The 3-day chart
The cryptocurrency has created a bullish outside reversal candle. This implies that the price action observed during the days following Dec. 17 engulfed the former three-day candle’s high and low. This candlestick pattern suggests that the timeline began on a pessimistic note, but has ended on an optimistic note. It’s widely considered as an early sign of a bullish reversal. It is even more obvious from the appearance of the pattern at the bottom of the downtrend. However,the bearish to bullish trend change can only be confirmed if the present three-day candle ends above $3,590, which is the high of the bullish outside candle. Also, the relative strength index has caused the development of a bullish divergence in the oversold territory below the 30.00. The trading volume also dropped in recent weeks showing that sellers are beginning to run out of steam. All of this has resulted in a better outlook for BTC. The digital currency is likely to rise above $3,590, well ahead of Thursday’s close.The Daily chart
Bitcoin closed on the daily chart at $3,596 yesterday. This confirms a falling wedge breakout, implying a bullish reversal pattern and a bullish divergence of the fourteen-day relative strength index. The five and ten-day exponential moving averages have also bottomed out. Bitcoin can also attack the recent high of $3,633 as the days pass and extend gains towards the $4,000 mark. On chart and the three-day chart,bullish indicators likely indicate that the tide is no longer facing the bears in the short term. Bitcoin looks ready to cross the resistance, which was the Dec 9 high of $3,633. It could rise toward $4,000 in the coming days. The short-term bullish strategy will be invalidated if the digital currency finds support below the low of Monday at $3,181.More positive news for the digital currency
