BTC Update! Bulls give us our higher low and higher high!

COINBASE:BTCUSD   Bitcoin
Love when charts go the way you anticipate or at least mostly. Last chart I mentioned I had scaled into about 80% of my position on the drop down and re-entered final 20% just over 10k on the first bounce up. Ideally I was seeking a lower high to set in around 10,500-10,900 as that would be a solid bounce and give plenty of breathing room for the bulls to then form a higher low.
Bulls finished just shy for the lower high, coming in at $10,445. Overall pretty decent tho so can't complain other than I missed my first sell to take some profit off the tabel by $30. Oh well.
From there we needed to see the bulls get their higher low compared to $9470 (our low of the pullback). They did this with a higher low at $9,740 last night. And from there we wanted to see the higher high come in compared to wherever the bulls set their lower high (as of yesterdays post we didn't have a lower high set yet as thats what I was hoping to see at 10.5-10.9k). So now that we did get the official level at $10,445. That was the lower high to beat so bulls could shift the trend back into higher lows and higher highs. The bulls did get us there today with a higher high thus far coming in at $10,539. So this isn't much of a higher high but technically is one. I'd like to see bulls give another leg up before coming back down for another higher low. This will give bulls back some control on 4 hour chart and also makes for much easier trading as traders just follow their stop losses up based on each new higher low being established.
Personally I remain in full position as I just missed my first sell yesterday (and would have then rebought on the consolidation seeking the first higher low) but since I missed it, I then raise my first sell level in anticipation of the eventual higher high (which I'm patiently waiting for another leg up to give this higher high a bit more momentum).
If bulls do trend back down that is fine and we just watch for our next higher low with $9740 being a key level to hold and $9470 being more critical level to hold. We must be cautious as 4 hour RSI has significantly cooled off now (remember the oversold 4 hour RSI is what had us begin scaling into positions initially). Also worth watching is our 4 hour EMAs I use (12 EMA currently serving as resistance and 26 EMA currently trying to give support). Overall trade is going nearly as well as one could hope for. A push for further momentum up tonight or tomorrow to really give this higher high some meaning would really help solidify the trade, allow for some profit taking to then have my personal stop loss area at about break even for the trade. Those are my favorite types of trades as they do allow for much more comfort knowing you won't lose money and it then turns into trying to maximize some profits.
Sorry for long write up. I am now out of town for the weekend so will check back in Monday or Tuesday!
