Bitcoin – Short-Term Bounce Before Another Leg to 50K?Bitcoin / U.S. dollarBITSTAMP:BTCUSDkristijanslatinsekBitcoin has completed a strong upside impulse and is now consolidating. While a small intraday buy opportunity is developing, it is not the primary trade I am interested in. The broader structure suggests one more leg to the downside remains likely. Current view: • Minor short-term buy may form a flag structure • That upside wave could complete before downside continuation • Primary target zone below: 52,000–50,000 I anticipate a break of the previous low before any sustainable bullish expansion begins. From a higher-timeframe perspective, Bitcoin does not yet appear ready for a strong long-term advance. A broader accumulation or sideways phase may develop after the projected downside move completes. Plan: • Tactical: Possible short-term buy if flag confirms • Primary focus: Sell continuation toward 52K–50K • Longer-term: Reassess for accumulation after deeper correction Execution will depend on lower-timeframe confirmation.
