Peak sentiment helped us find the top a few times. The last one was a nice bear market in BTC for a few days. I covered my shorts, and bought part of my BTC position (10% of net worth). I aim to have a maximum of 25%, after we get all the scaling news out of the way, and once we have a new weekly uptrend signal. For now, we are under pressure, and we might see a volatile sideways range ensue.
The daily chart shows a potential uptrend starting, which points to a sharp 10 day advance, today being day #1, which could top and reverse back down to support, be it at the starting point of the move like the previous 9 day rally, or maybe to the 2170 mark.
I noticed people were starting to become negative a day ago, when we were hitting support, and traders who were complaining about being in cash, and even worse shorting, started to complain about NOT being in a short anymore, and missing this action. This is typical behavior at turning points. The thing is that sentiment is rapidly switching, turning 180 degrees over the course of 2 weeks...Interesting to say the least. Combine the crowd behavior, with the fundamental information available to us from multiple sources and we can paint a vivid picture of what's going on, and what we can expect from this or any market.
Best of luck,
Ivan Labrie.
ps: this is the signal I sent to my clients to long: imgur.com/a/uEDiM "Let's try buying a 10% long in BTC now. We will add back to longs gradually."

Comment:
BTC acts strong, being accumulated as fear mongering makes recent 100% bull camp give up.
Comment:
$BTCUSD is likely to chop sideways for weeks to come, but, if we rally further, it can hit $3996.33
