Price has got under the Ichimoku cloud in 4-hour timeframePrice is actually testing a support of 7632€.
Uptrend scenario
If price bounces on 7632€ then it might get uptrend again ; The lagging span line is still inside the ichimoku cloud ; The lagging span might bounce on the lower line of the kumo cloud.
Downtrend scenario
If prices gets under 7632€, and the lagging span line (chikou span line) gets under the ichimoku cloud then that would mean a first confirmation of the downtrend, at least on shorter timeframes.
Laggingspan
Price has got over the Ichimoku cloud in 1h-timeframe.And the lagging span line (chikou span line) is actually trying to cross the ichimoku cloiud in one-hour timeframe. If the lagging span line gets over the kumo then that would mean a confirmation of the uptrend at least in one-hour timeframe (for hourly investors). If the lagging span line gets over the ichimoku cloud then one will have then to watch on 4 hour timeframe and daily timeframes to identify potential resistances for the price and the lagging span line.
ETH/USD over the cloud in 4h-timeframe and in the cloud in dailyETH/USD price has got over the Ichimoku cloud in 4-hour timeframe.
One has to wait for the Chikou Span Line (aka Lagging Span Linge) to get over all the obstacles that are over it for now (Tenkan Sen Line, Kijun Sen Line, Kumo Cloud, Price itself).
If the Chikou Span Line / Lagging Span Line gets free in daily timeframe then that would be a good confirmation of the up-trend.
Potential BTC breakout from downwards channel - 1h chartBTC is showing signs of a buy signal on the 1h chart. The lagging span has pierced the Ichimoku cloud and the K line is crossing over the D line of the stochastic RSI. Futhermore BTC has found support on the centre line of the Bollinger Bands. If BTC clears the downwards channel (green) trend line then we could be back in bullish territory. The 4h chart is less convincing though. To be continued...
ETH same story as XRPSame same but different. ETH shows the same patterns as XRP short-term. The lagging span has so far failed to pierce the Ichimoku cloud. Futhermore the K line of the stochasitc oscillator has crossed over the D line indicating a further downtrend. The last green candle met resistance at the upper Bollinger band. So unless the lagging span clears above the cloud, ETH continues to be bearish.
XRP hasn't mananged to pierce the Ichimoku cloud yetContinuing from my previous idea for a potential short-term increase in XRP, the lagging span has so far failed to pierce the Ichimoku cloud. Futhermore the K line of the stochasitc oscillator has crossed over the D line indicating a futher downtrend. The last green candle met resistance at the upper Bollinger band. So unless the lagging span clears above the cloud, XRP continues to be bearish.
Potential short term 20% increase for XRPWhile XRP remains predominantly bearish, we have a few signals here that could indicate a short-term uptrend to our previous resistance (red-dotted line). We have pierced the Ichimoku cloud and the VWAP (pink line) has crossed over the 50 MA (blue line). If the lagging span of the Ichimoku cloud (black line circled in yellow) pierces the Ichimoku cloud then we would have a strong bullish signal for a potential 20% increase in the price of XRP.
