Market Overview:

Overall the market remains bullish. The Federal 25 bps rate cut in November has injected liquidity into risk assets like last time and another 25 bps rate cut expected this December could support this upward trend. brings the total rate cuts in 2024 to 100 points.
With Trump winning the election, regulatory pressure on crypto from the SEC is likely to decrease a lot, looking for an extraordinary bull market cycle. This cycle could be different from the typical bull vs bear crypto timelines we’ve seen in the past too.

We may also see an increase in crypto ETFs for blue chip coins like XRP, SOL, AVAX, HBAR and LINK…
The growing strength of memes narrative suggests the possibility of the first ever meme ETF in crypto too.
Also pay attention to the Base ecosystem as Trump is planning to meet Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong.

When Alt Season?  

Alt season could kick off once TOTAL3 breaks through its current level at ATH resistance. If this happens we may see one of the most explosive alt seasons in crypto history.  

$TOTAL: successfully formed and broke through the bullish pattern we mentioned last month, looking for next target at $4.8 Trillion area.
$DXY: it went up unexpectedly last month but still seems to be at resistance at the moment and the pattern is still bearish overall.
$SPX: still reaching new highs as expected and confirmed a major breakout several weeks ago.
