BlockBeats reported on Oct. 2 that trader Killa said Bitcoin’s trend has already shifted in a clear way, even as the market remains at what he described as the peak of “bull market skepticism.” In his view, that backdrop does not invalidate the uptrend. Instead, he pointed to how Bitcoin behaved during the 2023 bull market, when buying retests and brief breaks below an “established low” often worked well.
Killa said that in 2023, the deepest move below such a confirmed support level was only 8%, while in some cases Bitcoin slipped just 4% to 5% below the level before rebounding quickly. He now identifies 82.5K, or about $82,500, as Bitcoin’s current “established low,” and said historical behavior suggests any downside deviation from that level may be limited.
The report also noted that Killa is a BTC-focused quantitative trader with more than 200,000 followers on X. It added that he had called the top of the current bull cycle in May 2025, shorted Bitcoin at $74,688 in mid-April, and then turned bullish during the broad market sell-off on June 5.
Trader Killa said Bitcoin’s trend has already changed in a clear way, according to a BlockBeats report published on Oct. 2, though he added that the market is still at the height of what he called “bull market skepticism.”
He said that during the 2023 bull market, buying each sweep below an “established low” — a level the market had already confirmed and shown as support — would have worked well. In those cases, the deepest break below that low was only 8%. In some instances, Bitcoin moved just 4% to 5% below the level before quickly rallying again.
Killa said Bitcoin’s current “established low” is 82.5K, or about $82,500. Based on historical performance, he expects the downside deviation below that level to remain small, and said any pullback should be treated as a buying opportunity.
