2. Catching the tops with wave patterns ( 30 mins chart) 

  • The rising wedge or ending diagonal at ₹99,872 highs is one of the most rewarding patterns in Elliott Wave analysis.
  • Understanding and applying this pattern effectively allows you to catch tops and prepare for reversals.

  • Key takeaway: If you're on the right side of the pattern—as I was recently—you can reap significant rewards from such setups.

 

3. Possible strategies

Scenario 1: Fall below ₹92,209

  • If Bitcoin breaks below ₹92,209, it could confirm a larger corrective phase.

  • Key downside targets:

    • ₹83,625: Equality projection of the fall from ₹1,08,367 to ₹92,209.

    • ₹73,555: 162% extension projection of the same move.

  • Strategy:

    • Wait for confirmation below ₹92,209 before entering short positions.

    • Use ₹92,209 as the invalidation level for bullish positions.

Scenario 2: Holding above ₹92,209

  • Bitcoin may continue its consolidation, eventually breaking higher.

  • Strategy:

    • Monitor for a breakout above ₹99,872 to confirm a resumption of the uptrend.

    • Target higher levels for Wave-2 correction, with stops below ₹92,209.

4. Outlook for next week (by 3rd Jan 2025)

  • The sideways movement is expected to resolve, providing clear directional cues.

  • Bearish bias: Favored if ₹92,209 breaks decisively.

  • Bullish potential: A strong hold above ₹92,209 with a breakout above ₹99,872 could invalidate the bearish outlook & has to be reviewed again later.
