Market analyst Ali Charts highlighted a recurring "Sunday pump, Monday dump" pattern for Bitcoin and flagged concurrent TD Sequential sell signals on the four-hour charts of Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana in a six-part thread posted on X on October 4.
Market Impact
Bitcoin was trading at $85,845, up more than 1% on the day, at the time of publication, placing the calendar-based pattern back in focus alongside the technical indicator readings.
The analyst framed the weekly tendency in the opening post, stating that Sunday moves have frequently reversed at the start of the week over the past month. In the second post, Ali Charts elaborated that Sunday rallies were typically followed by Monday pullbacks, while Sunday declines were followed by Monday rebounds, with the same reversal dynamic appearing in both directions.
The initial post had recorded 3,604 views by the time of writing, and the subsequent posts followed within minutes.
The third post introduced a technical warning to the calendar observation. According to the analyst, the TD Sequential indicator flashed a sell signal on Bitcoin’s four-hour chart while the asset traded higher on the day. Ali Charts noted that each of the last four similar signals on that timeframe was followed by a price correction, though the thread did not specify the magnitude of those four prior corrections.
Based on that record, the analyst pointed to another Monday pullback.
The fourth post extended the signal to Ethereum. The asset displayed the same TD Sequential sell signal on its four-hour chart. The analyst cited the two most recent comparable signals as reference points, which were followed by declines of 5.40% and 3.31% respectively. Those historical moves served as the basis for the current setup on Ethereum.
Solana was addressed in the fifth post, which showed that it too had flashed a four-hour TD Sequential sell signal. The analyst identified the last three comparable signals as historical references, noting they preceded corrections of 2.44%, 5.76% and 5.30%. The thread used these specific percentage declines to frame the potential downside risk for Solana.
The final post combined the data points, citing the Sunday pump, the recent run of Monday dumps and the sell signals across BTC, ETH and SOL. Ali Charts said these factors collectively point to a possible pullback at the start of the week. The analyst concluded that the Sunday pump Monday dump setup rests on both calendar behavior and chart signals. The thread ended with that post, and no further posts followed.
