It's sunday, what are we looking for next week?

Bitcoin

Bitcoin has shown significant weakness near its all time highs driven by bearish volume and has set lower highs and lower lows on the intraday time frames. Very likely to be an oversold bounce near term, however momentum may not be there to drive the next leg higher. This bounce could be short lived if it happens at all. If it does, a lower high here would likely drive the next leg lower.

Trade: Manage risk - Take profits, raise capital to buy dips or buy on a break out.
Risk Trade: Buy here, set a stop loss below 68 ema, $3904.
Alternative: Diversify by purchasing Alt cryptos.

If breaks down, Bearish targets: $3808, $3600's, $2900's
If breaks higher on VOLUME, Bullish targets: $4550, $4800, $5000

After a run like bitcoin had it is my personal view that it will retrace up to 61.8% of the recent rally, Fibonacci level which would be a 38% decline and we would look to buy that dip.

After running from $2929 to $4400-$4500, it was expected that there would be profit takers and that the price action needs to at least consolidate.

30 minute Chart vs. 1 Hour Chart
We are watching for a full 30 minute stochastic cycle on the 30 minute chart and how much damage or progress happens during. Note the Moving Average cross on the 30minute and the bearish twist in the ichimoku cloud.

Ethereum

Ethereum has been consolidating in a range between $280-$319 forming a bull flag on the daily time frame. We will be looking for volume to drive a break higher. Must hold support is $282, resistance to break and capture is approximately $304-$307.

Trade: Enter here, set stop loss $278
Alternative: Buy on breakout volume confirmation, approximately $308-$310

LiteCoin

Litcoin is clearly consolidating on a historic trendline which denotes that through all of the recent crypto swings, Litecoin is one of few that has maintained a steady up trend and is now forming a tightening pattern known as a wedge.

Trade: Buy here, set stop loss $42, $39 for a higher risk tolerance
Alternative: Buy on break above wedge, approximately $48.

BitCoin Cash

Bitcoin Cash had rallied 177% before finally pulling back to consolidate. This is a HIGH risk trade, not for the faint of heart. I am observing a bullflag on the 4hour time frame, but what may end up as a very bearish candle stick on the daily time frame. I advise on a chart like this, investors or those with little trading experience wait for a steep pullback to enter.

Risk trade: Enter here, set stop loss at approximately $715 (very loose as there would be volatility on a any kind of move)
Alternative: None

Edited: BCC bull flag broke down and dipped, you would watch for lots of bullish volume to come in on this dip to re-enter

Watching for an oversold bounce as the price consolidation continues to squeeze. Walk stoplosses up with price progression if any.

The Importance of sell stops to preserve capital
