Comments
The bullish reversal confirmation indicates the dips are likely to find new buyers unless the virtual currency breaks below $2000. However, the 10-DMA is still sloping downwards, thus break above $2300 is likely to be short lived. We are likely to witness sideways trading today with a positive bias.
