Price Action Can Be Deceptive – Look To The Charts
Charts Display More Than Price Merely observing the price action “in the moment” is extremely deceptive. The previous candles on a low time frame chart mean nothing when measured against the long-term trend. Charts reveal so much more than price. Traders and investors who only consult the “price metric” will most times come away with…

Bitcoin – Consider The Risk
Recent Hope Bitcoin has been trading somewhat higher than the recent low of $17.637 which managed to flush out a lot of the weak hands. I was already out in 2021 and then sold off the last bit that I wanted to sell when BTC was above $30K. I have since been focusing on trading…

Choosing Not To Trade Is Also A Trade
Beware Of Overtrading As a trader, one has to choose opportune moments in the market. This often requires a level of patience, much like a lion lies in wait for vulnerable and unsuspecting prey. This is often where new traders make the critical mistake of overtrading. Trading just for the sake of trading can often…

Current Market Conditions Validate Traditional POS Over Lending
My Personal View I have stated repeatedly that I prefer traditional proof of stake to lending, as the risks are considerably lower.

The “Quiet Phase” Begins

Charts are not simply data but more specifically the data and presentation of human behavior over time. This is powerful because human behavior never seems to change. FOMO happens every single bull cycle…

Don’t Confuse A Bear Market Bottom With The End Of A Bear Market
Even Cycles Have Cycles The initial stage of any bear market is usually the most deceptive. Oftentimes the market only realizes that a bear market is in play once it has already started. Denial is usually the most common response, which ultimately allows the bear to get its claws in on an unsuspecting victim. Once…

The Building Of New Long Positions Begins Soon!
Sticking To The Plan Working to a strict plan and strategy is always best when trading markets. Markets are irrational at best and if you are not disciplined it can become a rather “messy” combination. My best-case bottom target came very near to being realized overnight. Bitcoin moved into the 20K zone very briefly, only…

My Bitcoin Bottom Prediction Playing Out As Expected… So Far!
There Needs To Be Measurable Points In The Journey Some argue that it is impossible to predict markets and therefore discourage “trying to time the market”. However, I disagree completely, one needs to have some sort of idea of where a particular market may be in terms of cyclical behavior. All markets and all assets…
