Using BTC Dominance With Current Bitcoin PriceSome people monitor bitcoin price along with bitcoin dominance to help them make trading decisions. Although they are not iron laws, here are some potential outcomes that various combinations of BTC price and dominance may be indicative of.
1. When the price and dominance of BTC are rising, it could signal a potential bitcoin bull market.
2. When the price of BTC is rising but BTC dominance is falling, it could signal a potential altcoin bull market.
3. When the price of BTC is falling but BTC dominance is rising, it could signal a potential altcoin bear market.
4. When the price and dominance of BTC are falling, it could signal a potential bear trend for the entire crypto market.
5. While these two factors do not imply a definite bull or bear market, historical observations suggest a correlation.
A Dive Into My Swing Trading Approach (+setup) This video was a short synthesis of my swing trading approach. For the amount of information I presented, I'm not expecting to successfully being able to convey my means and ways in one short video, but I'm glad if I could at least show a different perspective.
Some important things I forgot to mention:
- The tolerance for identifying a visual weak liquidity pattern is 2 ticks, 3 ticks during highly volatile days (for the ES). This can change from one market to another. Anything more than 2/3 ticks is considered a move of conviction supported by strong liquidity, a market that has the confidence to see what's beyond a certain point to then either sharply reverse or move forward.
- Using this method I CANNOT know what the market makers are exactly doing, there is no way to know, they will always be a step ahead of any brilliant retail trader. However, we can understand their logic and the weak traders' logic, the latter is the type we want to trade against.
SETUP
As I said, I favour a short trade, but as of today I have to remain on the sidelines. During this times is important to be flexible and change ones bias if that's what the market is suggesting. I will post my set up (if any) in due course.
What Is Market Capitalization?
1. Definition
A. For a cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, market capitalization (or market cap) is the total value of all the coins that have been mined.
B. It’s calculated by multiplying the number of coins in circulation by the current market price of a single coin.
2. How is it measured?
C. Market Cap = Price × Circulating Supply
3. What can you do with market cap?
D. Market cap allows you to compare the total value of one cryptocurrency with another so you can make more informed investment decisions.
E. Cryptocurrencies are classified by their market cap into three categories (Large-cap , Mid-cap , Small-cap)
4. Large-cap cryptocurrencies
F. Including Bitcoin and Ethereum, have a market cap of more than $10 billion.
G. Investors consider them to be lower risk investments because they have a demonstrated track-record of growth and often have higher liquidity.
H. They can withstand a higher volume of people cashing out without the price being dramatically impacted.
5. Mid-cap cryptocurrencies
I. Have market caps between $1 billion and $10 billion.
J. They generally are considered to have more untapped potential upside but also higher risk.
6. Small-cap cryptocurrencies
K. Have a market cap of less than $1 billion and are most susceptible to dramatic swings based on market sentiment.

Dividend - 2.44% paid annually
A great prospect for holding for 6 months / Warning: keep an eye on the economy regarding the recession and possible job losses, this could drive the stock down rapidly.

Tesla: Stock Split on August 25, 2022. Hello all. On August 5th, 2022, Tesla announced its already approved, 3 for 1 stock split. Each stockholder who is on record as of August 17, 2022 will receive two additional shares of the tesla stock on August 24, 2022. As of August 25, 2022 every stock holder will begin trading with the new adjusted stock split.
At the time of making this post the stock price is $900 meaning we can expect the price of the stock to go to around $300 after the split.
This will be a 66% drop or in other words 66% cheaper purchasing price. Definitely this will be a more comfortable range for small investors to purchase a pice of the company.
From the technical standpoint, we can picture a bear flag on the weekly timeframe with a potential downwards move pointing towards the $350 range. Weekly RSI is reaching its overbought territory and the volume remains rather bearish than relatively bullish due to the decline in volume.
If the price falls to $300 and then goes back up to at least where it is now, the price per share will increase by 200%.
In the link below find answers to common questions regarding this event.
Thanks for reading, and stay tuned. Enjoy.

#ETCUSDT #ETCBUSD #Ethereum #ETCUSDTPERPI think the $23.43-$25.00 range will stop the price going higher.
Of course, I have stated the range of further support below.
Support range 1: 11.47 - 10.75
Support range 2: 8.10 - 7.56
We are likely to have a temporary stop in the range of 13.99 - 12.67.

