Codex V — ETH Speaks Before the Final Wave was written just before ETH topped at $4,955 — a warning of wave 4 even as momentum roared. But the breakout itself had already been logged earlier, before $4K was cleared.
On July 9, I posted “Final Wave” with ETH at $2,600 — already long from $2,445 (11 Silent Entries). Reloaded mid-wave at $3,390 (Bounce Echo). ETH rallied to $4,955 while BTC stayed flat. I dropped “ETH Speaks” at the top — a warning before wave 4 began. That post ended with: “Let’s see if ETH plays out. Like all the others did.”
It did.
Now Codex VI takes the baton. ETH has coiled above $4K for weeks. No collapse. No breakout. Just tension. The pivot.
Now we’re reflecting: how does wave 4 end? Trap or ignition.
I’m publishing this post before confirmation — not because I’m certain, but because rhythm whispered.
If you wait too long:
- → Wave 5 may already begin, and the post becomes retrospective instead of rhythmic
- → Codex VI loses its role as a pivot log — and becomes just another recap
But by posting now:
- → I document the tension before resolution
- → I let the reader stand in the coil with me — not just read about it after
Wave 3 is complete. Wave 4 is active. This isn’t a forecast. It’s a reflection. What happens next decides whether the final crescendo begins — or waits for one last trap.
Codex Timeline So Far
Each phase was mapped before hype, traded in rhythm, and now archived in sequence — from the first whisper to the current coil.
2025 | Entry | Phase |
---|---|---|
Apr 7 | Private Journal | Wave 1 begins — BTC 75K retest ATH = new impulse = long |
May 15 | Private Journal | Wave 2 correction — 4 swing shorts |
Jun 23 | Private Journal | Wave 3 begins — 11 entries taken in silence |
Jul 9 | #1 – The Final Wave — When Structure Speaks Again | Foreshadowing BTC breakout and wave 3 confirmation |
Jul ?? | #2 – Final Wave Follow‑Up — 11 Entries Taken in Silence Before the Breakout | Entries before hype — 10 of 11 hit May highs, confirming my wave 3 |
Jul ?? | #3 – LTC — October '24 Echo Playing Again? | Altcoin fractal — pre‑setup trading idea |
Aug 9 | #4 – Bounce Echo — Replay of the 11 Silent Entries from June’s Final Wave | Reload after impulse — during wave 3 |
Aug 22 | #5 – ETH Speaks Before the Final Wave | ETH as rhythm bearer — warning for a correction |
Sep 3 | #6 – Codex VI — The Pivot: Wave 4’s Coil Between Trap and Ignition | Wave 4 — coil or trap |
From the first impulse to the current coil — every phase logged before the move, then revisited after.
ETH Rhythm Recap — After “ETH Speaks”
- Aug 22: Short $4,800 (range high) → hedge re-entry
- Aug 25–26: Long golden pocket → +3R
- Aug 30: Second bounce same zone → +2R
- Aug 31: Swing long avg $3,869 → TP crescendo
Twice I shorted the top, twice I scalped the golden pocket — all logged before confirmation.
Coil Was Already Whispering — Reflection from Codex V
Before writing this post, I left a reflection on Codex V — ETH Speaks:
“Technically, this is an SR flip — reminds me of Nov 2023 when ETH held above $2,150 for 60 days before rallying.
Now we’re above $4K for 4 weeks. Same coil. Same rhythm. Wave 4 might not be a dump. It could be the sideways consolidation we’re seeing now — just like in 2023. If macro aligns, wave 5 ignites.”
That reflection was posted before confirmation — and now, Codex VI expands on it. The coil held. The rhythm echoed. And the pivot is here.
