At $BOME traders typically use a wide range of trading signals and technical indicators to predict the path of a price. While not all methods are necessary to accurately forecast market direction, some key indicators carry more weight. Identifying a Cryptocurrency's support and resistance levels gives traders insight into the market's supply and demand, while also helping to determine trend reversals.
Additionally, chart patterns are also widely used by traders to form trend lines that help predict the next movement of Japanese candlesticks.
Various indicators such as RSI, moving averages and MACD can be used to determine the direction of the long-term trend and attempt to predict future price movement.

RSI
The RSI offers additional insight into market momentum by measuring the size of a cryptocurrency's price moves to determine whether it is overvalued or undervalued. Market traders use the RSI as a momentum indicator to identify overbought or oversold conditions and decide whether to accumulate or sell an asset. Readings above 50 and an uptrend indicate that bulls still have an advantage, while readings below 50 suggest otherwise.
Moving averages
Moving averages are an important analytical tool that gives traders a bigger picture of what is happening on the charts by calculating the average closing price of a cryptocurrency over a given period of time. The relationship between the short-term and long-term moving averages is crucial in determining the direction of the trend. When the short-term MA moves above the long-term MA, it is a sign that the trend is gradually turning bullish.
Alternatively, the trend is neutral if the 50-day MA has crossed above the 200-day MA, but the price is trading below them (and vice versa).
MACD
Finally, the MACD uses a simple moving average (SMA) and an exponential moving average (EMA) to more accurately predict the trend. Similar to simple MAs, the relationship between these two is useful in determining the direction of the trend.
For all these indicators, the weekly time frame is used to determine the long-term trend, the daily time frame is used for the intermediate trend, while the six-hour time frame is used for the short-term trend.
However, it is important to mention that the price of cryptocurrencies is very volatile and can change quickly, so it is important to stay up to date and do your own research before making any investment decisions.
