bare market last cycle. I think it's going to be the Pepe of this cycle. So I'm in Cash. It's a meme coin guys. It has no utility. If you're going to put money into a memecoin, know exactly what you're doing. It's high risk. You can lose all your money. Uh, and then Baby Cash Cat, I'm in, which is the the smaller version of Cash Cat. It's the baby version. And Baby Doge went to a billion market cap last cycle. So, I'm in that again with a DJ bag. I did speak to the team for donation. I spoke to the Baby Cash Cat team and they're happy to donate $2,000. Um, so they're going to donate $2,000. um from Baby Cash Cat. >> Ah, that's fantastic. That's fantastic. >> I already donated, but I'll also uh I'll match their donation as well, so I'll put in $2,000. Um >> Excellent. >> Excellent. So, that is a lot of good alpha and you know what I mean, we got to get out of here. I'm sorry, Wes. I'm taking some of your time, but >> I waffled up. Yeah, we got so so we're talking about memecoins like it's the bull run of 2025 and now here we are just looking at those percentage wise and then also everybody uh just like Wes has done if uh now Wes is a baller so I don't expect thousands tens of thousands of dollars but uh if you are watching and you like what you see and like to donate 20 to 40 bucks we get everybody to that we hit our 200k goal I would be much appreciated there's a link in the description for Wes there's a link in the description for ADLA and you donate in crypto. You can donate PayPal, Venmo, Aayasha, uh even pay by check for Pete's sex, I don't care. And there's all these different Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, and so on and so forth. So, Wes, that is it for today. I don't want to take uh all this time up. You got money to be making. So, I appreciate you coming by again. >> Thanks for having us on, Rob. And uh yeah, big shouts to what you're doing, man. Really, really good work. And let's try and hit that 200k target. I I'll I'll try to round up my guys as well and see if we can get them to donate today. >> I love it. I love it. All right, everybody. See you, Wes. Let's get out of here. >> So, Wes, again, thank you. I'm going to take a little bit of break. I got Nick from Coin Bureau waiting in the wings. I'll be there in one second. Let me mute myself so I'm not cussing like last time.
