Bitcoin is currently caught within a consolidation phase following its intense decline from highs of $11,200 last week.

This US Dollar Fractal Predicts Bitcoin Is on the Verge of a Strong Surge
The common narrative shared over recent months is that Bitcoin is adversely affected by increases in the value of the U.S. dollar. Case in point: when the dollar began to spike in February and March, BTC began to tumble lower, as did the S&P 500 and the price of gold.

Bitcoin has somewhat flatlined as the U.S. Dollar…
