Bitcoin Price Choppy: Scalps on Tonight
Its been a bit of an odd day in the bitcoin price markets. Having initially kicked off the European session with some interim gains, the bitcoin price reversed pretty sharply from intraday highs and collapsed to reach lows just shy of where things currently sit. This has two implications for tonight's session. The first, that we have a nicely defined intraday range that gives us something solid to trade throughout Asia. The second, that in spite of this range, its going to be difficult to form a central bias - at least near term. Without any consistency in overarching momentum, we are....

Here's a look at action from the day so far, and the levels we are looking at now in the bitcoin price. It’s been about six hours since published the first of our two, Tuesday session intraday analyses, and a look at action across the period reveals some pretty frustrating movement in the bitcoin price. We managed to get into a trade on a break of in term support, but having bounced around this level for a few hours post entry, have since been taken out for a small loss on the position. This sort of choppy action can be difficult to approach, and it generally comes down to two things: the....
Here's a look at what we are focusing on in the bitcoin price this evening. So the session is about to draw to a close out of Europe, and it’s time to take the second of our twice daily looks at the bitcoin price in an attempt to see if we can draw a profit from the markets at some point during this evening’s session. Things have been pretty dull over the last few weeks, but volume is finally starting to pick up, and we are starting to see some decent breakouts and – in turn – a number of opportunities to get in and out of the markets according to the rules of our intraday breakout scalp....
Here's what we are looking at in the bitcoin price this evening, breakout and intrarange. It’s been a pretty slow day in the bitcoin price space, and this has weighed on our ability to get into the markets. We had a pretty volatile end to last week, and some decent action over the weekend allowed us to draw some profit from a few positions, but the current action looks to be representative of the start of the week slumps we’ve seen across the last couple of months – range bound, no real breakouts, and when we do see a breakout, it doesn’t result in any sort of sustained momentum we can....
In this morning's Bitcoin price watch article, we noted that-as a result of the recent selloff-we would be wary heading into today's action. The Bitcoin price collapsed last night, likely not as the result of any underlying fundamental pressure but simply on the back of individual speculators taking profits at weekly highs. Regardless of the reason, however, we were uncertain how long the selloff would last. Whether the correction seen earlier this afternoon was just a gap-filler, or whether it was indeed a longer-term correction was the primary question. Whichever way the bitcoin price....
Earlier on this morning, we published the first of our twice daily bitcoin price watch analysis. In the piece, we suggested that - as a result of the width of our predefined range - we would bring both our intrarange and our standard breakout strategy in to play. Action has now matured to the close of the European session, and we are about to head into Friday evening a a fresh Asian session. Many of the markets for the more traditional financial assets close over thanksgiving and the weekend, but not bitcoin. This means we can get our strategy in line for the weekend, and attempt to pull a....
