Regular daily update on BTC ta analysts opinions.

**My summary - short-term (next 24h) sentiment: neutral ** (last: neutral)

- We are moving up from 6'200 - Facing strong resistance at 6'400 and 6'800 levels. - RSI on 4hr is coming up - 12hr as well. Which gives us either room for a big move down or is a start of a bull run.

• We probably going up either for a short term dead cat bounce or another impulse on a higher low.

Bearish scenario*:

• Price falls below 6'000 again and quickly gravitates towards 5'500 making a new low before turning to the upside.
• Alternate we recover one more time to a new lower high at around 6'500 and than drop below 6'000.
• Short term recovery from 5'500 staying under 6'000.
• After breaking 5'500 again a significant drop towards new lows in the range of 4'975 and 4'300.

Bull scenario*:

• We make a higher low.
• We break 6'839 followed by 7'050.
• Volume increases in spikes.
• We go towards the 50 week MA and break above it.

Helpful statistics:

monthly performances

• Added 2012 + 2013 on request.
• As 2012 and 2013 the % move are gigantic I added two averages. One without 2012 + 2013.
• June performance was very weak. With -14.8% clearly below the average of the last years. With 2013 this is the only negative month at all.
• July is a mixed bag - 2 year positive performance and 2 year of negative performance. 2012 and 2013 were positive though.
• The average is positive with 2.1% but that is mainly due to the bull rund 2017. The average incl. 2012and 2013 is even more positive. That is mainly due to the 40%+ spike in 2012 so I wouldn't rely on that.
  So just looking at this table we probably facing another negative month.
  

News about the blog

• I added two analysts:

• @tradedevil: Very interesting TAs. Posting on youtube. Having also a steemit account and posting there but just links to their videos - so not too much added value that may also be the reason why they have not many followers here on steemt yet.
  On youtube they have 30'000 follower. Running own trading academy. Will do a summary of those videos.

• Tyler Jenks: Is an money manager with 30+ years of experience. He is very strong focusing on a concept called hyperwave which explains how bubbles work. Also he uses Cosensio - a MA based system to determine where we at in the lifecycle of a market.
  He has his own youtube channel (hyperwave) and does Trading Bitcoin videos often together with ToneVays. Being closely in discussion with Tone - he still has a unique view with a long term perspective. That is why I wanted to include him. He is not posting to often TA on his own. I include him more for a broader picture. Lets see if that can add value.

• UglyOldGoat: Very experienced trader. Very active on Bitmex. Has a relationship to Tone but a very independent opinion on the market. He posts on medium (if you like follow him there) not very regularly. So that is some kind of "nice to have". We see if that makes sense in terms of he frequency of posting.

• Philakone - it seems he just abandoned steemit. On youtube he is focusing on other coins and on "scalping". That is not very well fitting into this summary. That is the reason why I decided to leave him out for now. Very unfortunate...!

• Haejin: Bitcoin Live is where he is posting crypto analysis. That is the reason why I am not able to include him anymore. Also very unfortunate.

Analysts key statements:

Tone (bearish):

Quarterly chart: We are almost done with 1-4 correction. October / November could be the bottom.
Monthly: We are on 5 of 9 - looking for 4 month of downside. Which would bring us also to November as a bottom.

Short-term outlook:

• Weekly: If we close in the area of 6'500 and lower we are to close to the bottom. He is seeing this as a bearish sign and confirming his 5'000 target.
• Daily: We are on a 5 of 9 - 12hr we had a 9 and looking for 4 candles of recovery. That explains the slowdown on the daily 9 bearish count.
• Lower time frame - he doesn't see much bullishness.
  

He expects the drop to 5'000 to be imminent.

He did also an interesting comparison of bitcoin to litecoin. Litecoin formed a Tringle - very clean and had a break down of it. The target is than the hight of the triangle which leads to a target close to 35 USD. Which is exactly the high of 2014 (weekly close) and close to the MA 200 (weekly).
Bitcoin broke also down from a giant triangle and could move similar to it. The target for bitcoin is around 3'200.

