The chart is split into Daily (left side) and 4 hrly (right side)
Observations:
a) Strength in the signals
A number of strength signals indicate that on the daily, we are not maintaining strength in the upward direction, the signal is getting weaker which is also reflected in the sideways movement
i) The daily RSI is indicating in the up momentum but weaker strength
ii) The daily Momentum indicator is approaching zero (32), the up momentum is dropping off
iii) The daily MFI indicating less $$ coming in, hence the price is moving with weak force
iv) CCI (commodity channel index) hitting zero meaning there is no dominant energy in the market. Note: -100 indicates dominant trend in the down side and +100 is moving towards the up side.
We seeing weak retrace to the down side and little strength in the upside.
v) MACD histogram is going to support the downward movement
b) EMAs
i) Daily EMAs are converging towards the same range, indicating strong support. It looks like in the 4700 and 4800 range.
Depending on the rate of decent of BTC, will determine the convergence of these lines.
ii) Daily 50 and 200 EMA will be the first major support.
iii) On the 4hrly, the 200 EMA also lines up with the red line which is a strong support. Hence 4950 to 5000 is potentially a nice buy in area
iv) Further weak signals? then on the daily, blue line (long target) of 4000 to 4200 is to wait for.
Conclusion:
We have weak retracement and weak on the up side. I have drawn 2 black boxes to show how long it took in this area to break up (showing strong resistance)
I am guessing similarly that the box on the right side will take just as long to break the support as it took resistance, in this range.
5000 is the short term target. After that we should look again at the indicators and trending.
My guess, it will bounce to the 5200s range and then make another slow retracement to the next EMA\Support line of 4700\4800 range.
NOTE: Many exchanges show different information especially Bitfinex and Bitstamp, critical information. I'm using Binance data as its one of the largest exchanges and hence I see this mitigating the extremes.
