BTC/USD Analysis – March 18th: Bitcoin Prepares for Growth, but the Risk of Collapse Remains

This image is no longer relevant

The 4-hour wave structure for BTC/USD appears clear and well-defined. After completing a five-wave bullish trend, a bearish phase began, which currently resembles a corrective pattern. Based on this, I do not expect Bitcoin to surpass $110,000 - $115,000 in the coming months.

Bitcoin's uptrend was supported by a steady flow of positive news regarding institutional investments, government purchases, and pension fund allocations. However, Trump's policies have driven investors out of the market, and no trend can remain bullish indefinitely.

The wave that started on January 20 does not resemble an impulse wave, suggesting we are dealing with a complex corrective structure that could last for months. The internal structure of this first wave is intricate, but I can identify a five-wave a-b-c-d-e pattern within it.

If the current wave analysis is correct, Bitcoin is now forming a corrective bullish wave, which, based on classical Elliott Wave theory, should consist of three waves.

BTC/USD has managed to halt its decline, and the current wave structure suggests a potential rise. However, this conclusion is based purely on technical wave analysis, as the fundamental backdrop remains bearish for Bitcoin, stocks, and other risk assets.

That said, it's crucial to remember that wave analysis does not control markets—it only highlights the most probable scenarios.

The price action over the past few days indicates a lack of buyers, which is another bearish signal. Additionally, the downward wave structure could evolve into an even more complex, extended pattern, surpassing the initial a-b-c-d-e formation.

Currently, Bitcoin appears to be slipping back toward the low of wave e, which leads me to believe that a three-wave correction may not materialize, and the downtrend could resume sooner than expected.

Analyzing the fundamental backdrop won't take much time—there are no major bullish developments that could justify a strong price surge.

Instead, we see a clear pattern. Since Donald Trump became U.S. president, Bitcoin has consistently lost value. This remains the primary bearish factor, and I expect it to continue pushing market participants toward selling Bitcoin.

General Conclusions

Based on my BTC/USD analysis, I conclude that Bitcoin's current growth phase is over. Everything suggests that we are in the early stages of a complex, multi-month correction.

I have not recommended buying Bitcoin before, and I certainly do not recommend it now.

A drop below the low of wave 4 would confirm that Bitcoin is entering a full-fledged bearish trend, likely of a corrective nature.

Therefore, I consider the best approach to be searching for short-selling opportunities. If a bullish correction occurs, I will look for selling opportunities with targets around $68,000 and lower.

On higher timeframes, Bitcoin has completed a five-wave bullish cycle and is now in the early stages of a corrective or full-scale bearish trend.

Key Principles of My Analysis:

  1. Wave structures should be simple and clear. Complex patterns are difficult to trade and often change unexpectedly.
  2. If there is uncertainty in the market, it is better to stay out.
  3. There is never 100% certainty in market direction. Always use Stop Loss orders.
  4. Wave analysis can be combined with other types of analysis and trading strategies.
