Abstract
Abstract We analyse various technical trading rules in the form of the moving average-oscillator and trading range break-out strategies to specifically test resistance and support levels and their trading performance using high-frequency Bitcoin returns. Overall, our results provide significant support for the moving average strategies. In particular, variable-length moving average rule performs the best with buy signals generating higher returns than sell signals.
