PRICE ACTION
Let’s start with a quote from yesterday’s update:
it will be interesting to see how price reacts @ $80 over the next 24 hours.
Price essentially failed to break through the centre of the ranging channel; and with limited time to recover – demand dried up and pushed price lower. We can see that – like many other charts at the moment – volume was disappointing. This leads to further speculation that this was a sentiment shift rather than a bearish push.
The 52W MA still sits at $65; and there isn’t any major horizontal supports between here and that price. Bulls should be patient and let the process play out – though it is the inherent history of crypto markets that bulls are significantly faster at entering trades in comparison to the more cautious bearish traders.
Look for a temporary recovery movement on the short timeframes (4H and lower); although we may see RSI move slightly lower first.
