Bitcoin Bull Trap and Big Players Buying BTCThe Bitcoin bottom could be in but I don't think the big players are ready for the price to go higher. Imagine you are a big player with a copious amount of capital and you want to put it in bitcoin before the next bull run. You know this next run will be a big one. Heck, it could be the mania phase of the actual bubble believed to be in 2017. You have a problem though, one that normal retail traders don't have. You can't just go in with one big order, or even a few, slightly smaller, big orders. If you did, you would quickly eat up all the supply and price would move away from you very fast. You have influence over the market with your amount of capital. So why pay a higher price, when you can get the best price? So you decide you will only buy when there is enough sellers to soak up your orders. This is known as iceberg orders. I suggest you do a little research on them and Wyckoff theory to better understand it. As the big players start to get in, they will have to get in at higher prices. The retail investors beginning to notice and the price drops stop going lower. Eventually, the sentiment shifts and there aren't enough sellers anymore. As a big player, this is a problem. You aren't finished buying and you're definitely not going to buy at a premium. Remember, as a big player you still have some influence over the market. So you decide to take a little profit and at the same time stop the price from going higher in hope it will fall back down to your buy zone, where all your iceberg orders are sitting. Your a smart big player. You know how the retail side likes to buy and sell. You know what indicators they look at, what patterns they watch for, and how irrationally they can react. You notice an opportunity to make some good profit. There's a "golden cross" setting up. There is a support area waiting to be broken. The RSI is sending signals. Let's trap the retail side! You decide to wait for the golden cross to happen and you flood the market with buy orders. This will make price spike. Everybody thinks it's about to go parabolic. FOMO (fear of missing out) kicks in and retail reacts and buys irrationally. Perfect time to sell your bags. Cha-ching. This may even be enough to send prices low enough to fill up your buy orders as well! I believe this is the end of the bear market and big players are getting in position. Bitcoin has a lot of emotion behind it. Especially after the last bull run. This next one will be a mania. There is more awareness this time around and it will send bitcoin to the moon. Buying anywhere in this area is still good for the long haul, but if you have limited capital like me, maybe try to get the most bang for you buck and buy the dip. Don't buy emotionally. Always do your own research and form your own ideas!! If you are in it for the long term, having your own personal view and reasons will help your confidence when things don't go your way, and may help paint a picture you didn't see before.

