BTC Outlook
For the past couple weeks, we’ve been suggesting that Bitcoin rejected going to $30k and is now consolidating on its way back up to $50k. Over the weekend we looked like idiots as $40k was rejected and going into Monday morning things were looking grim. As we suggested last Thursday $33-35k holding as support would give traders a reason to come back in and buy, betting on a double bottom. Well, that played out quickly and now BTC is back above $44k. The picture we painted a couple weeks ago seems to be playing out. The next step in this journey is to consolidate near the current levels and make an attempt at $50k.
Possible Course of Action (advice from last week still holds)
Get long betting on a breakout from this W neckline
Look to short near $50k
The Bulls’ Defense:
Double Bottom, W
The Bears’ Prosecution:
Russia invasion of Ukraine causing global uncertainty in risk assets
ETH Outlook
ETH continues to trade correlated to BTC but with more downside and less upside. You can see a double bottom has formed but unlike BTC which has rallied forming a W with a horizontal neckline, ETH has formed a W pattern with a downward sloping neckline. It is still possible for a bullish breakout but expect BTC to continue to outperform in the short term. Many altcoins are experiencing this same behavior with the exception of a few (FTM, LUNA).
Possible Course of Action
Get long betting on a breakout from this W neckline
Fade rallies with small shorts
The Bulls’ Defense:
EIP-1559 has burned $5,765,525,179 (1,931,061 ETH) so far. Supply constraints should continue to have a positive impact on price.
Double bottom, W
The Bears’ Prosecution:
Russia invasion of Ukraine causing global uncertainty in risk assets
