On an hourly chart, $7.20 resistance has held 5 or more times recently. Presently we are back in the recent trading range. Thoughts?

Strange how it's always the .2's which provide so much resistance/support. 3.2, 4.2, 5.2, 6.2... 7.2

We blasted through 7.2 on the initial rally up to 7.50. I dont subscribe to this theory.

this is an almost completely psychology-driven market. we like dollar multiples and +/- $0.2 is apparently the right amount of deviation to produce the momentum necessary to get us to the next level of resistance. to test my theory, as the BTCUSD rate increases, so should the distance from each dollar multiple to its envelopes of resistance, as it really ought to be a percentage of the rate rather than a scalar.

So we should be selling at the x.15 point, just before the aforementioned deviation-resistance constant.

That's what an increasing number of people seem to be doing, making the $X.20 resistance level a self fulfilling prophecy. At least it makes for semi predictable trading conditions.

Coincidentally, we recently hit $7.15 twice and shot back down, when trying to get past the latest $7.20 resistance point. I think I need to watch the movie "Pi" again. :-)

It looks like we are going to take another stab at it here soon.

As one of the other threads pointed out which im about to post on next it looks like we have another triangle forming. This is like the one before the last jump to 7.20 so i think we are going to break it for sure.

$7.20 is still holding (resistance). Hopefully not much longer. On the 4 hour chart slow buying pressure is building to the upside. Can the bears repel the repeated bull attacks at $7.20?

I agree with most people here that 7.2 $ is only a minor resistance.

I see a mini correction down into the $6.90 range for most of the day, backing off the $7.20 resistance.

It all depends on the time frame of course. I agree with you. In my first post I showed an hourly chart (serious resistance). Maybe I should have worded it differently.

No worries :-)
Very short term, you were right that 7.20 was resistance.
Mid term, not.
