Why the Bitcoin price is falling - shoulder-head-shoulders formation

 


The Bitcoin price has fallen sharply in the past few weeks. But why is that exactly? This was due to a head-and-shoulders formation that had formed over the past few months. This formation is a bearish trend reversal formation. But how exactly is such a formation structured? Today we will explain to you how a shoulder-head-shoulders formation is constructed and what you should consider when using this pattern


A shoulder-head-shoulders formation, as the name suggests, has two shoulders and a head. The head lies between the two shoulders and is the high point. The shoulders are under the head and find support at what is known as the “neckline”. That neckline in this case was around $41,140. Necklines are mostly normal horizontal supports as well. As soon as the neckline breaks, expect the Head-Shoulders to break out.



The course of a shoulder-head-shoulders formation is as follows:

1. The course rises (important: the course MUST rise. Otherwise the formation would be invalid)

2. A high is formed with subsequent correction (beginning of the neckline)

3. A higher high is formed. This high could be classified as a higher high. However, is the head of the formation.

4. Price falls back down to the neckline and finds support

5. A trader can expect a head and shoulders formation to form

6. Another shoulder is formed which is about the high of the other

7 Price moves back towards the neckline and finds momentary support or breaks out outright

8. Price falls a little and then rises again to test the neckline. Thus, the breakout is confirmed (This procedure is not strictly necessary, just provides confirmation)

9. The target / next support is targeted.




You should note that

A shoulder-head-shoulders formation is not directly a valid formation just because we have two shoulders and a head. Price needs to form this pattern after rising because the pattern is a trend reversal pattern. Otherwise it is invalid.



In the best case, the volume on the left shoulder is higher than on the right shoulder. Generally for formations, the volume just before the breakout should be rather small in order to experience an explosive breakout. This property is not necessary for the head-and-shoulders formation to be valid. However, it would be good if the volume matched. This gives you a higher chance of success.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