Bitcoin's next move? Pump? Dump? Whales? Let's find out!Hey, what's good homies! I feel like its been weeks since I posted, but I finally got it done. In my previous article, I did say I have a big article coming up, and this is it. This post in particular has many things to cover, so let's get started! Let's quickly summarise some key points throughout this post: - Ascending triangle - 6k support is now a 6k resistance - The forever downtrend resistance is now a forever downtrend support. - Whale manipulation - Theory: Once it touches 6k for the first time in a long time, the price will most likely fail to continue, thus dumping back onto 4k support. - Finally entering the consolidation phase, we're currently neutral with the 3 planes of existence (I'll show you what I mean) A few things in this first screenshot. It's on the daily or 12 hour which is almost the same thing. It will take a few weeks for it to pop, if its actually a triangle. There's like 2-3 wicks that broke the form which might contradict this ascending triangle, maybe something to look out for. If it does pop, it could trigger a 6k retest, which all falls into the whale's plan, something I've been theorising for a while. So if we look back a bit, we noticed that the price broke past the forever downtrend, that's already a huge sign that the market sentiment is turning. We've been slaves to this bear for long enough, and we've finally broken free from this bearish oppression, all thanks to that massive 1k pump back in 2nd of April. BTC's overall state is bullish, no question about that, there's plenty indicators that point that direction. This may sound silly but just like any other market, its only bullish until its not, I believe there needs to be a stronger pullback from the 1k pump back in 2nd of April before reaching higher highs which is still bullish but just needs time to cool down. If there's actually a dip coming, its only temporary before surging up to 6k, it stops at 6k because we know that it was once a strong support line that held for a whole year back in 2018, since we're retesting it, its now become an insanely strong resistance. Since the 6k support was so strong, its only make sense for our new resistance to be just as equally strong. So here's the secret plan, the whales will be dumping at the 6k resistance, mainly because the resistance is insanely strong anyway, so it makes sense to dump at that point in time. I can't guarantee that, but there's plenty of evidence to suggest that happening. So we pumped from 4k to 5k, so what's the price doing now? Did it run out of fuel? Well, I don't have an answer for that. However, there's something I and many others are certain of, we can expect a pump to 6k within a few weeks, no exact timeframe but it is inevitable. Here's the crazy part, when that does happen, the price will change market structure and fall back to a hard support in the 4k area. Just remember, when we see the next pump, the main stream media will start reporting this, and give false, misleading information as always, bait their viewers and fill their minds with junk. As a result, retail investors will see this and they'll repeat the same mistakes as always, and buy BTC very very late at 6k, and then get dumped on by whales, its very dirty I know, but this is how the game works. Its all fun and games when the price is up, until the whales decide the make a move. Its important to realise that this was all planned and schemed by the whales, as always. History will always repeat itself in these markets, or any financial market for that matter. People don't learn, sadly. However, people like us who chart everyday and keep updated with accurate and authentic information do learn, thus the market rewards us for understanding the game, and punishes those who don't understand the game. (Screenshot by D4rkEnergy) "Lastly if we take a look at the Weekly Chart, you can see that the Bullish Momentum is getting bigger and bigger (even though the pace is not as great as before - but that is normal during a correction). Also the RSI is holding above level 50." -D4rkEnergY You see, the whales have been accumulating BTC since 3,300 USD which was back in Jan. They bought at 3.3k and will dump at 6k. That's a total profit of 90% (1.9x gain). They pretty much 2x their money without any guessing or gambling, they don't need to do any TA either. Whales have the power to plan and calculate these moves, which is why their always being blamed for market manipulation. Whales are not stupid, I wish they were, but they're not. To avoid getting destroyed in these markets, it's up to us as traders and investors to figure out their game, and play along with their rules. We're simply passengers getting on and off the train, we can't control the train. Once they dump, most people will lose their minds like always, yes its depressing to look at, but its not the end of the world. However, it does begs the question, once the market dumps from 6k, what can we expect now? This is where it gets fun, because I honestly believe we're at a very interesting stage in the market, now you've probably hear that line a million times a day but allow me to explain. It's interesting because we're literally stuck between a rock and a hard place. The strongest resistance right now is the 6k one, and we have 3 levels of support. Support #1 is at 4925 USD, Support #2 is at 4K-4.4K, and lastly Support #3 is currently at 3k-3.2k. The last two are specifically is a trend line supports. This means that the market can't bounce upward or drop downwards either, the market wants to stay sideways until the it feels like doing something. My screenshot has defined 3 areas, or planes of existence as I call it. Heaven, earth, and hell. Heaven means we're bullish 100% if we break the 6k resistance, I'd confirm a bull run 100%. Earth means we're neutral, we're stuck in the blue area, bouncing between support and resistance (consolidation). And lastly, we have hell, the red area, which was a stage we just recently passed, we can literally say "We went through hell and back." Something definitely worth celebrating, because we earned it folks! The price has found itself a stable place to stay, but for how long is another story, it can only rest and take a vacation to recharge itself for the next bull run, also known as the "consolidation phase." The consolidation phase is simply a stage in the market where it needs time to rebuild itself, it needs to time rest before changing cycles. In other words, its basically a bear hibernating, once the bear finishes hibernating it wakes up and starts wreaking havoc. So in market terms, when the bear wakes up is exactly when the market wakes up and decides to start a bull run. The reason I say this is because the 6k resistance is too strong at this time to break through, and the forever downtrend has become an extremely strong support that it can't go back into hell again, this means we're stuck between a rock and a hard place, which leaves us with only one option, to consolidate. The market is trying to say "let me hibernate." Its been a long night, market is tired, and it just came back from a hard day's work, literally going from 1k to 20k and then from 20k back to 3.2k. I hope this post sparked some ideas, and gave some value once again, let me know what you guys think in the comments, I reply to all of them! And don't forget to like and follow me on TradingView!

