It’s already the futures expiration so there is no use in looking at patterns in my opinion - we will have to see how the CME traders react to last month's huge price fluctuations. Most important: will these close their positions (long or short) or will they extend their contract to next month. Also, and youre the market maker guys: 57K is the point of must hurt for both shorts and longs. So BTC will stay there till expiration; then either a pump or a dump but given they need to sell more futures and want to extend the bull run for as long as possible; they should pump over the weekend. Yes thats fake land but ideal for the market maker to push BTC potentially above 60K already this weekend in order to create an higher entry on Monday when CME opens again. For the bearish scenario; exactly the opposite. Just saying: there is a reason for BTC to be where it is right now. I have had good and bad times in the crypto world. I didn’t think it was possible to make constant win from tradlng till I came across Daniel Wright program for lnvestors/newbies who lack understanding on how tradlng Bit¢σ!и works, to help them stack up more 𝔹𝕚𝕥𝕔𝕠𝕚𝕟, since late last year till date I have made over 19₿TC from 2.6₿TC with Daniel's help.

Just a suggestion Riot: When Pyke uses challenger he should shoot out his Q to pull them into combat, and then E into the fray. I hope yall will continue to use ability effects like when thresh challenges units for example, that's cool.

I keep holding out hope that they've been deceiving us with LB's current design. Like the devs plan on adding more complex cards to the reputation archetype or something. How do you release Blade Dance, Syncopation, and Pyke in the same set, and still end up with a vanilla 5/2 quick attack unit for a trickster champ?
