TD9 indicator has popped up now on 4h, 3h, and 1h. Its even about to pop on 6h with one more candle!
If this doesnt reverse now, then there is only one explanation and that is total market manipulation.
TD9 on so many timeframes has NEVER resulted in continuation like this in any normal market.
If TD9 had been invalidated on different TFs, then it would be a valid sign for continuation, but instead TD9 popped a 9 count on all these timeframes (and many lower 30m, 15m TD9 signals in the meantime).
I know that CME is trying to fill its gap, but this is quite far reaching.
You can use TD9 and backtest markets and you'll never see a situation where TD9 pops on so many TFs and then continues its movement in the same direction.
Something is very very fishy here.
Another indicator that something is really wrong, is looking at the other coins that are typically very tightly tied to BTC: ETH, XRP, etc.
They are not moving above resistances. While BTC is.
This is very very strange market movement.
Perhaps it is best to get out of this short and wait for CME to do its business manipulating the market to close its gap. I am pretty firmly viewing that as the only reason we are not dumping right now.
I only entered a high 92xx short and did not fill my high 93xx shorts, so I will look for manual exit over the next 4h candle.
I will look for another short at 98xx level where CME gap needs to get filled.
The VOLUME on this movement upwards is also very low across all exchanges; and declining.
There is NOTHING that shows this to be valid normal market movement and all indicators are just going crazy.
We are in a bearish trend on ichimoku which is one of the most (if not THE most) accurate indicators for trend and resistance/support.
This market action defies all TA. Best to avoid being in any trade right now.
Usually if BTC is surging I would look at taking an earlier entry long in ETH, but even that isnt viable as ETH cant break 200 while BTC just keeps going up.
Same thing with XRP. hardly holding onto 0.20 so thats not a good long either.
This is madness!
Madness you say?
THIS! IS! CRYPTO!
