Bitcoin Price Holds: Range In Play

This morning we suggested that - as a result of the action we had seen in the bitcoin price over the weekend - we may finally get some movement during today's European session. Action has now matured, and as it turned out, we have pretty much just ranged sideways between the two levels we had slated as today's ones to watch. As we head into an Asian session this evening, do these levels still hold, and which of our two primary strategies will we be looking to use in order to get in and out of the markets accordingly? Take a quick look at the chart. As you see, 238.44 remains as in term....

So for the past day or so we have been experimenting with a wider than normal range in the bitcoin price, with the goal of bringing our intra range strategy into play. Last night we got some pretty solid upside momentum, and saw this intra range play validated with a profit hit on our long trade during the Asian session. Action has now consolidated somewhat, and for today's session we are looking at bringing our breakout strategy back into play. As such, we are tightening up our range, and looking at some predefined key levels to give us our entry and exit points. Here's what we are....

Here's what we're watching in the bitcoin price on Friday evening, and beyond, into the weekend. We’re about to shut down our analysis for the weekend, but before we do, let’s take one more look at the bitcoin price, in an attempt to set up against any potential volatility that comes this evening and, beyond that, into the weekend. The chart below shows action across pretty much the entire week. As you can see (and ignore the blue highlights for now, these will come into play when we zoom in to the intraday chart shortly) action was pretty volatile at the beginning of the week, declining....

Here's a look at what we are focusing on in the bitcoin price this evening In this morning’s analysis, we noted that the action we have seen in the bitcoin price over the last few weeks has been incredibly volatile. We pointed out that this volatility could make trading difficult going forward, unless price settled down a bit, and consolidated somewhat. We also highlighted the fact that action overnight last night suggested that this consolidation might be just around the corner, and – if it was – we might have an opportunity to take a breather and try and bring our intrarange strategy in....

In our intraday bitcoin trading over the last few weeks, we have outlined our ranges as being pretty tight. However, over the last few days, despite a few swift moves during the Asian sessios, the bitcoin price has remained pretty restricted within a five or six dollars range. As a result, we are going to tighten things up a little bit during this evening session, and try and bring an intra-range strategy into play. With this said, take a look at the chart below, and get an idea of the key levels we are watching as we head into tonight's Asian session. As you see, in term support sits at....
