Another chart. I have too many other charts to put here, which I will add in description later. There is a lot going on behind the scene. Bitmex 100x leveraged trading has had a clear impact on the cryptomarket. Other leveraged trading options at Bitfinex for alts are playing a major role and have resulted in wicks which are not ignorable. Currently the alts have too many long positions compared to shorts, where as BTC and only 2-3 others alts have more shorts than longs. Of course there are always other aspects to look at and clearly have an impact on the inter- and intraday prices.

BTC may follow the yellow brick road....
Comment
As long as BTC is within this channel, the expected direction is downwards....
Even if it goes up, the purple line (61.8% fib level) is the maximum upside move that I expect at this stage... unless SEC approves the ETF... in which case we will all have fun chasing the cryptomarket....
