Bitcoin TA - summary of analysts - 01. May 18
Regular daily update on BTC ta analysts opinions.
**My summary - short-term sentiment: bearish ** (last: bearish)
Moved down - may be the beginning of a correction.
Two major pathways are seen: either turning from 8'900 area towards 9'300 bouncing within triangle or we correct in waves towards 8'600 - 8'400 (even 8'000 - 7'500 @lordoftruth).
April was good month for crypto. June is usually also a good month - not as good as April though. Lets see.

Analysts key statements:
Tone:
- Weekly: Closed near top of prior weeks candle which is very bullish. Week started a bit below which is still ok. Still he sees the bulls need to be cautious. Buying the breakout is the safe way to go. The safest would be buying breakout over 20'000 but he thinks breaking out over 12'000 is a good enough signal. He hopes for a pullback to 7'600 and bounce off the 50 MA and the trend line which would give a strong support to the upside. He is neutral to bearish on the weekly.
- Daily: We are in a no trade zone. He would tighten his range. We will see what happens with the 200 + 128 MA - it will give us a death cross.
@haejin:
Bitcoin (BTC) has broken the bottom white line of the flag pattern. He sees a repetition of the fractal as very possible. The pathway is charted below.
Alternate count:
@ew-and-patterns:
Bitcoin is moving down as expected. The following two pathways will apply:
A:
B:
@lordoftruth:
Outlook stays unchanged; April high 9'767 - correction ahead towards 7'500 - 8'000 (early May) to build iSHS pattern. than move towards 12'400 (5/8 reaction form 6'490). So the pullback is considered a buying opportunity.
Clear breaking of 9'911 will invalid current scenario.
Todays trend is slightly bearish. Expected trading for today is between 8'350 and 9'767.
@philakonesteemit:
Bullish scenario got confirmed. Possible further small wave up to come. See bull/bear scenarios below.
@passion-ground:
The upward trend in BTC, albeit tempered in comparison to past run-up north of 11k, is nonetheless bullish in his view. He expects a correction towards 8'366 before moving up.

nice update, upvoted and resteemed.
This could be counted a few different ways. A case can be made for a breakout up or down. I don't think anyone knows what direction bitcoin is going in the short term...but most agree it's got a bright future.
I'm bullish maybe we see the 12k in May.

@famunger BTC looks weak right now. Next leg down to $8,300. If we see further downside then next area to find support is $7,800. On the flipside, we could see a rally from $8,300 to $10,800. This is more probably given the recent strength, but will see!
April was really a good month for Bitcoin. You spoke about June, what do think of this new month, May.
Happy New Month
