Not only is ETHUSD’s price action currently above the neckline(tan trendline) of a descending inverse head and shoulder. It’s also above the neckline of 2 different double bottom patterns. (Green and yellow horizontal trendlines). The right shoulder of the inverse head and shoulder pattern is actually also a valid double bottom pattern on the 4hr timefram(daily time frame shown here instead of 4hr). Also, The head of the inverse head and shoulder and the right shoulder combined also create somewhat of an Adam and Eve double bottom, similar to the one playing out currently on cardano. We are only just now having price action poke its head above the inv h&s neckline though and since, as is usually the case, patterns rarely trigger their breakout on the first break of the neckline we could still see price action retrace below this neckline before the real breakout occurs. There’s always a chance this is the real breakout too though so the best thing to watch for on the initial neckline break is whether or not we getting any sort of major bullish impulse in the volume to help confirm an official breakout. I cou;d see a breakout fakeout going as high as to test the 200ma then get rejected and fall back below the neckline, before it finally has the break break above it. So we must remain vigilant. In the long run i think these patterns will confirm their bullish breakout eventually but am not yet sold on the current 1 day candle being the breakout candle just yet.
Comment:
Just realized i started the dotted green measured line lower than I should have. It should be started right on the green horizontal, and should thus be a higher target of around 44k.
