Bitcoin needs to reconquer $4,539 in order to avoid the abyss below $4,000

Where will the free-fall of Bitcoin stop? After a downfall on November 14th, BTC/USD had a bad day on Monday that became worse today. At least it’s doing better than Bitcoin Cash, which crashed 40% in 24 hours. What are the levels to watch?

The  Technical Confluence Indicator  shows that initial resistance awaits at $4,448  which is the convergence of the Pivot Point one-day Support 1 and the Bollinger Band 15-Middle.

However, a crucial level is $4,539. Here we see the confluence of the all-important Pivot Point one-week Support 2, the previous 4h-high, and the Simple Moving Average 10-1h. As the chart shows, this is a critically strong level. Recapturing it would provide some relief and prevent imminent  further falls.

It would also open the door to higher levels: the are of $4,700  is the meeting point of the Bollinger Band 4h-Lower and yesterday’s high. Next up, we find the SMA 100-15m, the SMA 5-4h at $4,858.

If this does not happen and BTC/USD resumes its falls, $4,129  is the initial target: it is the Pivot Point one-day Support 2.

However, that line is not that robust and a much more significant support line is only at $3,856  which is the top-tier Pivot Point one-month Support 3.

Here is how it looks on the tool:

The Confluence Detector finds  exciting opportunities using Technical Confluences.  The TC is a tool to locate and point out those price levels where there is a  congestion of indicators,  moving averages,  Fibonacci levels, Pivot Points, etc. Knowing where these congestion points are located is very useful for the trader, and can be used as a basis for different strategies.

This tool assigns a certain amount of “weight” to each indicator, and this “weight” can influence  adjacents  price levels. These weightings mean that one  price level without any indicator  or moving average but under the influence of two “strongly weighted” levels accumulate more resistance than their neighbors. In these cases, the tool signals resistance in apparently empty areas.
