BTCUSD H4/D1 charts (3/14/2019)

Good morning, traders. The consolidation for Bitcoin continues along an S/R line (H4 dotted red horizontal line) that's been prevalent since December. I have continued to readjust the H4 RSI descending channel to more correctly fit the price movement. At this point, we see RSI nearing a potential break of the channel's resistance as well as having just recently broken the short-term triangle's resistance. However, price remains just under the 21 EMA after having bounced off the bottom of the ascending channel this morning. This has price at the apex of a triangle created by the descending broadening wedge's resistance and ascending channel's support. The daily chart shows a possible ascending wedge printing in red. Based on the height of the wedge, that would signal a target of around $3590 which also is at an S/R level as noted by the blue horizontal line and another HVN.

If further movement to the downside occurs, then I would want to see the February 27th swing low hold at $3658.19. What this means is that I don't want to see a daily close below that. A wick below and close above would print a bullish SFP and signal likely upward price progression once again. If this were to play out, it would be a strong liquidity grab to fuel that price appreciation. Prior to that point, I would want to see the H4 March 8th swing low at $3760.10 hold.

The weekly 200 MA is sitting at $3408 right now, so it is possible to see price fall toward that level as that is also the ascending support of the monthly symmetrical triangle. Furthermore, as I have continued to mention, price is not out of the woods yet so we cannot rule out a flash drop to $2400 either. Interestingly, for channel traders, that would confirm a large ascending channel from the 2013 high to the 2015 low to the 2017 high. This kind of drop would need to just appear as a wick on the weekly chart with a close back above the 200 MA, otherwise we could be in for a much longer correction.

Every day, we have a choice to act positively or negatively, so if you get a chance, do something decent for someone today which could be as simple as sharing a nice word with them. You just might change their day, or even their life.
