Bitcoin Update
The long from the retest of the lows at 12810 on Bitstamp chart has gone quite well overnight as far Eastern buying
helped to drive price back up towards the start of the rout that began 24 hours earlier out of S Korea. We had a likely
upside limit to his trade in the near term at yesterday's high point around 14200 for a rough 1300 point win but it's
stuggling here somewhat under the weight of a new set of parallels that have emerged overnight...likely to unwind some
more in near term - day traders are cashing out at these levels after a 1300 point win from the lows and causing
Bitcoin to flip around at the highs...
Bitcoin is still not home-free from here but it's close to the border line now. We have to see Bitcoin break above the last
high at 14215 to show that we have a real change in trend back to positive from this point - this is the price action we
have to see later today for Bitcoin to stay good for a retest of the highs..until we see this happen we have no real proof that
the trend has changed decisively - this could be another counter rally in a downtrend so far - beating back and
regaining 14215 and holding up on the retest would give us that proof we need that Bitcoin is good for a retest of the
highs from here.
In near term this pattern is one of consolidation - if not day trading and wishing to run this long for the next few days
(hopefully) raise stops to a little under 13780 on Bitstamp for just under 1000 points profit from the low...this still looks OK
but that green streak below us is uncontested so far...can come all the way back to the start again potentially of the
green streak and to the lower parallel before rallying again if 13700 gives way later...we need to see Bitcoin beat the last
rally high yesterday to immediate left of price to show that Bitcoin is definitely changing trend from here - that will
attract more buyers and take price up to 14500 -14656 range which is the area from which the sell off in S Korea began and
the next potential area to look for a consolidation to occur from. And on downside, if we do get a test of the lower
parallel later on that should be another good opportunity to get long again with stops 50 to 100 below the same line.