Crypto101 - How to spot a scam 👀Hi Traders, Investors and Speculators 📉📈
Ev here. Been trading crypto since 2017 and later got into stocks. I have 3 board exams on financial markets and studied economics from a top tier university for a year.
Hundreds if not thousands of new cryptocurrencies launch monthly. All with big promises of use case, flashing tech and a stock-standard wide mouthed YouTube guy telling you how high it will moon. With these new tokens and coins also comes many initial coin offerings (ICOs) that are often scams. The demand for these have grown, even despite the fact that many people get rugpulled. This mostly unregulated market makes for a perfect place to scam innocent people out of their money, with little consequences to the thieves. When it comes to cryptocurrencies, one of the biggest challenges for investors is not getting caught up in the hype. Digital currencies have quickly risen to prominence in the portfolios of many retail and institutional investors. At the same time, people are still shocked when something like the recent LUNAUSDT / TERRA happens.
Let's discuss a few ways to navigate this wild west market:
- Research the team. Perhaps the single most important success factor for any ICO or cryptocurrency is the developers and administrative team behind the project. The cryptocurrency space is dominated by major names, with superstar developers like Ethereum ETHUSDT founder Vitalik Buterin capable of making or breaking new projects simply by having their names listed on a development team. For that reason, it's increasingly common for scammers to invent fake founders and biographies for their projects.
- Check the whitepaper. The whitepaper should lay out the background, goals, strategy, concerns, and timeline for implementation for any blockchain-related project. Whitepapers can be incredibly revealing: companies that have a flashy website may reveal they lack a fundamentally sound concept. On the other hand, a company with a website containing spelling errors may have a whitepaper that indicates a rock-solid concept and a carefully conceived implementation plan.
- It it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The idea of getting rich quick on an investment in a hot new project sure is tempting. Keep an eye out as you look for new investment opportunities in the ICO and cryptocurrency spaces. Remember that projects sounding too good to be true , likely are. Spend time scrutinizing every detail, and assume that the absence of a piece of crucial information may be an attempt to hide an unsound model or concept. Look for outside sources to verify the legitimacy of any project before making an investment. Ask questions that you can't already find the answers to.
Now, the project on the chart - BURGERUSDT . BurgerCities crypto was developed on the BNB Chain ecosystem and is now linked to MetaFi . People compete for rewards on the BurgerCities platform. BurgerCities transitioned from being a DeFi product available on the BNB chain as Burgerswap to integrating DeFi and NFT into a more expansive metaverse space, producing uniform and standardized Web3 behavioral metaverse universe. Being a metaverse-oriented project, BurgerCities supports the NFT concept making it possible for users to earn returns through gameplay.
Don't get me wrong; I am not stating that Burger coin is a scam - I am merely pointing out that you should always do your due diligence research on new coins / projects, and be extra cautious when the coin / token has a funny name.

US02Y/US10Y bonds signals end to market rally. Bear FlattenerUS02Y up ~6%
US10Y up ~0.12%
Definition of a Bear Flattener = market go down.
Is it a perfect indicator? Of course not. But the tendency is that bear flatteners mean money is coming out of the market and going into short term bonds where it can come out of the quickest if market turns around. So the short term bonds act as a kind of pump/dump for the market. We are getting bear flattener headwinds ahead of CPI print next week.
Next week maybe market flattens out, momentum dies, slow stochastic falls below 80, and price sets up to go below prior "higher lows".
Keep on alert.
GUCCI now accepts APECOIN 🚀Hi Traders, Investors and Speculators📈📉
Ev here. Been trading crypto since 2017 and later got into stocks. I have 3 board exams on financial markets and studied economics from a top tier university for a year.
Great news for the cryptocurrency community, Italian luxury fashion house Gucci announced that it now accepts ApeCoin (APEUSDT) in a Thursday Twitter announcement last week. Gucci customers are able to pay with the help of a QR code that gets sent to them via email. They announced via tweet that they are now accepting ApeCoin payments via BitPay. Select Gucci boutiques in the USA expand the range of cryptocurrencies available for in-store purchases, yet another step in the Gucci House’s exploration of Web3. For the first time ever, holders of this crypto currency will be able to buy physical goods with the coin that was derived from the BAYC economy.
This is bullish news for APEUSD, and for the crypto community as market adaptation and reach will increase. The more participants a market has, the more stable and less volatile it becomes. Think Gold , bonds etc.
While you're here ! Check out this update on Ethereum ETHUSDT :

