March 31 - BTC, SPX, DXY31st of March has consistently been either: a sharp turning point, a spike in trend action or a calling for a long-term trend reversal. S&P 500 and Nasdaq have followed this odd tendency correspondingly. For a few significant reasons below, I anticipate this year's 31st of March will astonish many of us.
Distinct Timing:
Alignment with KEY economic data readings:
--> Core PCE Price Index (MoM) is the reading. CNN on this index: "PCE, specifically the core measurement, is the Fed’s favored inflation gauge, since it provides a more complete picture of costs for consumers." Currently, it is undeniably the most significant factor which will drive markets to new equilibriums. Factors including: markets' indecisiveness (particularly large institutions); consistent past increases in the core PCE; and unexpectedly high most recent inflation reading in the UK (actual 10.4 vs expected 9.7) - do not make the next reading seem promising for bulls.
--> Eurozone inflation level will be vital, partly due to the mentioned recent surprise from UK's inflation reading. As this could potentially clarify whether the unexpected reading arose from global or solely UK-related factors.
Date Alignment:
1/ Last day of the month
2/ Last day of the working week (Friday)
3/ And of course, the day is March 31st :)

BTC trade ideas
BTC Market CapAs a student of the art of trading, I have been closely monitoring the current market conditions for Bitcoin (BTC). The market cap for BTC is currently at 532.07 billion dollars, with a resistance level of 558.859 billion dollars and a support level of 396.389 billion dollars.
Looking at the technical indicators, the 20-day moving average (MA) is currently at 480.492 billion dollars, and the 50-day and 100-day MAs are at 460.754 billion dollars and 416.37 billion dollars, respectively. The 200-day MA is at 387.499 billion dollars, indicating a bullish trend.
The CME gap and RSI:SMA indicators are showing signs of strength, indicating that BTC may continue its upward momentum. However, it is important to note that the MACD is currently at 49.043 billion dollars, which is relatively high, and the histogram and 200MA signal are at 25.361 billion dollars and 23.681 billion dollars, respectively. This suggests that there may be some potential for a correction or pullback in the near future.
As a trader, it is important to stay vigilant and to carefully monitor the market conditions. It may be wise to consider taking profits on any long positions if BTC reaches the resistance level of 558.859 billion dollars, and to look for opportunities to enter short positions if the support level of 396.389 billion dollars is breached.
Overall, while the technical indicators are currently bullish, it is important to remain cautious and to have a well-defined trading strategy in place to manage risk and to maximize potential profits.
What are the ways to profit from choosing an exchange wisely?Previously, we wrote about the free bonuses that exchanges provide us and how they ensure the speed of transactions and minimal slippage . In this idea we will talk about the interface of exchanges, the terminal and what are the main types of orders that should be on any terminal nowadays.
An interface of a cryptocurrency exchange should be user-friendly. We won’t use any product or service which repels us by its “packaging” on first impression. So let's check the most common mistakes and so called red-flags that exchanges make in their interface:
Cluttered Interface. This can make it difficult for us as users to navigate the exchange and find the information we need
Poor Navigation. If we can't easily find what we're looking for, we're likely to become frustrated and leave the exchange. It's important for exchanges to have clear and intuitive navigation
Lack of Mobile Optimization. You have already known all the importance of mobile-optimized interface. (Mobile devices were responsible for 43% of all cryptocurrency transactions in 2022)
Confusing Terminology. Cryptocurrency can be complex, especially for newbies. It's important to use clear and simple language to help everyone understand the exchange
Slow Load Times. Finally, slow load times can be a major issue for cryptocurrency exchanges. If we have to wait too long for pages to load, we are going to live very soon
In a current market with many “players” it's hard to get a user with only a quality design and interface and here we come to another important point for traders - types of orders and options for it . It is important to have many different types because it allows us to execute trades in a way that best suits trading strategy and risk tolerance. Here is the list of the most popular and in the meantime significant ones:
1. Market order: buy or sell a given instrument at the market price. The price for these types of orders is defined as the best price available on the market at the point of time the order is being placed. Since the price changes constantly, the total price and fees are provided as estimates rather than exact values.
2. Limit order: execute a trade at a specified price or better (limit price). A Limit order to buy would be at the limit price or lower, and a Limit order to sell would be at the limit price or higher.
Subtypes of limit orders:
Good-Till-Cancelled - lasts until the order is completed or canceled.
Day - automatically expires if not executed on the day the order was placed.
Good-Till-Date/Time - automatically expires at the specified date and time.
Fill-Or-Kill - must be executed immediately in its entirety; otherwise the entire order will be canceled
Immediate-Or-Cancel - must be executed immediately. Any part of an IOC order that cannot be filled immediately will be canceled.
3. Scaled orders: you can set multiple orders at once. This lets you implement the most sophisticated trading strategies with ease. For example, if you'd like to consistently sell portions of some currency in case its price is increasing. Usually, you would have to create a whole lot of sell orders manually, specifying the desired amount, and the price each time. With Scaled orders, you can noticeably speed up this process.
Now a little bit about options:
A Stop-loss option on your orders helps with minimising risks attached to trading. This option is available for Market and Limit orders with a preselected Stop option, which ensures that your order will be placed as soon as the price reaches a certain value, called the Trigger price.
A Take-profit option on your orders helps with consolidating your gains from trading. This condition is available for Market and Limit orders with a preselected 'Stop' condition — a condition that ensures that your order will be placed as soon as the price reaches a certain value, called the Trigger price.
A Post only option ensures that your limit order will be added to the order book and not match with a pre-existing order. If your order would cause a match with a pre-existing order, your post-only limit order will be canceled. The 'Post' only option guarantees that you will pay the maker fee and not the taker fee unless matched with a hidden order.
A Reduce only option enables you to create buy and sell orders meant to reduce an existing position without opening an opposite long or short position worth more than the current value of your leveraged assets. This essentially means that you will not be able to execute more than the size of your position, allowing you to trade without risking over-exposure of your assets.
In conclusion, it’s crucial for you to choose exchanges that have a user-friendly interface and a variety of order types. It can help execute trades more efficiently and with greater precision, leading to a better overall trading experience.

