Except I've seen him use it in that unusual way on the blog too

Unfortunately that incorrect usage isn't that unusual.

yea, he meant that it triple, not that it rose by 3x...
Except I've seen him use it in that unusual way on the blog too:

"Consolidation in tight range between 1.13 – 1.20 $, after +214% rise in 2 weeks."

this +300% rally over the past 20 days
I don't get this. From approximately 0.5 to approximately 1.5 is a 300% increase?

So, from 0.5 to 0.5 would have been a 100% increase?

Is that the way percentages are usually used in the financial world? That's not how I expect percentages to be used. From 0.5 to 1.5 would be (1.5-0.5)/0.5*100% = 200% increase.

If this +300% rally over the past 20 days only gets some media attention (which I am sure it will), we may see follow through buying next week once people can add more funds to the exchanges.

There are no big resistances before the psychological 2.0 $, and even this one can be evaporated fast.

People have a lot more time on the weekends, they are not at work/school/etc.

I often wonder why trading is down on saturday/sunday for "normal" markets.

And bots trade 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Just a weekend is coming. So a trading may slow down until Monday. Smiley

Because "normal" markets are closed.

No it's not because of that, I'm thinking pychological resistances, especially for 2$

so no resistance at 1.5?

I'm pretty sure technical analysis is more complicated than looking for spikes on a chart.

Agreed, there is no evidence that 1.5 or 2.0 will be resistance points.

I'm seeing 1.38 as a resistance point because prices are kind of sitting there.

We are at 1.332 right now... but looking at the thing below, I see a potential rise to 1.5, where we will hit a resistance. We will then see what happens. We can also see a 2$ resistance coming
