Reversal BTCUSD Patterns

These patterns are formed after the btcusd market has had an extended move up or down and the bitcoin price reaches a strong resistance or support respectively.

When bitcoin price reaches such a point it starts to form a pattern. Since these formations are frequently formed it's easy to spot them once you learn how & begin using them. There are four types:

• Double Top
• Double Bottom
• Head and shoulders
• Reverse Head & shoulders

This learn bitcoin tutorial will only cover double tops and bottoms, for the other 2, read this other tutorial: head & shoulders and reverse head & shoulders

Double Tops

This is a reversal bitcoin pattern that forms after an extended upward trend. As its name implies, this formation is made up of 2 consecutive peaks that are roughly equal, with a moderate trough in between.

This setup is regarded complete once bitcoin price makes second peak & then penetrates lowest point between highs, called the neck-line. The sell cryptocurrency signal from this formation occurs when the btcusd market breaks below the neck line.

In Bitcoin Crypto Currency, this formation is used as a early warning signal that a bullish bitcoin trend is about to reverse. However, it's only confirmed once the neck-line is broken and the btcusd market moves below neck-line. Neck line is just another term for the last support level formed on the Bitcoin chart.
