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.
I wrote in my previous BTC/USD analysis on 10th July that we had a very pivotal area of resistance close above in the $31k area but also very firm support just below the big round number at $30k. I was looking for a long trade from a bullish bounce at support.
My call was of no consequence, as the price did not get below $30k that day.
Since then, we have seen the $31k area continue to hold as firm resistance, but we have also seen the price continue to rebound from the supportive area below $30k. However, that area of support is starting to come into question as the price persists in moving down. Technically, this short-term downwards price movement is supported by the descending trend line shown in the price chart below, which is arguably becoming a bearish channel. This is likely to continue to move the price down to the nearest support level at $29,424.
It is interesting that while US stocks are taking off, Bitcoin remains unable to break above $31k and stay there – stocks and Bitcoin usually show a positive correlation.
I am still ready to take a long trade today from a bullish bounce at $29,424. However, if the price gets established below that level, it could be very pivotal, and trigger a sharp fall.
There is nothing of high importance scheduled today concerning the US Dollar.
