AVAX → Avalanche About to Reverse!? Or Continue to the Upside?

Avalanche has been roaring through a nice curving bull channel until the top of the third push at $42.75! A nice sell signal formed on yesterdays daily candle, now we need to see how today closes to make our next move.

 

How do we trade this? 🤔

AVAX → Avalanche About to Reverse!? Or Continue to the Upside?

Avalanche had its third push up in the bull channel, a typical number of legs before the trend changes into a trading range or reverses. Given Bitcoins recent sell-off at a key resistance level, I believe it will drag AVAX down with it. AVAX has a sell signal on yesterdays candle and if today closes with a strong bear candle, we're likely looking at putting in some more lows. The RSI is also over 75.00 and below the moving average, all supporting at least a short-term bearish sentiment.

We need follow-through! Yesterdays signal is not enough justification to enter a short. It's best to wait for the price to fall to the 30EMA and see what happens there. If we get a bounce then another rejection to the downside, we'll have a head and shoulders reversal pattern on our hands at which time, a short will be justified.
