A Major Move is Coming in Bitcoin

מעודכן
Will the breakout be a rocket or a crash? I don't know yet... but, I have three great ways to tell when it starts and be able to jump in early to catch most of the action.

1. We're in a massive ascending wedge. These wedges can go either way, but they usually break out explosively. The action in Nikkei and Crude Oil during the middle of last year are two great examples of both scenarios.

2. Volume is declining, showing that there is a lot of pent up energy which will fuel the breakout regardless of direction.

3. RSI is massively diverged, but it would be a mistake to see that as a definitive bearish signal. We're at the stage in the cycle where momentum is diverged so frequently that it ceases to be a reliable signal. What does matter is the direction that it breaks out of it's own pennant.

I'll jump in once all three patterns have been broken. The worst mistake I could make would be picking a side now instead of waiting to see which way the wind starts blowing.

This is all my personal opinion. It's not advice.

On a side note, I recently asked a guy what his stoploss for bitcoin was, and he said 100k. What?! That's how I imagine most participants at this point.

Still too soon to tell. This could be a downside breakout, or a head fake. I'm watching for a price check on the bottom of the wedge, and then a volume spike on the decline from there. Short entry at 52k if that happens.
On the other hand, if we re-enter the wedge it'll be inconclusive.

Short term technicals are becoming more bearish by the hour.
