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 very evenly balanced, so it was probably still worth avoiding trading this pair today. I had no directional bias and there was no trend.
There is no real change. The price popped down yesterday to invalidate the nearest support level but quickly recovered to get back into its recent consolidation zone where it seems to be consolidating. The next move is anyone’s guess and impossible to predict. It is probably best to avoid trading Bitcoin right now.
Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Advance GDP data at 1:30pm London time.
