Instead, Dr. Cat identifies a narrow window of \u201cimbalances\u201d across the daily, 2-day, and 3-day Ichimoku indicators\u2014most notably between $102,600 and $106,300\u2014that remain untapped. \u201cThese are pending a touch,\u201d he noted, pointing to the Kijun Sen and Tenkan Sen levels as crucial balance markers.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The weekly Chikou Span (lagging span), a key indicator in Ichimoku theory, currently sits above prior candle closes\u2014a historically bullish condition that suggests Bitcoin is still in a strong uptrend unless it closes below those support levels. Dr. Cat charted these historical supports using the 26-period look-back rule: approximately $103.600 for this week, rising to $108.300 by mid-June before dipping toward $99,000 by late June. \u201cIf CS has managed to keep above candles so well until now on the steepest past slope, it\u2019s very unlikely to go below them,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n
However, the bullish case comes with a short fuse. A pivotal technical event\u2014the bullish TK cross on the weekly chart\u2014is expected on June 9. \u201cBut if [it\u2019s] below ATH, it will be fake as Kijun Sen will be flat,\u201d he warned. In plain terms: unless Bitcoin prints a new all-time high shortly after the TK cross, the signal will be invalidated. On the other hand, a new ATH post-cross would confirm what Dr. Cat calls a \u201csuper clear and bullish signal: very, very unlikely not to be followed immediately by a strong bullish continuation.\u201d<\/p>\n
Notably, he flags a divergence between BTCUSD and BTCEUR, the latter of which is already showing the Chikou Span dipping into candle territory, a neutral-to-bearish signal. \u201cBTCEUR\u2026 looks significantly worse than BTCUSD,\u201d he observed. \u201cThis chart is simply neutral and can go either way: much higher than here, or as low as ~70K EUR.\u201d He attributes some of the current BTCUSD bullishness to USD weakness, adding that mid-June will likely clarify whether this price strength is structurally sound or artificially inflated.<\/p>\n
Zooming out to the monthly chart, Dr. Cat unveiled his most aggressive forecast yet: $270,000 per BTC, based on Ichimoku Price Theory\u2019s \u201c4E model.\u201d While he acknowledged this as a \u201cwild guess,\u201d he argued that the crypto market tends to defy consensus expectations. \u201cPlenty of people seem to be skeptical of this bull run,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd even if they expect it to continue, they bet mostly on shy\/moderate targets. My bet is on the latter [being surpassed].\u201d<\/p>\n
The next two to three weeks will be decisive. A failure to break all-time highs in June\u2014combined with Chikou Span weakness or daily trend breakdowns\u2014could signal a prolonged cool-off into Q4. Until then, all eyes are on the weekly TK cross and the market\u2019s reaction.<\/p>\n
At press time, BTC traded at $108,783.<\/p>\n
