Yesterday’s signals were not triggered, as there has not been sufficiently bullish price action at either of the support levels which were reached.

  • Short Trades

  • 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 took no directional bias yesterday. This turned out to be a relatively good call, or at least not being as bullish as I was tempted to be by the short-term bullish momentum was a good call. The price has fallen strongly over the past 24 hours, with the key levels flipping easily from support to resistance and the price respecting them. The support at $6,445 is showing initial signs of holding, but the price does not seem quite ready to reverse yet. The direction looks uncertain but there is definitely medium-term and long-term momentum showing.
