MARKET OVERVIEW
  • Price Action: Bitcoin has been continuously rejected from the 200MAs, giving us profitable short trades.
  • Patterns: Channel.
  • Areas of Interest: The area(s) of interest for us are the 200MAs @ $31.3K and the lows @ $29.2K. Once price reaches one of our areas of interest and gives us a valid entry signal, I will update the trade, so make sure you follow me to get the trade entry signals in real time.

TRADE SETUPS
Below are the potential trade setups that I would be interested in trading. Regardless of the path that the price takes, I will be monitoring the market for a valid trade entry signal.

Long Trade Setup #1: False Breakdown
To open a long position, we are waiting for price to break above the horizontal support and then recover.
1. Price Action: Price breaks below the then rapidly climbs above $29.2K, forming a bear trap
2. Trade Entry Confirmations: A breakdown candlestick  followed by a reclaiming candlestick, above average volume on both breakdown candle and reclaiming candle, MACD bottoming

Short Trade Setup #1: Retest and Continuation (200MAs)
To open a short position, we are waiting for price to retrace back up to test the 200MAs and then continue moving down.
1. Price Action: Price needs to move back up to the 200MAs, currently projected to be @ $31.3K by the time price reaches it, and bounce back up.
2. Trade Entry Confirmations: Bearish candlestick pattern, above average volume, MACD topping out

Both eth and btc testing 200MAs. Let’s see if we finally can break the bearish trend or we get another entry to go short. Stayed tuned as entry could be within the hour or less. Potentially.
