BTC/USD SUSPICIOUS VOLUME AND WICK LENGTH?Hello traders.
A growing concern for the cryptocurrency community has always been a drastic need for regulatory processes to circumvent price manipulation, which unfortunately clashes with the fundamental principal of decentralized, autonomous transaction that BTC was built to facilitate.
There have always been those who find ways to manipulate price and despite all current efforts, continue to do so for profit at the expense of speculators worldwide.
Do these high volume candlesticks provide any evidence to warn traders against possible manipulation on the horizon?
Stay tuned for updates.

Manipulation
EVIDENCE OF MANIPULATION!THE LAST TIME WICKS OF THIS NOMINAL SIZE OCCURRED, BUYING HAD BEEN BANNED (FOLLOWED BY BUYING LIMITS), THE VATICAN WAS SHORT SELLING THEIR METALS RESERVES TO SUPPRESS THE PRICE, AND THE CURRENT FUTURES PRICE SUPPRESSION MECHANISM WAS ESTABLISHED!
TETHER PRINT 1.53 BILLION USDT OVERNIGHT FROM THIN AIR!I spy with my little eyes Tether printing 1.5 B, yes BILLION USDT out of thin air.
Not only are the central banks printing unlimited FIAT to keep the economy afloat, we too are seeing USDT just being minted out of thin air in the Crypto universe. Now supposedly this is backed by 1.5B in Fiat US dollars but after seeing how shady Tether has been in the past, I personally highly doubt this is the case. Even if it is backed by fiat, that too was created with a click of one button so what difference does it really make?!
How coincidental this happens to be on APRIL 1ST LMAOO this whole thing really is a joke
I would not be surprised at all if we see extreme volatility and more pump and dump action come into the market in the very near future. 1.5B USDT is more than enough to give the market a good shake because remember that 1.5B USDT is NOT the same as 1.5B in market capitalisation.
For me personally, my plan remains the same. Sit back and watch this all play out, let this market properly bottom and let BTC form proper bottoming structure before going risk on.
Guys NEVER forget the 3 basic principles of trading and investing:
1) Preserve thy Capital
2) Protect thy Capital
3) Grow thy Capital
Or in other words…
1) Don’t lose money
2) Make Fucking sure you don’t lose money
3) Grow your money
These markets were made to take your money NOT make you rich. Never get so caught up in the 3rd principle that you lose sight and disregard the first 2. Without capital, you have no game left to play!
With that said guys, I’m very curious what’s your opinion on all this, how do you think this will impact the market? Be sure to let me know in the comments below!

EURUSD Short Swing PlanEuro is in manipulation prolly due to the global condition at the moment by this pandemic. Trillions and billions of moolah been printed out from global center banks are just an rotten news at this point and everyone is racing against to combat the virus and protecting their own plunging economy. System has already cracked and no idea how long it might be going this way. Debt rising eventually in all nations but could help escalate back the economy for some strong nations who are good at credit ratings. Sorry I was falling into macros by the way talking about euro technically it's been in a huge bearish trend for months or even a year in higher time frame. Don't get excited with ups and down in lower pictures young boys and girls. The reason only it was doing fine against king (buck) at small timeframes were when low yielding had charms like babe yellow metal in shine! I have figure out closely like a head and shoulder pattern in 2 hour resolution and I reckon if this pattern workout it might move price upward making the right shoulder. But....!!! a big but!!! If this head and shoulder doesn't workout in first place and price plunge lower with strong bearish momentum (after all the broad picture is either way a bearish trend) without making any sign of creating right shoulder then our short bias can workout smoothly. The good thing about this trade plan is that it's guaranteed that either you make money or lose money as it's so transparent that if price make right shoulder which will equal to stopped out! We got an edge i mean even if we get right and even if we get wrong we will know it clearly ahead that what we have to prepare for!

ASX 200 1st April BOOOM Look at this monthly wick it’s dying to bounce up 1st of April is the new wick all the stimulus etc,etc,

Manipulated global panic cause the largest and most devastating destruction around the world and this market gonna go boom somehow 🧐
I’m somewhat dissapointed and a little saddened by the fact this literally all seems to be China controlling the world on a global economy and potentially doing it for BTC HALVING 🧐 just a theory far fetched but hey this year has been messed up enough, ❤️
Bitcoin - 10k- was just manipulated?Whenever I look at the Bitcoin long term chart, I get this idea: Can't it be that the 20k and 10k (crossed out on the chart) are simply manipulated prices? (Has already been suggested by @ J0E007). So we just have 2 long term downtrends? If so, it will only be exciting again in 2021-2022. Well, just a little inspiration and suggestion.
