BTC Charts

Trend


Long: Price moves up and indicators move up.

If Fisher is bullish (blue above orange) as well as RVI (green above red) while BTC trades above Middle DC i.e. 20-days EMA. Make sure that the previous trend has been exhausted while the new trend emerges with a volume. Otherwise, market has a tendency to consolidate or move sideways.

Short: Price moves down and indicators move down.

If Fisher is bearish (blue below orange) as well as RVI (green below red) while BTC trades below Middle DC i.e. 20-days EMA. Make sure that the previous trend has been exhausted while the new trend emerges with a volume. Otherwise, market has a tendency to consolidate or move sideways.

Moving Averages

Manually add EMAs (50,100,200).

In a bull market, EMAs are stacked in a normal order (50,100,200) whereas in a bear market EMA are stacked in a reverse order (200, 100, 50).

Strategy: Buy the dip in a bull market (50,100,200), sell the top in a bear market (200, 100, 50).

Volume

Measure the trend strength (increasing volume with price increase & vice versa). If you find any discrepancy between volume & price rise, mark the trend and see if that is a bullish / bearish divergence. Also draw trend lines to locate up-coming breakouts in advance to price breakout.

You should be able to answer:
  1. Is the stock rising on a weak volume?
  2. Is the stock falling on a weak volume?
  3. Is the stock on sideways and volume is rising or falling?

Momentum

Here you want to ensure that the momentum is picking up with the price. If the momentum is negative, i.e. trending down, the price will also follow that. Unless you see a divergence at extreme levels follow the trend.

Tips: 
  1. STAY NETURAL if Daily RSI is between 40-50 even if other indicators instruct to take a position.
  2. KST parameters - Turn them half for early calls.
  3. MACD:  Try to use SMI instead of MACD.

Bitcoin: The Golden Ratio

The price movement of BTC has several highs and lows. Timing the future is often unrealistic and many investors, who don't know math very well, stay away from a technical analysis. Often they totally ignore the power that such analysis may bring. Here is an example of BTC from Dec 2017 to March 2018. BTC is in fact following the golden ratio. If we would have known this before, we would be have been trading more effectively than we did in past. You can recreate such a map in your platform and then trace ahead the expected swings. I would advice to consider 5-10% error always due to news. As soon as this golden rule is broken like 15% error, you don't trade with this. While I am waiting for a breakout at 11.8, I thought to share this idea. Crypto Short

Bitcoin at 6K - Fourth time and again Price-Volume Aren't in Sync

This is the fourth time bitcoin is touching the 6K and has developed a near 5800 bottom. The price had a free-fall from 8500. However, when it came down to the 6K support, it behaved like it is close to a gravitational pull. Instead, it slows down. Take a look at the price and volume actions. Especially, the OBV and PVT. Both hold a key when it comes to the reversal pattern recoginition. When every one is bearish, you need to look at some out-of-box tools or utilities that can help you in defining a position. When we touch the support 4th time, it simply means that the support is weak. However, this doesn't mean that a rally cannot begin. Every one expects the bitcoin to reach 2K so that it comes a good buy. Ask yourself, will you buy it? Most probably not. Here is a capture of some key divergences: Regular Bullish Divergence against RSI OBV - Hidden Bullish Divergence Regular Bullish Divergence against PVT With these divergences in-hand one should think about accumul...

Bitcoin: Eyeing a Reversal Confirmation

Bitcoin is on its way to confirm the reversal pattern. Here are the series of events that happened post the longest bearish trend (50-days long). June 23 was marked as swing zone based on Fibonacci Time Extension. The next day prints a Dragonfly Doji pattern,   which is traditionally a bullish sign. Attempted a panic sell situation but the price couldn't free-fall. Instead, BTC gradually dropped below 6K. Further drop could only put the CMF or volume higher resulting in a strong bullish divergence. This was also notable on the momentum indicators such as RSI. Note that we have not see so many bullish divergences of RSI in case of BTC. We have seen two major bearish divergences near psychological levels (20k, 10k). While the Awesome Oscillator shows twin peaks with some buyers strength. Here is another daily chart with other indicators. Note the swing zone 21 and the follow-up Doji. Conclusion: It is clear that the reversal pattern might b...