Sssh... The SECRET BITCOIN PLAN - The Whale MindsetDear Friends D4rkEnergY is going to tell you a secret - something about THE BIGGER PLAN with Bitcoin. I have told you many times, Bitcoin is extremely bullish at the moment. So many things are pointing up BULLISH SIGNS - We have escaped the down trend line - Since December 15th where our uptrend started we have had increasing volume . We also call that Price/Volume Trend Convergence, which basically means that is supports the ongoing trend. - Bullish Momentum is huge - Increasing Global Market Cap and Volume , which tells us that the Market Sentiment is bullish I'm PRETTY sure that BITCOIN will go higher than 6,000 USD! WHY AM I SO SURE ABOUT THAT? First of all our Elliott Waves and what I wrote above make it plausible. But we will ALSO do this because it will be a smart and clever move for the whales - If we go that high, main stream medias will start talking about a BTC comeback and it will attract more retail investors. Retail investors will start to buy up BTC again. And hereafter when everyone think we are going for a new bull run, will the smart money and WHALES STRIKE! They will dump Bitcoin and take profit, which is around 100 % -they have accumulated since 3,300 USD as you can see from my chart. Let's see! And give a LIKE! D4!

Crypto Top-12 Marketcap Relative Price vs. USD ATHThesis: during the bear market and until significant price momentum builds to bring new participants into the market, alts will primarily be used by whales as a method by which to manufacture BTC for the next bull run. In so doing, they will have to move funds between high caps in cycles in order to do so, because not enough new money will be entering the market to fuel a market-wide uptrend. Thus, determining which coins have exhausted their runs and which coins are next in the cycle should be very advantageous to those looking to stack BTC during this reset period. To that end, I've normalized each coin in the current top-12 in marketcap to their late 2017 and early 2018 highs, this time adjusting all coins by their USD ATH. Interested to track this and the companion chart of all these alts vs. their BTC ratio ATH to see if it helps identify cycling of funds between the majors. Link to companion idea vs. BTC ratio ATHs:

I believe this idea has merit - jumping on the "cheap" majors when I first put this idea out there would have enabled one to get in on ADA before it started rising from its range low, and it would have really made BCH stick out as the last remaining major to not have a 2019 pump until just this week. Looking forward, I would be trying to target majors that are going sideways or coming off of recent declines and that are cheaply price relative to the other alts that would fit that bill. To me, that means that XRP, TRX, and particularly ETH are attractive options to pile in on if you are in a risk-on mode towards highcaps.

Changes in the bitcoin price predictions with google trends. I see, it exists alredy some changes of the behavior of google trends vs. bitcoin price ... 1.) The price falled in November 2018 AND the people wanted to know - Why? 2.) If the interesting falling (google trends lowers), some (big) investors trying to buy a big chunk - it results in a slowly (!!!) deflation... ((they don't want a hype!!! They are clever... They trying to regulate it... The Trustee at MtGox don't moved the remaining 165000 bitcoins to the market - so I am neutral with a little LONG of course. I investing already in ALTcoins again. Every bitcoin hype followed by an ALTcoin hype... But we have some ALT already, they are near to bitcoin: Bitcoin CASH, Bitcoin GOLD, ... AND RSK Smart Bitcoin :D But my favourites: Obyte (with DAG), Ignis, Ardor, ...)) Please see my post on the bitcoinlak also about this changes in the price analyse. I am ifinta on the bitcointalk.org since 2011. Please use my UNLICENCED ideas :) from bitcointalk.org also... bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=28645;sa=showPosts I use google trends in analyse since ~2013... I published this kind of price prediction here in Nov. 2015 :)

Bitcoin Getting ready for the next bullrunBitcoin is getting ready Obvious descending wedge .. breakout to the upside, target is there also. 'Capitulation' already happened, volume spike 'Whale-wallets' are becoming active to fuel it HIT THE LIKE BUTTON (even if you don't like it) Disclaimer: .. i need a chart for "Told you so" in the future (in order to be a good anal-ist, you need to be able to brag later on, how you saw it months ago) .. if it breaks down to zero i can always show my other chart with "Stan Marsh" and still be able to say "Told you so" ;)

