LTCUSD : Bullish Analysis - Target $560 USDAs mentioned in the previous "Bearish Analysis - Target $104 USD" on LTCUSD and according to its fundamentals becoming positive for the Litecoin it will induce bulls to come in to the market making a huge demand once again. In order for that to happen from the technical perspective it needs the price to beak out the red falling wedge line marked with a symbol of an unlocked paddlock. Once it did, according to the applied Fibonacci retracement levels the price will then reach previous resistance levels at $335 USD and $379 USD respectively before breaching those key levels to make new highs around $485 USD and $560 USD afterwards.
LTCUSD : Bearish Analysis - Target $104 USD- Fundamentals : Although many other altcoins are dominating these days making new highs in the Cryptocurrency market, some of the prominent ones are still trending slowly or consolidating at the moment. Litecoin too is stuck in this same atmosphere.
However the reason behind of the current atmosphere of Litecoin may seem as a result of its founder Charlie Lee selling all of his reserved LTC just to make it clear that his remarks on Litecoin through frequent tweets that fuel the price up every time do not reflect on his personal gains on the holdings of his proportion of Litecoin.
Recent issues with scalability and higher transaction fees are causing more inconvenience and Litecoin Foundation making changes to resolve this issue with using LTC in transactions can bring more attention inducing a surge in price soon. However till that is brought in to effect it is possible that the price of Litecoin will move conforming to the Technical Analysis displayed on the chart.
- Technicals : If the price breaks below the red trendline at $207 USD marked by a sign of an unlocked paddlock, it is possible to see a decline as per the applied Fib retracement levels until a previously formed high near $104 USD where it will serve as a key support for the price.

FTC is changing direction and looking good - FTC had some good days in the past and this coin helped me get through some red days. We have seen it change direction yesterday and looks like it is going to change direction again tonight. I think it is going to go back up and we should enjoy some nice % of profit from it.
My 1st target is 3950 - but to be honest I think it will do a lot more. After that i am aiming for 4500 and then 5800.
I have added a stop loss at 2600.
Hope this will come true - don't invest what you can't lose, buy low and sell high and the most important thing is - Nobody knows whats going to happen and most of us (including me) don't really know what they are doing. it's all just ideas and trading analysis that can go both ways so again - don't place all your eggs in one basket and never take a risk that you can handle.
LONG TRXBTC: Major Uptrend--Fibonacci Retracement PredictionPer the ABCD points that are nicely in parallel with one another, I can see a huge jump to around .00002300, which would also fall in line with the 1.382-1.5 fibonacci level. Friday Morning sell of is healthy and typical thus far. We are in a significant buy zone, so if you haven't gotten into TRXBTC -7.82% , I suggest getting in now.

2018 is going to be a stellar 5.28% year.
XLMBTC : Lumens Rally Before Bitcoin DoesThe native token on the Stellar Blockchain, Lumen has already entered Top 10 Cryptocurrencies in the world making new highs although currently it's making a correction as in the chart. However many ICOs and New Projects are adopting the Stellar Blockchain and newcomers to Crypto world are surely looking forward to investing in coins with lower price. Therefore it is possible to see a continuous increase in price of Stellar Lumens (XLM) in the upcoming days. Also concerning the Maximum Supply of Lumens on the network which is 100 Billion and fundamental factors of other Cryptocurrencies, it's a bit unclear to predict a 2-Digit price for Stellar Lumens in the future.
OmiseGO is undervaluedOmiseGO is currently undervalued. The ATH is 0.00329400 BTC. The current price (0.00148600 BTC) is at 45.1 % of this, so we are still very much undervalued!
Current performance is very much bullish on the daily chart. Right now things are slightly overbought, could see a very brief correction at this level, but I expect the price to continue rising soon (this week ?).
Reaching the ATH is just one target and not the end of the road!
Research OmiseGO fundamentals, this company (Omise) has been around since 2013 and employs over 100 people. It operates in Japan, Thailand and Indonesia amongst others. It offers critical gateway services between crypto and legacy banking and is working on achieving a decentralised exchange network for exchanging between cryptocurrencies. Why is this important? Decentralised exchanges are possibly the exchange networks of the future!
One of the advisors of OmiseGO is Vitalik Buterin, founder of Ethereum, who has said OmiseGO is his favourite token model for 2018: oracletimes.com

