Zero.

Bozo's got his head up his ass. He can't even do simple arithmetic. Says he made 500 BTC on the spike down into the lows, but if that were to be true, he'd have to have been responsible for around HALF of ALL THE VOLUME on that move, or something like 1200 BTC, i.e. over a million and a quarter USD. Does anyone think MasterSchmuck was responsible for half the DASH market with over $1,300,000.00 during those 20 minutes into the lows? Especially after bragging about selling at the lows (that unwittingly idiotic statement that sounded good to him/her at the time)?

Zero. If anything he's lost money again.

Bozo's a zero.

He/she has the psychological profile of the pathological liar, not so much malicious to begin with - it begins quite innocently with the survival technique of responding to the unknown with the idea that, "okay, if it sounds good, then it must be true", and then the person relaxes in his/her own little reality bubble - but that can sometimes turn into something not so benign and even lead to psychotic and schizoid behaviors that can be detrimental not just to the individual in question but also to third parties.

As long as you humor him/her with good nature, keeping in mind that the only value his/her statements have are what they reflect about his/her internal hallucinations, he/she can't do you any harm. Think of him/her as that mentally challenged youngster with their head somewhere we can only imagine - if you treat them with loving care, never taking seriously anything they say (except when it's "I have to go to the bathroom"), there's never any harm done, and, what's more, they give you back thousands of times the amount of love that you give them.

MasterSchmuck needs our loving concern. Tell him/her yes to what he/she says. Tell him/her how wonderful his/her last trade was and how great it is for crypto to have someone like him/her to be making such a valuable contribution towards its future.

But always be clear, it's always a figment of his/her imagination, that being said, it often sounds very good, very real indeed, because even though the problem is that it's all made up, I didn't say anything negative about their creativity! It often sounds so good, that normal people buy into the idea! But the pathological liar blows it when they go overboard with things like making 500 BTC on a 20 minute move into a spike bottom where the theoretical maximum that could have been made (all the volume sold at the top of the move just after the break, and all the volume bought at the absolute bottom - which we know is just as impossible as accounting for all the fluctuations in between, but let's exaggerate and give him/her the benefit of the doubt) is just a little over double that. Sorry, but that just didn't happen. More likely he lost 0.5 BTC on the move.

TLDR: Don't pay any attention to what he says, and the best option is to humor him with kindness (much better than making fun of him as I suggested before - you'll get much better results treating him as an "amusing sidekick"), otherwise he'll get you so messed up that you'll make very bad decisions and do yourself a lot of harm, no doubt about it.

Another reason why critical thinking is so important. Like I said before, it's your job to police/self-regulate your coin . . .

The expert Wall Street trader would never bother. No need to. They make too much to begin with and what is described here, besides being "below them", is just too much work for what it's worth. And they aren't completely unscrupulous either.

On the other hand, what we surely, most assuredly, without a shadow of doubt, no doubt about it have (have I repeated that enough different ways to express just how likely it is?) is described here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_room_(business)

They just don't use the telephone anymore . . . not yet anyway. Give them time. And you thought crypto had a bad name already.  

Enjoy the reading, and please post other related information you find or already know about.


Edit: Oh, and then you have the outright frauds who delusionally think they're something that they're not. You know, like those who say they made 500 BTC when that would have meant that they would have needed to have traded approximately HALF of ALL THE VOLUME on the move they say they made it on. You know, people who are so stupid that they don't even think that doing some simple math turns them into outright lying idiots. Not to be confused with the pros . . . if you can call those boiler room scumbags "pros".


What they both do have in common is that they are complete dicks. That much they do have in common.

And the community has the obligation to flush them out using real data and rational arguments.

Silence is acquiescence. If you consider yourself to be a Dash community member, you have a duty to defend your interests, and simply whining and saying you're putting someone on ignore, or calling someone a troll, just doesn't get it, does it?

You tell me. Dash is your thing, and it'll be what you make it.




Now, you only have to fix the underlying technical issues . . .  

Sorry, but the truth is the truth. Start thinking for yourselves a little bit.

iCEBREAKER, it's your turn to step in now with another reality bite.  

I would say .075 - .08 is probable, but I wouldn't even begin to venture on a time frame just now. A retest of the lows is more likely first.

Cheers

No crystal ball, you're right, and no "experts" with secret gnosis either, but there are probabilities on something happening or not.

Has anyone taken a look at the two websites I mentioned yesterday with tons of educational articles about technical analysis?

