BTC/USD Overview + Possible OutcomesHello Traders, Investors, And TradingView Community, In this weekly BTC/USD analysis, we will be taking a brief look at the most recent events, current chart technical formations, as well as the possible BTC short-term price outcomes. Overview Bitcoin has spent the past week experiencing a long-awaited pullback, after which it started consolidating. The largest cryptocurrency by market cap has, after failing to break its all-time high, dropped significantly and reached as low as $16,200 before bears reached exhaustion. While some analysts are calling for an end of the pullback, most of the data shows otherwise. First off, the current controversy around China seizing 1% of all Bitcoin is contributing towards the overall bearish sentiment. Second, a poll done on crypto investors says that the majority of investors believe that BTC will end up correcting as much as 40%. All this, plus the fact that Bitcoin couldn't push past $17,260 for a couple of days now is a testament to the short-term bearish sentiment. On the other hand, people shouldn't mistake this for a long-term bearish trend. In fact, Bitcoin has never been more bullish long-term. Technical factors Bitcoin has continued moving up and performed exactly what we called last week (a push towards the all-time high). Once again, as expected, the push didn't break the all-time high, and has triggered a strong pullback. Bears have reached exhaustion at just over $16,000 and Bitcoin has started consolidating in a range, bound by $17,260 (both horizontal resistance and a 100-period moving average) to the upside and $16,420 to the downside. The hash ribbons indicator still shows a buy/accumulate signal as it points out to miner capitulation. Likely Outcomes Bitcoin's movement is a bit less obvious this week when compared to the past weeks. The cryptocurrency has a couple of scenarios it can play out as it leaves the current range-bound trading. 1: If Bitcoin breaks the range to the downside (slightly less likely), its most likely target will be $15,500. Due to the short-term bearish sentiment surrounding Bitcoin at the moment, a short trade doesn't have to be considered as "trading against the large trend" and may actually be a good profit-making opportunity. In this case, a clear stop-loss should be set a little above $16,420. 2: The second (just slightly more likely) scenario happens if Bitcoin manages to break the $17,260 mark. In this case, the cryptocurrency can reach many targets, but will most likely pass the $17,600 immediate resistance, and push higher. The next zone of resistance after that is the $18,250-$18,450. Trading Bitcoin's sideways action in a current range is not advised as the price could break out of it at any time.

Wanted to short 19k but procrastinated. Short from $17k Facts: 1) We went from 11k btc short finex to 5k btc (datamish). There are now less shorts closing to use a fuel. 2) We rejected from ATH, pretty hard as expected. Scenarios in order of likely hood: 1. Shortterm Bearish: $15.9k before $18k. Then 14k 2. Totally wrecked: Down to ~$14.5k (50ma daily) from here, bounce $2-3k. Next good support will be ~$12k (200ma daily). 3. Just bullish enough to wreck shorts: back to $19k, reject, double top confirmed. Fall to $14k extremely quickly. 4. Dumb Bullish: I'm 100F% wrong. Blast past $20k from here with no shorts as fuel. BTC to $50k. This is comically ahead of time, but 10k and 7k are massive buy zones (Weekly MA's and Volume profile and this is the chart I'll be using the upcoming months.
