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
There is no change in my technical outlook for the BTC/USD pair. Movements still in a tight range and limited until stronger catalysts for a move that supports short and medium-term outlook occurs. The pair's proximity to the support level at $6000 affects bulls, especially with the loss of momentum in the cryptocurrencies market led by the Bitcoin. Bitcoin’s market value is currently stable at around $110 billion.
There is nothing important due today concerning the USD.
