Don't forget to stop and smell the flowers from time to time.

Current Market Cap: $448.66B (-$10.1B in one day) Bitcoin Dominance: 39.8%(+0.4%)

Over the past week Bitcoin has increased its share of the pie while the rest of the market continues to fast. The epic rise of alt-coins, especially tokenized ICO projects, propelled the market cap to unnatural highs so this consolidation period is healthy for the entire space. Without a second wave of investors the prices can remain relatively stagnant for some time.

Consider this an accumulation phase while we set the stage for the next jump.

Today I'm using three different trading tools and indicators: Bollinger Bands, Stochastics and MACD.

Bollinger Bands show we are below the moving average (around $10,600)

Stochastics indicate we are very oversold.

MACD shows that we are slightly below the Zero Line but tapering down on the histogram (red bars). Watch for a crossover of the Zero Line by the blue line suggesting a bullish trend.

Likely Scenarios:

  • BTC tests that low $10K support level before rallying back up to the mid $10K zone by midday.
  • BTC finds the volume it needs and pushes back towards $10,700-$10,900K by tonight.
  • Another attempt at $11K by tomorrow morning with newfound support in the mid $10K zone.

TLDR Version:

Bitcoin is alive and well, don't believe any of the FUD out there! Considering that one year ago the average BTC price was near $1,000 I would say we aren't doing too bad. Strong support in the low $10K zone with resistance still set around $11K.

Price Target:

$10,950

Alt-Coins To Watch:

Many of my favorite coins are super low right now so I would consider increasing positions slowly. This is where I continue to stress the importance of cost-averaging when buying crypto- buy a little now and some later. If the price continues to fall then you won't be frustrated because you went all in at a higher price.
