  • 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 it looked likely that $6,367 would be the day’s pivotal level, and if the price could not break below here over the next few hours, it was likely to rise, although it might be a struggle as there has been quite a lot of selling lately. This wasn’t a bad call, although the price was able to break the level a little before quickly rising again, though as expected, it was not able to rise by very much.

    The technical picture has not changed much, I have just moved the nearest support don a little to $6,353 and drawn new lower resistance at $6,479. The short-term direction looks weakly bullish but over the medium-term, it is impossible to make a good call here. I think the most exciting levels are far away: the support at $6,171 and the resistance at $6,643.
