Bitcoin’s Correction Over? QCP Signals Year-End Rally with Massive Positions Building
Bitcoin traders are breathing easier as QCP Capital declares the worst of the recent downturn might be behind us. The crypto markets are showing classic accumulation patterns that historically precede major moves.
The Critical Level Everyone's Watching
All eyes are fixed on that crucial technical threshold that could make or break the year-end rally. Institutional players are positioning themselves aggressively, betting big on Bitcoin's traditional fourth-quarter strength.
Massive Positions Tell the Real Story
While retail investors panic-sold during the dip, smart money built enormous long positions. The options market reveals sophisticated traders are loading up on calls, anticipating a significant move higher before year-end.
Of course, Wall Street analysts who missed Bitcoin's last 200% run are suddenly experts again—just in time to take credit if this prediction hits. The real question isn't whether institutions are buying, but whether they'll sell into the inevitable retail FOMO they're engineering.

At the same time, the stock posted a year-to-date gain of more than 50%. Yet it also fell in the past month due to soft signals from the used-car retailer CarMax (KMX) and broader credit strains. The weak CarMax update led some traders to shift worry toward used auto firms as a group, and the tight credit trend pushed more traders to trim risk in the space. These two points added fresh weight on Carvana even though its own unit Flow and profit lines held firm. Still, Wedbush said the slide may be too sharp for the facts at hand.
Carvana’s Growth Path
Consequently, Devitt noted that Carvana may surpass CarMax in used-unit flow by the fourth quarter of next year. The firm said Carvana could MOVE 187,000 units in that span, while CarMax may move 170,000 units. Then the analyst claimed Carvana may reach 3 million annual retail units by 2033. Devitt sees a unit growth rate of 23% each year over the next stretch.
Lastly, Devitt raised its fourth-quarter revenue view to $5.2 billion. He also projects a full-year 2025 revenue of $19.9 billion.
In summary, the new call added clarity for most analysts. Carvana maintained its growth and kept its key profit lines stable. The next year may show whether the firm can maintain this pace as rates shift and demand trends shift.
Is Carvana a Buy?
On the Street, Carvana boasts a Strong Buy consensus, based on 19 analysts’ ratings. The average CVNA stock price target is $433.22, implying a 31.64% upside from the current price.
