Bitcoin Sets Up In Textbook Fashion

Bitcoin is currently setting up in a textbook fashion in a cup and handle base. This is as good as a setup can get and looks like a fat pitch. Everything is seeming to align here, with the general market starting to heat up and more funds and institutions starting to buy Bitcoin.

There are a few things that make Bitcoin chart a textbook setup. First, I really like the way it held up in April while the S&P 500 came in. This is a blatant sign of relative strength, as those who held Bitcoin were reluctant to sell despite all the fear around tariffs. After rallying, Bitcoin pulled back calmly on lower volume. This is exactly what we want to see as it indicates there is not much heavy selling taking place. Moreover, the fact that Bitcoin has not closed below its' 10-week line since mid-April is another sign that a strong uptrend may be emerging.


The icing on the cake is that the average person does not seem to care. Take a look at the Binance crypto sentiment indicator and the CoinMarketCap Fear/Greed indicators. Both are reading neutral. Overall interest in Bitcoin is actually extremely low when you look at Google Trends.

When you put all of these together, you get the recipe for a strong move. The new emerging theme of crypto, combined with a textbook looking chart setup in a strong general market, with the average person not caring means that there is money on the sidelines that will soon find its' way into Bitcoin once it makes a new high. This is a textbook setup if there ever was on.


Risk right. Sit tight.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure: Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.

Risk Disclosure: Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
