Bitcoin, The Great Shakeout| Short Squeeze Fractal

BITMEX:XBT   Bitcoin
There's a short squeeze brewing, all the bulls know it.
Perma Bears are still shorting. What's the big picture trade?

Well, our previous long entry at $6040 for the squeeze was viable and currently still in profits.
A hedge Short was opened at $7370

Analysis of the previous squeeze occurring on 4/7 demonstrates a possible fractal in 6 phases:

Phase 1
Swing low, followed by an initial peak ,
Which are labeled on both charts.
(swing low) (initial Peak),
During that period BTCUSDSHORTS declined.

Phase 2
Initial peak to HL (higher low)
Once again labeled on the chart.
BTCUSDSHORTS climbs

Then Phase 3
C1
C for channel, in both cases a rising wedge. That bounced off 61.8% fib
Previous fractal was a perfect bounce, this time around, not quite.
The end result is a LH, lower high
BTCUSDHSHORTS pullbacks, then goes parabolic

Phase 4
Knife
A pullback from LH @ CI, to form HL2 @ fibo %23.6
Expected current target for BTC HL2 $6400

Phase 5
C2
Projected in the near future, yet present on 4/7 fractal.
C2 should draw in even more Shorts to squeeze.
Climbing from fibo %23.6 to %50

Phase 6
Final Shakeout, Drop back down to fibo %38.2,

Then the rest is history.
Initial Target after squeeze, is $10,000 @ Fibo % 161.8

If you're asking why,
Well observing the Shorts chart,

Bulls need to give up hope, and bears need to believe they're actually winning.
The objective: increase leveraged shorts for a mega squeeze
burn out all the bull hopium
Shake everyone out,
then finally Moon it :)


Trade active:
$6400 Target reached for short.
Short closed.

$6300 was longed
$6500 is hedged short in case trade doesn't go in favor.

I expect chop through the channel, Long target $7100
Comment:
Added Fib Timezones to both fractals
I expect to see a big movement on 9/18- 9/19
Around the 9/21st SEC ETF announcement

Previous long stopped out,
Knife was bought with kevlar gloves

Looking for new high to hedge short.
Comment:
Fractal Still in Play
Hedging short is a way to insure profitability

Current Low still higher than previous low,
I'd like to see an upwards retracement to $7100
Trade active:

Fractal is on track for LH,C2
Long still open at $6170
Looking for 6800 T1, to re-assess feasibility of $7100
