TRXBTC - Daily chart inverted flag and pennant 

TRON / BitcoinBitfinex

Description

I'm new to trading so gain of salt with my comments and projections.

It looks like we have an inverted flag with pennant. From reading multiple sources I'm figuring this is bad and we may have a big drop coming our way.

thoughts? comments?

TRX has literally zero retraces through the original run to 1050. It’s retraced, consolidates, and also been affected by BtC. I think the next 11 days will be huge, and if we break 1364, a run to 2000 is likely. However, it must be done by May 30th.

I would think if the lows are increasing every time it would be a bullish flag pattern occurring and go up not down.

@brock166, its an inverted flag, even though it looks like its going up, it will more than likely fall further down before coming back up.

@Jefhughe, I was thinking that with Tron VM being released soon, then Main Net launch right behind it, that the TRX price would be going up from here. Not down...???
Jefhughe
@RobbieL811, I would believe that too. I am not a pro at this but I am just going off what the chart is indicating. I am hoping it goes up but hope is just hope with no substance. I'm just going off what I have read about flag poles and pennants. It could turn out in the next few days it drops and then rallies back up. From what I have seen that is what happens.

Again I am not a professional, hack at best but I like my money and just set proper stop loss gaps.

We have higher highs and higher lows, don't think this is what's going to happen. This is a healthy retrace that bounced DIRECTLY off .5 retracement already. To go further would suggest a bear market which I don't think is the case.

Try looking a little longer term and also take into account the mainnet launch incoming very soon.

@alexghs07, I do agree with long term. I've been looking at the four hour charts and have become a bit obsessed. I am still new to crypto. I got into it in March. I've been doing a lot of research with fib, cypher and starting deeper dives into pennants and flags. I'm an engineer by day.
I appreciate your insight. I've not yet incorporated the physiological factor into my research.
I know the mainnet is near and I believe we will ramp up soon.
Yes we have been in a large consolidation which is good. Once the volume picks up the real trend will show.

Again thanks for your feedback and wish all great success.

@Jefhughe, Good luck my friend, it's a good community around here most of the time!

If you look back even a little further, we bounced off .618 retracement levels for wave 4. This assumes a preferred accumulation range that will give a great propellant upward. If we did happen to go back down to 610 first I would be thrilled. I just don't see it happening.