US30. This Move Is Big! If you take a look at at the weekly timeframe you'll see US30 has been in a downtrend since February 2022. Stocks began to decrease significantly taking out 2021 higher lows where most people during the Covid began to invest heavily.
Now, in August 2022, if US30 can push past 33,462, the last lower high this could signal a positive opportunity for people who invest in stocks.
However, if price shows a bearish signal here, more downside could be seen.
I'd like to be hopeful in the scenario this index does present bullish opportunities.
If not, it's best to be prepared. I'll be watching this on the daily timeframe.
Thanks for reading.
Stellantis: combine the short and the long-term strategy!STLA:
The company is huge!
It's french-american and combines PSA (Peugeot, Citroen), Fiat, DS Automobiles, Chrysler with Jeep, Dodge, and many many others.
This company has a great future if the next generation products will arrive. Electrification will boost revenue and margins.
Short it the next weeks, you will see a correction based on no current model issues and probably less demand in China as well as supply chain issues.
But don't miss the right moment to invest after this correction ended.
- Owner earnings are >20% of current price => the company is cheap.
- Quick ratio = 0.98
- Current ratio = 1.15
- Cash change +8.5
- ROE = 0.254
- EPS 4,71
- No stock compensation -> very good value sign
- P/E = 2.8
The stock is cheap and undervalued.
THE MOST IMPORTANT FOREX FUNDAMENTALS 📰
Hey traders,
Even though I am a pure technician and I rely only on technical analysis when I trade, we can not deny the fact that fundamentals are the main driver of the financial markets.
In this post, we will discuss the most important fundamentals that affect forex market.
📍Unemployment rate.
Unemployment rate reflects the percentage of people without a job in a selected country or region.
Rising unemployment rate usually signifies an unhealthy state of the economy and negatively affects the currency strength.
📍Housing prices.
Housing prices reflect people's demand for housing. Rising rate reflects a healthy state of the economy, strengthening purchasing power of the individuals and their confidence in the future.
Growing demand for housing is considered to be one of the most important drivers in the economy.
📍Inflation.
Inflation reflects the purchasing power of a currency.
It is usually measured by evaluation of the price of the selected basket of goods or services over some period.
High inflation is usually the primary indicator of the weakness of the currency and the unhealthy state of the economy.
📍Monetary policy.
Monetary policy is the actions of central banks related to money supply in the economy.
There are two main levers: interests rates and bank reserve requirements.
Higher interest rates suppress the economy, making the currency stronger. Lower interests rates increase the money supply, making the economy grow but devaluing the national currency.
📍Political discourse.
Political discourse is the social, economical and geopolitical policies of the national government.
Political ideology determines the set of priorities for the ruling party that directly impacts the state of the economy.
📍Payrolls and earnings.
Payroll reports reflect the dynamic of the creation of new jobs by the economy, while average earnings show the increase or decrease of the earnings of the individuals.
Growing earnings and payrolls positively affect the value of a national currency and signify the expansion of the economy.
Pay closes attention to these fundamentals and monitor how the market reacts to that data.
What fundamentals do you consider to be the most important?

Gold bears Gold has been in a bear market and is showing significant signs of further moves to the downside.
We have further confluence with the DXY(Dollar gaining strength), Gold has spiked on a Strong resistance and is current pushing higher as of Tuesday(last week of the month).
I'm expecting a Pump and Dump on gold as it has to Trap Traders in the wrong side of the market before I pulsing to the downside.
I would like a Formation of a Bullish flag as to induce more buy as this will insure a breakage of those strong resistive areas. If a bullish inducing pattern does not occur, gold will push higher as to trigger buyers into the market.
It would be advisable to wait for breakage of Structure/Bullish inducer to occur as to get the best prices
Long REN on a clear break of 16 cent region1. 16 cent region has been clear resistance to the upside during the bear.
2. Little resistance above that until the 25-30 cent region.
3. Fundementals look strong on the asset which earns a decent APY without any token inflation, also keep an eye on ZeroDAO, Catalogfi and VarenX which are all building upon the REN protocol technology.
4. Plans to launch their own L1 to provide seemless crosschain liquidity and crosschain dapps in Q4.
100 pip gap just above us! When support finally broke @ 1.035-1.04 the Euro nose dived harder than an Al Qaeda pilot. I think its safe to say that structure has broken since then, and it looks like we could see that gap in resistance targeted this week. Horizon , my automated strategy, is currently in long as well. That gap needs filling, and I'm going to be the one to do it 🦸😎💪. Good luck this week!

