– Why he focuses on ICOs and how he manages his risk

Bitcoin Price Forecast

The BTC/USD pas remained below the daily Ichimoku cloud. It now appears to have bottomed out just above the key support level of $6,406.

The pair may even be in the process of forming a Double Bottom bullish reversal chart pattern.

However, the bearish momentum still appears to be strong. A break below this key support level could open doors to further declines. Could Bitcoin reach the $4,000 again?

What do you think about Ian Balina and his controversial background? Do you think he’s a scammer out there to get people? Or do you think he truly has the best interest of people in mind?
