The trend is still down, and I expect a move down to the $5000 level potentially as low as $4800
Bitcoin is currently correcting its move from $8400 down to $5800 with a move up (corrective waves can go in either direction - because there was a market reaction and impulsive sell off that occurred, this corrective move is going up)
Bitcoin is putting in a B WAVE which I can see topping off somewhere between $6900-$7000 as stated in my analysis on 8/9/2018
In the chart above, I present a more detailed analysis of Bitcoin's potential price action over the course of the next few days
A move down to the $6150 range (THE GOLDEN RATIO between the .618 fib and .65 fib retracement level)
Followed by a move up to the $6900-$7000 level to complete the correction
And then the resumption of the overall downtrend towards the $5000 level
The chart below shows my analysis on 8/9/2018 where I presented a potential pathway for Bitcoin on the daily chart
Unless Bitcoin breaks above $8000 with volume, and out of this downward wedge can this theory be negated
INVESTOR NOTES:
To be clear, these notes are from the perspective of a day/swing trader. The notes above are not applicable to long term investors. Corrective price action and intermediate spikes in this market are of little or no consequence to anyone holding for long term for larger percentage gains.
If you are an investor for the long term, all of these prices are great buy zones
Buying at $6000, $8000, or even $9000 is of little or no consequence when you believe the price of Bitcoin will one day be $50,000 and beyond
Good investors will accumulate over time, constantly cost averaging their positions, with confidence that current market prices do not represent the true value of the asset in the long term (anywhere from 6months - 4 years)
Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies are still in its infancy as an asset, with only a few hundred billion in its total market cap - as compared to the trillions in the majority of all other asset classes
Patience is key
I am a long term BULL