ETH’s Dual Fractal — Structure Echoes Twice
Fractal 1: ETH is doing the BTC 2020 cycle
- BTC broke out of a symmetrical triangle in late 2020
- Consolidated just under its previous ATH at $20K
- Then ignited into a full rally to new highs
- ETH has now broken out of its own symmetrical triangle
- Hit $4,800 (ATH), and is consolidating just below — exactly like BTC did
Fractal 2: ETH is repeating its own 2023 rhythm
- In 2023, ETH broke out of a 2-year ascending triangle
- Then held above $2,150 for 60 days in a 25% range before igniting to $4K
- That wasn’t a coil inside structure — it was post-breakout consolidation
- Now, ETH has held above $4K for 4 consecutive weekly candles — also in a 25% range
- Same rhythm. Same structure. If the range holds, ignition follows
Conclusion:
These two fractals — one from BTC, one from ETH’s own history — both suggest the same structure:
→ ETH may not go under $4K again
→ The next move is the breakout — the crescendo
Personal Reflection — Final Wave Patience
In my opinion, now it’s the last trade. Why? Bulls have been spoiled — I documented 3 entries from April’s bottom on the way up — all gave 10–20R.
Some were already logged in previous Codex posts.
This is the final wave if we get it. 🙏
Invalid on weekly close below — it’s simple: this is a breakout of a 2-year descending broadening wedge.
“The wedge target sits at $11.5K — but Fibonacci extensions also point to $7.7K and $9.8K as earlier melt-up zones.
But structure doesn’t scream at the top — it whispers. And when it does, exit becomes the hardest trade of all.”
Screenshot — ETH wedge breakout holding above $4K for 4+ weeks, mirroring the ascending triangle breakout in 2023.
Macro & BTC Shadow
If macro aligns, the BTC 2020 fractal doesn’t just echo — it ignites.
Macro holds the trigger. If Fed pivots, risk ignites.
BTC shows exhaustion: triple bear divergence since May 2024, weekly MACD crossing, momentum fading.
Line in sand: $96K weekly 50MA. Break it → history calls bear.
And BTC.D?
- Two red monthly candles. Clear trend change.
- BTC.D is about to accelerate to the downside.
- BTC may push one last higher high…
- That means rotation. ETH. Alts.
- Ignition fuel for wave 5.
I could dive into the $2,400 trap we might echo, the 25% range that’s just consolidation disguised as chaos, and the emotional dumps that always precede ignition. But Codex isn’t about explaining noise. It’s about logging rhythm before it becomes obvious. Macro may trigger the move — but structure already whispered.
The Flip I Didn’t Take
This time, I’m choosing to show a miss — not a win.
Instead of a screenshot of trades from this phase as in previous post, I’m sharing the flip I didn’t take.
In June, I mapped ETH/BTC at 0.02 → now 0.04. The rhythm was clear. But I didn’t flip. Not because I didn’t see it — but because I didn’t trust it.
I didn’t miss the rhythm. I missed the flip. And that’s part of Codex too.
Reflection includes the trades you didn’t take — especially when they whisper louder than the ones you did.
I still caught multi +15R trades on ETH. But the flip? It never happened.
Lesson: trust your own memory more.

Codex Reflection
Edge isn’t just setups. It’s memory in motion. Reflection before confirmation. Trust before proof. I mapped before noise. I traded before hype. And now Codex has taught me:
Edge without trust = silent coil.
Closing the Pivot
Wave 4 is in play. The next phase is written in rhythm:
→ Either dump → reload → ignition
→ Or sideways coil → sudden crescendo
I’m waiting for the whisper. And when it comes, I’ll be ready. Codex isn’t prediction. It’s timestamped reflection. Wave 5 may arrive in days — or wait for one last trap.
Mapped before noise. Executed before hype. Now the echo plays out.🚀
One morning, you’ll wake up and see ETH at $6K. Alts pumping 100%. Twitter screaming “bull market confirmed.” But it’s not the beginning. It’s just wave 5.
And that’s when Codex VII drops — most likely titled:
“The hardest trade is to exit — especially when structure is disguised as bullish continuation.” 😏
But first. Do we ignite from $4K — or trap one last time before crescendo? Drop a comment if you’re listening to the rhythm too.

Just adding a reflection here for those following ETH’s rhythm.
