TA Masterclass: AI Don’t Care: Q4 Setup Looks Explosive

33 min video5 key momentsWatch original
⚡
TL;DR

Fed cut rates 25bps but AI stocks rallied anyway—Q4 setup looks explosive with Bitcoin targeting 90K, Tesla and SpaceX primed for monster quarters, and memory plays like Micron stuck in tight ranges perfect for day trading.

Key Insights

1

10 companies, 45-50% — 10 companies now make up roughly 45-50% of S&P 500 market cap and that concentration is only getting more extreme in the age of AGI.

2

50% vs gold, $6K above MA — Bitcoin has outperformed gold by 50% over the last 202 days and is $6K above its 200-day moving average at $76.3K—very bullish signal.

3

Tight $920-1000 range — Micron trades in a super tight $920-$1,000 range—you could have bought at 920 and sold at 1,000 three to four times in the last four to five weeks.

4

Intel-SK Hynix US facility — SK Hynix is in discussions with Intel to build a US memory facility; Tesla and SpaceX are working with Intel on Tracer and need memory, creating huge demand tailwinds.

5

50% NAV premium risk — Strives asset (Bitcoin treasury company) trades at a 50% NAV premium versus MetaPlanet's previous 6.5x premium—still one of the highest among Bitcoin treasury comps.

6

Q4 killer for Tesla — Q4 is historically killer for Tesla with Optimus in production, Semi launching next week, Cyber Cab ramping, and hints of a Tesla-SpaceX merger at a premium.

Deep Dive

The Fed Cut Fell Flat, AI Stocks Didn't Care

The Fed dropped rates 25 basis points today and the market yawned. Traditional blue-chip stocks like the Dow got hammered—rate-sensitive companies hate hikes—but here's the kicker: AI stocks went green across the board. Tesla, Nvidia, TSM, AMD, Oracle, Marvell, CrowdStrike, even crypto rallied. The creator emphasizes that 25bps is a nothing burger in the age of AGI and exponential growth. Japan and the ECB still have announcements coming this week, but the real story is that the market has already accepted the Fed doesn't control inflation—they can only destroy demand. And that doesn't move the needle on AI.

Bitcoin's Bullish Setup: 90K Is Coming

Bitcoin sits at $76.3K, perched $6K above its 200-day moving average of $70.3K. That's a very bullish sign. Short-term resistance hits at $78.15K (level 4 on the ATR, exact to the dollar). The next critical breakout is $82K—once Bitcoin clears that, it should head back to $90K. ETFs started selling again after five stellar weeks, which is a minor headwind, but the timing indicators are turning down while still in bull mode. The creator expects Bitcoin to hit a new all-time high before the next halving, just like it did before the last one. Eth bounced near its $2,380-$2,390 buy zone and should head back to $2,500-$2,600. Solana is flattish above support but could rally into its annual show in 8 weeks when historically it gets major news releases.

Nvidia, Tesla, SpaceX: Q4 Tailwinds Setting Up

Nvidia had a clear sell signal at $231 last week and turned hard, but now there's a higher low forming around $210. The creator expects accumulation on dips, not selling here. There's no buy signal yet, but resistance at $228-$230 should break in Q4. Tesla is still in a beautiful buy signal from when it dipped to low $300s and is in an upward channel. Q4 is historically killer for Tesla: Optimus allegedly just went into production, Semi launches next week, Cyber Cabs are selling out everywhere, Roadster is coming, and there are hints of a Tesla-SpaceX merger at a premium. SpaceX broke $155 resistance last week on the unlock, dipped to $140, and the creator bought yesterday. Unlock sellers have been taking chips at the $155 level but not lower, suggesting real demand underneath. For pair traders holding both, the two stocks are now locked in step with each other—neither moves without the other anymore, which may kill that pair trade strategy.

Memory Plays Stuck in Tight Ranges—Day Trading Gold

Micron is trapped in a super tight $920-$1,000 range since early August. The stock bounces from support at $920 all the way up to $1,000 and change, then sells back off. The creator did this trade three to four times in the last four to five weeks. No major breakout is coming soon, but he expects Micron to hit $1,500 within a year and crushed Q4 anyway. SK Hynix is discussing a US memory fab with Intel, and both Tesla and SpaceX need memory—either via existing Micron deals or new arrangements. Overall demand for custom chips and TPUs from Google is huge. AMD is stuck in a range-rider box for nearly five months but has tons of demand underneath and will eventually break out. Google hit its $325 buy zone exactly last week and is now facing resistance, but it's a $400 stock waiting to happen.

The Scorecard, Leopold's Portfolio, and the AI Lie

The creator scored his calls from last week: Google at $325 was on the dollar, Nvidia toppy was right on, Bitcoin $80K resistance worked, ETH resistance worked, short-term Nvidia calls worked, Clean Spark plays worked, SpaceX dip happened. What didn't work: copper fell (he said it would), AAB fell then rebounded. He's now reviewing Leopold Ashenbrenner's new portfolio which is all-in on Bitcoin miners, energy plays, and energy infrastructure. Full report coming to Patreon later. On AI: last week was the craziest SCOP AI week in history with massive content over the weekend, but it's all garbage. Frontier models and the games being played make no sense. Don't be fooled—AI isn't going anywhere, it's only accelerating.

Takeaways

  • ✓Don't chase Intel on news alone—wait for a break above the $87-$88 kill zone where it's been rejected 15 times in three months; if it clears that, it could run to all-time highs in Q4.
  • ✓Micron day traders: buy at $920, sell at $1,000, repeat—this cycle has worked three to four times in five weeks, but don't hold expecting a breakout.
  • ✓Avoid Strive's asset (Bitcoin treasury) at a 50% NAV premium; compare to Microstrategy at 20% discount and MetaPlanet's blown-up 6.5x premium to see the risk.
  • ✓Q4 is historically strong for markets and AI stocks specifically—even after the Fed cut today, AI stocks ripped while rate-sensitive names got crushed, setting up an explosive quarter ahead.

Key moments

0:54Fed Rate Cut Was Nothing

“25 basis points is a nothing burger. We have more stuff coming from Japan later this week and maybe European Central Bank and Bank of England. But again, in the age of AGI and exponentiology, 25 basis points doesn't matter a damn.”

5:49Bitcoin $6K Above 200-Day MA

“The 200 day moving average is 70,300 right now. The Bitcoin price is 76,300. So we're like six grand above the 200 day moving average. And that's a very bullish sign.”

11:01Micron's Tight Trading Range

“It doesn't like going below 920 bucks. Every time it hits this level, it goes back up to a thousand and change and then it sells back off. You could have done that three or four times in the last four or five weeks.”

23:36Q4 Always Strong for Tesla

“Q4 is killer for Tesla. Always nothing but tailwinds. Optimus allegedly went into production. Semi going into production next week. We have Cyber Cab running around and building tons of those and cars are sold out all over the place.”

32:3610 Companies Dominate Market

“Remember, I think 10 companies make up nearly 50% of the S&P 500 market cap. Definitely 45%. And that's only going to get more extreme as well in the age of AGI.”
