SCBTC / Symmetrical Triangle How To Trade
Updated
Technical Analysis
Symmetrical Triangle
Siacoin is in a symmetrical triangle very close to the apex (meeting of up trending and downtrending line) and should break out soon. The closer to apex, the closer to breakout.
2 Lower highs and 2 higher lows confirms this triangle is valid. Volume contraction / reduction also validates Symmetrical Triangle pattern.
This is generally a continuation pattern, meaning if it entered the symmetrical triangle from a bullish run, it should continue, bullish. the symmetrical triangle is sometimes a reversal pattern, meaning we should wait for a valid breakout of the upside before we buy in. To enter this safely we want to see at least 5% move upward (235-240 Satoshi) as well as some buy volume kicking in, showing interest. We can also wait for accelerated movements upward (large green candles) and bullish gaps.
Often, the level of the Apex turns into support and can test / bounce on it around breakout before resuming to target.
Symmetrical Triangle target is generally the widest distance of symmetrical triangle.
Many sources state that 75% of symmetrical triangles are continuation patterns.
We’re buying in on a 5% movement upwards and re-buying and adding some in this trade on the test / bounce of the apex.

Fundamental Analysis

Project
I am bullish on Siacoin as I believe it is a great project, and is in my core holdings for 2018. Siacoin is a “decentralized cloud storage” that is completely private and encrypts files on a decentralized network. It is affordable as 1TB cost about $2 a month. It is open source and the devs are transparent, and many people are allowed to contribute. The community has been building applications on top of Sia’s API. Siacoin also has a decentralized storage marketplace, that allows people to “rent” and sell digital files, document and similar. Sia leverages the capacity of blockchain technology to enable distributed networks to reach consensus in a secure and trustless way. Cryptographically secured smart contracts ensure the encryption and transfer of data with no possibility for a third party to interfere in any way.
