Bitcoin Price Advance Pauses
Bitcoin price corrected downward earlier today as an apparent attempt at advance was slammed down by strong selling across the exchanges. Profit taking or is it reversal? The strong RSI reverse divergence pointed out in yesterday’s analysis (magenta annotations) was exacerbated by additional downward price correction and, yet, price failed to push to a new high after two attempts. Ongoing sideways correction at the current level is, therefore, the outlook. Today’s second attempt at advancing above $584 (Bitfinex) was slammed down below the 1hr 20MA (at the green arrow). With MACD....

Bitcoin price trend remains up. Advance should retake $630 in the coming days, but a correction may precede a push higher. Price continues pushing higher above its 200-period moving average in the 4hour candle chart (red). The chart is primarily bullish since we see the stochastics rising from oversold (magenta circle, top-right), but an ambiguous indication warns of potential downside as they’re flashing a red divergence dot. This represents a downside risk that traders should be prepared for: price may correct down to the 200MA near $587 before resuming advance. If price can push above....
Bitcoin price achieved $450 (Bitstamp) and 2900 CNY (BTCC) overnight. Since then price has entered a pullback that appears incomplete at the time of writing. A strange advance that is not yet surging above the long-term resistance it has just broken (grey trendline). The expectation was that the slow push higher would turn parabolic on the successful push through resistance at $430 (Bitstamp).

Bitcoin price made a full retracement of the week’s advance and seems to be finding support at the base of the prior advance. By late yesterday, price had returned to the level from which this week’s advance had launched. Just prior to this report, the market again again tested this level at 2500 CNY and $380 ($375 in some exchange charts). Without acting on such anticipation, we might see a reversal here – back to a temporary advance and later returning to this very same level being established as a new support floor near $380 and 2500 CNY. The price pattern is reminiscent of a similar....
Bitcoin price continues correcting as the prospect of advance dawns on the market. The general hesitancy to join trend is understandable given this chart’s perverse tendency to fake-out on apparent trending moves. The melodrama of decline in the Chinese exchanges has proven to be just that – every time. They cannot sell lower because there is nothing for the bears down there. The potential reversal at $630 looms but seems less likely as 1day MACD crosses above its zero line at the time of writing. Yet, the situation remains: price advance is constrained by the $630 level and the MACD....
