Bitcoin (BTC) And The Escape From Many Triangles

Bitcoin (btc) and the escape from many triangles

Alright, for once I’m going to post a short analysis. Just wanted to post a chart with these crazy lines I’ve been looking at. As I’ve been saying in my updates, I’ve been seeing some warning signs that we could be in for another leg down soon. Looking at this chart, you can see we have a GIANT diagonal resistance from the ATH peak to very near the current price. I think it has validity, based on how price has behaved every time it’s touched it (we are now close to our 4th near touch). I’m using the Bitfinex chart here because even that crazy Tether fiasco pumped it EXACTLY to that line. If we somehow manage to get above it soon, we still have the other triangle resistances to contend with.

This is not really a trade setup, although it does show an immediate target of 2K, or another 50% decline in price from here. I function better as an analyst, rather than a trader myself. I can analyze more objectively that way, even when I do provide trade setups. In any case, this is just to post some lines, and to see how price reacts to them in the future. The fact that the big line from the ATH has served as a selling point, makes it seem to me that the selling is controlled by computers. These computers may have calculated that the target price is close to zero, which means they will keep selling at that exact point. Obviously, this sounds a little crazy, I know. But this would explain why even human bullishness hasn’t been able to save the market so far. If someone programs a computer to make the most amount of money possible, it could conceivably get stuck in this sort of loop. Sounds like SciFi. It’s probably the fiction writer in me coming out.

In any case, a 4th failure at that line would be a very bad sign. ETH has already failed at a major resistance that it hadn’t touched since JULY! That’s nuts. This was longer than I originally intended.

Definitely not financial advice. This is what i’m seeing in the charts, and I’m just putting it here for reference, or if anyone else finds it useful for some reason.
Good night & good luck!

Bitcoin Market Share Drops Almost 20%; Altcoins Stronger Than Ever

In an increasingly growing market, bitcoin market share dominance is fading every day of 2017. As market fears of a hard fork continue to fester, a manic Monday saw bitcoin drop under $1,000, as altcoins grow stronger than ever before.


Why don’t we start with some good news first? The overall decentralized digital currency market has never been bigger and stronger, judged by market capitalization value

Since the start of 2017 alone, the overall industry has risen from $18.2 Billion USD in value to a peak of $26.2 billion USD on March 16th, according to CoinMarketCap. As of this morning, it is $23.5 billion, still an improvement of almost 30% since the first of the year.

THE ALTCOINS ARE COMING!

Clearly, the market fears of a hard fork are causing many to diversify their digital currency portfolio over the last month or so. Ethereum’s Ether is the largest altcoin on the market, and its value has taken another jump this morning. With Bitcoin down almost 7% on Friday morning, Ethereum is picking up the slack, up almost 15%.

Ethereum’s gain may be two-fold, with some Bitcoiners moving in and also with the announcement of their newest partnership with Brave yesterday. As we reported yesterday, Ethereum will create BAT (Basic Attention Tokens) for the Brave internet browser network to enhance the privacy and relevance of their ad network, so this new investment may be as much a pro-Ethereum move as an anti-bitcoin dump.

Dash & Ripple Bagholders Rejoice

Dash continues to show that it is the safe haven hedge to any bitcoin market fall. Every time bitcoin falls, Dash gains, and the altcoin passed $105 again this morning with a market cap eclipsing $750 Million. Ripple, the #4 altcoin in market cap, is also having a field day, as the week comes to an end. Ripple is gaining in the neighborhood of 20% on the market just within the last 24 hours.

Ripple XRP Bitcoinist

In closing, bitcoin has lost almost 20% of its global market share since January 1st, 2017, falling from 87.4% to just 68% this morning.

The half-glass-full was of looking at it is people are no longer taking their money out of the digital currency market if bitcoin stumbles. They are getting other digital currencies, which overall is a great thing.  the ecosystem is growing every day. And clearly, the mainstream is also investing more and more into the entire industry.

I’ll skip the pessimistic side of the equation. It’s Friday, people! Have a great weekend!