Manipulations !!Manipulations bitmex whales did good move by liquidating all high leverage longs .. which i warned about it before .. in this kind of markets you cant use high leverage.. this dump just hit the support channel as we see on chart .. 50 EMA already crossed over the 200 EMA and retesting it again .. btc still in the uptrend channel and breaking it at 3730ish will cost btc a big move down to the next fib points between 0.5 and 0.618 fibs as shown on chart .. 3650/3542 areas so longing scenario would be fine if u start laddering it from the uptrend channel which pointed on chart to the way down to 0.618 and stop your loss under 3500ish shorting now dangerous ,. im still waiting a pullback and im fully bullish on btc .. just don't use high leverage 5x maximum good luck guys

How I see the BTC market developing First -- I think TA is possible with longs/shorts charts there are active support and resistance points that may lead the btc price second -- The top right chart is the ratio between longs and shorts... Today I've noticed increasing longs and decreasing shorts through this sideways period, today in-particular, there have been large moves in these charts and little corresponding moves in price. I'm not exactly sure how price can be reacting so little to sharply decreasing shorts and increasing longs but it is Bitfinex so I'm sure there's some shady shit going on in the background. I don't see bitcoin having another major bull run for a couple years but I do think price has found a bottom. I don't see predictions for 1500 or 2000 as being viable levels that btc spends a prolonged amount of time. Hashrate is increasing again so this is a good sign that the mining purge is over. Only way I see it possible that there is no move in price despite changing leveraged longs and shorts is a whale has an insane btc wall that he's buying into (convinces others to sell their coins so he ends up with net profit with price increase)

BTC Range Bound and DownLike the tile says I am looking for $BTC to be range bound to short over the next ten to twenty weeks. $BTC was trapped in this very location back in 2017 where it spent nine weeks and traded from early August to the middle of October before it broke out of its range. $BTC is still holding under the 200 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) where it broke under back in February of 2018 which is significant because $BTC has not been under the 200 EMA since August of 2015. I am using a logarithmic scale on my chart because I have it on good authority that the institutional investors use this type of scale to make technical analysis decisions. Whats the importance of how institutional money uses charting to conduct technical analysis? It's important because it's institutional money that is pushing and driving the market. How can that be, you ask? Well, the crypto space is like the wild wild west. An unregulated decentralized space that's prime for old school market manipulation. Truly a shark's wet dream. Think about it for a minute. Who knew that the CME and the CBOE were going to launch $BTC futures contracts and be given approval to do so? Not many people that's who. The Winklevoss twins knew and many of their friends and family not to mention the top leaders and members of the SEC, FINRA, CFTC, CME and the CBOE just to name a few. It probable took two to three years of work, research and technological innovation to stand up these new financial instruments. Then they partner with Gemini? Why would Wall Street use Gemini's auction price for bitcoin to quote their $BTC futures contracts? Gemini is by far not the best or largest exchange by volume or any other factor for that matter. One could speculate that the twins are obedient servants to the master and will heel at command! Only the top big money traders were invited to trade the open of the contracts launch. How do I know this? When I found out the contracts went live I tried to trade them through my TD Ameritrade account and was rejected so I called customer support and was politely told to pound sand up my ass because my money was no good at the bar! That's when I realized that some of the investors that we invited to trade it first were like cut bait and just there to provide equity for the sharks. You know how the old saying goes right? If you look around the table and you cant find the mark then the mark is you. This also helped me avoid getting caught up in the FOMO and getting trapped in positions where I would have to DCA like crazy just to get back to break even. See this old pump and dump has been around along time and it goes back tens of thousands of years. It's human psychology and the Oligarchy are masters of that psychology and the manipulation there of. If you go and look at the CFTC commitments of traders reports you will see the smart money was heavy short from jump street and are still heavy short. Add that information with the massive advertising campaign that started back in August 2017 and led up to the contract open and you have a classic boiler room pump and dump. Which was also perfect timing to get paid just before Christmas. I'm sure that in the small circle of the Oligarchy the Christmas of 2017 will live in infamy. You can relate this back to the Bugs Bunny Cartoon's. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em! The Oligarchy realized the power of Bitcoin and the future implications that the loss of control over the established monetary system would have on their way of life and their suffocating choke hold over humanity. They realized that the spark had already been lit and the revolution is on! Since they were not invited to the party they devised a plan to slow the train down long enough to jump aboard and ride to uncharted territory. They paid their whores well just look at the twins and others like Jamie Dimon and how he sold that ass like a dirty gutter slut! Yea I said it Bitch! The institutional money (Sharks, Whales, Oligarchy) have been buying physical $BTC since they made the decision to launch Bitcoin Futures contracts over three years ago. When price peaked over $19,000 they were taking profits selling physical $BTC on the exchanges and shorting $BTC futures contracts via the CBOE and the CME. The $BTC price back in 2015 averaged around $250.00 a Bitcoin. That's the primary reason Bitcoin could fall back between $1,000 to $1,500 because there is no big money to defend price until much lower levels. One week after the $BTC Futures contract opened on December 19, 2017 there were 828 contracts long compared to 2,199 contracts short. The 828 long's were controlled by 18 individual traders compared to the 2,199 short's that were controlled by just 9 individual traders. This correlates perfectly to market statistics that have proven year over year that the majority of traders loose money and the masses are generally wrong. The point of my post is to say that personally I will be moving forward with caution. I will be watching the CFTC's Commitment of Traders weekly reports and waiting for a change in Relative Volume (RVOL). As the chart shows big moves are signaled buy spikes in RVOL. We are still in a active pattern of short pressure signaled by the recent spike in RVOL on the bear candles that I have illustrated above. Stay safe Crypto Soldiers and keep the faith because this is the future of money and they know it. They are riddled with fear each and every day because they know the gig is up and its just a matter of time until mankind unites and overthrows the taskmaster! Power to the people, all people.

