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 AnalysisI wrote in my previous BTC/USD forecast on 27^th June that Bitcoin was showing some bearish signs, so I was looking for bearish reversals from failed tests of resistance levels as the best entry method with which to open new short trades.This was not a great call for the day as the price was quite bullish. However, the next day things turned more bearish, and the price is now lower than it was then by a meaningful amount, so over the longer term I was taking the correct approach.The technical picture has become much more bearish. The price chart below shows that the price action has been moving lower in clearly impulsive bearish waves which keep printing obvious lower resistance levels, which is also a bearish sign.The price has arrived at the support level of $58,309 which is very important technically – a break below this level would see the price have room to fall quickly as far as the $55,000 area, as this price zone is blue sky and has not been reached for two months.I think $58,309 could be very pivotal. As the price is very close to it, I think the best approach will be to wait for the level to be tested and to go long with a small speculative position if there is a bullish bounce. If the level is broken and we get two consecutive lower hourly closes below it today without any strong lower wick, a short trade targeting the next support level at $55,425 will make sense.There is nothing of high importance due today regarding Bitcoin or the US Dollar.More By This Author:Forex Today: Stocks In USA And Japan Power To Record HighsEUR/USD Forex Signal: Weakly Bullish Ascending Price ChannelGBP/USD Forex Signal: Weakly Bearish Below $1.2658
