Good analysis! You're right about the market struggling to hit key benchmarks. Usually traders tend to sell around these points which would drive the price down a little. I love channel trading and that chart is looking great! It's forming a small "ascending triangle" which is pretty bullish for short term trading like what you're doing (especially in a single day).
It's so interesting that cryptocurrency can be traded 24hrs a day. This could be a very lucrative way to make small gains while eating a midnight snack! =p
Great article - thanks for posting!
