Dear readers,

I've prepared a short-term forecast for Bitcoin, Ripple, and Ethereum based on Elliott Wave analysis.

The article covers the following subjects:


Major Takeaways

  • BTCUSD: The fifth wave of the bullish impulse within correction (B) may be nearing completion. Consider long positions with a Take Profit at 81,021.58.
  • XRPUSD: Impulse (C) is projected to continue developing. Consider short positions with a Take Profit at 1.135.
  • ETHUSD: The price may rise in the final part of correction [B] in the coming days. Consider long positions with a target of 2,642.00.

Elliott Wave Analysis for Bitcoin

From a global perspective, Bitcoin is likely forming a large bearish zigzag (A)-(B)-(C). The first impulse wave (A) has been completed, and correction (B) is currently developing as a flat pattern A-B-C. Corrective waves A and B have already formed. The price is now rising in the final impulse wave C and is likely to reach the 81,021.58 level. At that level, the size of impulse C will be 123.6% of the corrective wave A.

Elliott Wave Analysis for Ripple

In the medium term, XRPUSD is developing a prolonged correction (4) in the form of a double zigzag W-X-Y. At the time of writing, the final wave Y is forming as a double zigzag [W]-[X]-[Y]. Within wave [Y], a bearish impulse wave (C) is currently forming. The price is likely correcting within a complex wave 4, made of sub-waves [W]-[X]-[Y]. It is expected to be completed shortly. Afterward, a decline in impulse 5 may start. Consider short positions, targeting the 1.135 low.

ETHUSD is forming a large upward zigzag (A)-(B)-(C). Its first impulse wave (A) has been completed, and a complex correction (B) is currently forming, likely as a triple zigzag W-X-Y-XX-Z. The final actionary wave Z of (B) may end as a zigzag [A]-[B]-[C]. The final part of correction [B] is currently forming. Based on its internal structure, it is likely to take the shape of a triple zigzag (W)-(X)-(Y)-(XX)-(Z). The price will likely rise to the previous high of 2,462.00 within sub-wave (Z).

Buy at 2,292.77, Take Profit: 2,462.00
