Bitcoin price has just exceeded $360 less than an hour, before writing this article. As last week’s bullish wave continues to build up, the 2 and 4 hourly charts continue to print higher highs. As I looked through the 1 -2 hourly charts and the 1 day charts, I detected a few signs signaling continuation of this new uptrend, especially, that the price will not face any significant resistance all the way up to $416.
Key Resistance Points:
Let’s take a look at the 1 day (BTC/USD) charts from Bitstamp and plot the 20, 50 and 100 EMAs (look at the below chart) . We can conclude the following:
- To better visualize support and resistance levels at this point, we shall plot a Fibonacci retracement between the high recorded in May 2014 ($680) and the low recorded in January 2015 ($159.5). Accordingly, we can see that now BTC price has breached the resistance level at $353.5, which corresponds to the 0.382 Fib retracement level, and it won’t face any significant resistance except at $416.07, which corresponds to the 0.5 Fib retracement level.
- Entering a long trade at around $350 with a take profit near $415 and stop loss at around $380 can be highly profitable now and has a low risk/reward ratio.
By studying the 1 hour (BTC/USD) charts from Bitstamp (look at the below chart) and plotting the 20, 50 and 100 period EMAs, we can conclude the following:
- Since the bullish wave has started last week, the one hour charts have formed a “Three Drivers Pattern” as shown by the 3 violet pyramids on the below chart; each advancement wave is followed by a price correction wave that pulls the price down before the bulls take over the market again and push the price to higher levels. Accordingly, although we expect BTC price to test the $416 resistance level soon, this will mostly be proceeded by a price correction wave that will take the price down to around $335 (around 50% price correction) within the next few hours or so.
- The bullish wave is usually halted whenever the price drops below the 20 period EMA as shown on the below chart, so as the price is now above it ,we expect to see higher prices within the next few days.
- As per the Fib retracements we plotted earlier, BTC won’t face any significant resistance except at $416, so we expect the bulls to push the price up to attempt to test this crucial resistance level soon.
Conclusion:
As BTC price breached the resistance level at $353.5, we are most likely going to see it rise to attempt testing the resistance at $416 within the next 48 hours.

Thank you for this beneficial info
Wow, hey my friend. I miss your insults and impoliteness. I stopped taking medications man as I am now on electroconvulsive therapy. Thanks for calling me a fool, my friend and allow me to appraise your specially formulated “conspiracy theory” that you apply to analyze everything related to cryptocurrencies. I can’t wait to read your reply that will be probably filled with some of your “fudgy” friendly curses and seemingly creative impolite eloquence..
So why couldn’t the Chinese “willybot” push it to $416, and then “organically” retreat?
Actually, the $416 resistance level is being tested tight now
Yes I am familiar with those and it is a normal phenomenon; whenever a bullish rally is in action, it is followed by a downward price correction attempt that results from profit taking.
yes and this has been mentioned in my analysis; I am not rewording your SUPER ANALYSIS
I have to disagree with you again. The bitcoin economy is too big for a single incident to ignite such intense uptrend.
I am afraid I don’t believe in your conspiracy theory. The problem is that you have an “anti-Bitcoin” attitude, so you think that it is a screwed system that is manipulated by game players, apart from your idea of “All Crypto exchanges are fraudsters until proven otherwise”. Life is much brighter than this!!!
