Update: Is Bitcoin Going Parabloc? - YesLast time I made a similar post about Bitcoin's parabolic behaviour, we were still below 15k. Only 11 days later and we might already be hitting 17k soon.
Bullish sentiment is higher than ever. Together with the stock markets, Bitcoin profits from the US elections and the reduction in uncertainty. Pair this bullish sentiment with the constant addition of USDT into the market and we have a recipe for parabolic growth.
The next minor resistance is around 17k. Consider taking some profits there. If the price manages to beat the 17k resistance like it did with the 14k major resistance, there's nothing stopping Bitcoin from reaching 20k again.

Huge bounce incoming - bids set between 6.8K and 7.2K Dear traders,
Intro: My name is Hugo, I am 24 years old and trading crypto currencies since late 2017. English is not my main language, however, I will try to explain everything brief and clear. Be aware that I am still in the learning curve. Every idea I post is not financial advice and is only meant for entertainment purposes only.
Analysis: In this scenario I personally think that whales want to squeeze longs down to 7K and then swiftly blast through 10K resistance. For this analysis I used the 'Fixed Range Vpvr' and the 'Fib Retracement' to see at what level I should set my limit buy orders. You can clearly see a huge support level at the 0.5 fib level. Therefore, I think lots of retail traders will sell if the 0.5 fib level breaks, which in turn will provide whales with a enough long liquidity to fuel a huge bounce.
Conclusion: I do not recommend shorting this to 7K. I do recommend setting limit buy orders between 6.8K and 7.2K. And of course always have your stops in place.
Goodluck!
Doctor Hugo
Weekly Market recap 7Elections week rollercoaster
After the last week's wild price action related to the US Elections, DXY erased my expectations about any sort of USD recovery. DXY went from the top of the 3-months range to the bottom (currently testing the grey area). The last line of defence before the downtrend in USD resumes is around 91.75 low (Black horizontal line at the bottom of the range). I will be aggressively bearish on USD when that low is broken down.
Two scenarios
1)Risk assets (see NZDUSD and S&P500) are currently testing or slightly pierced their resistances. So we need a decisive impulse in either direction to have a clearer perspective on the sentiment this week. My bias is on the DXY breakdown and the start of risk-seeking sentiment.
2)If risk sentiment begins, NZDUSD seems to have relative strength, so I'd be considering buying it over other risk currencies. On the other hand, looking at the USDJPY, we can see a long-term descending triangle that had just broken down on November 5. I expect USD to be relatively weak currency among safe-havens. Shorting USD looks like a good idea to me.

UPDATE - WARNING - Imminent Bitcoin Drop to 9200My previous posting still stands, but I've 'zoomed' in to the 4hr chart to provide you more detail. This is most likely the end of a 'c' of 'b' of 2 . I'm telling you, there is WAYYYY too much bullish sentiment right now. Everyone thinks we are mooning which means a drop is incoming.
Note the beautifully formed triangle in wave 'b.' if we were going higher, this triangle wouldn't exist as it violates Elliott Wave Theory rules . (Wave 2 is NEVER a triangle by itself) This means it is more than likely a 'b' wave. Adjusting for the end of the triangle gives us a beautiful symmetry, also supporting the idea of this being an upward correction that's now ending with the near term downtrend to resume. Looking at the PURPLE ARROWS and using longer term wave 'a' as a baseline, you can see the target for wave 'c' of 9,200 before the fireworks really begin. There is some big SMA resistance on the way down, but overall sentiment wasn't crushed enough in this recent correction. It is possible we extend past 9,200, but I won't get into those targets until I have confirmation that my count is likely correct. Between current price and my predicted price of 9,200, we have several strong support levels to break, so my 9,200 might not be touched, so look at this as prediction of the short-term direction, not trading advice. I firmly believe we are falling, and accounting for typical symmetry and EWT rules, 9,200 is the roughly calculated result. Not my 'trading target' as I don't try to catch falling knives.
I do see the above wave count as being the most probable . What do you think? I hope I'm wrong as I want my portfolio to explore the stratosphere as well. Don't let your confirmation bias encroach on your ability to reason. If you're sitting there seeing a potential rise in Bitcoin because it's what you are hoping or needing, then it most likely means you're wrong.

EURUSD bullish?Eurusd appears to be bullish. Entry can be made either now or can be set somewhere in the zone and the SL is shown. EU trended down for many years and I believe its above to be different for the next couple of years. If my count is correct we're in the beginning of wave 3 to the highest degree which means a lot of upside. Good luck and comment what you guys would like to see me analyze next. tip: zoom out to see the full analysis.
Weekly Market recap 4: We need patience hereThe glimpse of optimism
The market got back to the explicit state of the "certain uncertainty". You can see that the H&S pattern in DXY failed to push the USD higher. DXY couldn't even hold above the key 94.00 level for a considerable time.
The sentiment shifted from risk aversion to some hints of optimism as S&P500 managed to recover from the correction and even came close to all-time highs. Brent oil made a fake breakout of the 39.00 level showing signs of strengths as it's still consolidating near the key level 44.00.
AUD has been the weakest risk-asset currency recently. Even though it showed attempts to resume the long-term uptrend as optimism grew.
When things get blur
For the last week, the market has been digesting the gains from optimism as S&P500 and AUDUSD pulled back while DXY recovered from recent losses. Brent oil behaves remarkably, however. I cannot really see any obvious relationship of it with stocks and currencies for now; it's just consolidating. The market state is pretty vague at this point. I assume the trigger to the new wave of volatility may come from Brent. The closure above the 44.00 level can hint the bearish sentiment for DXY and attempts to advance below 39.00 can push the DXY higher.
If it's too gloomy, get rid of AUD
Among risk assets, AUD has been the weakest recently. On the AUDUSD chart, you can see the failed attempt to go above MA(50). If it breaks 0.7000, the chances are high that the long-term uptrend is finished. For some reason, AUD pairs have had quite a smooth price action recently, which implies the inflow of liquidity or the general agreement on the direction of the currency. Looks like it is "in-play".
I would consider shorting AUD if the global sentiment shifts more towards safe-heavens.
All in all, it's a good time to be patient now and look for the confirmation signs of the sentiment shift. The technical picture tells that currencies have been in the range for a considerable time already. The longer it stays like this, the more interesting the proceeding trend will be. The most important here is patience. Everything can change very quickly, and traders need to be ready for this.
