The removal of the emotional aspect of trading allowed me to focus on the data without projecting my personal feelings into trades and analysis.<\/p>\n<p>Looking solely at the 30-minute price chart for Bitcoin, I drew horizontal lines according to repeating close prices to identify where traders may be looking to place stop-losses. I then compared these levels to Coinglass's <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/liquidation-heatmap-shows-volatility-ahead-as-btc-drops-to-57k\/\">liquidation levels<\/a> to see which aligned with high leverage. Finally, I reviewed the Binance spot market <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/us-moves-global-markets-because-of-liquidity-not-volume\/\">order book<\/a> to analyze where large buy and sell orders were placed outside the current mid-price.<\/p>\n<p>Based on this seemingly simple analysis, I created four channels throughout February and March to not predict the market but to identify where we could expect support and resistance. Over the past six months, these channels have matched local <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/akibablade\/status\/1820569155059532083\/photo\/1\">bottom<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/orb.club\/p\/0xb087-0x015a-DA-a5841dcd\">tops<\/a> multiple times.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_439398\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-439398\" style=\"width: 1928px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-439398 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-20-at-11.34.07.png\" alt=\"Bitcoin channels over the past 6 months (TradingView)\" width=\"1928\" height=\"1410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-20-at-11.34.07.png 1928w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-20-at-11.34.07-300x219.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-20-at-11.34.07-1024x749.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-20-at-11.34.07-768x562.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-20-at-11.34.07-1536x1123.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1928px) 100vw, 1928px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-439398\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bitcoin channels over the past six months (TradingView)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Further, Bitcoin's drop to $49,000 lined up perfectly with the last line of my bottom channel.

As a result, I see the value in identifying areas wherein other traders will place orders to estimate where to expect market reversals. Ultimately, charting is only a minor factor in determining Bitcoin price alongside regulation, geopolitical events, the economic climate, social sentiment, and on-chain transactions.<\/p>\n<p>I do not claim to be able to predict Bitcoin prices daily. However, these channels have been highly influential in determining how much pressure Bitcoin needs to pass certain price levels, either up or down.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, at present, sizeable Bitcoin FUD caused by institutions moving large amounts of Bitcoin on-chain will need considerable social sentiment pressure to pull Bitcoin below $56.6k. Likewise, bullish sentiment caused by cutting rates or increasing market liquidity would need to be substantial to push through $66.8k to break into the top yellow channel.<\/p>\n<p><em>I post about this analysis on the on-chain social media platform <a href=\"http:\/\/hey.xyz\/u\/akiba\">Lens Protocol<\/a><span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hey.xyz\/u\/akiba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">,<\/a>\u00a0along with new SlateCast episodes, on the official\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/hey.xyz\/u\/cryptoslate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CryptoSlate<\/a> account.
