Bitcoin2026-09-29 13:33:49Peter Brandt raises Bitcoin cycle-top target to $300,000-$600,000 by end of 2029Veteran trader Peter Brandt said Bitcoin has likely already put in its low for the current cycle and entered a new bull-market phase. He raised his cycle-top target from an earlier $250,000-$300,000 range to $300,000-$600,000 by the end of 2029, adding that a move to $500,000 is "very possible." At the same time, Brandt warned that Bitcoin could pull back to $65,000-$66,000 in early October to flush out late buyers chasing the rally. He also reiterated his skepticism toward XRP as an investment, calling it a "fool coin" and arguing that payment utility and Ripple's banking partnerships do not automatically translate into price appreciation.210
Bitcoin2026-09-29 13:33:00Peter Brandt Raises Bitcoin Cycle Top Target to as High as $600,000Veteran trader Peter Brandt said Bitcoin has likely already put in its low for the current market cycle and entered a new bull phase. He raised his cycle-top forecast from an earlier range of $250,000 to $300,000 to a new target of $300,000 to $600,000 by the end of 2029, adding that a move to $500,000 is "very possible." At the same time, Brandt warned that Bitcoin could pull back to $65,000-$66,000 in early October in what he described as a move to flush out momentum buyers who chased the rally. Brandt also expressed skepticism about XRP as an investment, calling it a "fool coin." He said XRP’s payment use case and Ripple’s banking partnerships do not necessarily mean the token’s value will rise. The remarks were cited by Cointelegraph and carried by Odaily.240
XRP2026-09-21 22:06:39Peter Brandt says XRP could break the $5 level in a bull marketVeteran trader Peter Brandt said in a social media post that XRP could move above the $5 psychological level. His comment came as optimism around the start of a new bull market picked up again. The same update noted that Bitcoin had climbed to $87,000, marking an eight-month high. The report was cited by Techub News and referenced CoinGape.330
Bitcoin2026-08-21 13:51:17Peter Brandt Says Bitcoin Has Formed a Valid Bottom, Says He Bought the BreakoutPeter Brandt said Bitcoin had originally been a bearish inverse head-and-shoulders pattern within a broader downtrend, but recent gains have turned the setup into a valid bottom. He added that he bought the breakout, “for better or worse.” Brandt also said on July 20 that he expects the current Bitcoin cycle to bottom on Oct. 4, 2026, and that Bitcoin may outperform AI stocks over the next two to three years.1030
Bitcoin2026-08-20 15:57:12Peter Brandt turns bullish on Bitcoin and says he bought after rare chart shiftVeteran trader Peter Brandt has shifted from a bearish stance on Bitcoin to a bullish one after spotting what was described as a rare chart pattern, according to Techub News, citing U.Today. The report said Brandt has already bought Bitcoin following that change in view. Bitcoin was quoted at $72,335 at the time of the update. Brandt is widely known for his classic chart-based market analysis, and the move drew attention because it marked a clear reversal in his earlier positioning. The brief did not provide additional details on the pattern itself, the size of the purchase, or the timing of the trade beyond noting that his outlook had changed and that he had bought BTC.1020
Bitcoin2026-08-11 04:01:23Bitcoin bottom in October? Analysts and a viral 4chan post point to the same windowTen months after Bitcoin topped in October 2025, debate around the four-year cycle has picked up again, with traders asking when the market may find a bottom and when capital can be deployed with less urgency. BlockBeats compiled a range of market views, and several of them cluster around the second half of the year, especially October. Veteran trader and chart analyst Peter Brandt said in late July that he expects Bitcoin to bottom on Oct. 4, 2026. He also argued that buying Bitcoin at current levels could deliver better returns over the next two to three years than investing in AI stocks, and projected the next cycle top in 2029 at $250,000 to $300,000. B.TOP founder Jiang Zhuoer, using data from the previous three Bitcoin halving cycles, predicted a bear-market floor of $44,016 on Oct. 31. Killa placed the bottoming window between July and September, while CryptoD said the broader crypto market is gradually nearing a bottom and that Q3 and Q4 may be the last period to build positions calmly before the next bull run. The October-bottom thesis also overlaps with a widely shared anonymous 4chan post from Dec. 12, 2023, which extrapolated prior cycle intervals. Still, the report noted that institutional capital may have altered Bitcoin’s cycle structure, making any straight-line comparison less reliable.1890
gold2026-08-07 11:18:40Peter Brandt's 'Maybe' Gold Chart Hints at Downside Risk Days After Bullish CallVeteran trader and technical analyst Peter Brandt published a daily gold futures chart on Aug. 7 showing gold in a long-term descending trend channel. Overlaid with a tombstone image and captioned 'Maybe,' the chart hints at further downside risk or the potential end of the bull market. The post lands just two days after Brandt voiced a short-term bullish view on gold. In that earlier post, he called for a rebound toward the $4,517–$4,830 range. A market veteran with five decades of trading experience, Brandt is known for classical technical analysis and accurately predicted the 2018 bitcoin crash. The tombstone visual and the one-word caption stand in clear contrast to his earlier upside target, and the 'Maybe' wording leaves room for interpretation. How the bearish long-term chart and the near-term rebound target fit together is not addressed in the post. BlockBeats first reported the chart post and its caption on Aug. 7.1770
