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.

DXY Dollar Index Trying to put up a stand at 91.76 supportDXY Dollar Index The Dollar Index has fallen to the next blue line of support 91.76 after an intra-day low at 91.75. It's trying to hold here. It's still trapped in a near term downwave and struggling to escape. It's already made one attempt to escape the down-trend and is trying again now. There are pins forming below the low and above it too on the 2 hour chart, denoting conflict/confusion here. For the bulls to win some respite they need to force DXY above 91.95 and hold it there (and no lower than 91.92 on a retest once 91.95 is taken) to attract more buyers up to 92.05-92.12 range where DXY will likely turn back down again. For DXY to show it's turning back up from that point it will have to take back 92.12 and then turn 92.04 into support when tested from above. Will need to see something like this kind of price action to convince that DXY has more upside to 92.49-92.55 On the downside the next support below 91.76 lies at 91.52 with major support/maximum likely downside target at 91.02. A move below any blue line by more than a couple of pips is likely to trigger further weakness back to the next one.

New to the Cryptogame and learning painful lessons along the wayI always believed that you learn the most when you get hurt. I dove into the market with the fear of missing out on the tremendous upside and potential of this platform. I have long been programmed by the mainstream institutional investors that getting 10-15 gains are the best. I have risked a lot in the stock market before and have been fairly successful so this is yet another endeavor into something new. The first mistake that i made was getting swooped in by the herd mentality and thinking that I was still early in the game. Besides I was the only one talking about bitcoin and its potential. So I figured there's time and since everybody else was not able to take I chance. I went ahead and decided to jump in. Unfortunately I got trapped into the coinbase waiting game and wiped out about 30 percent of my initial investment on paper. When the correction was happening I kept thinking in my head that I should pull out and save the remaining capital. Fortunately, the same thing that got me trapped during the fall also prevented me from getting out and actually realizing the loss. Its just paper loss so far. Then came the lessons learned from the stock market crash during the bank crash. Dizzy and nauseated by what appeared to be an imminent crash all the way down to zero a sudden calm state emerged. Ive been here before. Ive done this before. One mistake on the upside cant be corrected by another mistake on the downside. Painful lessons being learned will hopefully translate into success into this new platform. To all the ones that are dipping their toes...educate yourself, learn from the experience, and tread cautiously. Take your time and contemplate your actions. In time if you truly believe that cryptocurrencies are not a scam or a ponzi scheme...things will be alright. Here's to learning growing and maybe making a new living!

Bitcoin: BTCUSD Trading the BreakdownBitcoin: BTCUSD Trading The Breakdown The massive head and shoulders top formation that has been building since the weekend highs has been completed today. Though quite loosely defined and with two potential neck-lines lying 300 points apart at 15814 and 15509 the pattern is undeniably bearish for the next 24 to 48 hours by look of the chart. But in very near term Bitcoin is staging a counter-rally which has taken it back to the upper neckline at 15814 where it's meeting resistance - it will now have to push on through here and hold up to trigger a further unwinding of shorts back up to 16447 and into the upper parallel before it crashes back down again. But whilst unable to beat 15814 and hold Bitcoin is vulnerable - a sell from 15800 with stops 60 higher for small loss if wrong and it can beat this level and hold - in which case it should rally a further 800 points to the upper parallel and then come off from there - so presenting a second chance to short from highest extreme likely with a stop about 80 points above the patrallel. So two chances to short from here. It should fall away from 15814 (and from 16447/upper parallel at highest) - to test 14040 at least and more likely 13086. The minimum downside target implied by the head and shoulders is 11391. The blue lines of support and then resistance have been working OK so far since the descent began - as usual a fall below any line by more than 25 points or so should lead to further weakness to the next. The new parallels guiding this descent are wide and strong - wider than any of the up-trends on the other side of this mountain. It's big. Obviously. The chart shows it clearly. Right now Bitcoin is making a little continuation pattern - under the neckline - it will fight at 15000 and just above - a lot of orders still determined to buy at this round number - but they are matched by equally determined sellers at 15814. Eventually the bears are likely to win...use any last rally up to 15814 as a selling opportunity with stops just 60 points higher for small loss if wrong, looking for a fall to 14035 initially, then lower still, as above. If not already short any break below 15000 by more than 10 points can be followed for a fall to 14040. And when this gives way another short opens up, this time to 13086. Or look to use this little rally attempt to sell from 15500 with stops 60 points higher *Stops - cannot be used in traditional manner with Bitcoin. You have to keep a stop number in your head and set an alert so if it comes within 50 points or so you get a notification and then have to watch to see price action: is it a spike down to your level and quickly bought back up or is it sticking... be cold, emotionless, machine-like. Easier said than done sometimes.

