Crypto-Currencies: Bitcoin, Litecoin and Ethereum for October 21st

Crypto-currencies are now mainstream trading instruments. I am providing charts in this blog on a weekly basis. I plan to cover just three cryptos: Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum. The point of this weekly post is to show the crowd psychology behind the price movement to support high-quality trades.

BTCUSD — No change in forecast, still in a retracement, lower prices still expected.  Expecting a termination move and one of two supports 5400 or 4700.  This is a termination move and a lower low must be achieved to set up positive D on RSI. This is a significant low on Cryptos and I am looking into the November time frame for a turn.

ETHUSD — No change in forecast. Target has been achieved at the $168 target as mentioned two weeks ago. We have broken lower and am expecting a lower low into the November time frame and the 147-140 area. This will set up positive D on RSI. I am looking for the end of wave B here.

LTCUSD – No change in forecast. We have seen the low below $49 as discussed a few weeks ago. Currently expecting at least $43 and positive D on RSI. Once seen I am looking for a clear reversal pattern in the first week of November or so. Let’s see how this sets up.

Since my post back on Sept 2nd, we have been on a steady decline in Cryptos. We formed and have broken the triangle on BTC which means that a terminal move lower is playing out.  I am waiting for 5400 on BTC to start looking for a reversal pattern and positive D on RSI. My cycle work indicates a turn in early November. Trade safe.
