ETHER LITTLE CHANGED, DASH DOWN Both Ether and Dash are trading little changed versus bitcoin. Ether is up by 0.11% while Dash is lower by 0.84 percent since last Thursday. Not large moves by any means and especially not for the crypto market which tends to be more volatile than traditional markets. Ether Little ChangedEther is quoted little changed vs BTC. The altcoin had a short and uneventful trip below the 0.07 BTC figure on June 30th only to bounce back quickly. We are quoted at 0.07115 BTC right now, not far from where we were trading at on June 28th. Ether is still in range on the daily charts, we remain in ‘wait and see’ mode here. The shallow break below the previous lows doesn’t count as a trend changer. Continue reading...

Both bitcoin and litecoin are trading only a few percentage points above the 2018 lows. Bitcoin is quoted at $6,075 dollars right now, down by $625 dollars or 9.3 percent. Litecoin is trading at $77.31 dollars, down by $20 and almost 21% in percentage terms. Bitcoin Floats Above 2018 Lows Bitcoin hit a new yearly low of $5,766 on Sunday but we got a fairly quick rebound from here. In the next few days the dead-cat bounce took us to $6,326 dollars but as you can see on the chart below a lot of those gains have since faded. We are still in a downtrend on the daily charts. To end it we need a breakout above $6,840 dollars per coin. A new rally, however, requires a break of the $7,775 resistance as well. Higher up there’s more resistance at $8,590 and 8,880 dollars per coin. The $10,000 round figure is another notable resistance level. Continue reading...

A Guide for Trading Divergences Divergences were born from the desire of having an alternative to chaotic price movements. Since the Personal Computer (PC) invention, traders find it easier to plot charts and calculate complicated oscillators using sophisticated mathematical formulas. An oscillator appears at the bottom of the main chart and considers many periods before plotting a value. For this reason, oscillators are more trustful than the actual price. Hence, traders rely more on what an oscillator shows rather than what the price does. Divergences appeared as a consequence of comparing the moves of a currency pair with the ones of an oscillator.
