Bitcoin 4hr timeframe: Real time update and commentary 

Bitcoin / DollarBitfinex

Description

The previous analysis of BTCUSD identified the bullish price channel that resulted from the head and shoulders bottom pattern. Besides, the bottom of the channel coinciding with support between ~$7,554.80 and $7,296.60 was identified as the next likely target for BTCUSD after it reached the top of the bullish price channel at ~$8,260.

BTCUSD as updated in this post did break below support, tracing out a bearish price channel to about $5,975.30.
A breakout of the bearish channel as indicated on the chart at ~$6,213.10 does indicate a bullish upside potential for BTCUSD.

Resistance is expected between ~$7,313.20 and $6,850.50 (neckline of the previous head and shoulders bottom pattern).Confirmation of bullish momentum coupled with a break out above $7,313.20 is considered a safe (conservative) point for establishing a long (buy) position(s). The safest entry (most conservative) into a long (buy) position is on a price close above the high of ~$8506.70 on July 24, 2018.

@thedarklord369, that is interesting to be able to apply news to your trading especially if you know how to properly give weight to news been released. I however do not have strength in news analysis which is why what we provide for clients is strictly technical analysis with advanced strategies to make a profit; long or short. Thanks and have a great day
