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 picture still looked bullish, but a little less so. I would remain cautiously bullish if the price holds above $3,830 but it looked like we are going to need a deeper pullback, perhaps to that level, before the price would resume its rise. This was a good call as the price has edged up very lightly over the past 24 hours but little has happened, My analysis from yesterday still applies: we will probably need a deeper pull-back before the price can continue its rise, so I would only take a bullish bias if we get a retracement to the support at $3,830 and a firm bullish bounce there.
