BITCOIN: Equal Patterns = Equal Results?

Another day of tiny volume, drafting what people is starting to call another “Bart” pattern, this time inverted.
Actually, if we want to be more rigorous with the TA and Pattern Recognition nomenclature this is what is called as Bear Flag… again…
Flags or pennants used to indicate a sudden acceleration of the price, it could be upwards or downwards but, since it is placed at then of a long candle down it is more likely that the acceleration would occur by tthe same direction, downwards…
Also, I feel it must be downwards since the EW-count still has some room to add a

Elliott Wave Analysis
In Elliott Wave terms, Steem began a wave one advance in December 2017. The red wave one (blue sub-waves i-ii-iii-iv-v) finished in April 2018, and the red wave two (blue sub-waves a-b-c) correction ended in December 2018. If this wave count is correct, Steem should be heading next towards the April 2018 peak in the red wave three.

BITCOIN: This is the EW count on play…

I have to make reference here to my post published on January 15th, called “BITCOIN: Current Possibilities”.

There, I planned two scenarios, depending if the 5th wave was already completed or not…

Well, what it seems now is that the previous 4th wave formation has lasted 5 days to complete and what we are seeing right now is the final 5th wave down…as an extended wave.

The target support 1 has been crossed by the price, reaching resistance at the same level of wave (3) and creating a double bottom which is a good sign of recovery but, the (5)th wave down

When a Bullish Market?

…or better said, by when the reversal will be confirmed?

Honestly, I do not know with certainty but I can share with you what I think are really good and simple tools to assess this point:

The Crypto Total Market Cap, in a Daily timeframeThe 200 DMA lineThe “Volume Flow Indicator” by LazyBear

Essentially, the Market is in a Bearish Trend when, the 200 DMA keeps located above “Total Market candle Line” and the “Volume Flow Indicator” [VFI] keeps below the “0” line separating two scenarios.

So, to confirm the reversal trend we should have to see first, an “approach” of the “VFI”

Steem Rallies 70+% on @steemit Full Power Down…EMBRACE THIS #crypto #blockchain

You can’t make this up folks. I have been saying this for months, in fact many have been saying this for a while. And now the MARKET has reacted to it. While EVERYONE (many) on Steem blockchain moan and groan about @steemit powering down, I am like…

Steem immediately went straight up over the next 6 days once @steemit started the full powerdown. The MARKET loves this. For a reaction of 70+%, you can’t argue with the price.

$SPX Weekly Outlook: NEUTRAL… $QQQ $IWM $DJI

US Markets have ripped higher to start the year. This is the best start to the Russell 2000 since 1987 (pun intended). We are halfway into the first month of the first quarter and the Bull is Back in Gear!

Although this was quite the V-Shaped rally that, NO ONE expected (which is exactly why it happens), we are still in a very neutral to bearish area. You can see the V-shape, panic buying, that has progressed over the past few weeks.

All of this buying to get back to HEAVY RESISTANCE (at 2680), and the DECLINING 200 Day MA at 2760.

STEEM – Stuck in a Trading Range

The price of steem saw a little pump the past couple days.   This has caught people’s attention and has folks speculating on why it has happened.
Here’s the thing, even with this little pump nothing has changed at the moment.  We are still in the same trading range we have been in, just now we are near the top end of it.
I know, I sound like a debbie downer.  I swear I’m just conveying what the charts are telling me though.  I do hope we can break this range to the upside.
