How history hypes predict future price movement!Sometimes I ask myself why am I producing all this educational material on TW since it gets much fewer views than trade ideas themselves.
Usually, the answer is because I want to give something back. I want to teach the ones that want to learn how to catch a fish, not only get a fish.
Nikola Tesla said that we should check number 3, 6 and 9 and we would know much more about the World itself.
Let's check what number 3 tells about crypto markets.
Do you see 3 tops on all 4 graphs where the next one is lower than the previous one?
- 1st one is local hype top (peak)
- 2nd one is a local dead cat (where people still think run will go on)
- 3rd one is usually the last one (where weak players lose hands)
When that happens it's time for FUD to go away and recovery comes in place.
However, nothing can go exponential until the end. It has to stop to get some fuel for the next local hype.
That's consolidation before the next push. It can build up sideways also, but usually, it already has some upwards movement.
Some are faster like 135days or 185days to the next top in 2016 or 55-56days in 2017 when we are already deeper in the next bubble cycle.
Where are we today?
Is it consolidation or is it 3rd local top?
What do you think!?!
Give some opinions in the comments below and I will write down where I think we are. With approximately 90% probability! ;)
Enjoy your trades and don't forget that it's just an idea and not investment advice!
Hype
Understand the hype around Binance Chain & Dex and its effectsThis is my first technical and fundamental analysis of Binance Coin (BNB).
I also take the opportunity here to draw a parallel with another altcoin, TOMOCHAIN, not yet available directly on Trading View.
I have shown by vertical lines each Burn of BNB that occur every quarter since 10-18-2017, 6 Burns now reducing the total supply of BNB tokens by 5.41%. This makes it possible to note graphically that there has been no influence on the rise of the course so far!
Binance in its whitepaper promises the destruction of half of the BNB futures. The amount of BNB to "burn" is based on the number of transactions made on the trading platform in the last 3 months. Thus, after each quarter, Binance burns BNBs according to the overall volume of user transactions.
What is, on the other hand, very significant, and this contrary to most other cryptocurrencies, is that the price of the BNB has dissociated itself from the Bitcoin price (master-standard of cryptos) as from 03-20-2018, on the rise!
For almost a year now, although BNB's price remains closely correlated with Bitcoin's share price in terms of variations, it still retains the difference in value recorded by the sudden rise from 20 to 22 March 2018.
This "hype" corresponds to the first announcement by Binance of the creation of its own blockchain for BNB, so named BinanceChain, and therefore no longer a "simple" ERC20 token of the blockchain Ethereum!
But also already, the rumor spoke of a new exchange platform for Binance, visually similar, but decentralized! What is called a Dex and which allows customers to own their personal private keys, a safe asset. So, there was already talk of a Binance Dex, adding FOMO to this hype.
However, at the end of January 2019, Binance's second more precise announcement about BinanceChain and BinanceDex, resulting in a new hype / pump that I have framed on my chart!
Good news for those who have already invested on BNB (or on TOMO as I will explain), they take advantage of this announcement effect.
BUT for those who would be tempted to invest on BNB (and TOMO), I don't necessarily advise you in the immediate future!
On the one hand, I highlight in red the presence of a possible horizontal resistance that has just been reached, constituted by the previous big support broken November 13, 2018!
In addition, I also highlight the RSI 14 oversold (> 70) in the last 10 days, which refers to the hype of the month of December 2017... As much as there can be beautiful green candles to enjoy, so keep in mind the catastrophic result as of mid-January 2018! Periods of pure speculation are dangerous for your wallet.
