Bitcoin Holds Recovery Opportunity With A Bullish Reversal Pattern

The release of High CPI data triggered the ongoing correction in the Bitcoin price. As a result, the coin price reverted from $22500 and tumbled 17% since last week. Earlier today, the coin trader continued to face selling, and with a 5.7% intraday loss, the price retested the July bottom support of $18600.

However, the selling pressure has nearly evaporated by the press time, and the chart shows a long-wick Doji candle. Thus, a bullish signal candle at crucial support hints at a better possibility of price reversal. Furthermore, the potential breakout from the immediate resistance of $20800 will give additional confirmation for bullish recovery.

If this theory worked out, the Bitcoin price would form a double bottom pattern in the daily time frame chart. The neckline for this pattern is at $25000. For more information on trading this bullish pattern, read this article.

Relative strength index: the daily-RSI chart shows an evident bullish divergence to nearly every retest to the $18600 support in the past three months. Thus, divergence indicates growth in underlying bullish and an additional confirmation of bullish reversal.

Ethereum Price May Retest $1400 Resistance Before The Next Bear Cycle

For the same aforementioned reason, the Ethereum price lost 27.5% since last week and plunged to local support of $1280. However, during this downfall, the coin price breached the monthly support zone of $1400.

This breakdown should accelerate the bearish momentum and extend the ongoing correction to a deeper level 

However, the daily chart shows a hammer candle at $1280, with a sufficient boost in volume. This reversal candle suggests the altcoin may rise higher and retest the $1400 mark as potential resistance.

If the selling pressure persists during this retest, the sellers may pull the prices below the $1280 support and plunge the price to $1000 support.

EMAs: the downsloping crucial EMAs(20, 50, 100, and 200) accentuate a downtrend in Ethereum price.
