Qtum / Bitcoin Short-term price analysis
QTUM is bullish against Bitcoin over the short-term, following the recent surge in the QTUM / BTC pair, which sent price to a fresh 2019 trading high.
The move higher has invalidated a bearish head and shoulders pattern and created a large inverted head and shoulders pattern on the four-hour time frame.
Traders should expect the short-term bullish bias to remain intact while price trades above the head of the invalidated head and shoulders pattern.

The app allows to use QTUM for all point-of-sale payments with merchants that accept Apple Pay, and Samsung Pay.
Qtum / Bitcoin Medium-term price analysis
