Bitcoin Analysis
- Weekly Chart: The super trend indicator remains green, indicating a larger bull market. However, the massive bearish divergence continues, suggesting potential weakness in the coming weeks or months.
- Daily Chart: Bitcoin is holding above a crucial support area, roughly between $99,000 and $100,000. The price is currently showing bearish signals.
- 6-Hour Chart: Bitcoin is in a short-term sideways price range between support at $100,000 and resistance at $106,000 - $107,000.
- 4-Hour Chart: The cup and handle pattern formation has been invalidated due to the recent price drop. A possible double bottom or W pattern could set up a bullish target, but a breakout above $106,000 - $107,000 is needed to confirm the pattern.
- Trading Strategy: Josh closed his Gridbot trading strategy at break even, anticipating further choppy sideways price action or a potential pullback. He plans to re-enter a Gridbot strategy, potentially at a better entry point, and encourages viewers to set up accounts on Pinex to copy his Gridbot strategies using the link below the video.
- Liquidation Heatmap: A level of liquidity is building at roughly $107.5K. Another area of liquidity is building at around $98.4K - $98.5K.
Altcoins Analysis
- Bitcoin Dominance: Neutral in the short term.
- Ethereum: In a shorter-term sideways price range, bouncing between support and resistance. Support is at $3,050 and $3,250. Resistance is at $3,650 - $3,660. The daily RSI shows an oversold signal, suggesting a potential relief or break from the bearish trend. A key point is to hold the support area to start forming a new bullish price structure. A breakout above $3,700 would start forming some new bullish price structure.
- Solana: Similar situation to Bitcoin. In a larger bearish trend but currently in a short-term sideways price range. Support is between $143 and $147, and resistance is at $170. Josh expects the price to remain rangebound in the short term.
- XRP: Still playing out the bearish divergence on the weekly time frame. Has an active bullish divergence on the daily chart and is holding and bouncing from an important support area between $2.30 and $2.40. Resistance is between $2.60 and $2.70.
- Chainlink: Similar situation as XRP. Still in a larger bearish trend, forming lower highs, lower lows and currently playing out a somewhat shorter term bullish divergence on the daily time frame. Support is around $15.20 to $15.70. Resistance is at $16.60, $17.50, and major resistance between $19 and $20. Expecting a bit of choppy sideways price action in the short term.
Trading Opportunities and Strategies
- Gridbot Trading: Josh closed his existing Gridbot strategy at break even and anticipates a potential re-entry. The expectation is that the market will remain in a sideways price range. He is encouraging viewers to set up on Pinex to take advantage of the grid bots.
- Bitcoin Breakout: Josh is waiting for a breakout on BTC above the $106,000 - $107,000 resistance level to confirm a bullish move or a double bottom / W pattern.
- Altcoins: Josh indicates that the altcoins are following the general trend of Bitcoin. If Bitcoin continues its sideways price action, the altcoins will likely do the same. If Bitcoin breaks out, the altcoins might breakout as well.
Summary of Changes and Trends
The overall market sentiment remains cautious, with a continued emphasis on the bearish divergence on the weekly Bitcoin chart. The key change from the previous analysis is the invalidation of the cup and handle pattern on the 4-hour chart. Josh is now watching for a potential double bottom pattern. The short-term focus remains on sideways price action and range-bound trading, making Gridbot strategies relevant. Josh closed his Gridbot trading strategy, with the anticipation of re-entering the market again. The analysis suggests that the market could be in a period of consolidation before a potential breakout or further decline. The altcoins are expected to follow Bitcoin's lead, with similar sideways or range-bound price action.
Potential Next Steps and Trading Strategies
Based on the analysis, the following strategies could be considered:
- Re-enter a Gridbot strategy: The likelihood of choppy sideways price action makes Gridbot strategies potentially profitable. Pinex is suggested for these bots.
- Watch for Bitcoin Breakout: If Bitcoin breaks above $106,000 - $107,000, consider entering long positions.
- Altcoin entries: Although Josh does not explicitly mention it, if Bitcoin starts a bullish movement and altcoins are still lagging, there is a trading opportunity to buy long on selected altcoins that are showing bullish divergences or are bouncing from support levels.
