As a follow up from my earlier post on Bitcoin pricing (see previous post here), I feel compelled to provide an update with the latest BTC/USD daily chart:
The reason why I felt compelled was first, in my previous post, I wondered if we're heading back to $6,000 again. I think the market gave a strong response right after my post. More on that later.
Second is because I had a comment on my previous post. As there were a few camps projecting Bitcoin price to head towards $6,000, would this eventually become a self-fulfilling prophecy? This is actually an excellent comment, and something worth considering this age of digital trading today. I am personally not a firm believer of Technical Analysis leading to a self-fulfilling prophecy. Sure, it can happen. But it won't always be the case. This is a very liquid and fluid market, with all sorts of people participating. It is very hard to believe that everyone trading know the support and resistance lines of a counter, nor will everyone have the same support and resistance lines for that matter.
Going back to the chart, it's good to see there was a strong reaction on price back to the $8,000 level. My conservative self though feel we still have to be cautious here, on 3 points:
In other words, notwithstanding the very impressive green bar yesterday, the long term move is still up in the air. All we've done is stemmed a few days of lackluster trading. It will be interesting to see how price reacts from here. I'll check back on BTC/USD price again in a few days. In the meantime, have a great day ahead.
