The flag is identified by trendlines connecting the highs hit on May 22 and June 9 and the lows reached on June 5 and June 22. Meanwhile, the pole is represented by the initial surge.<\/p>\n<p>A move above $109,000 is needed to confirm the bull breakout, which would open the door for a rally to $146,000. The level is calculated by adding the length of the pole \u2014the initial surge \u2014 to the breakout point, using a method technical analysts call a measured move. <\/p>\n<p>A bull flag pattern represents counter-trend, low-volume consolidation within a narrow range, preceded by a sharp increase. The consolidation tends to be smaller in magnitude and duration than the preceding rally, helping to relieve short-term overbought conditions and recharge the bulls&#8217; engines for the next leg higher.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Flag formations occur over a short period \u2014 usually a few days to few weeks,&#8221; Charles D. Kirkpatrick wrote in his book, Technical Analysis: The Complete Resource for Financial Market Technicians. &#8220;Volume usually declines throughout the formation of the flag.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;[However], it is important to be cautious to make sure that a complete formation has occurred and to wait for the breakout,&#8221; Kirkpatrick noted.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.sanity.io\/images\/s3y3vcno\/production\/1daa31d84bbba8491760162a0856a2a13709c323-2848x1292.png?auto=format\" alt=\"BTC's bull flag.

First, prices can dive out of the flag, marking a bearish reversal. Second, a bullish breakout can fail, which calls for continuous monitoring of the price action.<\/p>\n<p>That said, failure rates are low, according to Kirkpatrick.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Because these patterns have low failure rates, few pullbacks or throwbacks, short time periods, and steep trends preceding and following their occurrences, they are very good trading patterns,&#8221; Kirkpatrick noted.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a daily technical analysis by CoinDesk analyst and Chartered Market Technician Omkar Godbole.
