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
My bullish bias has been proven correct, as the price moves up and breaks above the key level at $6815.36, which is a bullish sign. However, in my analysis yesterday I missed noting that the resistance at that key level is more of a zone that reached up to $6951.34. I would like to see the price get established above that level before turning very strongly bullish. The price may fail here and move down, but any bearish reversal there should look very strong for it to be taken seriously as a short signal.
I remain moderately bullish above $6333, and strongly bullish above $6952.
Regarding the USD, there will be a release of CPI and Retail Sales data at 1:30pm London time, followed by Crude Oil Inventories at 3:30pm.