@lordoftruth (slightly bearish):

Major Bearish Trend Line is in place with resistance at 6'360 - 6'420 on the below hourly chart, the reason why bitcoin price failed to settle above 61.8% Fib retracement level located at 6'420.

Looking at the below chart, we will see that, Bitcoin price is facing a tough task to break 6'360 - 6'420 Resistance Area. So we still believe, the bears most likely will be able to push the price below 6'039.

daily

On Daily Chart we're still watching for AB=CD target also. As a lot of stops could be accumulated below 5'870 lows and once they will be triggered, the price could accelerate lower towards 5'500 followed by 4'300.

weekly

Stands the same and our major target of AB-CD Pattern around 4'300 still valid as long as the price below 6'842.

Todays trend is slightly bearish. Trading between 6'039 and 6'420.

@ew-and-patterns (slightly bullish):

Update on the bull count:
I am counting white waves 1 and 2 from the 6'070 low. Also yellow subwaves 1 and 2 of white wave 3 might have formed already. If so, BTC should start the next pump very soon.

Scenario from older posts:

Bullish:

Bearish scenario: He sees a short term bounce up to 6'500 and than going down from there.

@passion-ground (neutral):

Still looking for clues as to the sustainability of the recent bear market lows. Thus far, basis the higher highs, and higher lows, we are the right track short-term.
He is still looking for clues how strong the bounce is. Higher highs and lower lows is a good start. But not yet we have broken through significant resistance levels. Next turn month is August, than January.

TradeDevils (bullish):

We have very spiky action followed by sideway moves (boxes). There we have significant support/resistances formed as the market is testing if those level are accepted. We need to get out of current consolidation with a significant spike.

Bullish count is his primary:
He sees some divergence.
We came down to the golden zone which would be the perfect spot for wave 2 and going up from here to a wave 3 with a target of 7'050.
We need to get through 6'580 to get "algo" support. Therefore we need to see some real action breaking to the upside.
Looking for 5 waves up - higher lows.

The bearish view could be that we go up to the 0.5 fib at 6'450. There we get turned around.

Tyler Jenks (neutral):

Short term he only positions himself if he sees a move of the market of 5% in either direction. So at the moment he is neutral but seeing us based on consensio in a bearish market (daily/weekly).
The 7 MA weekly is below the 30 MA weekly and both are declining. That is a bear market by definition for him. Also the 30 MA is accelerating to the downside making it likely to cross the 50 MA in the near future. That would be another bearish sign for him.

UglyOldGoat (bullish):

Beside all analysts who seem to lean to the downside Ugly has a different opinion. He see that fear is influencing the view - looking on the pure technicals he sees based on the TD system

• Quarterly 3 candle correction from quarterly 9
• Weekly buy signaled based on a 9
• 8 hour buy signaled based on a 9
• 4 hour buy signaled based on a 9

IT's time to pull the trigger

The basis, relative strength, the timing indicators all say it is time to pull the trigger and risk 1st and 2nd quarter lows. Yes, if we break it will be hard but that is fear. . . everything else says this is a low risk time and place to be a buyer.

Definition

• light blue highlighted = all content that changed since last update.
• sentiment = how in general the analysts see the current situation (bearish = lower prices more likely / bullish = higher prices more likely). The sentiment is based on 4hr, daily, weekly, monthly candle charts.
• The forecast time horizon of candles can be compared with approx. 4hr = 1-2 days; daily = 4-14 days; weekly = 4 - 14 weeks; monthly = 4 - 14 month.
• target = the next (short term) price target an analysts mentions. This might be next day or in a few days. It might be that an analyst is bullish but sees a short term pull-back so giving nevertheless a lower (short term) target.
• support/res(istance) = Most significant support or resistances mentioned by the analysts. If those are breached a significant move to the upside or downside is expected.
