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
The price fell below the support level at $4218.50 and has risen firmly ever since, although not very strongly. Recent hours have seen some selling, but it is nothing unusual that breaks the bullish pattern. My recent bullish bias has proved to be correct and there is no reason not to stay bullish. Technically, the price remains with a clear medium-term bullish channel. A new support level has been printed at $4410.92, which is another bullish sign. I keep a firm bullish bias for now, and see no obvious resistance as likely before the $4750.00 area.
There is nothing significant due today concerning the USD. It is a public holiday in the U.S.A.
