I am happy to consider adding names to this list. THE HEADLINES MARKET DATA EXCHANGE, CUSTODY AND PRODUCT NEWS THOUGHTS ON...
I have looked at a lot of different technical analysis over the past several years and I recently discovered some new work from Technical Roundup, a shop based in the UK. I plan to start incorporating their bitcoin (BTC) analysis into BitDigest every Wednesday to provide a technical explanation for BTC’s price action.

BTC’S LONG-TERM PROFILE REMAINS POSITIVE Despite BTC’s volatile swings through 2018 into 2020, the longer-term chart profile remains positive with BTC in narrowing consolidation above its long-term uptrend. Granted, a series of lower highs (12/2018, 06/2019, 2019, 02/2020) remains in place and break below BTC’s 2015-2018 uptrend (7.7-8K) would be an obvious technical concern/problem. However, a break has yet to develop and a move above the 10-11K resistance band would...
