Panic hits the market.

BITFINEX:BTCUSD   Bitcoin
Panic hits the market once again after a drop, but market structure remains intact.

Going to keep this short and sweet for you all. While we hold macro higher lows, Fibonacci and trend line support the structure is intact. I am day trading this and will be scalp trading from any bear flags that break to the downside, but medium term while we hold key supports I maintain longs.

The bearish argument here is that we have declining volume and bearish divergences while the price rises with a big SFP on the daily, but the counter argument I present is that we hold critical support levels and it is not until those are taken out I will close the majority of my longs, or we hit my upside targets.

We could have the possibility of an ending diagonal 5th - rising wedge if we do bounce from here, but that would coincide with my targets on Bitcoin.


Overall it is important to have a plan and stick to it. Don't be trading out of fear or a bias, trade the chart with a plan and stick with that until a major red flag shows or it is invalidated. I have taken a quick scan on sentiment this morning and everyone has turned extremely bearish and while not a top metric, something to keep in mind as the market loves a shake out.




In an uptrend a retracement is normal while market structure is maintained.
