ETH β†’ Ascending Wedge, Double Top, About to Drop!? Let's Answer.

Long
INDEX:ETHUSD   Ethereum
Ethereum has a string of reversal indications that give us a picture of bearish price action. Are these data points enough to enter a short?

How do we trade this? πŸ€”
Three pushes up, an ascending wedge, and strong resistance alone is not enough justification to enter a reversal trade unless you fade your position (small entries until the reversal happens). It's better to wait for a strong bear bar closing on or near its low below the 30EMA to provide enough probability to justify a reversal trade. If the price breaks below the Daily 30EMA and closes a candle with followthrough or a re-test of the 30EMA as resistance, a short entry is justified.

Alternatively, if we find support at the 30EMA or get a strong bull bar closing near it's high, it's reasonable to think the price will hit the next resistance target of $2520.00. I would trade small on any long position this late in the trend as it's more likely we're about to enter a trading range or major pullback.

πŸ’° Trading Tip πŸ’°
Three pushes up, an ascending wedge, and strong resistance alone is not enough justification to enter a reversal trade unless you fade your position (small entries until the reversal happens). It's better to wait for a strong bear bar closing on or near its low below the 30EMA to provide enough probability to justify a reversal trade. Your probability is still inherently low, but catching a trend when it starts gives you more room for reward, that's the tradeoff.
