BITCOIN MUST COME DOWN TO ~$5000! WHY??

Updated
Hello followers and other TradingView (TV) users!
Looks like all TV TOP authors make a bullish and 20k+ forecast for BTC! I have to admit that I definitely don't see Bitcoin price 20k in this year! But, but we could see some bull run when we have taken out some lower levels!
If Bitcoin want's to go to the all-time high (ATH) then it must gain again the people trust but at the moment like in real life - make one mistake and if You want to win again other people's trust then you have to do things right in the next 8-12 times and then maybe people trust You again! So as Bitcoin, this year we have only seen a disappointment after disappointment! I would like to say that the first ohooo...moment to the retail traders/investors would be the 4 digit number ($10000) when people start to come again and look what is going on here :)

Let's jump into the chart!
In the main 'picture' I have drawn an Elliot Wave forecast! This matches exactly with my support levels step-by-step! First two waves have completed and we are on the 3. the longest wave. This wave must find support from ~$5400 area, there crossing the minor trendline and the support area.
In history we have three bounces from that price level (on the image below):
*18.10.2017
*25.10.2017
*12.11.2017

After that comes 4. wave (correction wave) and have to find resistance from THE BIG Trendline since 17.12.2017
And now the last 5th wave, where we see Bitcoin reversal! In this area on the BTC chart is a 'clean' area (image below) where the price has rallied up and never looked back (12.10.2018), now we look back and finally retest this area! This area, to me, looks like a logical level where we could see the trend reversal and escape from the bullish falling wedge which also means break the main down trendline to turn bullish again!

You probably think - wtf clean area, there is so many like this! But I say there is not so many as big as this one. The next is around 3k but I CAN'T be so bearish because I love crypto! :D

RED CANDLE WAR! Just an interesting fact, at the moment we have 9(!!) red candle close succession in the 4h chart!
I watched the history and from the beginning of 2016, we have seen this only two times and all those are been in this year:
16.01.2018 - 10 red 4h candles
04.02.2018 - 9 red 4h candles
All those had a massive volume and big candles downwards but at the moment looks like no volume at all!

snapshot
Note
So, as You will assume we move downwards and we move downwards inside a widened channel! We had one breakout several hours ago but not so significant and at the moment the price is back in the channel! As I mentioned yesterday we have a strong area around $6213 where we moved up and down, touched and bounced etc. but as I expected there is so much selling pressure and we bounced down! Daily candle close was bearish and from that, I could say BTC shows us bearish action today also!
To be continued!

Note
I have on the major picture one typing error!
The unfilled area is from 12.10.2017, not 12.10.2018!
Sorry about that!
Note
We have another strong area on the chart (lower green box/line) 2h ago we bounced back from there and we got Shooting star candlestick pattern, which is bearish but now after the last 1h candle closes we break through from this level! Let's see we have mixed signs here again!

snapshot
Note
...but let's wait for the 4h candle close also to confirm this little bullish momentum! 2h to go!
Note
On the 15 min. chart we have to fight with EMA's to stay on this level!

snapshot
Note
We have here something interesting!
A continuation pattern "Falling wedge" and if the 4h candle closes below this green box area and below this bottom wedge trendline then this is a pretty significant bearish sign!
snapshot
Note
Continuation pattern "Rising Wedge"!!*
Note
UPDATE: If the candle closes like on the image below we have two strong confirmations on the 1h timeframe:
1. Break below the strong area
2. Break below the continuation pattern "Rising wedge"

snapshot
Note
No bearish confirmation at the moment! Buyers react quickly to the selles pressure to push the price down and right now a nice battle between them! Buyers pushed the price back up and we see "Hammer" candlestick pattern! Which indicates - there are some bulls :) IF the last candle close would have been green and more above the strong area then it could mean definitely a bullish sign but this close was red and not above this box so, nothing tradeable!

snapshot
Note
Another hour is over and what a candle close - just on the strong area!
On the 5.min chart, we could see closely what the price did! Bounced up and find a resistance from the Fibonacci 62% retracement level and bounced back from 200EMA!
At the moment who want to trade BTC then PLEASE DON'T, if You don't have inside info! :D

snapshot
Note
We have some volume from the bottom trendline and from 6k corssing area! Since there we could see bulls have dominated this market but nothing special! Still found resistance from a trendline (channel upper lina) . If we break this trendline then we could say that this is confirmed that bulls are back!


snapshot
Note
Above the $6150 - at least 1h candle close confirms bullishness!
Below the $6000 - at least 1h candle close confirms bearishness

Otherwise it's just a sideways movement!
Note
I give to You little bit better outlook what I mean about the post above!
‘Candle close above the $6150’ - this means that when we get a close on this area (on the image below the light green box) we have a breakout from a “Rising wedge” chart pattern and also we have breakout upwards from the widening channel! So, we bounced up from $6000 (Hammer) and we break out from the two chart pattern = bullish hours/days
‘Candle close below the $6000’ - little bit different story. First of all if we close there (small red box on the image below) so that’s means we have a breakout downwards from a continuation pattern “Rising Wedge” and we have a breakout from widening channel + we take down the round number which is $6000! So, three bearish signs from there!
Look closely those levels and see You tomorrow!