BCHUSD What a BlastBCHUSD A dream impulse wave has seen BCH rip through the structure to its left on chart in a 2 hour blast last night - from 1580 to 2100, up 33% in just over 120 minutes. And people think FB's cool! This does in 2 hours what FB does in a year. It is indeed a strange and beautiful world, especially crypto world. It's now consolidating, perhaps in the early stages of a flag formation...likely to bounce from each of the blue support lines, at 1766 for bounce to 1849 where it should come off again, ideally to 1700 where it should bounce once more back to 1766 and come off one last time, maybe right back too 1638 start point of this entire recent blast - where, after rinsing out every stale bull still left long from higher levels, it will be ready to go again. It's a game. Recognise it for what it is. And play it.

Wyckoff's 'Composite Man' showing his handCrypto is still the wild west, even with the adoption that has happened so far; here we can see a huge wash trade unfolding in Ripple. To copy from stockcharts, here are Richard D. Wyckoff's remarks on market operators (the composite man) and wash trading: -The Composite Man carefully plans, executes, and concludes his campaigns. -The Composite Man attracts the public to buy a stock in which he has already accumulated a sizeable line of shares by making many transactions involving a large number of shares, in effect advertising his stock by creating the appearance of a “broad market.” -One must study individual stock charts with the purpose of judging the behavior of the stock and the motives of those large operators who dominate it. -With study and practice, one can acquire the ability to interpret the motives behind the action that a chart portrays. ----Wyckoff and his associates believed that if one could understand the market behavior of the Composite Man, one could identify many trading and investment opportunities early enough to profit from them. If you are looking to make large returns on the XRPUSD or XRPBTC pair right now, keep a tight stop-loss and consider the (lack of) forces behind this sudden momentum. It is interesting to see how the XRPUSD price has been kept in a very tight range for so many months and over the last few hours pushed to a breakout. With analysis of volume and price action I believe it may be possible to measure if something is being manipulated. Which could be valuable information if you would like to join such a force. If anyone is interested in working on a project regarding this please message me.

Brent Crude Oil: UKOIL Brent is back in the Buy Zone HereBrent Crude Oil UKOIL Back in the Buy zone Well the stop on the short from 63.77 never got hit and Brent duly came off back to the first target at 63.10 for a small 65 pip win - but should have held it longer as it then went on to test the lower parallel of the flag, bang on 62.17 support at the same point in time, and has since rallied much more strongly than anticipated last week, taking Brent right back up to the old highs at 64.25 before falling away again. (My bad here for getting way too involved with Alt/USD's last week and ignoring this complex in the resulting maelstrom) Anyway, Brent looks OK...Look to buy around current values down to 63.00 with stops at 62.88 for small loss if wrong from here. First upside target is the highs at 64.25-64.61 range - (can close out here if you want) but be ready to get long again on a move above 64.65 for next stage of rally up to the upper big parallel - close out here if struck and look to short with stops 30 pips above the parallel on first touch.

BTGUSD Back in the buy zone againBTGUSD Was banned for 24 hours for posting a text wall yesterday so was unable to update this - which was a pity because that little continuation pattern running down the parallel when we left it was so well defined, just backing and filling - it needed a new line over the highs as it ran down the parallel to redefine the perfect trigger for beakout... and when it came it was excellent quality, big green bear engulfing candle, again, all the things we want to see when trading a breakout. Not allowed to get to this to update, the trigger here was left at 308 for a move up to 320 minimum...in fact it shot though here and spiked into the top parallel over a 3 hour period at 339 ...from al ow at 280 to a high at 339 in 6 hours - 20% in 6 hours! Unbelievable what these can do in such a short space of time. Now it's a buy again on any dips back to 300 - it should rally to 320 minimum again and more likely to test the same larger parallel at around 330 now that it hit earlier today before coming off again

