I think it's time to turn bullish again guys! #BTC bounced after beautiful double bottom, now the price should test the bearish pennant support.

Usually I'd say that it's a bearish setup, however, I think that this time we'll see smth like that: flat around $54500 - $55000 and then pump back to $60k.

Note that this is risky and basically against the local trend! Don't go all in and be ready to fix some loss in case of failure!

Remember Coinbase CEO and top stuff dumped almost 100% of their stocks on the 1st day of direct listing. No believe in their company = no reason to trust it. Scam.

SRM is one of those coins that look really promising in case market bounce. Which is still under question. SRM may pull back to 6-6.2 in bullish scenario and to 5-5.5 in bearish scenario.

Targets can be only above ATH. Otherwise makes no sense in taking any longs at current stage. Double top is too close comparing to stop loss distance.

​​📉 Daily Bitcoin chart review 📈

I hoped for Bart pattern or some other crypto magic instead of listening to my own forecast made April 18th which clearly indicated nearest future. The problem in trading is that you often forget the big picture when smaller timeframes revive your bullishness just before everything dump to the hell.

BTC hit support pivot at 47500. AC indicator pending green (yesterday started same but ended up with another red arrow). So bounce could be near. Support at 45k is strong and attract price like a magnet - may see a scam wick there before next short term bounce. Big picture stay same -correction can easily take price to 35k within next week.

🟥 50050 - 51000 - 52150

​​📉 Daily Ethereum chart review 📈

Lets take a look at crypto bulls locomotive. Yesterday's volume was record high since February bottom, but closed at Feb Higher High level. Although lots of volume came from dips bought below 45000, we can't be sure that its enough to push ETH to 50000-55000 yet (while mid term these TP stay valid in any case). Watch daily close. Chances of drop back to 40000 for higher liquidity stay open.
