Crypto volatility is the main attribute that attracts a lot of traders to Crypto markets.

A few days back LINK/ETH pumped up a 50% positive price change in just 85 minutes. Here is a try to look at a way to see if it was possible to screen and find in advance.

The following indicator is used.

Indicator used: EMA(20,close), EMA(20,Open),Volume, MACD( 12,26,9,close)

The chart candlestick time frame is 5 minutes.

The observation using the indicator are as follows:

  • EMA(close) above EMA(open),both for 20 candle time frame.EMA crossover and rising trend help to understand the momentum direction which is upwards in this case
  • MACD (12,26,9) crossover and increasing.MACD crossover and rising shows confirmation of the trend.
  • Volume jumped 19.3 times in 5 minutes from 4.4K to 84.951K. Volume increase signifies an increase in momentum and market pace.

Now looking at the chart from a zoomed-out perspective in the following 4 H candle chart as shown below.

The price jumped around 60% the breakout this means the user could have used price break out to confirm the increase in price.

I hope you enjoyed the brief break down of the 50% gain in 85 minutes post-analysis. Do clap the post if like it and follow us at twitter @tradeplanio
