Let's take a closer look at the BTC/USD chart on the thirty minute timeframe:

I've performed the Fibonacci study from the low of the past fortnight at 555, to this week's high at 590. Sometimes, it can be a bit of a discretionary process when deciding which points to apply the Fib study from and to, with multiple locations having potential of being a decent place for a swing low or swing high. However, in this case today, it's sheer mechanics. Remember, not only is 590 the high of this week, but, at the same time, it is a very important resistance line, because on the higher timeframe of the Daily, it represents the first major Fibonacci retracement level of 23.6%, as mentioned in yesterday's analysis. Hence, when zooming into today's technical analysis, specifically on the M30 chart, we know there's no room for discretion here when performing our intra-day Fib study. I.e. we have the low at 555, which was actually a double bottom pattern, and we have the latest high at 590. So, simple - just perform the study from these two points.

Now, take a look at the candle marked with a red ellipse. This is a very bearish candle for a few reasons.

Unsurprisingly, there was a relatively quick move down to the 61.8% Fib level, which was tested twice in quick succession, marked in blue circles.

Right now, price is hovering around the 23.6% Fib level, and I still hold we could see a re-test of 590 soon.
