What is the next direction for Bitcoin?

The Bitcoin price is consolidating at the bottom of the chart. The price action is forming a bearish flag from the bearish trend which is a continuation pattern. Now if the price rises to form another top but falls to break the lower channel, the downward move will continue along with the prevailing trend. 

This bearish flag pattern will compel Bitcoin to fall and reach a low of $7,300 price level. Nevertheless, if the bulls break the upper channel and price is sustained above $9,000; then our bearish view will be invalidated.