Behind the scenes of exchanges. Speed of orders and slippageHello guys. Today we are sharing with you an idea about the impact of order speed and slippage. Why is it important and what exchanges could do to provide us with the best solutions?
First of all, fast order execution is essential for those of you who are looking to take advantage of market opportunities in real-time. If orders are executed too slowly you may miss out on profitable trades or be forced to accept less favorable prices. Unpredictable slippage can lead to unexpected losses, which can be particularly damaging in volatile markets.
On the other hand, high-speed trading can also increase the risk of market manipulation and other forms of unethical behavior. Traders who are able to execute orders more quickly than others may be able to manipulate prices in their favor, leading to unfair advantages and potentially harming other market participants.
What do exchanges do to ensure the best speed and lowest slippage?
1. Orders speed:
Exchanges make use of a combination of advanced technology and strategic partnerships to offer fast order execution. They are using high-performance servers and optimized software to process orders quickly
Some exchanges use machine learning algorithms to predict market trends and react to market movements more quickly. By analyzing large amounts of trade data, these algorithms can identify patterns and make predictions about future market conditions. This allows exchanges to offer faster and more accurate trading services to their users
2. Slippage
As we all know, slippage refers to the difference between the expected price of a trade and the actual price at which the trade is executed. To minimize slippage on orders, exchanges can use different strategies:
Employ advanced order matching algorithms that can quickly and accurately match buyers and sellers based on their preferences and available liquidity. These algorithms can help to reduce the likelihood of trades being executed at unfavorable prices, which can help to minimize slippage
Exchanges provide users with access to a deep liquidity pool. This can be achieved by partnering with market makers and other liquidity providers, who can help to ensure that there is always a reliable supply of buyers and sellers for each currency pair.
And last but not least, exchanges offer users the ability to place limit orders, which allow them to specify the maximum price they are willing to pay for a particular currency. This can help to minimize slippage by ensuring that trades are only executed when the desired price is available.
So what was the main purpose of this idea? To reflect the importance of transaction speed and slippage on exchanges, because the outcome of transactions and their convenience for us as users directly depends on it. If you want to make a profit in this market, you should understand exactly what exchanges are doing to give you the best options. With this knowledge you are able to choose exchanges to trade with more wisely.

