The false break out the top of the rising channel was enough for me to look for shorting opportunities.
This indicates there is greater selling pressure above and now expect a break through the bottom of the rising channel.
This could also coincide with Bitcoin which is at a supply zone and struggling to push higher without volume. Therefore, keep an eye on BTC as it will affect ETC price action.
Initial targets will be the 127% extension, however will refine once smaller time frame patterns emerge for entry.
Confirmation of a sell order would be a break below the trend line. Bearish bias until the market proves otherwise.