BTCUSD edging upwardUsing the same chart as posted yesterday you can see how BTC price movements retested it's 50/200 moving averages. Great scalping opportunities from the first break down to now and they'll continue. Use your 5minute and 1 minute charts to confirm and ladder your stop limits on upward plays. It Looks like 50ema has slightly crossed 200 as typing. Expecting some pullback and short consolidation to begin. Watching TL's and movement on 1&5 min. Also, I'm watching hourly ma/ema ranges and gaps. If bulls can hold positions even with retesting and If higher highs and low's continue I'll watch for low 3700 areas to be targeted.3500 and 3480 range should be retested. Not at all unlikely not for 3400-3460 to be retested...holding those zones and the 200MA is key for bulls. RSI overbought across lower tf's

BTC – are whales and institutions accumulating?So Guys! As the market is a bit recovering some of you probably wonder whether whales and institutions accumulate crypto assets. Well, this is a good question and quite difficult to find an easy answer. Professionals are highly cautious in accumulating new assets and often invest in a way that it has minimal impact on the short-term price trend of the asset or the currency. The don’t buy 1000 BTCs in one moment. They use bots to execute a trade with the small pieces such as 100/ 1000 USD. Simply they don’t want us to know they are accumulating. The sign of accumulation might be the fact that the price is very low right not. Whales and institutions have enough money to control the price of a certain asset. During accumulation, they take care of the lowest price as possible. Once they finish, the price might explode. Moreover, institutional investors tend to invest in speculative assets through the over-the-counter (OTC) market. In the case of Bitcoin, due to its lack of liquidity, institutional investors have to rely on trusted custodians like Coinbase Custody and Fidelity Digital Assets to purchase or sell large sums of BTC. OTC market operators and custodial solution providers are not obliged to share their trading volumes and as a result, data held by OTC exchanges are rarely released to the public. Currently, the demand for Coinbase Custody, Bakkt, and Fidelity DIgital Assets is one of the limited ways to justify institutional demand for crypto and recently, Bakkt confirmed that the demand is growing rapidly. This is clear that many crypto projects are still developing, delivering milestones, making agreements with big tech giants hiring new people. This whole ecosystem is growing rapidly which is not reflected in the price yet thus it is a big sale-off. Purchase now will pay off in 2019. No doubt about that. The whole technical analysis is on the chart. Enjoy! If you like our job don’t forget to give a like and follow our profile. Your comments are much appreciated. MASSIVE Hugs! WBM Team