US dollar heavily manipulatedFrom one week, the US dollar is heavily manipulated by some big hedge funds. Usd-Jpy (blue) and S&P futures (orange) chart shows what is going on. Two markets always well correlated, in the last week at the collapse of the futures has corresponded a strong increase in the currency pair.
The problem is that almost all the funds have suffered heavy losses with the American stock market. At first, they closed all the gain positions (gold and silver in the first place) to plug the hole, and now they try to recover the losses by "stealing" money to small funds and traders (that is what a fund manager friend of mine told me).
That's why I'm flat right now.
Time traveling aliens changed the date of my prediction.I can't believe this. First they are making a mockery of our corn fields and molesting our cattle and NOW they are making me look insane by changing the date of my prediction from Mar to Dec. Look I'm sorry guys my tin foil hat wasn't tin foil all along. I was duped! It's aluminum foil!! Aluminum doesn't WORK!
Stupid aliens.
Again, I'm sorry, but these creatures are tricky. It' should go down again. Be patient the aliens are manipulating charts using time travel. $22 soon.
Retrace on GOLD! Still a safe haven, but slightly manipulated. There could be a nice pullback happening on Gold. I can see a tweezer top forming on the monthly and while this is premature in judgement. I think we should look at the last recession for clues to how gold and silver will be manipulated if only temporarily.
Key price levels to watch are: $1518, 1447, 1367, 1290, and 1180.
This is not trading advice.
Silver Trading Within A High Volume Node It would appear as if the silver price is being controlled, imagine that... You can see that it's clearly trading within the high volume node to the right more or less. The RSI is also controlled within that range so watch for the RSI to to break range for a true trend change.
Watch out for a break above $18.80 or below $16.60 and then of course wait for confirmation before entering. Please give a like/ Follow me, and checkout my other charts.

- BTC - How big banks play monopoly in 2 stepsHello,
Before we start talking about now let's go back to 2017 to demonstrate the simple business model of big banks.
In 2017 before the futures every big financial entity was bashing bitcoin really hard ( Example: www.theguardian.com)
The reason why is that because they are simply making the weak investors sell in order for them to buy more and then manipulate them back into buying in ATH and then do this cycle again ,They use fear and greed in order to that...That's not just for bitcoin but for every other market in the past 20-30 years.
What is happening now is the same with coronavirus . Let's look at simple data:
-SPX is down 16.62%
-UKX is down 21.46%
-DAX is down 21.32%
And basically every other indices , And all for what ? A virus with 3% death rate (www.worldometers.info) that the media made it look like the new plague ?
What i think this is ,Is the fear phase in which the week investors sell in order for big banks to buy .
Back to Bitcoin ,
The best regions to buy BTC from is 5800-6200$ (Very strong weekly support) and 7200-7400$ (Weekly fib + daily support)

Dear Whales, You're Playing With FireThe price had been trading between 9000 and 9200 for a couple of days and then suddenly this happens...
I can understand manipulating the price lower before the expected halving bull run. Buy as low as you can before the price takes off. However, circumstances right now are precarious. The stock market is plummeting and the world is bracing for a recession. Crashing bitcoin right now is playing with fire. People are in panic mode. Crypto is considered a speculative investment, which is something that people are going to stay away from right now. Crashing bitcoin will just confirm peoples fear of taking a chance on crypto. It could scare enough people away that this bull run will have weak returns, or not even happen at all.
However, if crypto were to trend upward right now as the the stock market is tanking, it could draw people to crypto. That could cause a snowball effect that will push this bull run higher than anybody imagined. It may even help the flagging economy if people have a means to protect their wealth while the market tanks. A bull run right now could also cement crypto as a legit investment. Another dump right now is dangerous to the future of crypto. Take the economic situation seriously and what it could do to the future of crypto.
Psychology. Traps. The reason and the possibility of pump +8200%I made the trading idea about this coin about trading in the channel this afternoon, and I remembered the miracles on the roller coaster of 2.5 years ago on this coin. After all, such games rarely come across in the market to leave such a colorful mark in memories. You do not often see pumps at 19 and 82 x, after accumulating 88 and 100 days. The numbers are not random. Pumping was with an acceptable volume for such a coin.
