(MENAFN- Daily Forex) My previous BTC/USD signal last Thursday could have produced a profitable long trade from the bullish bounce off $60,765's BTC/USD Signals
Risk 0.75% per trade. Trades may only be taken prior to 5pm Tokyo time Thursday.
Long Trade Ideas
Go long after a bullish price action reversal on the H1 timeframe following the next touch of $61,180, $59,807, or $58,309. Put the stop loss $100 below the local swing low. Move the stop loss to break even once the trade is $100 in profit by price. Take off 50% of the position as profit when the trade is $100 in profit by price and leave the remainder of the position to run.
Short Trade Ideas
Go short after a bearish price action reversal on the H1 timeframe following the next touch of $62,321, $62,664, or $65,722. Put the stop loss $100 above the local swing high. Move the stop loss to break even once the trade is $100 in profit by price. Take off 50% of the position as profit when the trade is $100 in profit by price and leave the remainder of the position to run.
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 in my previous BTC/USD analysis last Thursday that the short-term bearish price channel was pushing the price lower – and the topping out price action near the recent swing high around $65,000 looked bearish too.
This was not an especially accurate or useful call, as although the price continued to move down for a few hours, it found strong support and rose firmly to make a higher high. This then turned into a consolidation pattern, which is what we have seen continue for almost one week now.
Despite this consolidation which suggest we may now see a slow reversal and more bullish price action, zooming out to look at a longer-term price chart still looks bearish due to the recent topping price action.
I think the lows of the recent week just above the big round number at $60,000 look very pivotal. A bearish breakdown below that area could be a great entry trigger for a new short trade.
On the other hand, a bullish breakout beyond $63,400 could produce a much stronger upwards price movement, as the price would then have room to rise all the way to $65,722 without encountering any obvious resistance.
Regarding the US Dollar, there will be release of US CPI , Retail Sales, and Empire State Manufacturing Index data at 1:30pm London time.
