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

Yesterday I had no directional bias, but I thought that the price would continue to the lower triangle trend line. The price did not get there yet, instead it advanced a little and broke up past one trend line, although it seems as if it may now be failing at the higher, second trend line (see the price chart below). The action is still evenly balanced between bulls and bears, but I think that the bulls will prevail over the short term, so I prefer long trades off bullish bounces at either of the two supportive trend lines below.
