BTC in an active mid-term down trend/lower consolidation period

Short
BITSTAMP:BTCUSD   Bitcoin
I'll keep it simple.

Weekly Time-Frame
10 SMA - Orange line,
21 EMA - Yellow Line,
20 SMA - Red Line,
Parabolic Sar - dotted crosses


The parabolic sar has printed on the weekly time-frame. I don't use SAR personally unless it is on the weekly which have a very high percentage of playing out. You can see every time the SAR has printed on the weekly, there was a sign of mid -term reversal. BTC has printed the SAR and I suggest, highly suggest you pay attention. The bearish divergence on weekly has been confirmed and usually when bearish divergence are active, you would want to see it travel back down to the 21 EMA.

The EMA death cross on the 4hr has become a meme, but nonetheless, it is playing out. Price will consolidate on the 10 SMA weekly with bounces here and there, but eventually it will break. The target is most likely the 21 EMA on the weekly and 20 MA on weekly. This is a sign of a healthy bull-market continuation of price if it can hold and consolidate on these two levels 21 EMA/20 MA weekly. They are the magnet in the market that will continue to push price further for a couple more years just like it has in previous bull markets. These are the areas of interest that many are looking to buy back for a longer HODL period on BTC.

If price does not hold on the 21 EMA or 20 MA, and closed a candle/open a candle below, that is a sign of disaster to later to come for BTC. Just to have confluences, 4hr is showing a "death cross" on the 50 EMA and 200 EMA while weekly has re-entered the CCI . After a massive run of 300% since March, it will need to consolidate for a longer period of time before it can make another run. The macro time-frame by all means is still in an active bull-market, do not confuse mid-term analysis with macro analysis.

So, how would you play this? Any rally for BTC will be sold into, and opening a short position will more than likely be in your favor because of the trend has reversed to the downside on the mid-term time frame. The blue box on the chart is the interest areas of buyers wanting to step back into the market. Wait for a weekly candle close AND open above the 21 EMA weekly, and that'll be your very very nice long for tremendous upside. Stop-loss under the 21 EMA, your risk reward is amazing at these levels.
