$COIN - Update: Buy + TPHello Friends, For those of you looking to capitalize on NASDAQ:COIN you may want to add to your position, or start accumulating for the first time. My original post: UPDATED IDEA: NASDAQ:COIN moving nice with CRYPTOCAP:BTC in this 2024-2025 Bull Run! Remember, NASDAQ:COIN basically mimics CRYPTOCAP:BTC so we want to trade them in a similar fashion. As you can see NASDAQ:COIN is still trading below the $368.90 High & the ATH of $429.54. I am expecting those levels to be traded to as CRYPTOCAP:BTC continues higher. The chart showing "Swing Protection TP 1" based on our current swing we left ($283-$149) is giving us a projection of $419.61. That being said, if you wish to add to your NASDAQ:COIN holdings at ~$318 (or lower), you have upside available to take profits. Please note: $429.54 ATH is a good objective. Will NASDAQ:COIN go higher with this bull run? IT all depends on when CRYPTOCAP:BTC tops out - I will update you then or follow along with my CRYPTOCAP:BTC exit strategy...

BTC Under $100k, Where Do I Buy?Hello Friends, For those of you looking to capitalize on Bitcoin BINANCE:BTCUSD you may want to add to your position, or start accumulating for the first time. While we are currently in consolidation under $100,000 USD, note the current Dealing Range we are in (chart). Below that Fib 50% Dealing Range, we can look for Buys. I also want us to consider the possibility of losing that +OB (Bullish Orderblock), we can expect lower prices - based on Daily/ Weekly chart. Should that occur - Start looking to accumulate/ Buy sub $86,760. My ideal entry will be at $85,158.42 Check out this link for my BTC Exit Strategy:

Market Maker Pattern with Multiple Long / Short TradesIf this Market Maker pattern plays out in symmetry to the left side, which is more visible even on the 5m chart, then there will be several long opportunities and several short opportunities with opportunity to either reverse positions right into the next drop or retrace. There is also a large red candle on the left side, seen on linked chart of 30m timeframe, that was only partially recovered and these red candles typically always get recovered by a corresponding green candle to the right side of the chart. Thatt gives additional strength to the idea that price will return to previous high of the structure to reclain the red candle. And each of these drop and recoveries is a significant percentage move, ranging from 9% to 30% and with 20x leverage that could make for a fairly safe and profitable series of plays. Of course, these patterns don't always play out completely symmetrical, but even if it fulfills a few of the moves or does so in smaller proportion to the moves on the left side, it's still a solid opportunity due to likelihood of move to upside to reclaim red candle and then likelihood of fulfillment of at least approximate fulfillment of the markdown / drop phase of the pattern.

MarketMaking and MarketMaker. What is it and who is it?All participants in financial exchanges can be divided into two categories - market makers, who set the mood in the market, and market makers, private investors with small capital. Market makers ( they are in minority ) will always manipulate market makers ( they are in majority ). What is a market maker, who he is, what he does at the exchange and why he is needed? WHO IS A MARKET MAKER AT THE STOCK EXCHANGE? This is a professional in the market with very large money, without whom trading is impossible - because this figure is considered a key player in the market and moves the price. Most often, this is the whole financial organization. MARKETMAKER is the one who creates and maintains the liquidity level of exchange , currency , cryptocurrency , futures instruments , etc. It is only possible to make transactions on the market through the market maker, who regulates the processes so that the exchange is not dominated by only sellers or buyers. The MARKETMAKER is obliged to buy even if the market is dominated by sellers and even if it leads to losses. And when the market is dominated by buyers, the market maker must sell in order to balance the market. The main purpose of the market maker is not to make money, but to regulate supply and demand, to maintain liquidity. CATEGORIES OF MARKETMAKERS Large commercial banks, but not by themselves, but united in groups: they are called institutional market makers. Brokerage companies Dealing centers Investment funds Private investors with significant capital. WHY DO WE NEED A MARKETMAKER? It stabilizes the market, controls price movements, satisfies traders' demand. And since large financial institutions take on this role, they can be both sellers and buyers. The market maker makes a huge number of deals every day and ensures the liquidity of assets. The peculiarity of their work is that market makers can support the quote both in the buy and sell direction simultaneously on the same financial instrument, which makes the price move more smoothly and price gaps disappear. TASKS OF MARKET MAKERS Ensure profitable deals for all participants To maintain sufficient liquidity for any instrument throughout the trading session To accumulate orders within the instrument being traded Find and consolidate the best price offers and record them in the price book Provide all participants with information on current quotes as soon as possible WHAT AND HOW DO MARKET MAKERS MAKE MONEY? The best way to make money on the exchange is to be able to correctly predict large price movements and timely open positions in this direction. No market maker can do it on a large scale, but a small impulse is enough to start the process of a large price movement. And for this market maker first forms a trend in the direction he needs, after which he acts in the opposite direction. Thus, the market maker makes a profit, while other participants lose more or less. Since market makers are the first to review current orders, they are the first to find out about the emergence of a trend in one direction or another and do everything necessary to balance the market and not allow a large surge of volatility. For the fact that he keeps the market price of the instrument in the predetermined limits, the market maker receives a significant discount on the commissions. And his profit is the difference between the bid and ask prices, which is called the dealing spread. Because the exchange is interested in maintaining the liquidity of assets, it encourages healthy competition and advocates the presence of several market makers on one floor. It reduces the cost of transactions, increases the speed of transactions and makes pricing transparent. Even the exchange rules often contain a clause that a deal is legal if a market maker is involved, i.e. it is quite a significant and influential market player. HOW DOES THE MARKET MAKER WORK? He establishes a connection with his clients through a program, analyzes the market and executes orders of his broker's clients. Often he prefers to work with mid-sized brokers to have the necessary volume of transactions to make money. Marketmaking. Order-Making and Order-Making. The function of Order-Making is to watch a particular company's stock and make predictions. Order-taking is to execute traders' orders and take additional profits. HOW DOES PROFIT TAKING TAKE PLACE? Like other market participants, market makers can also incur losses, which occurs if a position is chosen incorrectly. But due to the fact that market makers work with large volumes of trades and a large number of clients, they always have an opportunity to cover their losses. Regards! R.Linda!

