I grew up with nothing. Success felt impossible until I found crypto in 2018. I made every mistake chasing hype and holding coins to nearly zero. I then found technical analysis and it changed everything. My perspective on this [music] industry and my success within it. Now, I'm passing that knowledge on to you. Welcome to Crypto Revealed, the true story. Hey folks, Nick Valdez here, chief crypto strategist at Verified Investing and we have all coins breaking out, Bitcoin pumping, and we're going to reveal why exactly is crypto surging today and what are the key levels that we have identified to see where you know, potentially this rally could come to an end and we're going to talk about the 200-day moving average, we're going to talk about what's happening in the White House, and of course, we're going to cover your favorite altcoins, folks. And thank you for joining everybody. Go ahead and smash that like button as we get ready to talk about what exactly is happening. So, we're going to lead off with our first segment, who said what? Well, in this case, it is Donald Trump saying welcome everybody. Well, White House holds a meeting with crypto executives. So, Trump is meeting on the left side of the screen, you can see here the CFTC chair, Mike Seelak, also the SEC head and his crypto advisor, Patrick Witt. They're meeting with the top people. Look below, Coinbase executive Brian Armstrong, he's going to be there. Kraken executive, Ripple, the CEO Brad Garlinghouse is going to be there. Sergey from Chainlink, A16Z, Nasdaq, ICE, all of these key influential people in the in the media, in the crypto space, they are meeting with the White House officials. Plus, we have the Fed with some severe buybacks that's going to be happening with let's just say some of the major assets. And so, let's go ahead and jump right into the Bitcoin charts cuz Bitcoin having a huge pump, so we got to talk about these levels. And I appreciate all the comments, everybody, down below. And I'm going to be reading the comments, might throw in a couple extra altcoins, cuz if you have an altcoin, basically, folks, is probably pumping today. And we're talking about all of the major. So, let's jump into the charts here. Bitcoin with a nice little move here, but you see here, Terraflow and the 200-day moving average. I don't know why I made it so small. Let me get it a little bit bigger there. So, look at that Bitcoin, that that descending parallel channel. We told you, descending parallel channels usually, typically, are going to be bullish. Now, if this was sideways, all right, now you're talking about a bear flag. And it can go as high as a 45° angle, you still have a bear flag set up there, but when it is moving to the downside, that is going to be typically bullish. Now, uh right here, you can see Terraflow. What is the Terraflow? That's going to be this area right here, right around $75,000. But I don't know if we're going to be heading there anytime soon, folks, cuz what we saw Bitcoin do with the 200-day moving average, it did not like its activity. As it started to get a little bit closer, folks, this is a kind of ugly. You don't want to see this. The 200-day moving average, right here, you can see Bitcoin beat against this just a few months back, and then had a sharp correction. Look what happened. Now, I took the screenshot earlier in the day. Bitcoin hit against the 200-day moving average, and then would end up rejecting. So, the bulls need to take control if we're going to start being bullish on this one, folks, because, you know, if it can't basically take over the 200-day moving average, well, that's not going to be good for crypto, folks. Now, I did look at what was happening with uh the ETFs. ETFs are also bullish today. You can see BlackRock leading the way, IBIT, Fidelity, ARK, Bitwise. Five out of the seven large ones did have some inflows. BlackRock leading the way, so we're about some major inflows for Bitcoin ETFs here. BlackRock is leading with $143 million. Now, yesterday we had inflows around 300 million today yesterday sorry 2 days ago yesterday $200 worth of inflows. That's about a half a billion dollars of Bitcoin ETFs that the clients are buying. And so you see these large hedge funds buying massive amounts of Bitcoin and they have to buy spot Bitcoin when these investors are buying Bitcoin ETFs. They don't just, you know, sell a bunch of IBIT shares and then not buy any Bitcoin. So, that was going to be some major buying pressure. And that's also going to translate into the altcoins. So, let's talk about the altcoins here and I'm looking at your comments. XLM, we're going to look at XLM. Don't you worry, folks. We're going to look at XRP. We're going to look at all all