If you understand this chart, you are not bullish for markets.If you understand this chart, you are not bullish for the U.S. / World Markets - (Opinion)
So I watch a lot of indexes for research purposes and fun honestly. Seeing how different sectors of finance move when fundamental, sentiment and technical news influences them has always been interesting to me. Recently while researching I came across a chart that made my heart sink. I never really experienced this in my life, as I've been studying monetary policy and trading for years at this point. This is the Hang Sang Index put up in contrast with the DOW Jones Industrial Average. Before you read this article do you know why I'm mirroring these two indexes? What assumptions can you take from these charts? Can you predict any high probability assumptions from your conclusions?
Let me break this down from a first principles perspective, which is the way I love teaching the most.
When looking at markets, the price action is moved through supply and demand. Especially when looking at indexes of these sorts, as they are largely referenced from the GDP (Gross Domestic Product) of a country, along with many other factors, of course.
When we look at these two indexes we notice that the HSI is slightly trailing the DOW over most of the time period. Why is this? It's because China is the worlds largest, supplier and conversely, the U.S. is the worlds largest demander. An assumption we can make here is that in more cases than not their markets move first due to this factor. This makes sense though, the west cannot generate a profit unless it has the materials for the goods and resources it wishes to produce and we need to pay before we receive those resources, in most cases.
So what can we extrapolate from all of this information? Well, HSI could in some cases be a leading indicator for the DOW and how the American markets will move and this can be confirmed on a macro level in this chart. Most of the major market crashes over the last 2 years can be viewed on this chart and if I had more data (Trading View) only had D going back to 2019) I'm sure I could show you much more correlation to these charts.
What's most concerning is where our markets and also geopolitical landscapes our markets are currently involved in. With supply chains breaking down around the world on continental size scales the availability and in some cases the sanctions being implemented around the world has thrown into effect one of the largest global financial crises I think we've seen in well over 250 years. Now this is why I wrote opinion on the top, because going back in the American Markets, the closest thing in the last 100 years I could put this into perspective to is of course, the Great Depression. Not to be confused with the Great Recession of 2008. I am saying I believe this is WORSE than what we've seen in over 100 years.
The U.S., EU, China and Russia's economies are making it increasingly difficult for free and fair trade around the world and we can see this in the large economic collapse we've seen since the end of 2019. The World Reserve Currency is now being attacked by several continents and it is safe to say the currency wars how now started between nations. You can see this in what many world economies have done to destabilize the U.S. Dollar. Things like the first time Russia defaulted on their debt in over 100 years. Chinas entire financial system in one of the worst shapes it has been in, ever. They are also "not able" to pay back a large amount of their debt to us in a U.S. Dollar amount. Tables are turning and this is why in America, they are seeing supply chains of their own breaking down. Prices of all of their commodities, goods & services skyrocketing. Cost of living in general becoming so expensive that repo and default rates are at decades long highs.
The decentralization of American goods & services was one of its best and worst ideas ever. It was amazing because it was able to outsource the materials and people it needed to create one of the largest market systems the world has ever known, but it's key to working is in the fair trade, positive affiliate and respect between the buyer & seller that makes that possible. When in a war-time economy as I believe we can safely say we are in, all chips are off the table.
I hope you understand what I'm trying to say here. Just a thought that's been on my mind the last couple months. I wish everyone peace love and prosperity <3 - Watson
VSBLTY Groupe VSBGF Continues Growing$VSBGF recently took a dip, not only because of the broader "risk-off" environment and economic headwinds... recently announcing 16.7 million shares at a $0.30 offering with a warrant for additional purchase of common stock at $0.50 as well as private sale of 10 mil units for $3 million USD.
Market response was bearish, on the surface this is seemingly bad as shareholders are diluted... however, peeling back the layers reveals Jay (CEO) and team are continuing to land big partnerships and agreements in the retail space.
DYOR and you'll find tremendous building tailwinds and a company delivering against a bullish impermanent plan and a very bright future.
Their tech is innovative and a significant value add to the market. Don't lose sight of what they're doing and don't fall asleep as the delivery begins yielding more revenue and in short order, profits.
