Bitcoin (BTC) Mid-Day Update: Weekly Degree of Trend Perspective

in #bitcoin7 years ago

SUMMARY

When using the line chart for Bitcoin (BTC), the five waves down is uncanny; as shown in the below chart. The line chart has a smoothing effect which does at times skew the count to a different variation because it removes the barchart details. However, the five wave downs implies a turn is approaching but also still within a larger correction. The MACD on the weekly basis has not started curling upwards; however, once wave 5 is complete; that curl should be more visible.

The larger degree of trend correction is shown as an ABC. So, the first five waves down become the subwaves of red A. This would make the correction a ZigZag. The approaching turn could be sizable but not necessarily a trend reversal as it'll likely be a three wave retracement. This B wave would also curl up the white line of the MACD and temporarily have it cross thed red. But, one thing to consider is that an 8+ year climb takes a correction that could very likely take more tha 4 months to correct. The B bounce will likely be misinterpreted as an all clear skies ahead and the shocker of the later wave C down could be painful to all who were not aware.

@haejin, great, great post! Thank you for that one. You just might have crushed a lot of peoples dreams and opened their eyes.

For everyone: There is a lot you can learn from looking at charts of Amazon - Apple - Facebook - Dutch Shell etc. etc.
Just go back to the early days of these companies on a weekly chart and you can see it just isn't as simple as going from zero to 20K back to 4K and then up to 40K.

Haejin, sounds like you are embracing the bear market case, unfortunately, which does seem like a likelihood now (what about all our great alts!!?)

Still, when you say 8+ year bull run - are you saying the whole of bitcoin is due for a correction, or did you mean to say 8 months?

Well, concerning all our great alts,

  • one aspect is to eye on alts that are more independent from btc market movements (consider Matrix AI Network, e.g.)
  • and another is to embrace tax regulations (at least here in Germany), that create the incentive for long HODLing anyways.

Here, only one year after any crypto buying action the full return can be cashed in legally without having to pay any taxes whatsoever. Everything before that timeframe underlies a stricter legislation, which is why the short to middle term market (facing the C wave correction @haejin is taking into consideration) is not too frightening in the end.

In other words: The final C wave ending would be the time to get into new positions and altcoins be HODLed for even later. Concerning altcoins:

I've been studying this tonight and I don't think it's probable. If this count is correct then wave 4 infringes on wave 1 as seen in my chart. The line graph he is using removes the wicks but that means it would violate the Elliott Waves. If Haejin is right then maybe we see a decoupling of the alt coin market and Bitcoin. That would be fantastic if that is the case.

He really don't care what he says. He just wants your upvotes. That's all he wants from you. He can care less if you even read his post. 99% of the people don't read it anyways. You would make more money simply by flagging this scammer. All you need to do is start flagging Haejin & I guarantee you will earn more money than you did by upvoting him.

ok, why so angry, if you don't like just move, an upvote cost nothing to anyone, first.
I always find very interesting points from Haejin and mix them with other approaches and make my own opinions on BTC or other crypto, and I am fully grateful for his work and time.
I wish I can see your work, your point of view, instead of spreading hate.

You have made 4 post on Steemit & you think you already know everything there is to it. Boy go back to FACEBOOK.

😂😂😂💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽 love It.

His account is valued at 86 cents & he is telling me to move on. I know my account isn't a whole lot. But there is no way he has got knowledge from Haejin. I doubt he even reads a thing Haejin post. He probably thinks he will get paid from upvoting him.

Haejin was a "genius " during a crazy bull market. It's easy to be right when things are running out of control upwards. The fact is Bitcoin is so young still.....and nobody can use any kind of chart to predict shit. The only smart thing to do is whatever YOU feel comfortable with. Steemit is more complex than BTC/LTC/ETH put together and there is no way to understand it all in even six months let alone four posts. There are a lot of angles that can get played over here.

With any coins or stocks. Buy & when the prices go higher, sell if you want that money then. If not hodl. Sell when you really want your money back. I sold all the BTC I had at 11K right after it reached 20K. I used it to put into steemit. I did lose some since I could have sold at 20K. But look at it now. Plus the little I had I got all CPU mining. Right after I sold is when it seems to have crashed. I guess I happened to pick the right time to sell, besides when it was higher than that.

and right on cue his whales to the rescue. Please stop this madness

Actually it costs people money that actually post quality content because he rapes the reward pool thanks to his friends Rancho and Star juno. So yeah up upvoting garbage TA is bad. How many times did he post a different count, with dozens of updates that said the same thing over and over, and it's wrong. You think he deserves a few thousand for that?

@h00pla85. Your argument Is one that has been repeated countless times ad infinitum ad nauseum. Is there anything in a system of financial capital that prohibits, expressly or implied, that one can not collaborate, collude, even strategize to maximize one's profits?

Or that allows one to call (or not) any play any way one sees and if it is in a public marketplace, say youtube, that lets random strangers (not all with the best of intentions), followers, anyone online your blog, site, chat ⇾ comment, up and down vote, reshare?

Isn't this the invisible hand of the market adjusting to compensate for the wisdom of the crowds and their omnipotent pluralistic, jingoistic, oligopolical 'winner take all' all powerful 'voting' power. (i.e. the mandate of the people)?

You think celebrities, professional successful musicians, the talking heads on the mass media and every other joker on this planet who thinks they are the grand poo bah and everyone else who acts as if they are the king, emperor, Sith Lord... or Decepticon 'deserves' it? You'd include politicians, CEOs and family members who make 1000x to 1,000,000,000x+ the rest of the majority (99.999%) make, sometimes (often) while hurting and not helping?