BCHUSD: Next Trade set-ups ahead of weekendBCHUSD Next Trade Set-ups ahead of Weekend This was left as a short backk to 1180-1100 range and with a subsequent low at 1152 it did ok. Obviously the slick trader will not just close out if the last trade has gone to plan, he (and increasingly frequently, she) will naturally seek to reverse, with stops underneath and see what comes. If you managed this here you are a star trader in the making (good traders close out when targets are reached, great ones reverse: who said that?) Anway those who managed the trick or just got long somewhere around the lows have already seen over 20% gains since yesterday. This market is just unbelievable. You can compound money faster than ever before in history 24/7. Still find it astounding that the biggest crap shoot in history is still playing very time we get up, just a button away. BCH is trading in a little wave from the lows, good green showing, bear engulfing those hours of backing and filling in minutes...but it's reached close to the limits of its neat term upside potential and meets a crossroads at 1415 where 3 lines converge, so it's understandable that BCH is shying away from here, being sold off at the natural spot, or just under in fact so far. If long here it'sthe obvious spot to close out and bank gains and then look to buy from lower and/or add once 1415 is broken to the upside. This will free up the space above and let BCH have a damn good weekend in prospect, opening the way for a move up to 1516-1539 initially and way above here in medium term, most likely. In near term whilst BCH continues to track within the impulse wave (loosely defined, so far, early days) it's trend will remain positive. Buy any dips towards the lower parallel if seen - if not it's strong, isn't it? - so buy again on the break above 1415 with stops 50 below

BTGUSD Back in the Buy ZoneBTGUSD Update This has been a good reliable short once the dynamic support gave way, as per comment from Monday. Now it's back in the buy zone so shorts get closed out and reversed long with stops under 318. Short term target is the falling dynamic around 350 where some day traders will reverse once more for another short with stops above the dynamic. Pin bars of rejection off this line shows it's still strong. Price will then need to break above this line and hold on any retest to trigger the next long from here. On the downside major support lies close by at 319. Any failure to hold here over the coming days would be extremely bearish for BTG signalling another good shorting opportunity back to 260 at least, and potentially all the way back to 156.

BCHUSD Now in the buy ZoneBCHUSD Back in the buy zone now A little burst of Dollar strength on back of DXY touching near term support at 92.62 has seen all the alts v USD weaken. BCH is now coming back into the buy zone, either from 1539 if touched or alternatively on a break above the dynamic from the highs.There have been two minor spikes through this line but both have failed. We want to see some buying power emerge and green candles as it breaks that dynamic and to hold up on any retest. It;s getting very close now...be ready for it. Stops need to stay under the dynamic by 20 points or so when the break occurs.

Bitcoin: BTCUSD Number of the BeastBITCOIN: BTCUSD Turn your back on Bitcoin for a few hours and ...just wish we'd all been around at 2.30 am GMT: The first really big bear engulfing red candles appear, smashes through the parallel (our long stop has already been taken for 25 point loss, earlier) the panic the increases and Bitcoin falls to the perfect spot...falling away the beginning of the structure to the immediate left of the chart...you know this behaviour, it's text-book stuff. What a buy with stops underneath. So damn perfect too. See, even in a panic, Bitcoin behaves in a technically perfect way. It doesn't every day, but a hell of a lot of the time. So we missed the big moment of the day. Now we know the new line in the sand that separates bulls from bears: 8533 is new number of the beast for now. The line rises higher with each failed attempt. Bullish, still So Bitcoin continues to grind higher after that failed bear raid left an enormous pin bar at 8533: buying interst down there is strong, therefore. Most of the price action is still taking place around the uppermost parallel... The Chinese session has seen Bitcoin bid up to new highs, driving higher all session once the bear raid had failed so abjectly. Even at these levels it's still not working out for them. So Alts v Bitcoin have taken a hammering and only now have a little respite as Bitcoin unwinds an overbought condition at the highs. Once again want to wait to see how this consolidation develops and what pattern Bitcoin slings together next. Looking like a dynamic is forming off the top which we can maybe use as an entry point later when it gets broken to the upside. We don't have to trade every minute, though younger bulls might disagree. So it's a waiting game here for now. In meantime look at the chart action last night. Order, perfect order within a moment of chaos. Till later.

