COIN (Update) -- Potential Max Price TargetHello Traders! Coin seems to potentially have a little bit more steam left. If it does make one more push... where will price go? At $429.54 we have the All Time High for COIN.. interesting enough that price was hit on the first day of trading for COIN which adds to the significance of this price level. There is also a trendline connected from pivot to pivot. These two factors converge and create a significant level of resistance. Most likely I will be entering a short position at this level.

And what hint might that be you ask... 1) Trendline (connecting the recent highs) 2) Gap Fill (Resistance) Individually these factors are relatively strong, however when combined they essesntially create a strong barrier that will be very hard for price to break through. Think about it like a wall made from Captain Americas shield... now try and break through that.. aint gonna be easy. So whats next for price? If I was a betting man (and I am, incase you were wondering) I would say theres a high probability that price is going to trade down from this resistance level then retrace to the gap fill below. From the gap fill level we will likely see a bounce. Thanks, I hope you found this post educational or helpful and best of luck on your trading journey!

Of course we cant know for sure what price will do, however you can take clues and combine them to give you a high probability reading of the chart. Here are the clues: 1) MAJOR TRENDLINE 2) TRENDLINE 3) BEARISH DIVERGENCE 4) BULL FLAG MEASURED MOVE When we combine these clues, a very bearish picture is painted... This signals to me that there is a high probability price will likely reverse and trade to the downside in the near future.
