Regular daily update on BTC ta analysts opinions.
My summary - short-term sentiment: bullish (last: bullish)
A short term correction is expected to the level of 7'500 - after that continuation of the bullish uptrend.
The bulls see the downtrend to be over and the 6'500 level as swing low.
Tone still remains bearish. Scaling out on weekly he sees no sign of turning bullish (yet). The similarity to 2014 is overwhelming in his point of view - the move upward might be the 2014 bull trap which destroyed the bulls for month.
April is used to be a good month for crypto. Lets see how this turns out this time.

Analysts key statements:
Tone:
- Weekly: Stays clearly bearish.
- Daily: Massive resistance is mounting - 50 MA, 200 MA which has proven as very relevant for bitcoin, fib line, log down trend and some others. He stays bearish and very sceptical of current move.
@haejin:
He is expecting bitcoin to rise further. Blue wave 3 is in the making.
He sees a white "W" pattern in play - the bottom for this pattern is in. The downward wedge is bullish.
@ew-and-patterns:
Best case scenario brings BTC back to 14'000 in only a few weeks (6-12).
The bigger picture could look like this soon. He assumes the downtrend to be over most likely.
@lordoftruth:
Bitcoin facing monster resistance at 8'640. That needs to be cleared to retest 9'120 (swing high).
Bollinger Bands show the upper limit was exceeded. Pull back towards 7'500 seems likely. As long as we stay above 7'380 we are bullish. 6'490 seems to going to hold for the long run (most of 2018).
Todays trend is slightly bullish. Expected trading for today is between 7'500 and 8'700.
@philakonesteemit:
He believes firmly that 6'500 is the floor.
He sees two scenarios. First one is confirmed by breaking 8'240.
Second scenario we correct to 7'621 - 7'428 range first and than move up to strong resistance at 8'650.
@passion-ground:
Bitcoin remain bullish in a unsustainable short-term uptrend. He expects to drop out of it to the downside in the next view days - binging us to a showdown where we see if this current bullish momentum is sustainable or not.

- target = the next (short term) price target an analysts mentions. This might be next day or in a few days. It might be that an analyst is bullish but sees a short term pull-back so giving nevertheless a lower (short term) target.