Bitcoin: BTCUSD Update Key Levels inside the parallels now Bitcoin BTCUSD Badly Drawn Boy Wow. Broken the upper parallel and now consolidating around where we sold. It looks like a buy from 8530 but must hold here or it's likely to fall away more, potentially back to 8410 at lowest so stops on longs from here need to be quite tight underneath. Bit slow to see the new fantastic parallels emerging...should have used that and not the other dying parallels from the last couple of days as exit.My slowness, looking at other stuff - But have left the old parallels on which may look confusing but it's interesting so see these old resistance lines now seem to act as support, containing the consolidation inclose up...draw these lines on your chart! They live...so no bying under that big new powerful parallel now in control of the upside, and careful with day trading...you can seewhat it's doing...dancing between the parallels...so wild. Use this...fine lines..fishing...for now. It should build a little flag as it does it...two strikes on the lower line will show hot. Otherwise not so much near term And the Alts V Bitcoin will get some respite now so they are a buy...You got this now. yes?

Cashing out on market asymmetries Skip to the second paragraph to get to the point, first paragraph discusses observations... What you see in the bottom of the screen is a script I recently published just for fun; it's a momentum measurement for bitcoin against several fiat pairs and crypto pairs, and all summed together. The top of the screen is essentially the btc price, but somewhat more reactive. What is really interesting here is that on the morning of 21.11 the red line (which represents the sum of bitcoin momentum across multiple pairs) took a steep dive to an order of magnitude less than it has often been at (bottom pink circle), an obvious red flag for long holders. Then 3 hours later the XBTUSD price took a quick decline as well! The steep decline in the momentum looks largely responsible by the DASHBTC pair, but took a few hours to show in the BTCUSD pair. The reason so many prices of cryptos are stable is because of the work of the people doing arbitrage, this normalizes the market. However in this case it took longer than expected, possibly for a number of reasons, due to time of day, blockchain verification delays, or simply there are not so many arbitrage bots on the DASHBTC pair, or any other reason... Then 3 hours later the bitcoin price followed suit. The insane divergence of DASHBTC from the overall value of BTC can be taken in only 2 ways: Dash has a sudden market strength, or money is moving from BTC to DASH, possibly foreshadowing a decline in BTC. What would be interesting is a suite of indicators that measure how volume moves through a specific crypto to find its overall worth (ie. multiple exchanges and multiple pairings). If a lot of money is being poured into, or out of, one pair then the overall value may also be effected with a time delay. Enough of a time delay to get a great position (like the 3 hours mentioned above). I will need to think about how to appropriately measure this, normalizations schemes, volumes, momentum, price, ect... If anyone wishes to discuss ideas related to this I would be more than happy to talk. Cheers!

GODD XAUUSD How Gold Traders stay ahead with aid of DXY chartGold: XAUUSD 1.25% How DXY -0.25% is the gold 1.24% trader's best friend right now So far gold 1.24% has behaved in the bear-mangling mode expected of it since the dollar broke down below key support on DXY -0.25% at 94.26 (right hand chart) but it wasn't too smart to let it go again at 1290. That rally on Friday was vicious for bears - the shape of price action as gold 1.24% turned resistance at 1281 into support shows the market adjusting before gold 1.24% powers 16 points north, a volte-face - which you would have been expecting if you've been experienced enough, wise enough to run the two charts in tandem. If you don't you're dealing with a blindfold over one eye... The pin bars on the one hour chart here show strong rejection at 1296.78 down to current levels at 1293 and a streak of uncontested green...very rare for a space like that to remain uncontested and it should flip back to 1288, and potentially to 1284 before it rallies again. On the other side of the street, we can see that DXY -0.25% is flipping in a range beween 93.99 (the high for the week was exactly 93.99 as forecast, giving a precise point at which to sell gold 1.24% - with stops only triggered in event that DXY -0.25% breaks above 94 and holds, in which case DXY -0.25% is going up and Gold 1.24% is going back down. Just the best duo/tandem trade there is in almost any market anywhere. Use it or lose it. Probably the best companion a gold 1.24% trader can ever have. DXY: Dollar index 0.11% Through all the noise of currency pairs and most commodity markets there is a still, small, much neglected voice that can tell usually show you the bigger picture/helicopter view of all that close combat fighting going on below. Not always, but usually. DXY -0.25% , so far since the breakdown at 94.26, has been very helpful. It's flipping between 94 key resistance and 93.50 key near term support and this is what's causing such grief and whipsaw in the price of gold 1.24% . Right now it's giving mixed near term signals... believe it will break lower still eventually, but the chart is not confirming that here....it's just double bottomed at 93.50...was Ok to bounce here for sure but that was quite a big bounce - pins at top and botttom of move...just near term a little confusing, at least to this writer anyway. But gold 1.24% is toppy -0.73% near term and DXY -0.25% is showing a double bottom near term. If it can rally from here then it should push back up to the 93.99 where it should meet profit takers. (Do same with gold 1.24% shorts at that point). And only if DXY -0.25% can then manage to break above 94 and hold is the tide turning back in favour of Dollar, at which point we look to short gold 1.24% again. And on the other side, if at any point DXY -0.25% breaks 93.50 it enters a zone of uncertainty/whipsaw between 93.50 and 93.35 where positions can sudddenly reverse - like quicksand on a map this zone cannot be trusted - a zone to avoid if possible. However, if at any point DXY -0.25% is driven below 93.5 for more than 2 hours it will become llikely that support is eroding and it should start to fall away quite hard to 92.80-92.62 - and thereby triggering aggressive gold 1.24% longs.

