This is a post I did not think I would be writing. But here it is anyway. As you can see from the patttern on Bitcoin that has developed during April we have what appears to be a topping pattern (Head and shoulders style) in the presence of a very large expanding wedge. Now I am not saying this thing is going to break down and crash as that would be a hard call to make just yet. But this alert is going out to you today to warn readers that once price breaks below the neckline shown we will have the technical conditions in play that could result in a very steep fall.

If you are actively trading Bitcoin my best advice is to be sure you have stops in place in the event of a sudden reversal. We all know that computers and algos rule most trading these days and thay are programmed to take certain actions when specified conditions are met. Too many of them acting at once can result in severe and unexpected price changes. The neckline in my estimation is a little more than 2000 points below the current price. Well within striking range of a single days price action. Given the broad market selloff today and that this is a traditional month of low and negative returns it is just prudent to be prepared for bad news.

All the best to my fellow Bitcoiners…..but keep your focus!
