Trading Signals for BTC (Bitcoin) on January 17-18, 2024: buy above $42,180 (symmetrical triangle - 3/8 Murray)

This image is no longer relevant

Bitcoin is trading around 42,617 below the 21 SMA. We can see that Bitcoin is within a symmetrical triangle pattern and will likely continue moving within this pattern until it can define its trend.

Bitcoin could resume its bullish cycle if it finds good support around 3/8 Murray or at the bottom of 42,180, the zone of the symmetrical triangle pattern. This area could offer the opportunity to buy with the target at 43,500.

Additionally, if Bitcoin breaks above the symmetrical triangle pattern and consolidates above 4/8 Murray, we could expect a bullish acceleration and the token could reach 5/8 Murray at 45,312 and finally, 6/8 Murray at 46,875.

On the other hand, if Bitcoin maintains the bearish strength, breaks below the symmetrical triangle, and consolidates below 42,200, we could expect it to reach the 2/8 Murray support at 40,635. This level could be a good point to buy because the eagle indicator is giving oversold signals.

BTC could reach the psychological level of $40,000 if it remains below 43,200 in the coming days. Above this zone, the outlook could be bullish towards 48K. Nevertheless, below the 200 EMA, the price could return to levels of $38,000.