Bitcoin: BTCUSD Something for the Weekend Breakout ScenarioBitcoin: BTCUSD Update into the Weekend:Scenarios The battle continues and finally the bears have made an impression on the upper parallel, pushing price down to 7800, where pin bars from earlier show some demand (not shown on chart, but significant to the very near term now). There is no winner yet, though. It can move sideways from here, meeting demand off the parallel and more still at 7717 freezer lid level and down to 7660 at an absolute pinch, building a new rectangular range between 7717 and 7990-8000. It can move sideways further, out of the pull of the parallels, large and small, but still be Ok so long as 7717-7660 holds - but it would be a sign of strength if it could avoid all that, use the large parallel as support and then power higher, and back through the neck line again - if and when it gathers enough buying power to manage that, this next time could well prove successful in breaking the last bears that still stand strong at 7990-8000. So far, from their viewpoint, looking down the mountain from 8000 with stops just above, there's nothing to scare them...yet. OK, that big bear raid first thing in London didn't work out so well for them this time, but their stops still haven't pinged yet. When that happens and 8000 is broken by 20 points it becomes another breakout/momentum play. It will maybe need China to open to create enough volume...they like breakouts - but we need to see one now to add to long positions from here...should it come (but think it will at some point this weekend even if they try to sell it off in China first thing Saturday) it could well be explosive in nature. Doesn't have to be but could well be. And once 8000 is actually broken the upside is, by nature of the beast, incalculable. Anyone who says they have a value for Bitcoin is not to be trusted any more than asking your dog how much it's worth. No one has ANY clue. It could be 15000, it could be 30000, it could be 5000 and it could be 5 one day. No one knows. You KNOW that though. And it's enough to make money - big money - either way. You don't even have to believe in Bitcoin per se, just believe what the chart is telling you, and no one else. And so to the poential for downside this weekend coming: the big parallel remains the first line of support, and then 7717-7660 (stops for remaining longs from 7570 tight under 7660). So if 7717 fails and then 7060 also then fails we have a near term problem emerging and Bitcoin should fall away to 7531 again and the rectangular range suddenly expands from 8000 at top to 7531 at bottomwith 7717 as the dividing line between the three...fantastic for day traders, trading between these lines. This could take a large part of Saturday to play out if we see it..again great for day traders, a nice wide range to play within, potentially developing this weekend as a consequence of this type of price action, if 7717 gives way, as above. But, the bull case is strong whilst above 7717 and still just fine at 7531. But if this fails at any point this weekend, the bears are getting control again. It's a buy on any retest of 7531 with stop just under 7500 for rally to 7719. Then close if a day trader and only go long again from 7730 to 7980 with a stop under 7700, trading between the three blue lines. Long Story short: Turn aggressively bullish again on a break above 8000 by 20 points, that can be sustained (very careful here as it could explode upwards, and potentially downwards too, so stops need using and the risk of being hit quite high so they need to be some way away from 8000 if longs are triggered, at least 100) This is still tough work but the bulls won't quit... That parallel above, just holding it back now...if it breaks above it soon, then the break out could well follow soon after. Good for swing traders. Otherwise we'll be heading for a Saturday made for day-traders, as above. And turn aggressively bearish again only a break below 7531 looking to short rallies back u
