Had a few messages asking me if my Ethereum / USD short trade idea is now obsolete with the changing market sentiment. Figured it would be easier to publish another idea.
Answer: An emphatic NO with bells on.
The majority of tradingview ideas are long at the moment calling for dizzying heights, as are popular Youtubers. What do I know… they might all be right, markets are irrational.
Rather than what I know, I’d rather look at what is possible versus what is probable. That is how every trade you make should be examined; suddenly emotions are removed from the analysis.
In 22 months Ethereum has appreciated 5500% since $80. Amazing.
On the above monthly chart during September / October a ‘incredible sell’ illuminated around $4500. This is a probability indicator normally only seen on the daily chart. Rarely is it seen on the weekly. But on the monthly?! Look left, the signal did not even print on the 2017/18 market top during all that euphoria. But it did print on the 2-week.
Regular bearish divergence. It is as clear as day. The majority of 2021 continued to print higher highs as RSI printed lower lows. This does not make for a rosy 2022 for Ethereum price action!
Lower lows are also printing on the MFI. This is significant, this is telling you money is flowing out. Don’t be the last one out the door.
In summary:
Is it possible price action moves higher? For sure.
Is it probable? No.
1st Target: $1200
2nd Target: $670
2nd target only if 1st target fails to offer support. 2nd target is also the 0.5 Fibonacci level that offered support following the 2018 correction.
Good luck!
