CAUTION - Bitcoin at a Cross-Roads

Looking at the daily chart there two significant elements to pay attention to:

(1) Support Zone ($7100 - $ 5800) - this price range has been tested a number of times and a clear break below this zone could see us drop to around $4200 (1.138 Fib extension) or even $2400 (1.272 Fib extension).

(2) Resistance Trendline - Also tested a number of times. A clear break may be the catalyst for a bullish rally to $10 000.

We really are at a cross-roads as I expect we will get a much clearer indication of medium term price direction depending on which breaks first - support or trendline.

Given that we are currently in a bear market, I believe that a downside break is more likely. Furthermore, on the shorter timeframes we are seeing reversal patterns repeatedly fail to reach target - a strong sign of prevailing weakness.

Conclusion - I would avoid buying Bitcoin at current levels. I would rather wait to buy after a clear break above trendline and a new bull trend looks likely. Should support break I will be looking for trend reversal patterns to build new long positions.

Imho, it should go up. Ecosystem is expanding. Hilarious fact, that few hours ago, "small" purchase of 2-5k BTC would have easily made breakout. Yet no one bought for that amount.
