Yesterday’s signals may have produced a long trade off the support at $6,353 which is in profit, but I do not feel confident about it.

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
I wrote yesterday that after a huge spike like this it was probably best to stay away, although a long trade from a bounce at the new higher support of $6,353 might be interesting.
This was a pretty good call as we did get a very quiet long trade entry at $6,353 but the price looks only as if it is going to calm now, although I may be wrong. So, I take the same analysis today, thinking that the price here looks likely to consolidate after such a massive price spike which essentially went nowhere yesterday.
Still, due to the slightly bullish action plus the fact that the support at $6,353 held, I take a slightly bullish bias here above $6,353.
There is nothing important due today concerning the USD.