You think the garbage corporations who monopolize and spew out pollution, toxic chemicals and crappy products and scam and con fraudulent services and MLM/pyramid scheme type of 'take the money and run' 'fly by night' are making their money fairly, honestly and ethically?

I was replying to someone who said that an upvote doesn't matter, it doesn't cost anyone anything. I was simply stating that it does effect people because there are others on this site that are attempting to use this platform for what it was meant for, but you have whales like Haejin that abuse the system. Unfortunately even if those minnows stop upvoting him he still has his corrupt group upvoting him.

To you first point, that is the problem with this system. It was setup for people to be rewarded by other people for posting good content and they would police themselves. But this system is flawed. It is great for him to post bad TA and have people who do not even view his content to upvote him to a few hundred bucks.

Is it against conduct? I would argue that colluding on a upvote scheme and therefore manipulating the reward pools is a violation (it is the first criteria for flagging someone). The problem is there is no moderation so nothing can be done about it.

And just because other professionals may do it doesn't mean it is right. Even if they do not "deserve" it there is a difference between deserving it and scamming people.

I could easily have some friends jump on this platform, drop a bunch of money, and start doing the same thing he is doing. But i wouldn't be able to sleep at night knowing I am just spamming posts to get enough upvotes for the day to maximize my profits while hurting not only the credibility of the platform by the other people posting content.

Is there anyone stopping a dev from making a scam coin, then dumping it onto undeserving investors and then abandoning the project? No, but just because you can make a profit without repercussions doesn't mean it is okay.

I find this platform was a good social experiment. They eliminated authority and left people to police themselves. And even though we are still in its infancy, we are already seeing what most people are made of, shit.

how do you make money from flagging?

@haggislove you don't make any money from flagging. It is mostly (except in the most egregious, blatant, intentionally offensive forms of harassment or pure click-bait trash) a waste of time and voting power.

Are you a complete moron, @thabiggdogg?

Knock it off.

@thabiggdogg

I would be an asshole, if I went on your or anyone's social media account and day after day, night after night 24/7 constantly harassed, insulted and ganged up like a bunch of high school bullies on someone who is trying to do their business.

@thabiggdogg why don't you either get a life, job or work on writing and curating content perceived by the community as valuable (including on Facebook, Twitter, Google or in the print market such as Amazon).

@thabiggdogg or maybe you can't write, curate, have no technical or coding skills, can't do TA to save your (or my) life.

@thabiggdogg Hey maybe you'll make another whole 2 cents off of maligning someone else since, let's face it... Jealousy runs rampant and Denial ain't no river in Egypt.

We have a guy that has a bot that keeps track of it. Visit @FlagAWhale for more details.

Ohhhhh sweetheart, you have again start shame our family, eh? Stop or me leave you. Now see, even @thabiggdogg your second account have reputation 0.52. hahahah. at least Even me mine is 0.91 and mine bigger than you. hahahahaha. Sweetheart, but me warn you. stop write nonsense.

@jesseluther, it is not so much a case of @haejin 'embracing' or welcoming, even desiring/wanting a 'bear' market, say BTC to go down ↓↓↓ to 4.8, 3.2 or bottom out at 2K. It is, as @passion-ground so passionately expresses, that we as analysts (and would be analysts) are always following the price action, which dictates our responses (not the other way around, such as the charts, Moving Averages, Volume, RSI, MACD, OBV, what one or another bitcoin pundit like Tone Vays declares : 'it must be so, this way, down/up trend'... the news).

He has no idea, it's all bs for over 3 months now. Now he is bearish... What a joke. How many times can he get it wrong before people stop following him

@jesseluther I think @haejin is referring to the 8 yr bull run from Bitcoin's inception to now. That it may take a while to consolidate and correct since it's not as if we got to where we are overnite. I know @haejin has referred specifically to a '4 month' correction (if you look at the bottom annotation of his charts on his (more recent) youtube videos).

And certainly, indubitably... absolutely... the others (not BTC just) in the crypto ecosphere are (often) analyzed.

Indubitably lol

Ouch, that will hurt...

You did say sometime ago that we could drop to $4k or below and that is looking more likely now!

@haejin what is your opinion of $STEEM coin long term? Do you consider it a HODL?

It is rumored that among @haejin's favorite coins are STEEM and BTS (certainly, it is factual that he has utilized STEEM rather prolifically)

He likes STEEM because he FUCKING SCAMS IT!!!! It's like saying a BANK ROBBER LIKES BANKS!!!

@thabiggdogg. Bank Robbers don't like banks?

Ah. Banks. Let's start up a whole convo about Banks. And who's robbing who. Peter to pay Mary (or is it Paul? I'm so bad with names and numbers). Pot Calling the Kettle Black. We can start with the subprime mortgage crisis, the $12 trillion+ Bank Bailout. The Stock Market.

Go on. I'm all ears.

BTW Do Robber Barons like Barron's (Pizza?) or just highway robbery? Or are predatory corporate takeovers and malfeasance (do Bernie Madoff and Charles Ponzi sound shady to you?) not to mention default credit swaps and financial market manipulation and insider trading more to their wicked ways?

Today I'm wearing black in mourning because I have the blues from bitcoin being in the red from not enough green #icominter

These negative movements in Bitcoin seem to take time to wait for a big leap. Even if there is a rise in Bitcoin, I believe that it will not be on a bigger scale, and the decisions made in future times will affect BitCoin.

Hi @haejiin, this scenario is your first option?

Ok, so it seems the bear market will continue for a little while longer

Bullshit. Sorry. Dont trust this ...
