BTC/USD H4/D1 charts (1/8/2019)

Description

Good morning, traders. As I spoke about during yesterday's live stream, price made a final move down toward the H1 pivot before this morning's breakout of the flag, stopping just about $14 above it. The target is now $4342 based on the height of the flagpole.

H4 chart:
The aforementioned bull flag target should bring price up to the possible ascending channel's EQ. Just above it is the R2 pivot. The swing high that denotes the upper boundary of the D1 TR's resistance is right above that at $4409.77. I am expecting price to potentially get as high as $4540 before retracing a bit and then pushing higher, however these are areas of significance and could provide resistance for price as it does. That being said, price must first close above the swing high at $4090 before we can even look at price targets.

D1 chart:
RSI broke bullishly out of its symmetrical triangle as price broke out its own symmetrical triangle. Price continues to print similarly to accumulation schematic #2 (accumulation without a Spring) as I outlined a few weeks back in orange. I have outlined the expected movement based on this TR with orange once again. Price following this path would basically be a repeat of its move up from $3100. D1 volume should at least print higher than January 4th's volume which will provide the expanding volume that we need to see. A potentially strong move up may even see it print higher than December 28th's volume. We must remain aware of the diagonal resistance that looms just above price. This is the descending dotted black line and denotes the neckline of the possible IHS that may be printing. The grey price range tool provides the target based on the flagpole of the large flag that price recently broke bullishly out of and the green price range tool provides the target of the IHS if it plays out as such. We need to see volume expanding and the candle spread continuing to print large on the rallies to validate the IHS. Anything else makes that particular pattern suspect, but it does not invalidate the large flag.

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.

@TexasWestCapital - Thank you for your daily posts. I read each one of them and am grateful for your insights. This is a very different movement from the 2015 BTC chart, as you point out regularly. No 2x bounce off the lows with an immediate test of the .618 within a less than 2 week period - a VERY different animal indeed.