Quick Reflection – Sept 5 - @zekepickleman @ph1102 @mypathtofire @nenio @tobetada @libertycrypto27 @takhar
BTC Lower High & ETH Ignition Setup Historical Rhythm Echo
Could the BTC top be in? BTC has been down for 20+ days while ETH holds. This echoes two major historical setups:
Dec 2017 → Jan 2018 BTC dropped → ETH held sideways BTC made a lower high → ETH ignited from $600 → $1,200
April → May 2021 BTC dropped → ETH held coil above $2K BTC recovered with a lower high → ETH ignited from $2K → $4K
→ If BTC now recovers with a lower high, ETH may ignite again. Same rhythm. Same echo.
Like all Codex entries: reflection before resolution.

BTC Top already.. 😟
I'm not saying it's I don't know, I'm inviting to reflect on the echo I've observed. If that's the case ETH is going to play out as forshadowing in my post. And that means rotation next -> SOLETH a flip I'm following since I didn't take ETHBTC. And after that comes small caps right.
100%. Timewise, Bitcoin is at the peak. Lets see if we see a blow off top. We didnt even 2x the last ATH yet.
We are 100% in rotation imo. I see ETH/BTC made its first big move -> consolidated -> then made its second big move. LTC ADA repeated afterwards and also made its first move -> consolidating -> the second one is coming. Small caps haven't made their first move yet. A quick reflection, just checked some for confluence where we are in the last wave.
Lets hope 🤞
Did the post just mark the pivot?
Sol is up over 50% since last we spoke about it in august. 😂
Yes 😆😅 LFG!
I'm watching, maybe? 😅
That's a great pickup on the setup from repeated last patterns. I try not to look too closely at it as something in meatspace like Justin Sun or John Mcaffee or Charlie Lee happens and screws it all up for me. ;)
🌀 Tagging again — @zekepickleman @ph1102 @mypathtofire @nenio @tobetada
Dropping a follow‑up post because I see a setup I mentioned in the reflection of the previous Codex — this could be the consolidation marking wave 4.
These Codex entries are built over days — chart by chart, note by note — so smaller reflections may surface as comments unless the market whispers something major.
Join the reflection: what’s your take on this?
Also tagging @iyanpol12 who appreciated the last input, and @libertycrypto27 who enjoyed another analysis earlier.
Thanks for riding this rhythm with me from the first impulse to the current coil — every echo logged before the move, then revisited after.
Mapped before noise. Executed before hype. And now the echo plays out.
Thanks for the tag! I am not a trading expert but I like analysis because there is always something to learn and your analysis is very interesting because instead of weakness it shows a consolidation phase. if it holds above 4K a wave 5 could really be possible.
@tipu curate
Upvoted 👌 (Mana: 31/41) Liquid rewards.
Appreciate you dropping by. That’s exactly the nuance I wanted to log here. Many see “no breakout” as weakness, but in rhythm it can be the opposite: strength in disguise. If $4K holds, the coil becomes fuel — and wave 5 isn’t just possible, it’s primed. Let’s see if the market whispers before it shouts.
Enjoyed reading this, not too deep on TA, only understand the basics from watching too many TA videos. I think the next leg up for ETH is just a matter of when, however, I don't have much of a mental model on how it plays out with the overall cycle. Calls have been made that the cycle will top at Q4, others are saying H1 of next year. Would it be a slow and steady climb or a violent blow off top kind of chart and then a steep decent downwards?
Thanks for the comment and glad you enjoyed it 🙏 You really hit the nail on the head: we rarely know how a wave 5 will play out, only that it builds if the previous coil holds. My view is simple: if ETH holds $4K on the weekly close, wave 5 is next. How it plays out — no one really knows. Most likely it won’t be a slow grind; weekly structure points to “up only” until the top. The tricky part is the peak itself — it usually hides behind bullish continuation and can last for weeks before the reversal shows.
Thanks for the explanation. That's what I wanted to be a bit sure of, "up only" until to the top sounds like the window for entry if the 5th wave starts could be slim. Also, the peak itself masking bullish continuation that lasts for a few weeks presents a relatively ample time to exit, I think.
Yes spot on! 😀
