The euro perspective of bitcoin: 16k versus 8k

EuroStockOption Updated   
BITSTAMP:BTCEUR   Bitcoin / Euro
TLDR: attempt to long around 16k-17k with stop at 15k, switch to short if under 13k
--

Area around 16k EUR is likely to be at least a local bottom, given:
-strong confluence of fibs
-technicals entering oversold zone
-symmetry of a lower degree: -73% correction
-close to major top of 2018
-coincide with volume profile wedge, albeit a small one


A rebounce could be produced in the short term.

However if BTC keep sliding, either directly or after a rebounce, the next meaningful support will probably be found around 8k-9k, due to:
-huge volume profile wedge
-symmetry of a higher degree: -85% correction
-some confluence of fibs


Risk assessment: if stop hit, loss will be ~10% depending on entry price.
Trade active:
Trade active: On second thought: action off the low is actually quite constructive, so start building position here. For a total of 5 tranches:
-keep 2 tranches in reserve
-long 1 tranche each at 19.5k, 18.5k, 17.5k
-all 3 with stop at 17k
Comment:
Stop moved up to 18.6k, for the two tranches that got filed.

Cancelling the order that is still open at 17.5k, as it shouldn't be reached if further action remains bullish.
Now keeping 3 tranches in reserve.
Trade active:
Bought one more tranche at 22.5k, stop for all 3 tranches moved up to 21k.
Remaining 2 tranches will no longer be used for this swing trade.

RSI is weakening and volume not quite followed through, final target for exit probably around 25k - 26k.
