Bitcoin beats S&P 500 in October as $40K BTC price predictions flow in
Bitcoin (BTC) surfed $34,000 at the Oct. 27 Wall Street open as attention turned to BTC price performance against macro assets.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC/USD holding steady, preserving its early-week gains.
The largest cryptocurrency avoided significant volatility as the weekly and monthly closes — a key moment for the October uptrend — drew ever nearer.
“I think Bitcoin will hang around this range for some time,” popular trader Daan Crypto Trades told X subscribers in one of several posts on the day.
Daan nonetheless noted that open interest (OI) had recovered near levels last seen before the sudden uptick, which sent Bitcoin to 17-month highs. As Cointelegraph reported, open interest highs had formed a feature of BTC price “squeezes” during prior weeks.

Elsewhere, on-chain monitoring resource Material Indicators flagged a downside signal on one of its proprietary trading instruments.
With two such daily signals in place, Material Indicators said that only a move to $38,850 would “invalidate” the bearish implication.
“That doesn’t mean we can’t go there before the Monthly candle close,” part of X commentary reasoned.
Trend Precognition continues to show the way.
For me, a move above $34,850 invalidates on the D chart. That doesn’t mean we can’t go there before the Monthly candle close.