In my opinion, the project is scam, well, like everything in the crypto world. I absolutely do not believe in anything. I have only cold calculation in trading. No sympathy for scam. In my opinion, all crypto projects including everyone’s favorite “anonymous”, “decentralized” “Beethoven” are frauds, making real money thanks to stupid bidders. But, in addition to “making money” for those who believe that without doing anything, you can become a millionaire. I think the naive point of view is that the "big brother" wants to make all the poor and lazy people millionaires. But they believe in it, because they themselves are such. This faith and inaction will lead to sad consequences. In addition to making money on fools, the crypto market carries more interesting tasks. Which, in case of success of the experiment, will become a reality and the poor will become even poorer, states will receive unlimited power and control.
But, let's get back to this coin. The legend of the project is Blockchain's solution for the global dental industry. The legend, unlike other promising projects, is supported by the principle: “Someday we will turn the mountains”, at least by their activity. Confuses a large number of blocked coins. Which at the time of "X" can bring down the price on all exchanges to zero. Therefore, this coin is not for holding, but for speculation from a good entry point to the planned exit or exit from certain situations in the market. By the way, not one "holder" could not sell not only on the 80X pump, but in general I doubt that 2-3X even on the accumulation price, although I can be mistaken, as after the pump I did not monitor the transaction. Why, I will describe below.
I started trading this coin in late October or early November 2017. Started by accident. On another exchange, I fell into the "trap" that was made on this coin. A book of orders, the entire history of purchases / sales and the trades themselves in the market with bait were also very cleverly made, but here one zero in the price was superfluous. So in a second I remember about $ 600-700 evaporated. I began to understand, I understood what was happening, well, what happened, what happened. By the way, this case in the future made a lot of money, as this action began to be used en masse at one time mainly on exchanges such as Binance and HitBtc when listing coins. Each manipulation against you, with the correct understanding of the essence of the work, can be turned into a weapon against the manipulator.
Everyone can be wrong, including you. Your mistakes are an invaluable experience.
So the initial acquaintance with this coin was not very pleasant for me, but very useful for work in the future. Then I found where this coin is being traded with great liquidity and without "surprises." It turned out the HitBtc exchange. It was evident from the work on the coin that someone on this exchange was gaining a position on this asset. I quietly started to do it too. Immediately in my work I had not a small amount, but when I understood everything what was being done and on what scale, I substantially added money. Every day +10 20% to part of the position. Not a coin, but a cash cow. Paradoxically, no one wrote about this coin anywhere in the chats, including the exchange’s trobox. It was a taboo.
I will say this, this pump at first at 1900% then at 8200% for the majority of those who stuck to this instrument of trading was a big disappointment. Before the growth, after 1.5-2 months of work in accumulation with strong volatility , I increased the initial amount of entry many times. Traded inside the day. At first I copied the actions of the “major player”, but when my position on the coin grew decently - teamwork through numbers. The work is clear, not complicated, without risk.
But the elephant climbed into the market and began to tear down the walls. Perhaps this "elephant" was this major player or the exchange itself. At first, we wanted to keep the price from rising in order to keep the price in the corridor. But nothing came of it. Money forces were not equal.
The biggest disappointment is when about 70% of the position was thwarted by + 300%. I didn’t think that it was possible, as the position was not small, that’s buying + 300% as an obvious not healthy thing. But what happened, it happened. but then the price was pumped up + 1900%
All further price movements I had to work with those coins that remained. It is good that the high price gave a larger spread, and therefore more freedom to manipulate work within the day. Played by what was left. Gradually increasing the number of coins on rising prices. At any moment I could leave the market, like any exit price - for me there was already a profit. Above + 1000% of the accumulation zone the game stopped, I already had enough. That and the liquidity to work a large amount was not there already, the games began for the schedule, but not for earnings . Then the green light is very greedy and stupid people.
Be less greedy than other people and as a result you will be richer than other people.
Let me remind you that the price soared by more than + 8000%. Why did this happen? Why did manage to raise the price? Why were there mostly inadequate buyers, but no sellers? There are several reasons, I will partially describe what happened so that you see similar manipulations in the future and know what to do and what not to do. By the way, similar manipulations are now happening on some coins, I won’t write the name, how it will look like an advertisement. I don’t need that. But, or will they be able to repeat this? More likely no than yes.
___________________________________________________________________
THE REASONS FOR THE HUGE PRICE GROWTH AND THE ABSENCE OF SELLERS.
1) "Killing faith" in a long downtrend. 88 days from the day of listing. The course is just down. (but only for the hamster).
