BTCUSD registered three consecutive winning days this week to overcome its 20- and 50-day moving averages (MA) and enter the Ichimoku cloud. But the bulls seem to be running out of fuel according to the Stochastics which are set for a bearish cross above the 80 overbought mark. The RSI confirms this view, as the indicator looks to be losing steam slightly below its own 70 overbought level. A reversal to the downside could see a retest of the bottom [..]
ETHUSD has performed an extremely bullish action after the bullish gap in the previous day, sending prices towards a fresh five-month high of 148.15 earlier today. The RSI indicator is developing well above the 70 level in the overbought zone, while the MACD oscillator crossed above both the trigger and zero lines in the 4-hour chart. Moreover, the price rise above the 20- and 40-simple moving averages (SMAs), is pointing to more gains. In case of a move higher, immediate resistance is coming from the 148.15 barrier, while a successful jump above [..]
BTCUSD skyrocketed last Friday, jumping above the Ichimoku cloud and the 20- and 40-simple moving averages (SMAs) in the 4-hour chart. Currently, the price is moving sideways, and the technical indicators have turned lower. The RSI indicator is moving down in the positive zone while the stochastic oscillator is approaching the oversold territory. Should the price extend higher, it could find resistance at the 3644 level, before touching the latest high of 3690. Also, an advance above this region would increase speculation that a [..]
ETHUSD is holding marginally below the moving averages in the 4-hour chart, while according to the technical indicators the market seems to be neutral to negative. The RSI is sloping down below the 50 level and the MACD oscillator is flattening above its trigger line but below the zero level. In case of a move lower, the price could challenge the seven-week low of 99.00. This area could be difficult for the bears to overcome initially, but if there is a closing session below it, the price could hit the 89.90 obstacle. [..]
BTCUSD holds slightly below the 20-and 40- simple moving averages (SMAs) in the 4-hour chart as well as below the Tenkan- and Kijun- sen lines, suggesting further negative pressures. The RSI indicator is flattening in the negative zone, while the stochastic oscillator is approaching the oversold zone with strong momentum. Should the price stretch south, immediate support is coming from the six-week low of 3390 barrier, taken from the bottom on Tuesday. A step lower could bring the bearish sentiment back [..]
BTCUSD continues to trade within the 20- and 40-simple moving averages (SMAs) in the 4-hour chart, indicating flat movement. The sideways action is also supported by the horizontal Tenkan-sen line. However, momentum signals seem to be slightly bullish as the blue Kijun sen line remains below price action and the light green Chikou span is ready for a bullish crossover with price. The RSI is trying to jump above 50 level, while the MACD oscillator holds above trigger line. Should the [..]
The cryptocurrency complex had a horrendous run in 2018, with most major coins collapsing following their meteoric rise in the prior year, as the “euphoria” faded and in the midst of greater regulatory scrutiny. Alas, considering that several key issues remain unresolved – ranging from security and regulation concerns to illiquidity – it’s difficult to envision any major reversal in the fortunes of digital coins in the foreseeable future. To say that the cryptocurrency market performed dreadfully in 2018 would [..]
ETHUSD is slowing down below the moving averages in the 4-hour chart, while according to the technical indicators the market seems to be neutral. The RSI keeps developing below 50 with weak momentum and the MACD oscillator is flattening above its trigger line but below the zero level. In case of a move lower, the price could challenge the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the negative movement from 221 to 80, around 113.10. This area could be difficult for the bears to overcome initially, but if there is a [..]
BTCUSD has been recording marginally flat candles over the last sessions in the 4-hour chart, after the advance above the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the downleg from 6508 to 3116.50, around the 3916 support. The price holds above the 20- and 40-simple moving averages (SMAs), while the RSI indicator is flattening above the neutral level. Moreover, the MACD oscillator is losing momentum near the zero line. If the price strengthens momentum to the upside, the next immediate resistance to have in mind is [..]
BTCUSD has been moving sideways after it found strong support at the 3116.15 barrier on December 14. The price holds within the 20- and 40-simple moving averages (SMAs) in the 4-hour chart, while the RSI indicator stands around the neutral level and is pointing slightly up. Moreover, the MACD oscillator is losing momentum near the zero line. Resistance could occur around the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the downleg from 6508 to 3116.15 of 3912.40. Slightly above this area, the [..]
