Have we all been looking at the wrong BTC chart?

Updated
A glimmer of home in these bearish times. Whilst the bounce in late October came off the 200 weekly moving average in the BTCUSD charts, once we switch to the CME Bitcoin Futures chart (who promised to "tame" Bitcoin) it takes a different significance - with a direct bounce off the 200 daily moving average. All CME gaps (due to large weekend BTCUSD price movement being missed by CME when it is not open) eventually get filled, so do not underestimate the influence of CME Futures on BTC price movement. Incidentally, CME Bitcoin Futures still has a gap at $11695-11795 and history would dictate that one way or another we will revisit that area - even if only in a CME wick spiking up.

  • The CME daily 200MA is exactly where we struggled during the spring bull run, exactly where we found strong support in October, and it just happens to be exactly where we are right now.

  • Whilst most other technical analysis would suggest we are going to $6750 (then further down into the $5-6k range), if the CME daily 200MA holds it could well prove to be the support and excellent entry point of the next bullish move. Keep an eye on it.
