Hello, traders! It must come to you as a surprise that Bitcoin is declining following a "fakeout" (false breakout) from a bull flag. As a matter of fact, I am more surprised that price has managed to stay above $8,000 for so long.
Bitcoin was never supposed to hit $8,506 in this round but it did. Maybe the media played a part in it. However, I am more inclined to believe that most of it was done by whales to stop hunt bears that opened short positions around $8,000 and they succeeded brilliantly.
This blow-off top and fakeout you are seeing were obvious to spot. Why? The Winklevoss' ETF was never a factor for this recent Bitcoin rally because we knew it from last year that SEC would never have approved it. The selloff following news of its rejection was a joke! Let's just say the whales played us all.
Secondly, you have so many traders in TV telling you recently that Bitcoin is going to $8,800. Just like every trader was screaming $4,000 or $1,000 when Bitcoin was at $5,800 or $6,200 and it did the exact opposite - twice! In those two occasions, I was the only trader here telling you to aim $6,800 and $8,000, respectively. Was I right? Hell, yeah! This is all clearly stated in my Bitcoin Q3 Trading Guide that I posted back in July 1st - before price got to $6,800 or $8,000.
Now, I am telling you that Bitcoin is not going to $8,800 (called it first) because it is due for a price correction. Right now, Bitcoin is on a corrective wave that will lead price down to $7,600 - $7,720, the area marked with W. If that level holds, we will see a technical rebound to the level marked X - don't expect anything above former high of $8,506. If price breaches $7,600, it will test the next support level down at Y which is around $7,300 and Y will become W. We will talk about that later if it happens.
For those who want to see a bigger picture of where Bitcoin is headed, please refer to my Bitcoin Q3 Trading Guide.
As I have informed some of you, my upcoming Bitcoin Q4 Trading Guide will be postponed to late August or early September. I won't be sharing it publicly for obvious reasons which I will explain through private messages only.