The main thing is to "kill faith" below, "give faith above." In the market, as a rule, those who in the “non-faith” phase say that they do not believe in perspective, in the “faith” phase they will most likely acquire. The world is cyclical, events go in cycles, the flow of the crowd is cyclical, the thinking of the governed lends itself to cycles.
2) Manipulation of the exchange with dcn / eth and dcn / btc pairs . This was the most important manipulation of the discharge of passengers. It was not possible to lower the price; nobody wanted to sell. They were not going to leave even at + 30% and above. In order to strengthen the dump, they announced a delist from the exchange of the dcn / btc pair.
It’s not the understanding of people that they really do not affect the price movement, but are just fuel in someone else’s game, which makes them this fuel for movement.
Whoever had a big position and the corresponding amount of BTC for the terrible visual presentation for hamsters put up walls pouring in them every time a huge sales volume with a gradual price rushing. At that time, the exchange blocked specifically on several days coins on the exchange’s account with many traders. But the panic sat on. Everyone wanted to leave the market, because it was very painful to watch how the price goes down. But they could not do anything, as for "technical reasons" the exchange blocked coins. But major market participants (perhaps the "exchange itself") held the idea of "killing the faith."
3) Bad news in front of the pump. There were a lot of big transfers to the exchange from wallets, many holders also surrendered ... Let me remind you the input / output was opened, but the trading account on this coin was blocked due to the fact that the dcn / btc pair will be delisting soon (those with orders were in this pair). Then, just before the delist of one of the DCN / BTC pairs, when the price dropped significantly by the game, all the accounts of the "traders" were unlocked. Naturally, everyone tried to sell on the market, because soon they would not sell where, as on the other pair there was no liquidity at all. Those who bought up naturally put up weak buy orders, so that hamsters had no hope of a price reversal.
A well-run crowd works like one very stupid person.
The interesting thing is the psychology of the crowd. I’m sure who sold “To get out at any price” after less than 3 weeks they bought from + 1000% and probably many people really got apathy for trading and a feeling of “lost profit” when the price during the pump reached + 8200% (82x) . It is probably painful to realize when you sell at a loss at the lowest price before the pump, and after such a short time you see such an increase.
4) Closed the input / output of coins before pumping coins naturally for "technical reasons". So no holder, with the exception of those who transferred coins to the exchange during the dump and did not have time to sell, could not use this pumped. Holders as always in flight ..
The more stupid a society is, the higher the percentage of earnings in it is for those who are smarter. Do not be one of many, be one among many.
5) After a while, the pair that was delisted from the exchange - DCN / BTC appeared again on the exchange.
6) Good news when pumping. On Twitter , the developers published the news in the manner: “DCN is the last hope of mankind” or “DCN will become the new Bitcoin” and similar nonsense in this spirit. In telegram chats, a similar FUD was also widely used. But the news has never moved or moved the price, they always move with money. News without money does not work. True, the crowd is convinced of the opposite.
7) The first pump at 1900% (19X) . So called "Hamster Pump", but my tongue does not turn + 1900% to call a hamster pump. But in this situation on this coin it was. I think any sane would go out without slowing down at such a price increase.
Then, after this pump, another pump happened, from the accumulation zone + 8200%. There were definitely no passengers on this pump anymore, therefore it was possible to raise the price in such a way by buying out own orders and making appearances of trade by luring hamsters.
Your first enemy is a lack of experience and knowledge. Your second enemy is greed and a sense of lost profits.
8) The presence of a lot of money from those who controlled the price. Without a good amount, this was not possible. You also need to consider that in addition to money ( btc ), it was necessary to have DCN coins "two or three bags" in order to direct the price. I think you understand who in this situation is the biggest player and initially has the most coins. Without an initially large position, it is very difficult for a trader to accumulate a large position in a short time, although in exceptional cases it is possible.
9) A clear, thoughtful, phased work plan for the manipulators in advance. Good knowledge of the psychology and thinking of the crowd.
This is an old thing, but it is possible for the conscious work and understanding of what is happening in reality in the bidding you will find this information useful. I think you understand that the exchange itself is partially involved in this manipulation. I do not think that exchanges will no longer sin by such manipulations. Be careful, be smart, don't be a herd.
If you understand what is happening in the trade - take part in the trade, if you do not understand - watch from the side.
I wish you all productive study and great profit in trade.
BTC / Bitcoin: The most manipulated asset on the blockBitcoin has to be the most manipulated asset on the block. So typical that it prints an ascending triangle on the daily and then fails (on the weekend), liquidating longs. It will recover top of next week. I’ve adjusted my chart and the triangle formation (which I still think that it’s printing).
