There are positive signs for a trend reversal but I think the most likely scenario is BTC trades between 9000-7800 for the foreseeable future with no real direction, possibly a capitulation wick down to the 5000 mark.
It is worth nothing the many hedge funds have will only invest in products above a $100,000,000 valuation which is $5887 per BTC (100,000,000,000/16,986,500) at the moment.
The Bitfinex Longs / Shorts are pretty much identical.
The BTC OTC market is booming so I still see BTC smashing ATH within a year but a few months of consolidation would form a better base for this run in addition to hurting people without patience in this high leverage trading environment. I think ALTS will be a better play in the Crypto market for the next few months.