Free yourselves from being simple followers and begin to educate yourselves so you can make your own well informed decisions (and not just about price action).

It's Monday and I've got real work to do, so I'll leave you with this update from something I posted yesterday (that had too many lines for some folks,  )

. . . and the stink bids I have left don't require my attention. ;-)




Add: Look at how .043 has already been recovered. MasterSchmuck must be passed out on the floor by now. He's got so turned upside down that I can't even imagine how much money he's lost. Hey pal, what goes around comes around - this time what you always do to your followers has happened to you. How does it feel?

Schmuck.

Someone who never learns is an idiot.

Someone who continues to listen to an idiot is an even bigger idiot.

So much for Dash . . . until I am proven wrong, of course.

How about that? We got down to .037 and held! Stink bids filled. Was probably MasterSchmuck777's "team" that panic sold into that hole (spike pinning all the way down to .03458) giving buyers great short term bargains. (I expect it will be retested though.)

Good job MasterSchmuck!

Now we eagerly await all the fireside stories about that nine foot trout you caught, etc., etc.

Buffoon.

I've heard that SEGWIT enables payment channels like Lightning Network, which safely provide instant confirmation and unlimited tx/day, along with many other new forms of technology, all of which basically makes the concept of Masternodes obsolete.

Is there anything to that?

Hey all, I’ve done the dirty work for you by getting the dick MasterSchmuck777 turned upside down and exposing him (see posts immediately previous to this one).
   
Now, all you have to do is repost the facts that I’ve posted in exposing MasterSchmuck777 for what he/she is.

It’s that easy. Nothing he/she says is true and you can laugh in his/her face all day long every time he/she comes back with his/her idiocy by reposting what I’ve posted and reminding him/her that he/she is a limp dick who hasn’t got the slightest clue about what he/she claims. A delusional schmuck.

I’m done with him, but he’s not done with you. Like I said, the hard part is done. He/she’s been exposed. Now all you have to do is repost these facts and ask him what’s changed to make you somehow now take him seriously. AND LAUGH IN HIS FACE. It will take a while, but he’ll leave sooner or later.

And for those of you who are diehard fraud haters, you can also follow him around wherever he goes and do the same thing.

Cheers

EXPOSED

Didn’t you say your “team runs Polo”? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=421615.msg18404773#msg18404773
Aren’t you “an elite group that runs polo”? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=421615.msg18405855#msg18405855
Another one from today (still delusional) “We run Polo”. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=421615.msg18430822#msg18430822

All copied below.

So what happened? The collective group circle jerk accidentally hit sell instead of buy? I mean, didn’t you say that you run Polo and that DASH had bottomed and was going up? You think everyone else is an idiot? Only idiots think that.

You’re a fraud who actually believes his/her own BS. A delirious, fraudulent schmuck who gets so confused that you even try to explain away by openly admitting to manipulating the very people who you were recruiting for your “team”. With friends like that, who needs enemies?

So I think we can safely summarize who you are with one short phrase: you're a dick (and a limp one at that).

You’re done here . . . unless you get your rocks off by making a fool of yourself. Idiot.

Think this is a game?

I think your mother’s calling. You can now crawl back into the hole you came out of.

You're a fraud and we know it.

You had one lucky call, but according to your last call, you're way under water, unless you stopped out. But somehow you've forgotten to tell us about how that worked out. Maybe some of your "members" will tell us how much their butts hurt . . . if there were members, that is.

Fraud trader. Real scammer.

But go on and keep telling us how great and powerful you are. It's quite amusing since it's actually the exact opposite. But don't mind me, please, keep us entertained. Every thread needs its court jester.

Rinse and repeat.

You've got a space populated mainly with nitwits and vultures taking them to the cleaners.

Not judging, simply stating the facts.

In all honesty, it's probably best for everyone, as this is one way, very Darwinist by the way, to get rid of the nitwits.

Careful traders. Have your stops in place. And pray that funny things don't happen.

Do you think he's that smart?  

Looks like we're goin' down hard.

The fiat chart looks even worse. 

The ball is in the bulls' hands. Hey bulls, it's up to you to show us what you've got. Don't fumble it now.

.05472 was/is both an extremely important target for shorts and an equally important entry level for longs. It's a huge level.

Add: If the longs can't get something going here, then there's big trouble ahead.

Big volume on the break - looks like a few folks got stopped on their longs, and with some really lousy fills too - ouch.

Add: I wasn't watching at the time, but is looks fairly obvious that the famous "buy wall" at .06 ran for cover as fast as it could.
