Bitcoin continues to trace out a consolidation pattern above the long-term uptrend line. I believe this due to a simple price action and volume analysis. Often, keeping it simple works best. Given my analysis, I believe that until proven otherwise this pullback from the all-time highs is just that, a pullback/consolidation. I expect bitcoin to retest and exceed...

BTCUSD is finally looking constructive again. We have broken a downtrend line and made it above resistance in the $9,250 area that was formed from the mid-January lows and early-February mini-consolidation. I think the downtrend and horizontal resistance (green shaded zone) breakout have set us up for at least a retest of $12,000. The $12,000 area will present a...

This morning AMEX:GLD, the U.S. ETF representing the price of Gold, is breaking out of two separate patterns to the upside, indicating both a trend change and a breakout reversal. First, GLD is breaking the downtrend line from the gold bear market that begin in late-2011. This indicates a trend change. Second, GLD is breaking out of a triangle pattern than has...

BITSTAMP:BTCUSD appears to be entering the final leg of its correction that began in December. Price target in the mid-$8,000s. A strong move above $13,000 would invalidate my current outlook and precede higher prices. As this, in my opinion, should be the final leg down during this correction, I will not be taking any short positions. Opening shorts on the...

BITTREX:ETCBTC is now breaking out of what could be termed a loose triangle pattern that was formed as ETCUSD consolidated between November and January during an accumulation phase that occurred just above above its long-term support line. At the same time it is moving back above its 200 day moving average. If we make it above .0033 (confirming the double bottom),...

On December 20th I posted an idea for a long position in AMEX:TBF based on the likelihood of the asset breaking out of its long-term downtrend and short-term wedge pattern. Here is the link to the original idea: Today this breakout is taking place and I am...

There has been a trend in the cryptocurrency space towards the more privacy sensitive coins such as Monero, Dash, and Zcash.

FOREXCOM:EURUSD is breaking out of a bull flag that has been in formation since early August (daily chart on right). This bull flag is part of a larger uptrend that began exactly one year ago, in December 2016. This uptrend was solidified with the breakout from the rectangle base and flag consolidation taking place outside of the base (shown on weekly chart to the...

At the same time, BITTREX:ETHUSDT and BITTREX:LTCUSDT are also breaking...
