We proceed to consider bitcoin in terms of Elliott Wave theory on an hourly time frame.
BTC/USD H1:
On the hourly time frame of the BTC/USD pair, a formation of the middle part of a large downward zigzag is seen. The bearish wave [A] was completed in the form of a five-wave impulse, which was followed by the development of the corrective wave [B].
Correction [B] has a complex internal structure and consists of three sub-waves (W)-(X)-(Y). Evidently, the first two sub-waves (W) and (X) have already been completed, while the last sub-wave (Y) is still forming. The wave (Y) probably forms a simple zigzag with impulse A and correction B being already completed.
Therefore, the growth in the last impulse wave C to 55000.00 is possible in the near future. At this level, the value of the entire wave [B] will be the 50% impulse [A]. There is a high probability of reaching the specified coefficient.
Currently, it is possible to consider opening buy trades to take profit at the end of the correction [B].
Thank you for your attention. Good luck!
