Volume aligns with a weekly top, and there is a bearish divergence brewing. Of course, it's possible that the large sell volume is only indicative of Bitcoin moving around during the ETF launch. So, that's important to consider when assuming price will drop heavily from here. I'm fundamentally bearish on Bitcoin, not because I don't think higher prices are out...
Overall, since the end of 2021, I've seen Bitcoin is more of a net-negative when it comes to investing, for a variety of reasons. I've outlined all of this pretty clearly in my posts to this account since then. I correctly anticipated the drop all the way down below $20k back in 2022, though I did not really have any intention of buying back in or trying to time a...
Ah, Tronix. Yes, it's actually called "Tronix", not "Tron." The coin with the disappearing wallet. No joke, I made a wallet back in early 2019 for TRX and stored the private key. I like to do things the old fashioned way, so I wrote it down and double-checked it by logging in. The second time Iogged in, I got the notification, "this wallet doesn't exist." Since...
This is just a quick follow-up post to my short idea on Tronix from May. Here is the original post. I ultimately got stopped out of the first trade and failed to catch the nearly 50% drop. Despite dropping below the uptrend, TRX rebounded much better than the rest of the crypto market, and remains one of the only coins still above its bull market support. It's...
As I'm sure you've noticed, my posts have really slowed down. I'm just focusing on other things in my life, and it's mostly been good. Some hard times very recently, but that's how it goes. I hope you are all alright and trading safely :) Now...to Bitcoin. Volume is declining overall as less actual Bitcoin is traded. Hardly any coins have been sent to exchanges,...
Nothing to do with the Taylor Swift song. Just a good old structure breakdown for Litecoin. Price really must hold here, otherwise a retest of the long term horizontal support near $22 seems likely. Not a long post. Just wanted to provide an update on this chart. This can occur even if Bitcoin merely tests something like $48k. One reason I still follow LTC is...
Hey Tradingview. As my posts have really become sparse, I tend to only write when something pretty significant occurs. Right now, Bitcoin has made it all the way from $15.5k, back up close to its all-time-high from 2021. That's a pretty substantial feat. What it proves is that if a thing exists that can make money, people will buy it. Even if I write a...
Above is Blackrock's new Bitcoin ETF. This is mostly a joke and a "wait and see" post. I'm curious whether the liquidity generated by these Bitcoin ETF's creates a permanent resistance at their opening day high, which is around $30 for IBIT. I'm speculating that Bitcoin may never again breach $50k. Again, I'm partially kidding with this post but wouldn't be...
Amidst my re-evaluation of markets, divestment from crypto, and future planning, I'm slowly building a long term position in CYBIN. As a therapist who also happens to be a fan of psychedelics, this one fits me well. I think it can continue to flounder around, and perhaps test some even lower levels. Just looking for optimal entry points now, and managed to scoop...
In May of 2022, I called the long term top for Ethereum and final distribution. I sold all my ETH above $3k after purchasing most of mine below $150. A year ago, I called ETH's rally from the sub-$1k lows to be the first major bear market rally. Since then, ETH has continuously failed to go higher. This past May, I showed how ETH could end up back below $500....
Bitcoin is starting to look bullish on the weekly/monthly timeframe. Price had a strong monthly close above the 9 month EMA and the 50, which I've mentioned needed to hold for any bullish continuation. This is despite the SEC crackdown. I find it quite suspicious that Blackrock and others filed for Bitcoin ETF's shortly after that. Another example of why things...
Hooo boy, all those fund managers who were telling people to go balls to the walls on bonds earlier this year assuming interest rates would be lowered were truly addicted to the era of easy money. Some people have lost a lot recently. And it seems people are trying to now catch the falling knife (including myself, as I will explain). In the above charts, you can...
Not really a surprise here. After briefly heading higher, Litecoin has drifted back into the range it's been in since the beginning of the year. Since the failed breakout, I think it means Litecoin will need to test the lower bounds of the trading range and hope to God it finds buyers. I called the end to the rally a bit prematurely a couple of months ago: You...
Although in the past, I've been a supporter of XRP, and especially XLM, I ultimately realized the cryptocurrency itself is not particularly user-friendly, considering a tag and an address are both required. Minimum balances are also required. I also began to see through Brad Garlinghouse's smugness, and the obvious market manipulation. Nevertheless, as far as...
LItecoin is currently barely holding onto the 200 day MA (teal), and has already retraced heavily from its pre-halving rally peak while failing to get back into the long term uptrend channel. In mid-2019, when LTC began breaking down, it was a sign the market-wide relief bounce was over. Now, the environment is way worse. I'm not going to even bother deep-diving...
I think this will be my last update on Bitcoin during this consolidation period below $31k. The period could end soon, but regardless of when the next big wave occurs, this is an attempt to illustrate, in advance, the WHY behind the next move. As I've mentioned several times already, the monthly 9 EMA (orange) and the 50 MA (red) seem to be quite important. This...
A lot of investors are probably asking, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? We're seeing unbelievable amounts of deleveraging, not just in the cryptocurrency market. Over the last several months, I have posted consistently on why I believed there was significant risk for something like this to occur. Within the crypto market itself, we're now seeing consistent bad news....
Above, you can see that Bitcoin is currently back to 2017 ATH levels when weighted against the S&P 500. In addition, Bitcoin has also sustained a breakdown below both long term trendlines against the index. I can't really be more generous than that. Even if stocks have already hit bottom, I think Bitcoin is unlikely to outperform again, at least for many years. If...
