Over the last 12 months or so, I spent some time creating cartoons to work around some heavy educational topics. A lot of this is done by using the @TradingView Polyline tool. I wanted to share them in one place along with a chronology that might fit some pieces together for some of you in the community. So let's walk through each; For those who don't know me,...
Everyone has this burning FOMO; take a chill pill and relax. Bitcoin is becoming institutional, whilst most people will say that means more big money in, it must go up! They miss the fact, the same big money will want to accumulate! It's actually very obvious when you take a step back and look at the big picture. I got a lot of stick last year for posting the...
I recently wrote an article on Bitcoin and Gold. I think what a lot of people, can't seem to comprehend is the difference between money and currency. Store of value and the perception of store of value. The Governments have played this game for hundreds of years. It's a closed loop system, adding Bitcoin is simply another tool for them to assert control - Perma...
All too often new retail traders are suckered into brokers with large sign up bonuses. These are often referred to as "B" book brokers whereby 9 times out of 10 your money never even hits the real market. They know 90% of people lose 90% of their accounts in 90 days. It doesn't stop there, you either have an influencer who doesn't even trade a live account, giving...
Before you fall off your high horse, you crypto cowboys - I have been in Bitcoin since 2011. I'm one of the lucky ones, this post isn't a "Bash at crypto" it's about giving you some insights, some logic and something to consider when making an argument for both the pros and cons. So to start with; one topic that I feel many newer retail traders and social...
Watching the charts over the last 2 years now have been "INTERESTING" & even then, it's probably an understatement. But in all fairness; although the news is often priced into the chart, we have seen exceptional circumstances. We saw a de-coupling of Britain from the European Union, what a cock up that was & only now the fall out's are becoming obvious for...
Many people simply do not understand economics; and why should they - it's Foooooking complex. I hear and read, all the time. Bitcoin solves inflation - without any real sound logic as to why or how... When you travel back in time, the monetary systems have changed and evolved but are moving further and further away from the "gold" standard. Now as a crypto...
Over the last 14 - months I have made these posts public here on @TradingView What I found interesting is the level of respect that Bitcoin is building, many traders are looking for short term gains - but they also contradict themselves with the idea of possessing DIAMOND HANDS!! Once you have a feel of the trend bias, it's actually becoming so respectful of...
Not often do you get an opportunity to show a real world example of a text book move - live. Here's a simple educational post showing the two major types of breaks of the trend. This is the current price level as of the 24th of Jan 2022. You can see this as a corrective break - the main reason for this, is that the chart is only the 1 hour, whereas if you...
When your fake guru is $90,000 off a December close. It's time to have a serious look at your technical analysis. Although everyone wanted 100k for Christmas - the logic and reasoning was simply missing (can't even say it was flawed). The roadmap pointed out the move, with sound reasoning behind why we where likely to go up, down, up and back down AGAIN ....
In the post going back to February last year, I talked about the "VALUE AREA" This level was the start of the Wyckoff movement for me, where the distribution would start to fall into place. You will see the value area highlighted in the main post with an orange horizontal line. Press play on this and you will see much like a magnet, price comes back and...
Trading is 100% about perspective - Many people think markets only go up. And for some time, they sure feel like that. I wanted to highlight, the moves we have spoken about since covering BTC and highlight where we are in this cycle. Knowing is useful and for a longer term "investment" I have specific criteria I want. I must say I have been very grateful for...
I spent most of 2020 playing around on @TradingView commentating and creating educational content, predominantly around Bitcoin. Here's an anime series to re-emphasize what was posted and shared here. One large main post covering every single element of the move up to 64k, down to 28k and back up to the current ATH - as well as back down to the 40k level....
Over the last year, I have been making my Bitcoin trades public. I have been using the @TradingView charts to show the logic for each Bitcoin swing. I have used cartoon posts for the explanation of sometimes technical topics. All with the view of educating the community here on Tradingview. I have traded for over 21 years now, covering all kinds of instruments,...
First stream of 2022; let's kick it off!
Over the last year I have spent a lot of time on @TradingView writing up educational content, I have tried to apply drawings to my charts to express some lessons in simple yet easy to follow and understand walkthroughs. Here's a chronology regardless of your experience and level. Let's start with Psychology - this is the life and soul of the market, if humans...
