Nice write up and I really enjoyed the side that said how to identify when a coin is about to be pump. This is very important and we should not ignore the lessons there. The moment people hear about pump and dump they do classifieds them as scam but in reality I have see some of the activities of the group pushing the price upward and I have see them pump some coins to about  1000% in just a single day and many traders have making gain subscribe to the idea of pump and dump group.

The most easy way is to follow the tokens telegram group. Many investors and bounty hunter are out there looking for were the coin are listed in other to sell up the coin and most times the post it in the group.  Another way I do find out if the coin is listed in exchange is through https://coinmarketcap.com and why I like using this site is that it give me all the exchange that this coin is listed.

I did not come across this thread of your and I will say you are correct in this your analysis. When bitcoin is dropping don't expect any altcoins to stand and that is what has happened in February 2018. Many new investors actually thinks they can make money through coins flipping but they refuse to realize that when bitcoin is dump people will also dump other alternative coins and some time when bitcoin is getting pumping some altcoins will be dump.  However we are happy the downward trend is over and we are about to resume bullish momentum.

Robot is good if it can make you consistent money and it is bad if it makes you to lose money. I have seeing some software during my forex trading and binary options trading that makes over a 100% profit in a month and I have see some that actually lose money. I have seeing my account been wiped out in just a day and of a truth I have never make money from forex using robots. Some said is good why other said is good but my experience about it is not a good one.

You did not complete your analysis. You said this is (critical week for bitcoin) without really said your view about what is about to happen this week.  I was expecting a very serious technical and fundamental connection that will puff way to and upwards prices movement or vice versa. Hope to get more other people view about this topic you have started.

After this your post nothing really happened and we can said that your prediction and analysis did not come to pass and therefore we are happy for still holding. Bitcoin price has gone up significant this days and I see this as a sign of good things to come.  To me the bearish market is over and we are generally now at the upward trend. You should do your review very well next time in other not to make people sell out of panic and loose money at the same time.

Like you have rightly said maybe you don't have much knowledge on how trading work and you may need to develop your knowledge on this area. Trading is a game play by the skillful therefore you must endeavour to learning how to buy the coins at the right time and make a good profit from it.  Many investors and new traders always think that when to buy a coins is not important and at the end  invest into a coins at the wrong time.

I see this as not regular accuracy and some time bitcoin and others cryptocurrency do rise in price on both Saturday and Sunday. However, I can still connect the week price dropping to low volume and activities and not some technical issues. Bitcoin do reduce in volume because some traders may like to take some days off in other to have some rest from the market and this do cause some weak hand to sell off they coins at a cheaper price.

Both day trading and swing trade are both good, you only need to know the type of trader you are and trade accordingly. Trading is a games played by professionals and skillful people and you should spend your time in learning in other to know the type of trader you are. Many are loosing trade today not because they are day traders or swing traders but because they don't have sound knowledge on trading before putting their hard earned money. I think learning on how trading work is far better than the type of trader we are.

I have learned something here. Buying a coin when the bounty hunter are dumping it and sell them when those coins are listed in a big exchange. I think this is another great trading strategy and it will work fine the way I see it.  Many bounty hunters do sell they coins extremely very cheap and there was a coin we bought at 0.3cent and those coins were listed today and the price went down to $0.07.

What ever affect blockchain technology affect us as a cryptocurrencies holder and enthusiastic. I see this as adoptions and this will add to the list of companies using blockchain technology in doing business. I think this going to affect bitcoin's price in future and we are to do be happy about it.

The are many coins that are less than a dollar now but there are going to pump high in future and I will advise any wise investors to take advantage of the current bearish market and invest in them. Coins like ripple and xem has gotten a push back to below  $1 and buying them with your  $1,000 can make you a millionaire in future. I think there are also ongoing icos that you can also invest now and in years to come will turn out to be a great assets to your because I believe the future of cryptocurrencies is better than now.

I agree with you but I don't think this matter as bitcoin don't need the adoption of financial expert before now and we can all testified were it has get to. Before bitcoin was discovered most of this vices has been existing. I believe it is not bitcoin that need to be shot down before people will stop doing money laundry and fraud, using bitcoin to push drug.  Rether this problem has been with us and we can actually make used of the opposite side of it that is we can used bitcoin to purchase goods and services and it can services as medium of exchange for good and services including storing of values.

Bitcoin getting to $120,000 is a must and this may happen before  $2022. We have a wonderful price push in 2017 and if this can be repeated in any of the year we would have a wonderful prices' movement that may push bitcoin over $120,000. However a lot of adoption need to be do and we need to keep informing and educate people of what bitcoin stand for and what are the benefits of buying it now and what will be your worth in future. I have seeing a good signals that very soon bitcoin is going to resume it upward trend.

Spend time studying and go through many good threads that interest you about cryptocurrencies. The beginner and help section of the forum is another place you can do well also and make something good out of yourself. I will advise not to jump into investing first but to spend time learning and develop your knowledge on how bitcoin and others crypto market behavior and work before putting your hard earned money. You will make more money if you are ready to spend time in developing your account and join campaign here.

But by now I hope you have changed you view about about2018. To me 2017 is a good year because bitcoin has the best price movement so far and we actually cannot say either we would have the best price.  If the current movement from last week continue I think we would see bitcoin over $20,000 before may this year and a little good news can make this happen.

Thank you sir for this analysis and I will keep an eye at this point in other to take opportunities of a possible breakout. Ethereum has made some significant progress some few days back and I think we would need to get at that high point again. I have some unit of Ethereum and hope I make gain from them some days to come.

The reality is that people tend to buy into an assets when the price is low and sell them when it is higher. But in trading there is what we called a breakout in price and when that happened in the up trend it means big investors are putting in big money and that will pump the price high to another level of Fibonacci extension. What is happening now is that traders have stated to build confidence Into the bullish trend we are witnessing now.

I am just happy see this happening. I think we are close to were we started this year. Bitcoin will soon break this year high and heading to break last year high in December. $11,650 trading area has been broken this afternoon and I think after $12,250 we can said the bearish and ranging trends are over and we have resume a very serious uptrend or bullish market. May the god of cryptocoins be with us all.

I have updated my signature and avatar. However, the avatar will take some time to update and I will like to ask can I start posting for week 2?
