Fortnite
ZNGA can reach $8Zynga currently offers a very bullish set-up
Multi-year break out
followed by weeks of consolidation
#bitcoin - Sell-Off not successful so far. Looking at this nights try to initiate of a breakdown the support level failed for now and has been bought back big times. This does certainly not mean we are out of the woods, but closing the week above the Quaterly Pivot was a good start, especially with a spot-landing on the potential low of the potential Adam and Eve. We do know this pattern well from our $3k-bottom, so don´t laugh at it or even ignore it. It will certainly be invalidated if we breakdown, but that´s not the case yet, it has been defended.
With the new Weekly Pivot just above the price around $9.8 (red label) and the Trendline coming down, this is the mark, that we have to overcome to make this A&E possible. Too early to trade.

#bitcoin - Reversal Adam and Eve Bottom still in the GameEven though Im stuck on my Television due to the Fortnite WorldCup (No Joke) I never forget about my plans, and even there was a further drop, I am still not concerned yet, the small Cup and Handle did not play as it should and in my opinion a little sell-pressure is out of the market, I won´t short this anymore unless we break down the marked area + the weekly S1 (support right now) going all the way to the next Support-Level. The neckline of this Adam and Eve ist still around $11k and the target is around Breakout-Levels and the Yearly R1. I am not going to forecast we will do A, B or C, it doesn´t make any sense. As usual, trade what you see and not what you think could happen. This is one of several possible scenarios my colleagues are presenting some different, which are also fairly possible.
Cheers.

Told Ya So BTC Going UnderAs I said in my previous post, the falling volume with steady outbreak was just setting BTC up for failure. Here we are seeing it flush a little as expected, but there are only two options and for now I am holding a small short with a high leverage just in case it goes under as that small short could increase my portfolio by 20-30% if BTC decides to retest the 7k level again or even lower. Now for the options
Option 1(short): we go down to 9700 here testing the 200 day EMA, run up a little and come crashing through to retest lows.
Option 2(long): This downwards trend we are currently in will end soon and be the hand of the cup for the left shoulder sending us into the Bullish Market.
More TA on the way when we see what occurs.
NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE THIS IS STRICTLY TA AND MY OPINION ON WHAT SHOULD BE DONE WITH MY PORTFOLIO.