The GME Fiasco Demonstrates the Need for RavencoinYou are probably aware of the unprecedented events surrounding Gamestop stock, retail investors, a potential short squeeze, and market manipulation by institutions. Thousands of retail investors like myself lost out on what could have been hundreds of thousands of dollars in gains on GME stock due to illegal abuses of the influence that brokerages and hedge funds have. The legislation is already in place to prevent the naked shorting that led to GME being shorted 140% of float, but it still happened. The legislation is in place to prevent the unbalanced and severe effects that Robin Hood had on GME stock by blocking buy orders for GME and not blocking sells. But it still happened. The potential for the short squeeze was a mathematical inevitability, and even now the brokerages admit that the price could have climbed into the thousands, had not the price been tanked by the halt of buy orders. But it hasn't happened, and may never happen now. We may see some punishment doled out for this, but we'll never see the money we should have made, which for most retail investors would have been life-changing. The issue therefore is not with the laws, but with the limitations with law itself. Rules against this kind of inequitable market influence and mechanical control over trading are not sufficient to prevent it. The only thing that can truly prevent it is that the conditions for this inequity don't exist in the first place. That is what decentralized finance provides. The cryptocurrency Ravencoin (RVN) is commonly referred to as being to assets (like stock, gold, art, etc.) what Bitcoin is to money. Ravencoin is built such that asset tokens can be created to represent real assets, either in the generic sense (i.e. many identical gold bars) or in the specific sense (i.e. particular works of art within the larger asset of "art"). Such a system can be used to distribute, buy and sell stocks. It could be also be used to distribute dividends, and even potentially handle the options market. Were such a decentralized system in place, no institution or individual would have the power to shut down the activities of other traders or manipulate stock in the way that Robinhood and other brokerages have in the GME fiasco. Regardless of the laws in place, this wouldn't have happened had the stock been represented by Ravencoin assets rather than paper certificates. As the continued democratization of finance grows and more average people enter the markets, the protections that cryptocurrencies and decentralized financial systems offer will be more and more crucial in pushing that forward. I have invested in Ravencoin not only because of the potential profit from that growing movement but also because I like technology and believe in the principles it can be used to uphold, of fairness and liberty. If you got into crypto now you would still be early! Disclosure: This is opinion, not advice. I have positions in both Gamestop and Ravencoin.

BTC is going to cream everyone then move to the sky.With all the added pressure on the currency market due to corona virus, Bitcoin is set to sail. I predict that most economies are going to tank a lot further yet also. It is not wise to buy yet, wait for all the "dumb money" to buy, get wiped out by market makers, then buy. See how easy it is to see stop losses, do you not think that big institutions can't see them??? Liquidity for the taking. I will be looking to buy coins around the orange price. Also I will not be trading bitcoin, I will be buying the coins and storing them into a secure offline wallet. Must better to invest in bitcoin for long term than to try trade it. This is long term idea and is NOT a trade but an INVESTMENT.
