Whats the mystery of this falling witches hat pattern? 2018.07.30

in #bitcoin6 years ago

15 minute candles

Starting at around 17:00 UTC we had a sharp sell off which dropped the price $264 on Bitstamp taking the price from $8117 to $7853. The drop quickly reversed and bounced slightly higher than where we started. It is also positive to note the increase in volume as the price climbed. A good bullish momentum evidenced in this move but what prompted this sell off?

1 hour candles

The best explanation I have found for this pattern was the breaking of the support of the ichimoku cloud on the 1 hour chart. We can clearly see that the dump starts at the same candle that broke the cloud.

Quick recovery for BTC, but alts seem to be bleeding from it when taking a look at the Alt-to-Satoshi price. Hope BTC stay stable now for a bit and then pushes higher with the alts following like last years bull run.
