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...
Let's go BULL. Where are you? Falling wedge with a fakeout? BULL TRAP IS COMING!
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...
One of the first things to know about rising and falling wedge patterns, is that they’re a great indicator of an upcoming reversal. Much the same as other wedge patterns, they’re formed by a consolidation period representing either distribution or accumulation. While both rising and falling wedges can form over a period of any length, typically the longer the...

Today's post is going to be a quick one but it is important. I think that understanding support and resistance levels is one of the most important things you can do as an investor. They are key indicators of market movement and they can be used in so many different scenarios. The biggest issue is that people use them incorrectly! I posted the other day talking...

VANGUARD S&P 500 ETF - BEARISH ASCENDING WEDGE Pattern already closed in April 2018
The ascending wedge is a pattern in price action that has an uptrend with higher lows and higher highs, however the lines that connect the lows and the highs are tightening. This usually suggests that bull strength is running out, as every rally running toward the resistance is shorter lasting and moves less in terms of price action. Ascending wedges can break to...
