Short term bearish outlook + new resistance @ 0.618 fib Short

Ether / United States DollarCoinbase

Description

Hey all,

Very glad I got spooked around $313 and closed out my long position for a small gain. I didn't see enough explosiveness when testing the $320 resistance, and as such the rally ran out of steam.

From a macro level, we also have ICO cashouts effecting the ETH/USD pair in a bearish way.

My prediction is for trading to continue bouncing around the downtrend channel. Now that the 0.618 fib has been breached and is now acting as resistance, I predict short-term price action between the 0.618 and 0.382 fib retracement levels.

After we stabilize and find a new solid lower support, I am going to open another long position. For the next few months, I imagine the interests of the ICO cashouts will have a big impact on the price level. I think each major bump up in price will be sold rather quickly, resulting in some sideways action for 1-2 months before a new solid uptrend can emerge. I'll be updating my analysis, but my preliminary strategy will be to buy dips and sell peaks, not holding a position for much longer than a few days.

I'd appreciate your thoughts!

Cheers!
