Good morning, traders. Not a lot has happened over the past couple of days. We appear to be watching price move sideways. However, if we take a closer look, we can see price making higher lows toward resistance at $3900. This is creating a possible ascending triangle which should have price targeting $3988-$4005 upon a successful breach and follow-through. I had...
Good morning, traders. I have been looking for something new to point out since yesterday but haven't really found much. Price has been consolidating at the upper end of the move up from yesterday. The dark black horizontal channel gives you the local TR. A close above the top of that TR should provide the target shown which is the EQ of the upper supply zone at...
At present, BTC has gone through the first wave of rise and entered the horizontal consolidation stage. If it does not break below the trend line below, there is still a chance to rush higher in theory. For the fund that was shorted yesterday, it can be considered to make a short term, but please do a good job in risk control. Standard of entry: zigzag line Stop...
Good morning, traders. The bullish divergence I mentioned yesterday is playing out nicely today as price has made a good $100+ move up this morning with the daily candle currently engulfing the previous four days' candles and sitting above the daily pivot and 21 EMA. This has many of the smaller TFs overbought at this time with the H4 RSI not quite there yet, so...
Bitcoin (XBTUSD) had a fake breakdown, which only assists us in buying more for our active LONG XBT trade. Bitcoin breaking down is bad because we are at an important phase for Bitcoin and we saw one recently that we can now say was completely fake. A fake breakdown, or bears/sellers rejection, is a perfect bullish signal. Bear trap, shakeout, whatever you...
Good morning, traders. I'm finally back, after having moved last week, and Bitcoin has basically done nothing other than initially hitting my first upper target, followed by my lower target, that was published last Monday. Since then, it has moved sideways. Last night saw a bit of a move down, but price has remained within the local TR and now the H1 and H4 TFs...
Good morning, traders. Bitcoin made a strong move this weekend. Make no mistake, it's been tough as there has been significant resistance, but price has moved up in spite of that and is now sitting just above the two month long descending channel resistance. In making this move, price has pushed beyond the green price target from last week and is above the daily...
Good morning, traders. Price is attempting to push its way through the descending wedge's resistance as H4 RSI is pushing through its own resistance. H4 MACD is curled up and nearing a bullish cross above centerline. As we can see, the green target, which is based on the height of the wedge, is near the previous swing high. Traders need to be cautious as price...
Good morning, traders. Price continues to consolidate within a flag/descending wedge. The target based on the height of the wedge remains, as it was yesterday, the ascending red "neckline" of the possible IHS. But, as I mentioned previously, we need to see increasing candle spread and expanding volume as the right shoulder is completed and price pushes through the...
Good morning, traders. Price hit the red target yesterday and was $20 shy of the pink target. Other than that, it has continued to move sideways within a possible flag. However, generally, the longer this is drawn out the less bullish it is. That being said, there was a 9% drop in Bitfinex short interest in just over an hour earlier this morning prior to the U.S....
Good morning, traders. Price has continued within the flag and bounced off the 38.2% retracement on the D1 chart as I mentioned I was watching for yesterday. H1 is printing a short-term double bottom with a target of $3620, once price closes above the swing high of $3586 which would confirm it. H1 RSI is just under neutral at 47.3 and butting up against...
Good morning, traders. Demand continued to flow into the pair over the weekend with supply attempting to assert itself yesterday. Up looks much more likely than down, in the near term at least. The D1 chart shows price sitting on the daily pivot after being rejected around the 50% retracement of the December 15th low to the December 24th high, but we could see it...
Good morning, traders. Price action just got interesting this morning. H4 and D1 RSI are breaking bullishly through their resistance and volume has picked up noticeably. As a matter of fact, H4 RSI is now bullish at 56. Obviously we need to see follow through, and there is still another 2 hours left in this current candle, but volume is already nearing the same...
Good morning, traders. After the recent drop and immediate reversal price has continued to move sideways adding to traders' already pessimistic attitudes and boredom. But don't let the market lull you to sleep. These are precisely the times traders need to be extremely aware of what's going on as sudden moves often do happen and catch sleeping traders off guard....
Good morning, traders. Overnight saw Bitcoin finally falling through the bottom of the ascending channel. As I have been warning, failure of follow through on a break through resistance will likely result in price continuing to head lower. That strength into the end of the daily candle yesterday printed a bullish cross on the MACD which has since turned into a...
Good morning, traders. The big news yesterday was potential proof that the Mt. Gox trustee was selling Bitcoin on the BitPoint exchange, rather than OTC, through the first half of 2018 (www.goxdox.com). If so, it could help us understand why price failed to rally strongly enough off the $6000 level and ultimately fell through, after that level supported price for...
Good morning, traders. Bitcoin continues to trade sideways with no significant increase in visible supply or demand on the order books. While Bitmex has continued to show stronger supply, spot exchanges are showing stronger demand. Traders should consider both but give more credence to spot exchanges as Bitmex's swap system and 100x leverage draw to it the...
The Gann fan can be a powerful tool, here is a super simple introduction on how to use it. Use the angle tool to draw a 45 degree angle, ideally from a local low to a local top or visa versa, go to your chart settings and lock the price/bar ratio so that when you zoom in and out the aspect ratio stays the same and so to does the 45 degree angle. Draw the GANN...
