Technical Analysis of STEEM/USD - Experiment day 8

in #money6 years ago

Intro:

Using the Ichimoku Cloud as my trading tool and making a testable prediction about the direction of the price. Unlike the rest of these Chartists I make predictions, test them, and keep you updated on how they went.

Quick definitions:

The Blue line in is Tenkan-Sen (Conversion Line). It’s the midpoint of the last 20 price bars.

The light red (non-thick) line is Kijun-sen (Base Line). It’s the midpoint of the last 60 price bars

The Green (Thick) line is Senkou Span A (Leading Span A).

The red (Thick) line is Senkou Span B (Leading Span B). Both leading spans are plotted into the future.

The green line is the Chickou Span (Lagging Span), and will always lag behind the price; it’s the most recent price, plotted 30 periods back.

Looking at the 2 hour time frame we seem to have actually got a double bottom here. At least it fits the standard description. One of the red bars has been fully recovered by a solid green bar. Then it moves up from the 84-85 cent level but then hovers around there for the rest of the day. It's not backed up by significant volume which is trouble some but nevertheless it's gaining again.

I suspect we'll see some resistance near the 90 cent level because, physiologically, humans love nice around numbers.

Personally with the double bottom I'd be bullish about this and if I was looking to buy. I'd be trading in around now. We might see a retest on the bottom again during a complex pull back - if one happens. But I sort of doubt it will. On the 30 min time frame we see a fairly large jump down to the 77 cent level where it was met with some strong buying support and jumped back up to near the 80 cent level.

Prediction:

Prediction: I think it will continue to increase and reach a resistance level around 90 cents
Staying between 84 cents and 90 cents.

Current prediction results:

Last time I said that "I think we'll see another flag form and a retest of the low." That did not happen. While this is good for a double bottom theory, that is not good for my prediction. I'm my prediction failed.
