BTC surges through 13.8K resistance = another long-term bullish technical development in BTC’s favor. BTC’s recent surge through the June 2019 resistance highs at 13.8K is yet another bullish check mark confirming a new bull cycle. While a very short-term pause appears likely (see below) we encourage investors to remain focused on the longer-term bullish technical profile developing and look to near-term pauses and pullbacks as opportunities to increase exposure notably:
Active traders – Expect a pause but don’t lose sight of the longer-term emerging uptrend For the very active trader, a pause at current levels is likely to develop as BTC rallies into the upper end of its October uptrend channel. While the trend channel is obviously not textbook perfect, it does serve as a proxy for BTC’s multi-week uptrend. With 4-hour RSI pushing into overbought territory, we would expect BTC to begin a shallow consolidation near current levels.

Seven of the 11 S&P Select SPDR ETF’s were higher by more than 3%, and volume was nearly 10/1 bullish on NYSE and NASDAQ, producing a “90% Up day” in volume. Hourly charts show this breakout above the two former peaks...
The SPX showed just minor downside follow-through after Tuesday’s reversal but might not immediately weaken down to prior lows ahead of the US July 4th holiday. As mentioned, prices reversed on cue Tuesday due to a combination of Elliott-wave analysis with Gann analysis which provided price and time targets based on the prior June 16th bottom. I expect that the next couple days might show prices attempting to stabilize and...
Cryptocurrency rally looks to have temporarily stalled out after a sharp three-week rally. Ethereum has stalled out in its relative performance vs Bitcoin, and for now, Bitcoin is an outperformer over Ethereum and should be favored. Weekly momentum remains negative and Cycle composites start to turn lower in early March into April/May, so given low retail interest and not many inflows, this could limit the larger rally continuing to all-time highs...
