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 the situation looked more bearish still now, with the price reaching yet lower 1-year lows. I took a bearish bias below $4,982 and this worked out very well as the price has continued to fall sharply to even lower 1-year lows close to $4,000. The price of Bitcoin has now fallen by almost 80% since December, and I notice my twitter feed has a lot less tweets from people claiming Bitcoin is about to change the world! There is no reason not to be bearish, but watch out for the support at $4,137.
There is nothing important due today regarding the USD.