of the majors out here, folks. So, if you got it, we're probably going to be covering it, folks. So, what is happening in the crypto space here with Ethereum? Well, Ethereum, I wanted to show you this descending trend line. This is November of 2025. And, you know, we kind of hit the wick right there essentially, you know, establishing a nice little trend area here. And look at this, we hit the tops here. We hit the tops there. Look at all these wicks as it gets rejected. You probably see where this is going to be going, folks. Let's keep moving it. Let's keep moving it. Look at that. Ethereum rejecting right before it hit this level. This is going to be a key place for Ethereum to essentially it needs to overcome if we are going to see some bullish action in Ethereum because ETH can also lead into some of the major altcoins. ETH can kind of pull up the rest of the altcoins just like Bitcoin pulls up the altcoins. ETH can pull up the altcoins. Now, let's go over to the next one here. Next one we're looking at is Solana. Solana also looking pretty interesting when you look at this April low. This is the Terra flow. And if we go straight across, it's going to be right around $95, $94.88. And so, Solana, you know, it did wick as high as 83. We still got some pretty key targets, but right now, folks, I'm mostly watching this pivot high. It needs a needs a take over this pivot high, and then we can start looking a little bit more bullish, folks. All right. Now, let's look at XRP. Smash the like button if you hold some XRP. And I'm going to throw it out to you, the live chat here. What is this candle called? Do you know what this candle is called? Let me do my TA, then I'll reveal it at the end, and I'll tell you what this candle means. This is a very important candle for XRP. That's why you saw us maybe, you know, such a major move here. But look at this horizontal pivot. We have this area right here, but it also goes back to this area right here. This is June of 2026, the June of this year. You can see a lot of activity in this range, and you can see the most recent downturn capped out at that spot, and then, you know, basically nuked the rally. All right. Now, talked about this uh descending trend line when we were talking about it was a dollar 13. Now, as we're heading a little bit lower, it's around a dollar 12. If we can pass this area, this, folks, might be your next stop for XRP. Now, did anybody name it? It's not the king donga candle. Not a Not a This one, I mean, boy, you want to talk about bullish engulfing? No, this candle right here is a bottoming tail. This is a bottoming tail candle. So, if it was flipped upside down, and it was at the top of a rally, hammer candle. We also We also accept hammer candles as well. Bottoming tails, hammer candles, these are reverse indicators. And so, I'm not going to say this led into it. I think it was more of the fundamentals that ended up pumping crypto, ended up pumping this XRP chart. But this is a bullish candle, and you know, seeing this major move, you know, just kind of gives me a little bit more conviction. What else do we have for the major movers, folks? Well, probably one that a lot of you folks have uh know, have a little bit of a history with. That's Cardano. Now, I have the RSI pulled up cuz we're looking at the 4-hour 4-hour RSI. So, on the top left, you can see the candles. And I'm going to give a quick shout-out to BitBase, by the way. Uh we are going to at the end of the stream reveal my trades. Uh we have a QR code down below if you want to check out this exchange, folks. It's the one we just been slicing and dicing the markets, folks. Give me a Ginsu knife. All right, put me in put me in a infomercial, folks. Cuz I I'm You You remember when they did the scissors and they cut the pennies? That's what I'm doing to the charts. That's what I'm doing to the markets, folks. So, a big shout-out to BitBase. Let's get back to the charts here. So, this is Cardano. Now, on the daily, this looks a little bit better here. It's just a parallel channel that is ascending. Now, remember, descending parallels are bullish. So, an ascending parallel, meaning a parallel that's moving up, it is going to be a little bit bearish. So, a little bit of a scary chart there. But, on the RSI, we have a nice bull div. You can see the the higher low while the price was making a lower low. And if you look when we descended, we also put in lower highs while the price was putting in higher highs. So, this was uh basically some bearish bearish signs. This is bullish signs. And I'm not saying it's going to take us to the top of the parallel, but if it does, you're looking at over a 20 cent Cardano. And also, we had another, you know, just