BTCUSD [REVISED] - 30% Cyclical Short Trade? Be Conservative Short

Bitcoin / U.S. dollarBitstamp

Description

Looking at the chart we can see bitcoin struggling to get above the EMA200 level on the 4HR chart and a long-term trendline (highlighted purple). With the cyclical trade to the downside (EMA50 below the EMA200) but price action seemingly bullish , this will put off many professional traders from entering a long trade at this level. Instead, we can look to short this market given a rejection at the EMA200 and a breakdown of the fibo level at $3918. In the case of a rejection, watch for bounce between $3400-3600 level. This idea become partially invalidated with price action closing a daily candle above $4260.34.

Previously we explored an idea for the falling wedge pattern and its possible break to the downside. This invalidated idea can be found here:

Here's the consolidation candle...

Comment

Still consolidating... and we are still within our trading plan. However!! We are now trading above the EMA200 on the 4HR which could offer an opportunity to the bulls to continue the Santa rally.


On the daily there's plenty of resistance above so going long is not a good idea


As for the mcap 1W we can see the same picture as the bitcoin daily

Comment

Testing the EMAs again!




Comment

Watch for H&S pattern... its a 50/50 chance at this point.


Comment

Watch for EMA200 rejection on the 4HR...

Comment

Still bearish on the daily


Back in the shorting zone on the 4HR.

Comment

YES!!!!

Comment

We have a megaphone pattern and price needs to snap those fibo supports to get below that daily low.

Comment

We have a reversal formation on the daily now, so we should expect a reversal and get out of shorts until the consolidation gets us a bit higher
