Following the Long trade off Support at 10.92 and the close at the target of 15.79 Ethereum is now range bound. We could see tests of the Support and Resistance here over the next few days. There are no timing elements on the Daily for a few days. Despite all of this bad news and strong retracements the trend on the Weekly remains bullish. The hold of support...
Since 2012 when altcoins came on the scene I have always been very bearish. One of my catch phrases related to Litecoin is that my long term target has been, is, and will always be $0.00. Ethereum has been talked up to me by other traders and I've kept an eye on it for a few months now. I've rendered one-on-one advice here and there what the charts tell me and...
The next supports are 611 and 571 following up on the top call of 780 earlier in the week. These are WEAK supports though. Volatility could kick in to break them.
Following the mid-March timing for breaking the consolidation BTCUSD has now reached it's top for now... unless some crazy shenanigans are going on.
As of writing and according to www.bitcoinblockhalf.com there are 54 days until Bitcoin rewards are cut in half for the second time in it's storied history. Many speculate that a reduction in supply entering the market must logically lead to The Moon! the day after. A better approach to the analysis would be to assess the true tenor of the supply conditions...
This week represents the end of a timing element that has held Bitcoin within a several month long consolidation following the big pop in November. Despite the bearish influences of the Weekly timeframe Bitcoin has held it's ground in this long duration consolidation. Now that influence is about to be removed at a time and price where the weekly Chikou momentum...
Bitcoin continues to consolidate bearishly on the Daily despite the pop today. Now price is setting up to find resistance at the Daily at 408.75 which is close to the Weekly Resistance. The timing for this hit should be on or around the middle of February. Ultimately the story remains the same on the Weekly with timing setting up to take price slowly bearish...
Following up on the last forecast Bitcoin came down to the "Do or Die" support. The gains from the bubble are erased but have not been completely reversed. Price did a hard bounce off the level and has managed to close above it once again. We have yet to establish a short term Ichimoku support or higher pivot to justify going long on Bitstamp charts but...
Bitcoin starts this week at a major support on the Weekly Kijun Sen at $265. Price has a possibility of holding here and then making a journey into the cloud where there is a high probability it will hit the Weekly Senkou B Resistance at $405. However, the $265 level is NOT a multi-timeframe support. The Daily is still in a Bullish Ichimoku Wave pattern. The...
Last week's long entry off support of 228.75 continues with a target to 260. I have locked in profit as price makes its journey through the Daily cloud. The Weekly resistances have started to move down. Over the next two weeks price's action around the 260 level will determine the longer term trend.
After closing part of my shorts at the pivot low of last week the remainder were closed upon the cross of the Daily Kijun Sen. I am now expecting a pullback to support around 229 looking for a matching level on the swing trading timeframes (240/120 minute). Upon holding support price should then retrace back into the Daily cloud to resistance at 260.
Last week I chose to show the 120m timeframe as it best captured the consolidation we were in for that week. I projected a breakout on Wednesday to $240 which is essentially a pullback on the Daily timeframe to the Ichimoku Kijun Sen (26 period Mean). Unfortunately for my forecast I was just 24 hours off and for my actual trading was $1 off my entry to add to my...
This week I have chose the 120 minute (2h) Swing Trading timeframe to illustrate the weekly forecast because it best captures the current consolidation. All Rules for an Ichimoku trend remain true for a bearish trend on the Daily so the highest probability trades will remain shorts. I am expecting the Swing timeframe consolidation to continue through the early...
Such a low volume market such as LTCUSD serves as an example of why you must set conservative limit orders. What likely happened is a selloff triggered a cascade of stops clearing out the thin order book down to a single large BUY Limit order in the book at support. As it was so swift the exchange filled the order with the available liquidity. The only orders...
All Ichimoku indicators pointing to bearish. Price is hanging around pivot supports in the past. Psychologically, many stops are below these supports on Exchanges. A minor selloff at this point would trigger a chain reaction to the downside.
Price failed to get above the 270 resistance in the time allotted. We are now heading back to 240 to break lower. Longs are closed. Now looking short. if breaks the 240 support.
Price is continuing it's bullish path and probability is high to break the 270 resistance. Price should then continue to the 320 resistance over the next weeks.
I'm going to start doing these at the beginning of the week rather than the weekend as weekends are typically low in volume/volatility. Ergo, there is no point in trying to place trades over weekends. Last week yielded a $30 move to the downside off resistance I found during the prior weekend forecast. The timing on the Daily, 4h, and 2h timeframes were near...
