The setup:
$BTC has been in a downtrend that's respected the "Log downtrend line" for the last few months. I believe we are in a Wave 4 ABCDE retracement of a super cycle.
On the weekly, we have just established a higher low and are looking for a lower high still. This lower high will happen at a retest of the "Log downtrend line", where it will temporarily fail and reject.
The rejection will establish a lower high, at which a point a sell off will occur. The sell off will be with declining volume. This will be an early signal for the end of the months long downtrend. Savvy investors will see the declining selling volume and the completed pattern we have been tracking for the last few weeks. Large investors will front run Wave E of the ABCDE in preparation for the large bull run.
Due to the front running, Wave E will likely be truncated, either at the 0.618, 0.786, or 0.887 levels. Monthly, weekly, daily Stoch RSI will be reset. We will see a daily bull div, and the bull run will start.

It's important to note, I did not try to force this into existence. The chart gives me a number of puzzle pieces and it's my job to make sense of it all without forcing pieces where they do not go.
Many people, including myself, thought we were looking at a 5 wave impulse where the minor WXY bump was Wave 1, 2. I always had a problem with this count for two reasons:
1) I did not count 5 waves in this structure, it's more of a WXY, two 3 waves connected.
2) On $LTC, the same chart shows that Wave 2 breaks the Wave 1 low - albeit by a few cents. Still this is an invalidation of EW rules. $LTC and $BTC movements mirror each other, I would expect confluence regarding move types (motive versus corrective).
So with these things in mind, I labeled the major structures as I counted them and came up with this larger WXY. It fits perfectly with our Wave 4 ABCDE and the fibs support it.
It still bothers me that we broke the triangle by a bit. We'll have to see how this plays out. Assuming this is indeed still a Wave 4 ABCDE, then we should see a strong retracement to the targets I have on the original chart. Remember, Wave E is a wave failure and does not have to make it to the bottom of the triangle.
