Today’s BTC/USD Signals
Long Trade Idea
- Long entry between $109,907 and $110,621, the lower and upper bands of a small horizontal support zone that support more upside.

Short Trade Idea
- Short entry if price action breaks down below $109,407, $500 below the lower band of its horizontal support zone.
- Place your stop-loss level $200 above your entry level.
- Adjust the stop-loss to break even once the trade is $500 in profit.

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.

So, why am I bullish on BTC/USD following its breakout sequence?
I expected a breakout in BTC/USD yesterday, and Bitcoin delivered. It crushed its descending 38.2% Fibonacci Retracement Fan level and pushed past its 50.0% Fibonacci Retracement Fan level. I noted a potential continuation of the breakout sequence into 111,105, the intra-day high before a reversal, as the next target, and I believe we can reach it as soon as today. A breakout above the descending 61.8% Fibonacci Retracement Fan level should push prices higher.
Trading volumes have increased during the breakout sequence, and the Bull Bear Power Indicator has been in bullish territory for nine hours. I expect volatility to increase as bulls and bears wrestle for control at a crucial resistance level.
A potential flag chart pattern is forming, a bullish continuation pattern, which could lead to a spike in price action following a breakout. Crypto traders should get $500 to $750 from this long position, but it could magnify with a breakout above the 61.8% Fibonacci Retracement Fan.
