It's the 1st of the month today, an important day as we have the monthly close, so let's see what we got so far and what we can do next week.
We closed last month with a bearish candle unfortunately. The overall drop in the market we had this week didn't spare $HIVE either, so we closed the month with a bearish candle.
So far price is above the monthly open, but it's way, way, way too soon to conclude anything as not even a day has passed of the new month. levels of interest are marked on the chart and previous analysis regarding levels is still valid.
On the weekly chart, price has swept liquidity from $0.0835, which was the swing low, bounced and it it trading slightly above it. Levels to watch on the upside, if we get a reversal at some point and some momentum are $0.113 and $0.1214. In case the weakness continues, the lext liquidity level on the downside is all time low (ATL) at $0.0327, unfortunately.
On the daily time frame, price swept liquidity, from the previous swing low at $0.0835 yesterday. Today we can see a bounce, price attempted to sweep internal liquidity from the bearish gap and invert it, but got rejected. If the current candle closes above $0.075, this level will be confirmed as the current swing low and would mean external liquidity level, but for that, we need to wait till the current candle close.
For bullish continuation, price needs to invert the bearish gap between $0.0882 and $0.0925, after which the levels I'd be keeping an eye on are $0.0967 and $0.0987. Above that we have the two bearish gaps, that mean resistance.
On the h4 time frame, we have quite an ugly rejection today. Yesterdays drop left a bearish gap in the way down, which was rebalanced today, but there was not enough buying pressure to keep price at that level, or close above the gap, so at the time of writing, price is below the gap again. If there's more weakness in the market, sweeping the current swing low at $0.075 is in the cards.
For bullish continuation, price needs to get back above the bearish gap, marked with yellow on my chart, invert it and hold. The immediate level to watch on the upside is $0.0898, after which comes the other bearish gap, that needs to be inverted.
$BTC hit the bearish gap between $97777 and $97931 on the 14th of February and got rejected. Yesterday price swept liquidity from $80607 and could not bounce off that level. At the time of writing, chances for price to sweep $74456 are high. I'm expecting a bounce at that level and some sideways price action, but it remains to be seen as TA is not about what I'm expecting. We deal with what the chart gives us.
ETH/BTC is at a crucial level. This level has to hold and we need a bounce here, otherwise things can get ugly.
Next week we have a full economic calendar, there's news to drop every day, so get ready for some volatility.
Remember, technical analysis is not about forecasting price, but about reacting to what price does.
As always, this is a game of probabilities, not certainties. Also please note, this is not financial advice, it's my view and understanding of the market.
