Horizontal Triangle - Wave 4

BITSTAMP:BTCUSD   Bitcoin
Hope you're all off to a great start to the week.


After staring at this dang chart 24/7 since this correction began, I believe BTC is consolidating in this HORIZONTAL TRIANGLE before one last move to the upside.

Typically, PARABOLIC moves out of BTC conclude with a blow off top.

The horizontal triangle is a pattern that consists of five sub-waves that form a 3-3-3-3-3 structure, labeled as A-B-C-D-E. Unlike the motive wave, which also has five waves, this pattern reflects a balance of forces and travels in a sideways pattern. The sub-waves are corrective and form patterns of threes.

One thing to remember about horizontal triangles is that they always appear in the position prior to the final move of the pattern, or as the final pattern in a combination (described below). This means that they will appear as Wave 4 in an impulse wave or as Wave B in a zigzag. This one fact can help alert an analyst to a change in trend.