HOW TO GET FREE BONUSES FROM EXCHANGESHello everyone. Today we’re gonna tell you a little bit about free bonuses exchanges are offering for their users.
We know that with the increased competition for users, exchanges are trying to attract users in various ways, including bonus programs. For new traders, these bonuses can be a great way to get started with trading without risking their own funds, save money on trading fees, and even earn rewards for referring friends to the platform.
Let’s take a look at the most popular types of bonuses:
Free cryptocurrency: Some exchanges may offer a small amount of cryptocurrency to new users upon registration or first deposit
Reduced fees: Other exchanges can offer reduced trading fees for new users for a limited time. This can be a good way to save money on trading fees and to get familiar with the platform
Referral bonuses: One more type of bonuses is referral bonuses to users who refer new customers to the platform. The new user may also receive a bonus for signing up through the referral link
Other incentives: Of course there are other types of incentives, such as access to exclusive features, priority customer support, or other benefits
There are many rewards programs for various types of actions. For example you’ll get tokens or vouchers for taking some kind of survey, for following exchange’s twitter, discord and so on. Also we have to mention bug bounty programs - finding bugs on a website or terminal or on other exchange’s resources BUT…
What are the disadvantages of receiving free bonuses?
In some cases, the conditions for receiving, using and withdrawing the bonuses are too complicated and not worth the effort.
Sometimes we get a bonus that we can spend only on a certain token, not to divide it into several coins.
And last is that occasionally to get some bonuses it’s necessary to trade a certain volume
These disadvantages might scare off some newbies but nowadays many exchanges make the user’s way of receiving bonuses more like a game to involve the user in the process and not to scare him off.
There are different platforms which give users the opportunity to receive bonuses in game form. (e.g. Crew3)
On these platforms there are various market players: exchanges, crypto-projects, nft-projects, which offer users to complete various tasks for a reward.
How is it better than our usual ways of getting bonuses? Because on such platforms we pass different levels, get special statuses, earn experience, and see our progress. Just like in p2e-format projects.
In conclusion, the market has many different options for obtaining bonuses from simple to complex, from the typical to the unusual in its mechanics. In the current period players on the market are trying to think up more interesting methods of bonus obtaining, they try to offer bonuses which will be relevant for users, not the ones for which you won't press a button and this competition leads us to the improvement of interaction between the product and the user.

Short term view of BTC [ support showing in the past few days ]Recent BTC volumes shows a number of time a huge volumes are created at the low price, which is an indication of some big players supporting the price around this range .
However, there are some buyers came in around $23,883 area which is enough for the big players to distribute some BTC at the range . This is why it causes a fall in price after that. If there are enough buyers within $23,000 range, then the rebound will not happen. Because big players don't need to mark the price higher to attract more buyers for distribution.
If rebound happens
Based on our approach, the rebound might not be sustainable due to the previous price fall shows sign of controlled price fall / selling to avoid market panic . In our view, the big players might still hold some BTC in hand & wants to distribute more. A small price up will happen & retrace right after.
Disclaimer : The volume data BTC analysis in 5 mins chart is from source that have collective volumes from different exchanges or market maker that they could access to and so prices may not be accurate and may differ from the actual price at any given market, meaning prices are indicative and not appropriate for trading purposes.

Crazy Theory Bitcoin Market Cap Calculation (Based on 2018-2021)In 2018, the bottom of BTC was about 3340 USD, with a market cap of 59.542 billion.
By 2019, BTC had reached 10,000 USD, with a market cap of 191.025 billion , a difference of 131.483 billion.
2022 The bottom seemed to be 16767 USD, with a market cap of 318.999 billion , the same difference of 131.483 billion , for a total of 450.482 billion - same highest we got 24,000$ so far On January 29, 2023. Crazy, huh?
Now back to 2018, from the last higher of 10,000 USD, the market cap was 191.025 billion , minus 118.342 billion into the second bottom, which seemed to be about 5700 USD, for a difference of 72.683 billion .
So, in 2023, the last higher was 450.482 billion minus the difference of 2018, which was 72.683 billion, for a total of 377.799 billion , which seems to be almost 20,000 USD. Is that the second bottom before reaching new levels?
Next predictions: from 2018 to 2021, the market cap was 59K to 1.159 trillion , minus 118.342 billion , for a total of 1.040 trillion . Adding 377.799 billion to 1.040 trillion gives us a total of 1.417 trillion.
Using the formula Price = Market Cap / Circulating Supply, the price prediction from 20,000 USD is 73,042.76. That's a 270% increase from 20K to 73K - compare this to the 2000% increase from 3000 USD (in 2018).
My guess is that BTC will reach 73K in 2024, then go back for a correction before targeting 150,000 USD at the end of 2025 or Q1 2026 - that's an 800% increase from 15K.
Good Luck.
Death Cross Dump incoming? This symmetry says it willWeekly Death cross will likely happen in next few weeks, wat will it do?
If it does play out bearish like it mostly does on the daily chart, i would not be surprised tot test the 230B mark.
Mirroring previous uptrend tot this downtrend would also be beautiful to see, isn't it?
