2 days ago I published a chart in trading view explaining what's happening with bitcoin price.
https://www.tradingview.com/chart/BTCUSD/QIgVoEf6-BTC-USD/I like to get rid off all the news and the buzz that's been around the space lately and just focus in charts. I like that taking a technical approach cleans and filters all this FUD that's been hitting the prices all over the board these last weeks.
I just don't like to see a lot of people that are just starting to trade, take the wrong decisions because
1.) they just listen to other "experience" traders that just encourage them to hodl and do nothing but that.
2.) they believe lots of altcoins are the next big thing and they get full in thinking they are undervalued because they are low caps. If altcoins are in the market, they are most likely to suffer this price bleeding because everyone was rushing to get into bitcoin, and now that bitcoin keeps dropping, everyone is rushing to get into fiat. It's a bloodbath, a snowball of blood. So for all of you guys that are into alts, do your research about them, analyse why the price and their caps are at those levels, be skeptic, but most importantly, judge the technology and not the price. There's great alts out there that are truly innovating the space right now, so there's good dips to buy, and definitely some knifes that you don't want to catch. A lot of alts are just piggyback riding the market, taking profits out of inexperienced traders or ignorant investors. Be aware. Just because it's a blockchain and it's "private" "fast" "decentralised" does it mean it can't be pure shit.
Let me know what do you guys think about the chart.
Be safe and don't feed the whales.
I TOTALLY GET YOUR POINT BUT THE THING IS I THINK MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE IN CRYPTOCURRENCIES NOW, PARTICULARLY BITCOINS, ARE JUST HERE BECAUSE THEY WANT TO JOIN THE BANDWAGON. THEY ARE DEFINITELY NOT HERE TO UNDERSTAND YOUR TECHNICAL APPROACH ON THIS. The attitude is simply dense hence the price of Bitcoin has been erratic due to the influx of enter and exit investors. This fact, we definitely cannot control. What I am saying is since technical people are outnumbered, we have no choice but to ALTOGETHER deal with the price fluctuations UNLESS there are any mechanisms available to educate people on cryptocurrencies and everything that goes along with it. On the other side of the coin, let me remind you that we cannot totally attribute this to the number of 'ignorant investors' as you earlier called it since there are huge companies that hold a huge chunk of share in cryptos, and they are definitely here to try to control the market. I think there are bigger whales out there in either public or private sectors that have come to take control of cryptos yet again. Now, what say you?
