As promised, here is tonight's Technical BTC Update. full update + charts on:
http://mtgox.com/blog/?p=55As many of you have realized, the market is relatively unchanged over the past days, so I only did minor tweaks in the re-post of Wednesday's update. I am sure price action will get exciting again. Often, this happens when most people do not expect it, so stay alert.
Overall, there are no fundamental changes in our the outlook. The bulls are in the attack, but the bears hold the lid on the market around 0.30-0.35$.
Analysis
1. Long term outlook
BTC/USD are in rally mode. The longterm chart that shows the perfect uptrend line (now around 0.265 $ and rising ) and also the 0.30 - 0.35$ resistance.
Strong upside targets are the previous high, 0.50 $, dollar parity at 1.00 $, and then the 1.30 - 1.50 area.
Support lies in the 0.265 area (trendline), 0.25 and o.20-0.22 afterwards.
2. Short term update
No change: The inverted head and shoulders pattern is still intact, awaiting the breakout to the upside, which is still the most likely scenario. Based on my daily analysis of the order book, ASK volume is declining, indicating that buyers "slowly eat up the cake above them".
