After reaching the target bitcoin price continued its bullish price movement. The highest price reached on mid-April. The price was unable to make a new high and a shoulder-head-shoulder formation is obvious from the chart. We can expect a price reversal. The important price is HL level. If a candle in daily chart closes below that level, then we can expect lower levels. There are several imbalance zones and a liquidity zone until $19,600 level.

EURUSD
Weekly analysis
The harmonic pattern within the descending long term channel is unable to reach 0.618 level. Last week bearish MSB was formed on 1H time frame, this week MSB is formed for 4H time frame. These two time frames are important indicator for higher time frame possible shifts. But we should focus on lower time frame charts for possible short entry positions. If the chart goes bearish on 1W time frame, we can expect to reach the eq level of the descending channel, which is around 1.02.
4H analysis
The EURUSD pair generated a MSB at the beginning of May on 1H time frame. It made a BoS but the price was bullish on 4H. We noted a possible market structure break on 4H tie frame and draw a red horizontal line from swing low point. According to our expectation, market made a structure break on 4H time frame. Now we should focus on a short position. The best price to short this pair can be the premium zone located, which is between 1.097 and 1.109.
Hourly analysis
Bearish structure is present in the market on 1H time frame for a long time. Recently, the structure has shifted for 4H time frame. We are on a good position for a reversal on 1H time frame, which will take us to 4H premium zone. The price shown as LH is critical. If a candle closes above that level, then we can think that price made a MSB on 1H time frame and this is a retracement for 4H time frame. In this case the possible price movement is shown with red lines.
