@thescalpingpro
Mags is a pseudonymous Bitcoin chart analyst who posts long-term cycle charts to about 109,000 followers on X as @thescalpingpro. In March and May they pointed to the 200-week moving average, near $59,000–61,000, as the likely bottom zone, and Bitcoin's lowest close of our window came there on 1 July. Their April breakout call to $85,500 went against them. Since September they have expected one more leg down, to about $56,000 by December, and Bitcoin has risen instead so far.
In short. Mags posts as @thescalpingpro. On our sample of six Bitcoin calls from 24 March to 16 September the record is 3 played out, 2 open, 1 went against. Their moving-average bottom zone and their 6 June “bottom is closer” post were right. The April breakout to $85,500 did not come. Their call for a final drop to about $56,000 by December is still open.
The @thescalpingpro account was opened in January 2019 and carries X's paid verification badge. The bio reads “#Bitcoin holder since 2016 | Crypto Trader & Analyst | Patterns / Fractals | Bitcoin 500 day strategy”. CaptainAltcoin quoted the account as “analyst Mags” in September. We found no public record of the person's full name or country, so this page uses they/them.
Their method is long-term cycle work: the 200- and 300-week moving averages, multi-year trendlines, comparisons with the 2018 and 2022 bear markets, and chart “fractals”. Many posts are a chart with one line, like “#Bitcoin - What if this plays out👀”. Those have no level or direction in the text, so we do not grade them.
The fxtwitter feed returned 49 of their own posts from 21 February to 8 October 2026, almost all about Bitcoin. Their “500-Day Bitcoin Strategy” says to buy 500 days before the next halving. In April and July they put that date at 13 January 2027. On 6 September they wrote that the halving was about 585 days away, which put the buy date about 85 days out, on 30 November. On 1 September they wrote that their X account and computer had been hacked in late August, and that a memecoin post from the account was not theirs. That post is not graded here.

Cycle first, then the level. Mags compares this bear market with 2018 and 2022 and names the long-term average where they think it ends. Calls often come as questions, like “#Bitcoin - The final leg down coming?”, followed by the level and why. Their timing is slow: the bottom zone they named in March came three months later.
Cautious. Since 1 September they have expected “The final leg down” before a new bull market, with a possible bottom near the 300-week average around December. On 8 October they called a hold of the ~$74K support “critical”.
Six dated Bitcoin calls from Mags, all from their own X posts, each checked word for word against the post and charted against real price. The tally is 3 played out, 2 open, 1 went against.
“#Bitcoin - The final leg down will catch many people off guard.👀”
Posted at $75,590, Bitcoin's lowest close since the post. It rose to $86,597 (+14.6%) on 22 September and is at $82,851 (+9.6%). The post gives no level or date; their 5 September post puts the bottom near $56,226 around December. No leg down yet. Open.

Posted at $79,671. Bitcoin first dipped to $75,590 (−5.1%) on 16 September, then the relief rally came: $86,597 (+8.7%) on 22 September. It is at $82,851 (+4.0%). The final drop to about $56,226 has not come, and December is still ahead. Open.

Posted at $60,960. Bitcoin fell only a little further, to $58,566 (−3.9%) on 1 July, the lowest close of our window, 25 days later. It then rose to $86,597 (+42.1%) on 22 September and is at $82,851 (+35.9%). The bottom was close. Played out.
𝕏 Post“The bottom is closer than everyone thinks.” — @thescalpingpro on X↗ x.com“• 200 MA sits around $61,400 • 300 MA sits around $54,500 The HTF structure has also turned bearish. If BTC takes another leg down, there is a strong possibility of price testing the 200–300 MA zone again.”
Posted at $76,959. Two days later Mags called the most likely path a loss of $77,000 and a new bottom. Bitcoin first closed below $61,400 on 6 June, at $60,960 (−20.8%), and bottomed inside the zone at $58,566 (−23.9%) on 1 July, well above $54,500. It is at $82,851 (+7.7%). The leg down came and the zone held. Played out.
𝕏 Post“A strong possibility of price testing the 200–300 MA zone again” — @thescalpingpro on X↗ x.com“BTC is once again pushing towards the $77,966 resistance. Ttheir level remains important - a clean reclaim and hold above it opens the move toward $85,500.”
Posted at $75,858. Bitcoin closed above $77,966 on 23 April, at $78,239 (+3.1%), but stalled at $82,018 (+8.1%) on 11 May. It then fell to $58,566 (−22.8%) on 1 July. It passed $85,500 only on 22 September, at $86,597 (+14.2%), after the whole drop. It is at $82,851 (+9.2%). The reclaim came, the move to $85,500 did not. Went against.

It never reached $51,805. It is at $82,851 (+16.7%). The bottom came at their first level, three months later. Played out.
𝕏 Post“#Bitcoin - the bottom is close” — @thescalpingpro on X↗ x.comOutcomes are our read of the stated claim against real price, not Mags's own scoring. Every quote is verbatim from the post linked on its card. Each call is charted at that day's midnight CoinGecko mark; the posts went out between 06:11 and 08:45 UTC. We grade on daily closes. The moving-average levels are Mags's own figures, not ours. The “$1,000 in” line on each card assumes buying on the day, even for bearish calls.
Mags's X posts are free. We found a Telegram channel with an exchange partner link, and two promotional posts for a crypto project. Here is what we found.

On 25 March and 2 April they posted about Ubuntu Tribe's $GIFT gold token, asking followers to “give them a follow” and join its Zealy campaign. Neither post was labelled as paid.

On our sample of six dated Bitcoin calls from 24 March to 16 September 2026: three played out, two are open, one went against. Their moving-average bottom zone and their 6 June “bottom is closer” post were right. Their April breakout call to $85,500 was not.
Partly. In March they named the 200-week average at $59,268 as a key level, and in May the $54,500–61,400 zone. Bitcoin's lowest close of our window was $58,566 on 1 July. On 6 June they wrote “The bottom is closer than everyone thinks.” They now expect a lower bottom, near $56,226, around December.
Their Telegram channel carries a Bybit partner link. In March and April they promoted a gold-token project without a paid label. Their X posts are free.
