Bitcoin markets back and forth during the session on Friday, showing signs of volatility yet again. I believe that the markets continue to be very noisy as the Bitcoin markets typically are.
Bitcoin bounce back and forth against the US dollar during choppy trading on Friday, losing just a tiny bit. However, the $9400 level above should be resistance, and if we can break above there I think that the market will probably go looking towards the $9800 level next. A break above that level should send this market towards the $10,000 level. Ultimately, there is more than enough support underneath to keep the market higher, but I recognize that the $9000 level underneath would be support, just as the $8800 level would be. I think that the market will continue to be one that you need to pay attention to and use small positions in. Looking at this market, I think that adding to a winning position is probably the only way to go. Do not put too much into this market at once.
Bitcoin markets initially tried to rally during the trading session on Friday, but then rolled over to test the ¥1 million level. That’s an area that should be supportive, but if we break down below there we could drop down to the ¥950,000 level. This is a market that continues to be very noisy, and I think that the Bitcoin against the Japanese yen market is one of the most important ones to follow, as it gives you the impression of what 40% of the Bitcoin market will do. After all, with Japan being such a major player, it makes sense that this pair is when you should be watching. A breakdown below the ¥900,000 level would be very negative, perhaps sending this market as low as ¥700,000. In the short term, I think that we will probably continue to try to rally.
