Bitcoin: BTCUSD On Important Support Right nowBitcoin. Clock-Work 05:53 est another 01:00 gmt low, another at 06:00gmt. And high at 10:00 - right on the upper parallel where longs who bought at 6am have closed out for 450 points - day's work done. Now has to climb above the upper paralle and hold there on retest once broken to turn back to bullish again from here. Unlikely in very nearterm but it's trying hard here. We have had 4 waves down which is standard stuff for Bitcoin so this decline could be over but it still has some work to do to bust above the mass of resistance gathered above it from here...the old neck-line - can only get long from here once the upper parallel is busted and held - all it's done so far is a nice little counter rally to exactly where it should stop. We got some far Eastern interest at 01.00 and some European interest at 06:00 and now we'll need US interest to help it move higher from here - in meantime it needs to unwind a little. So far it's holding at 10100 but when this gives way it should fall back to support at 9965-9855 07:07est Last low on Bitstamp at 9935 with a nice spike under it on 15 minute - and now we have a break of the upper parallel and test of the first line of resistance at 10254 as early birds in US catch the worm - likely to push on up to the neckline by 14.45gmt, maybe in the 15 minute candle on US official open - if you got long on the last dip as above stay with it and raise stop to just under the low at 9930 for small loss if wrong from here. Look to close out in the 10300-10350 range where fixed and dynamic resistance begin to merge. But we 've broken the down-trend and need to be ready to get long again when and if that uppermost dynamic/old neck-line is broken above and held (now at 10345) - can follow the break with stops below 10300 when it happens. Bulls have 4 waves down which signals potential completion - but the bears have that Head and Shoulders on their side still - bulls gotta break that neck-line next big test - then we are off to the races with a relief rally - but not until...day traders are using the smallest dynamic here on 3 minute by look of it... 09:09est After moving sideways above the parallel for a while Bitcoin has come back to life as expected with US opening. Now testing the target at 10300-10350 with a spike high at 10372 on bitfinex....so closed out and looking to buy again lower , maybe only as low as 10300 ... 09:14 Had to get that uploaded quickly - so this is looking good again - has just poked above the dynamic/old neck-line on Bitstamp which is the big test now...buying across 3 continents - just neeed to beware a suck in here though...but if it can hold up here above 10350 and the dynamic this is going to rally very well now...

MACRO VIEW: USDRUB HOLDS UPTREND TEST DESPITE OILUSDRUB held uptrend test on 1-year and quarterly basis (bounced back from 1st standard deviations from 1-year (264 days) and quarterly (66 days) means). What is strange, Russian Ruble continues to fall despite downtrend in WTI oil has failed recently. (see related) If price continues to trend upwards (above 66) - likely target is 80, a level outlined by Russian Central Bank today as the price at which it will raise interest rates again. Failure of USDRUB uptrend will be confirmed only when price tags quarterly mean (at 60 now)