Bitcoin phenomenonTechnically, a downward trend and a sharp change in direction for the price of $6k will not be. This time the story will repeat, but already in a different time interval, a sharp increase during the half year, as it was not last expected, to make the next multiple volume of purchases, we'll need the same multiple time interval. In search of plankton Today, at a price of $6,500 per unit, bitcoin trading volumes are declining because there is actually no one to buy it from anyone. Since its emission is limited, the spread is beyond the spread, commission over commission it flows in one "smart" hands and it becomes not interesting for the community. Moreover, in fact, most of it is already on the stock exchanges and some of them, judging by the publications, do not allow withdrawing funds even in cryptocurrency, which is nonsense for the blockchain itself and in turn not only undermines the trust of users, but also runs the risk of in justice finders. In any case, the price will fall. The manipulators who are keen on the game should not lose sight of the fact: the more bitcoins is in one hand, the less it is interesting to others. The phenomenon of Bitcoin, in contrast to its surrogates, is that personal interest in it directly depends on the public. Whatever “news” is created, it is obvious that in the present conditions they are not able to stimulate the intentions of the real economy adherents. In order to change the situation, Bitcoin will first have to be re-distributed, decentralized for its intended purpose, or as they say now: scale until the price drops to acceptable, i.e. now, taking into adjusted for inflation, it will be somewhere in the range of $ 1-4k (depending on how quickly the measures are taken and new ideas* are voiced to improve the industry). If you entered the cold water to the waist, then most likely you will dive. No matter how much one would like, whales just need to dive into the depths, it will be very natural, and then its ascent to the next logical summit will take 5-10 years.

REQ BTC BINANCE. Are the whales there? Taking a look at this coin on the recent few months view... it appears to have hit a bottom and that there are forces seeking to consolidate motion within the Orange trend line channel. Subsequently a recent pump has pushed the total gains since the reversal point (see point A ) to near 113%, indicated great performance overall... However... the recent momentum that follows the green trend line needs to break out of the orange trend line channel before we can see how these gains will hold. If the movements of the whales are enough to get the smaller level traders keeping that orange channel alive then we potentially can see a pump emerging along the green trend line. However, if this recent pump fails to produce steady motion along the orange trend channel and we move back to test it's bottom we will see a correction to the bottom of these past few months sideways action.

These 2 WHALES told me BTC is about to PUMPBelow you will find the chart with log scale so you can see both whales in one frame. By using the curve tool to form support and resistance lines we can see what I call the "Whale Fractal". It is basically a fractal from the past which played out in the last correction in 2014. How Does the "Whale Fractal" work: The base of it all is that markets move in sine waves. This means they constantly go up and down. When a sine wave starts to go up again the prices have to curve up again and this is what we are seeing right now. The gradient of the sine wave at the bottom is obviously 0 and now look at the last triangle (or the curve). And as you can see the gradient is also 0 right now. This fractal consists of 3 falling wedges followed by one descending triangle (with an H&S pattern inside the descending triangle). These triangles start very steep and get flatter over time. I expect the next Bull Run to start when we get to the fin of the whale (crossover of the two curves). The whale fractal is basically a combination of sine waves and squeezing buyers and sellers (which means bearish momentum is gone). This is very interesting to me: What is very interesting to note is that both the descending triangle and the H&S pattern are both bearish patterns. However, in the whale fractal, they are actually signaling the beginning of the fin of the whale (which means an incoming reversal). Both of these bearish patterns will probably shake out a lot of people and this where the market pops off again. Where others see a bear and depression I see a whale and profits. This, of course, would also work in the other direction (Dolphin Fractal) which would be the same fractal but just flipped upside down indicating downside momentum. If you think this information is helpful, please support my posts by your LIKEs! It will motivate me to write more posts and share with you my ideas about the markets. Thank you!
