Bearish Outlook for Price of Bitcoin With Head & Shoulders Pattern Forming?

2018-8-28 17:27

Last week was a bullish week for Bitcoin as both price and RSI continued to form higher highs and higher lows. The MACD is currently fast approaching a centerline crossover which will be a strong bullish indicator. But we also have a clear head and shoulders pattern forming along with a descending triangle. These are two very bearish patterns, and if they follow through, a fall towards $6k could create a bloodbath for the price.

The descending triangle has been in play since January, and we currently have the right shoulder of the head & shoulders pattern being formed. The downward moving averages would support the bearish outlook as they may serve to provide resistance in the case of an upward movement. However, as long as price continues to form higher highs and higher lows along with RSI, the bullish movement could continue. Any drops have been on low volume which would support a continuation of the bullish move we have been seeing.
