Yesterday’s signals were not triggered, as there was no bearish price action at $6,178 but the earlier long trade from $5,950 would be nice in profit if it had been allowed to run.

    • The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.

    BTC/USD Analysis

    I wrote yesterday that I remained bearish below $6,178 which looked as if it would be the pivotal level for the day. After this area initially held, there was a stronger bullish movement that broke past the resistance later in the New York session. The price has continued to rise, and it seems that $6,171 has been flipped from resistance to become new higher support. However, the advance is slowing at $6,500 which has been an inflective swing high all week. I am unsure as to likely short-term direction here, as although we have some bullish momentum, this entire area between $6,500 and $6,805 looks likely to be difficult to break.