EUR/USD potential path in 2018Last year, I post it in TW version. Now, EUR/USD break the downtrend tunnel , which prove I am right: still bullish in 2018. Why and How?
EUR is more likely testing support 1 before it break resistance 1. It's also test the old downtrend tunnel.
If we observe weekly chart, we could a tunnel from 2015-2017, EUR/USD broke it and test it successfully! Using the weight of tunnel as the target of EUR in 2018, it could be around 1.3000. However it think it's a long-term target in the next two years
1.2400 will be a very important price level in 2018. The downtrend line from 2008-2010 will challenge EUR trend. Also it's the bottom line of a big triangle.
What's more, view it through harmonic pattern, if price reach 1.2400, it could form a butterfly pattern! B is 78.6% of XA, D could be 1.272 times of XA. Hence, 1.2400 should be on your screen
usdollar already formed a head and shoulder pattern. Not a good future for it
Let's wait and see in 2018
good luck!

EURUSD prospect 2018, dollar to get stronger after feb-march. Hi Guys, My yearly forecast of eurusd shows some initial EUR upward momentum during jan-feb but after that we will see strength in dollar cause there is high chance it's gonna make last wave to downside making some kind of running flat in major corrective structure. right now euro showing high signs of more upward move. but its about to finish that big expanding flat for downside.
Bitcoin BTCUST 2018 Infinity and BeyondBitcoin BTCUSD 2018
Well the last day of trading Bitcoin in 2107 was a difficult one. We managed to bag 450 or points from 13000 to 13460 early
on (and day traders another 300-450 trading the range from 13000 to 13150, also earlier in London session) but then lost the
plot as the day wore on with two poor trades centered around the 14000 level which lost 50-150 points each time. So it
wasn't a grand-stand finish to the year, unfortunately, and on a bad day we ended up just 150 points or so ahead (maybe
450 or so if day trading). But in 60 or so days of fairly intense mining we have extracted over 19,000 points from Bitcoin if
you go back and total the trades. So it took about 2 months to buy Bitcoin outright and still have some change left over. No
one can say what 2108 holds in store. But just so long as the great mine in the sky remains open for business we have to
work it. There may never be an opprtunity like this again in our lifetimes...how often does mankind attempt to put a value on
Ether? Never. Bitcoin has a value of somewhere between $5 and $50,000. That's all we can say. But that is one hell of a
range to play inside...a range we are basically making up as we go along. That creates a wonderful, big space for traders to
play within. So long as Bitcoin keeps moving fast we should be able to make some good returns again this year coming. And if
we only average a paltry 200 or so point return each day as yesterday, that translates into 1400 points per week and will
therefore take just 10 weeks for us to own Bitcoin outright through traded profits. And that in turn means we buy Bitcoin
5 times over in a year. So by working this mine systematically and intensely and by looking to trade patterns and not price,
we should be able to make good returns for as long as it stays open to us.
Please Pay this Forward
These commentaries on the life and times of Bitcoin began in earnest 60 days ago - mostly because seeing some of the
forecasts by Tradingview's 'top' writers covering Bitcoin and how vague and confusing and ultimately unhelpful they can be
just twanged my vibes so strongly that I had to do something about it. It began as an experiment in human nature - am old,
pretty much retired but still totally addicted to charts, especially in 'bubble' type situations because the chart is just
a temperature gauge showing how 'hot' people feel in aggregate about product 'X'. It is human nature in the raw,
displayed on screen. People make patterns. And people don't change. Each generation tends to think it's smarter than the
one that went before it - their cars are faster, safer, they'll be driving themselves soon; their toys are way cooler - pretty
much everything except music and movies is just ...better. So the confidence of each new generation is understandable to an
extent. But the truth is that human nature itself never changes. We react in exactly the same way to fear and greed
as we always did. Deep down, under the surface absolutely nothing has changed. We're human, is ALL. So we track and
trade the recognisable patterns that humans make across the chart - the same patterns humans always tend to make across
the ages - whether that's the patterns made in 1927-1933 at the end of the 'roaring' Twenties or the patterns made by the
Tokyo bubble exactly 60 years later (1987-1993) or the patterns made by Nasdaq from 1997-2003 or the patterns
made now by Bitcoin (2017-2023?) ...they are all the same. With one big difference: time. We know Bitcoin moves
something between 60 and 100 tmes faster than pretty much any speculative instrument ever devised by man so far in all
history. What happens on the SandP over weeks is displayed here in hours. It means that there are roughly 60 to 100 times