nice bullish pressure right here as we have uh the descending RSI while the price was uh heading much, much lower. Now, this one isn't uh as bullish, but when you see a big disparity, they can call that hidden divergence. Not really a a technically a bullish divergence, but you can play the hidden divergences as well. Not nearly as uh accurate, folks. I will I will go ahead and give you that. Hidden divergence isn't super accurate, but it is something maybe pay attention to. Now, I read the comment sections, everybody. I I all the comments, you know, I've been I've been making videos here for a little over a month now probably and I try to respond to every single one of you. In fact, I think I do respond to every single one of you. There's an altcoin that you guys have been clamoring for, okay? You've been shouting it from the rooftops. In fact, I think I saw y'all, you know, outside my window talking about it. XLM XLM Fine, all right, look. Smash the like button if you've been waiting on me to cover some XLM. We do have an XLM chart as well and I have a bullish sign for you that hey, maybe we eventually might see a nice little rally here. We have a falling wedge. Now, falling wedges are going to be a bullish sign, folks. Now, doesn't mean every single time, okay? This is just a game of probabilities, but the probabilities do favor a move to the upside when we're talking about a falling wedge. Now, I want to show you this. So, we have the bottom bottom trend line right here. Nice little area of support. But, look at the top trend line as well. So, we're just going to come in from the candle body to the candle body. Move it. Move it. We rejected. We rejected. That's fine though. That's fine cuz what we're doing here is knocking on the door. Now, we knocked on the door a whole bunch of times down here. This was beyond knocking. This is like when the dog starts scratching at the door cuz they have to go outside or the the cat scratch cat scratch fever there, but I'm liking this falling wedge, folks. And I mean, this could go on for a long time. I don't know. I mean, I I wouldn't say this is going to go into September, potentially October, but uh let's just actually draw it out. And now at this point, I'm curious, folks. Curious like the cat. The cat that gives you a cat scratch fever. Uh September 14th. September 14th. Woo, that was that was 3 days away from that terrible tragedy. We wouldn't want it to happen there. All right. Now, other altcoins, Chainlink. Do we have some Link Marines? I said "Hoorah." One day, they're like, "It's Oorah." Is that right? I'm assuming it's right. I'm assuming you guys know more than me. Uh Louie, yeah, we definitely got some XLM fans in here. Uh Solana looking like it wants to break out. A lot of all coins, they're just looking really good, folks. Now, found something interesting on the Chainlink chart. It's going to be a inverse head and shoulders. So, this inverse head and shoulders looking pretty juicy, everybody. Now, uh let's go ahead and zoom out. So, we're on the one-day chart. I wanted to draw this for you folks so we could do it live here. Now, you could do it a couple different ways. There's a head and shoulder pattern right here. You can also just draw it. Well, we'll use this pattern. Why not? So, you make your shoulder. You have your head. You want to make sure All right. And so, you could do it this way then that way. I I like this way right here. And then, boom, we have our head and shoulders pattern. Let's go ahead and complete it. So, this is going to give us a target. And the way you measure measure inverse head and shoulders here, is you go from the neckline to the crown of the head and move it, and that will give you your potential breakout target. So, Chainlink got close to, you know, a nice little breakout for this head and shoulders pattern, but not quite. But, this area is going to be right around 10 23. And I love that we were talking about a $10 Chainlink yesterday. And look at that, we hit about 10 1006 1006 right there. And that's really, really close to this pivot level right here. So, we're going to get our horizontal line, put it right there at the top of here, and boom, we ended up hitting that target exactly. So, that's what we're seeing with the Chainlink chart. Also, we got some more here, folks. Uniswap. I had a Uniswap trade. This maniac shorted the mar I was up early, look, folks. I'm up I'm up with the roosters, okay? There goes the rooster. That's what they say, all right? They Maybe they're talking about the song, maybe they're talking about me. But, I was up and I actually nailed a short. I'm going to reveal my trades a little bit later, but we closed everything when we saw bullishness in the