General Von Clausewitz wrote in his famous book "Vom Kriege" ("On War") something like this.
If two parties go to war, the only way to get a lasting peace is for one of the parties to win a victory so overwhelming that the looser will not try to retaliate in a new war.
That's what the allied did with Germany, and the USA did with Japan.
I think that is what is eventually going to happen in this conflict too.


*sigh* Pretty much. The US civil war is an example of what happens when the loser is given honorable terms and troops removed quickly. Result: Century of "lost cause" baloney.

We'll see.

Yes. very interesting, but Mr Burry is known to first LOSE a big chunk of his bets before making a large profit, so taking an opposite short-term position might just pay off..it is a bit cynical, but so are his bets as well.

So my hope is that price reverses more of less immediately following the TD 9. Otherwise, the 200 Day MA becomes the point of hopium as part of an imperfect setup.



Even a drop below 42.300 and I'd have to lower my bullish prediction from 90% to around 60%, which is more or less like flipping a coin. Ie: shit.

For now nothing has changed. The TD 9 Sequential represents the potential for a trend change.

If you read the Old Testament you'll see that God instructed the jews to battle the various towns in their path and to leave nobody alive.

Early strategy that may translate to continuing today.

They learn the Old Testament by heart, so they know well about the "leave nobody alive" bit.
Still hurting from the Shoah, they behave like children abused by a violent parent: spread the love!
There is no justification for what they are doing. It's the law of the bully: this is it because I say so.

Forgive me for saying this, but the second graph does not really look very promising... The first one clearly follows an upward, parabolic curve. The second one looks like a sorry-ass camel...

In any case, no worries. Corn does what corn does. We'll just have to postpone the fireworks for another couple of months. Or years.

A generous gesture, but, still, you should buy when stuff is going up and sell (or holdl) when things go down, NOT vise versa.
BTW, it is difficult to do, granted, I even bought a small amount of COIN when it was on the decline slope, but started to temporarily recover.
Not buying that anymore after reversal.

For now nothing has changed. The TD 9 Sequential represents the potential for a trend change.

I am going to suggest that even predictions around 60% can be quite overly certain in bitcoinlandia and even needing explanation order to understand why such certainty is being espoused to others.  On the other hand, on a personal level you can come to as high of certainties as you like, and if you place your BTC bets accordingly, you may well be getting reckt quite a lot if you are actually betting in ways that consider yourself to have better than 60% odds of being correct.

At the same time, many of us realize that both gamblers and sorcerer wannabes tend to overstate their success history, and if they are forced into a practice of actually having to timely report such bets in order to see how they play out in actual practice, they are frequently humbled in a fairly quick timeline, even though some might have something up to a 6 month streak from time to time.. even jupiter9 - that kind of reminds me of your vague-ass TD9 was successful for a seemingly long-ass time, may have been greater than 3 months if my recollection is serving me with some level of accuracy.

You don't really seem like a dumb guy, so hopefully you will get ur lil selfie humbled a wee bit in order that you might be able to be helpful to others in this thread beyond being another example of what NOT to do.. and we surely already have a decent abundance of those, so it seems....

At the same time, I do believe that we are quite blessed in this thread in terms of the number of really full of shit participants .. so there does seem to be a lot of decent ideas being presented and outlined herein on a quite regular basis.. even during stressful times like these.. what are we at?  a current low of $40,127 (within the past 20 minutes-ish) as I type which would be a bit more than a 38% correction from our current ATH of $64,895?

No real actual clear sign of a violent bounce back that sometimes can help to provide some evidence that the bottom is in - even though neither a violent spike down nor a violent bounce back would be a condition precedent for the bottom being in because the bottom could get reached without such wicks.

LOL. Did I ever pick a great time to set up a $30/day recurring buy or what?
* BobLawblaw punches himself in the nuts. Feels nothing.


Hahahahaha

That might be the key.. bob...

Maybe we do have to get Blawb to start screaming like a little girl before the bottom is actually in....

that might be a decent indicator.. And you cannot be faking it either.. .. put ur lil selfie emotionally back in the time when you were deleting all your posts, or you were whining about going below $10k but the BTC price did not want to stop there...

King daddy knows the difference between a real scream like a little girl and a fake one.

It is almost the same "system" as @JJGs. It ought to be the exact reverse/opposite.
I know that it sounds counterintuitive, but it is supported by many leading market practitioners and my own 24 year long market experience as well.
Just my 2c.
