The cryptocurrency markets, especially altcoins are facing a brutal week. So many pairs are either in oversold or extreme oversold territory. While it may look scary to enter long positions at this point, it’s actually a good idea to be a contrarian. The immense selling in the past few days puts bulls in a good position to annihilate short positions.

In line with that, we believe Bread/Bitcoin (BRD/BTC) is poised for a strong rally.

Technical analysis show that BRD/BTC looks ready to break out of a large falling wedge on the daily chart. Yesterday’s pin bar candlestick supports this assumption. This shows that bottom pickers are buying the support.

In addition, we can see a bullish divergence on the daily RSI. This also affirms the idea that the market is gaining bullish momentum.

Lastly, the pair appears to be at the apex or at least near the apex of the falling wedge. With a bounce underway, bears would be hard-pressed to generate a lower high that’s so close to the support.

The strategy is to buy the breakout at 0.000055 after the pair prints volume of more than 2.3 million Bread units. Bears will try to put up a fight to keep market control. BRD/BTC needs buyers to absorb the selling pressure.

Once breakout is complete, the ensuing rally would likely take the pair to our target of 0.000075.

The process can take less than one month.

The Monero/US Dollar pair (XMR/USD) climbed as high as $469.50 on December 20, 2017. This marked the end of an impressive bull run that saw the pair grow by more than 700% in four months. From this point, the XMR/USD has been in a downward spiral. The good news is that a significant bounce is on the horizon.

Technical analysis reveal that XMR/USD is showing signs of a potential rally. First, we see the pair about to hit the apex of the large falling wedge on the daily chart. This pattern is so large that it is also visible on the weekly chart.

A quick look at the falling wedge shows that the market always bounces when it drops to the support. The market is currently sliding down the support side of the wedge. This gives us reason to believe that a bounce is in play.

On top of that, XMR/USD is also about to touch its long-term support. This trend line has existed since March 2017. The strength of this support should make it difficult for bears to push the price further down.

Lastly, we can see a bullish divergence on the daily RSI. This tells us that XMR/USD is gaining momentum. This signal also affirms our arguments that the support will hold and that will lead to a significant bounce.  

The strategy is to buy as close to $80 as possible. Should bulls hold on to this key support, they will likely inspire a rally to our target of $125.

The process may take less than a month.

The Aeternity/Bitcoin (AE/BTC) pair surprised investors when it went as high as 0.0006333 on April 29, 2018. Before that move, AE/BTC was trading at a low of 0.000159 on March 18. This means that those who bought at the low grew their investments by over 300% in less than a month.

Unfortunately for buyers at 0.0006333, participants exploited the pump. The market has been dropping since. Nevertheless, it appears that AE/BTC is ready for bottom picking.

Technical analysis show that AE/BTC is trading inside a large falling wedge. The pattern is about to hit the apex just as it is about to touch the line in the sand of 0.000165 support.

Call it coincidence, market psychology, or manipulation. What’s important is that we know that 0.000165 is an area where demand exceeds supply. This is the staging ground that kickstarted the bull run earlier this year when the market surged to 0.0006333. This tells us that the “smart money” likes to buy at this price level.

The strategy is to buy as close to 0.000165 support as possible. If our assumption is true, then the “smart money” or the “whales” will start buying at this level. They will also defend on the support to protect their positions. This should spark a rally to our initial target of 0.0002532.

The process can take less than one month.