more opportunities to open trades in Bitcoin than there are to open trades on SandP, obviously. One is just a fractal of the
other. All we have do is watch for patterns to develop, identify them, and trade them.
BTC - Once in a lifetime opportunity. 2018 longer than MandingoIgnore the FUD - They want you to sell. Big institutions are moving in and they are trying to buy your Bitcoin's for cheap. Bitcoin is an extremely rare and revolutionary asset, the recent parabolic movement should be no surprise.
Hold your positions - The risk of selling now is far greater than the reward of holding. Short term trends will pick up. Expect huge swings around the CME futures closes. January 18th is the first monthly contract close. What a surprise that the CME futures markets clocked in at an all time high of $20k. It gave the naysayers ONE chance to say "I told you so" by shorting the lights out of BTC. The short term down-trend reversal is imminent. If you want to take a risk of chasing a $6-8K BTC, by all means do it, but you need to realize that you may be giving too much credit to the text and voices you hear across the internet.
Accumulate and forget about it - Here is 5 different trends pointing to ~$50,000/BTC by the end of 2018. First trend (shortest term) is still intact even with recent consolidation.
Make sure your portfolio has a healthy ration of BTC - Alt-coins most likely will suffer when Bitcoin decides to tear through the streets. If you are new to Cryptocurrency and you do not own any BTC, now is your time to not make the mistake of holding 100% Alt-coins. Bitcoin is not too expensive. If you've invested in Ripple because it was cheap, count your blessings now and exit before you get burned. I would highly advise to invest in Ethereum over Ripple, and of course make sure you have a PHAT portion of Bitcoin in your portfolio.
Lightning Network - Atomic swaps and Decentralized crypto exchanges ARE the future. When you read shite on the internet about how Lightning network is a myth, ignore it. Lightning network will be incredible and all the Segwit coins will benefit from this.
Exchange Traded Funds (ETF's) - Futures markets opened the doors for ETF approvals. People have been trying for years to get a Bitcoin ETF through the SEC, and we can now see the light at the end of the tunnel. Just know that when there is a functional ETF, dump trucks full of money will be lined up to get into BTC like Midtown Manhattan rush hour traffic. Think about it like the whole 401(k) industry will have the opportunity to diversify a small fraction of their portfolios into Bitcoin.
UK100: FTSE100: Short and longer term Forecasts for 2108
FTSE 100 Index UK100 Short and Longer term Forecast for 2018
Fantastic straight-line break-out finally achieved by FTSE 100. Bull markets climb walls of fear. That wall is Brexit. FTSE
keeps climbing and pays the nay-sayers no heed. They are the most slow-witted fools remaining. But never forget, the
market needs mugs. The 80% losers pay for the 20% winners' dinners, most days. That's just the way the numbers fall.
The breakout has been one long green candle - but it's only got a little more upside to 7818 and/or to test the upper
parallel that contains the rally come Tuesday opening. Look to close out longs into the final move upwards - and if the
high at 7704 is not broken above early on - or price flips back to the lower parallel at arounnd 7634 and then goes on to
double top at 7704, then again, look to close at least half long positions if you see price stick at 7704 or just under on this
kind of price action. FTSE should then fall back to 7635 at least, and ideally back to the the big break-out levels at
7597-7580 at absolute lowest before it rallies hard once more, likely by this stage to move up through 7703 and 7818 to the
next important resistance potential at 8348 over the more medium term (first 6 to 8 weeks of new year, roughly)
Longer term views on both FTSE and SandP remain unchanged: Both indexes continue to climb their own
different walls of fear (Brexit and Trump). Both love the outcomes. Paradigm shifts. Complete game-changers, both
events. After 14 to 16 years of sideways to down markets we have begun the greatest secular bull run that many younger
investors will have ever experienced. Both markets are expected to rise at least 4 times and potentially 6 times from
start 2016 prices over the coming 14 years or so. Stay long if a long time holder and pay this forecast no heed whatsoever.
This is for day traders or for those wishing to get long here ready for an excellent 2018 in store - for this market in particular.

BTCUSD : $25K USD When Bulls Are Back After HolidaysFact : 90% of Altcoins are only exchanged for BTC and can not be bought with Fiat
Conclusion : Most of the Altcoins are created and traded to collect more BTC
Therefore Bitcoin will always be #1 in the Cryptocurrency world if no technical flaw in network is exploited or the current slowness in verification of transactions is mitigated. With that being said and now the holidays are almost over, resting Bulls will be back to work and when that happens $25,000 USD is the next new high for Bitcoin to make !
