HTF Bitcoin short based on PA

Short

BITFINEX:BTCUSD   Bitcoin
Bearish outlook for two reasons:

Price has so-far failed to close above the key resistance/support level (red) despite numerous tests.
This has proven to be a key level which can be visualised in the 1D chart below.

has failed to close above the .618 fib level (blue), the only test resulted in a strong rejection.
Historically cycles have reversed at the .618 retracement level of the previous cycle, I have no reason to assume it will be different this time, especially when it is so close to such a key S/R level.

Extra info:
The year-long downtrend is currently $525 dollars away (black dotted).
I am still expecting positive altcoin movements.
Will add to my short if the price revisits 6800 and plan to add again if the 6535 becomes resistance.

Comment:
Will consider long positions if the ~6555 area responds well, eyeing a potentially similar scenario as June where the Key R/S level was touched twice before a move north - possibly to the yearly downtrend line at ~7175.

25% covered at 6450 and manually closed a further 50% @ 6370.

Added back at 6520 on the 6535 will become resistance.

Despite the price skew on finex, the daily still closed below the B/B line.

No major position changes but taken some profits last week and managed to get some asks filled on that wick up. Avg entry is now 6707.
Comment:
Added more at 6465. avg entry is now 6637.

This has turned into a range play and therefore will only update when this position is finally closed out to save on spam.