charts. I thought about trying to do the breakout trade on the longs, but you know, folks, I got to you know, we're we're prepping a new morning show. I wasn't able to attack the charts like I wanted to, folks. We end up our our practice show went a little bit longer, but let's talk about the Uniswap chart here. Ended up hitting this nice little key area of resistance. And so now I'm watching this descending trend line as a potential area for Uniswap here. Now we can go to the 15-minute chart. Ended up shorting this area right here. So we blasted past some liquidations. The RSI was looking a little bit bearish, so we got in, we got out, and we left that trade in profit, folks. You never go broke taking a profit. Now, I said I'm going to reveal my trade. Smash the like button if you want me to go ahead and just, you know, folks, it's crypto revealed. I traded Velvet. Velvet is probably one of the crazier charts here. In fact, I'll pull up the Velvet daily chart. I don't don't trade this one, folks. I'm I'm probably going to just stay away from this one. I have a little bit of that dog in me, you know what I mean? Now he's talking about cats, he's talking about dogs. What's wrong with this guy? I got the dog in me, folks. I I had to trade some Velvet. I left licking my wounds. I left about break even. Look at the daily chart on this thing. This This is what, you know, I warned you on this one on the ProCharts. This is the latest Binance chain scam pump pump and dump here. That's It's a 20x. I shouldn't laugh at that cuz I, you know, don't I'm not trying to incentivize you guys to trade this. In fact, I I highly recommend that you don't. That's an 80% fall in 3 days. I had to trade it, folks. I had to trade it. I left at break even. Basically $7, you know, a little $7 loss there. I was sweating like the Key & Peele meme. That one was scary, but you know, basically once we were at break even, we got out of there, okay? That that I I'd lower the leverage on that one, too. That That's just a crazy one, but we did get a a of in. We traded Uniswap. Uh we had a nice little short. Uh we also shorted zero. And we longed a stock with the live day trading room, folks. We longed SOXL. So, we end up uh you know, just still just stacking in the wins, stacking in the wins. Look how small that loss is, folks. So, we're just uh still crushing the trades here. I can go to second page just so you don't think I'm like, you know, hiding trades here. We had one little small loss. Again, nothing. All these wins, folks. So, we're we're basically killing the markets here on the base. We have a nice little bonus for everybody. If you want to check this out, folks. And we do have a little uh again, a little QR code. want to check it out. Like me and the technical director, we're fighting fighting over showing it here. Verified Investing's exclusive up to 20,000 USDT in bonuses. Now, only the whales are going to get that type of bonus. That That bonus isn't going to go for everybody, folks. So, don't don't assume that, you know, oh, I do one trade and I make 20 20k. It isn't going to work that way. But, folks, if you do want to talk about uh you know, some nice little bonuses, there you go. Remember, I gave you a trade yesterday. I gave you a trade. I gave you a hype trade. Talked about, all right, look, you know, let's not talk about the trades in the past. Let's talk about the trades in the future, okay? I put on my goggles. I was seeing the future. It was like a R.L. Stine Goosebumps novel or something, folks. And this was the trade setup that I gave you. How did it do? Did you know, did did I lead you astray? No, I led you to the promised land, folks. Uh this was Remember, we're we're going live right around 1:30. And so, you know, I saw this. Uh we're probably 10 15 minutes into the stream. I was like, I I still like the RSI. We have that bull div right there. Checked some of the liquidations. And yeah, that was a nice little trade. What's the next one? What would I be watching for the next trade? Uh you know, may Oh my gosh. It's running away. It's running away. It's running away. Uh these are 5-minute candles. So, I was going to give you this one, folks. But, I'm still waiting for a bull div on the RSI. And so, that would mean the RSI bounces higher while this price goes lower, maybe ends up testing this trend line. And that that could be a potential trade setup. I'm I'm kicking myself. Look at that. I I predicted the future yet again, folks. I'm I'm I'm Nick- Nickstradamus. Well, careful with that one, folks. Uh but again, thank you for joining. I appreciate you guys hanging out to the end. Put in the comments what altcoins you want me to Don't buy and hold Velvet. Okay, don't buy and hold it.
