Bitcoin Could Fall Towards $9,000s: Textbook Wyckoff PatternBitcoin may be prepared to break towards the $10,000s, then to the $9,000s according to a recent analysis. One trader recently noted that BTC’s chart since the end of July looks almost identical to a schematic depicted by legendary technical analyst Richard Wyckoff. As the chart below shows, BTC’s price action looks like Wyckoff’s distribution schematic #1. The schematic lines up with an asset’s price action when it is near a local or medium-term top. Bitcoin following the schematic to a T from here will mean that it will soon extend towards the $10,000s, then likely lower to pre-rally levels. This may mean that by the middle of September, BTC trades in the mid-$9,000s once again.
