Market storms during USA inflation data — My support held the pressure!

By MikeZillo | Trading with Mike Zillo | 14 Oct 2022


What Market Phase are we entering into has been the introductory question for our last appointments. Are we going to listen to the Bulls or the Bears? Are we going to see a Bull Market or a Bear Market?
Welcome to Surfing the Market, we are already at our 21th appointment and I hope that with these easy tech analysis we have helped you in some forms, even just to evaluate different market perspectives.

Let’s start from our usual weekly perspective

Price has tested one more time the price area of the Green Line that is still acting as a support.
This is the most recurrent phrase in the last weeks into my weekly Market screening. Green support line has been momentarily broken during the announcements of the USA Inflation Data reaching 8.2%.

Anyway, after the first initial fear of the markets when the price of Bitcoin dropped from the 19100$ level down to 18200$.
Once some Shorters and some Stop-Loss have been removed and executed, market has started to bump again in a perfect Bear Trap, with a consequent Bull Trap that is seen currently while I am writing. If the Bear Trap was harder to see, since you can never measure in advance the impact of such a news, the following Bull-Trap was easier to detect and making some profits. (I have sold a position in BTC at 19.627$ area, and I have put a Buy-Limit Order at 19.421$).

As said before, in my personal opinion Bitcoin price can only drop towards 15000$ if major bad news come up, like a huge electricity crisis, a mobile network crisis or a gas limitation from Russia.

Dollar Strength Index has shown some uncertainties as well, yesterday. The weakness from yesterday could be the trigger of the Bitcoin bounce-back. But now the DSI is recovering and that is why I sold a small part of BTCs, since I personally expect price contraction.


What do I expect from a daily perspective?

We have seen another deep movement below the green support, that has been immediately absorbed from the demand pool, making this elastic bounce.

At the moment, I am still conservatively Bullish.

50MA on a Daily TF is acting again as a resistance rejecting the price. Gradually breaking the 50MA could be a first signal for a local-bullish trend, to reach the Blue Resistance again.

What to observe particularly?

50MA and Ichimocku Clouds can act as Resistance. I expect some small volatility to bring the price back to he level 19000$ and then a possible continuation of the local Bull-trend.

I am waiting the Blue Level breakout to see more upward movements.
