I read that processing one single Bitcoin transaction requires enough energy to power nine U.S. households in a day. No wonder the price is going up. Enjoy !!!

Hi ,  Depends on how you would want to trade it.

For spread bets yes with a guaranteed stop but problems getting orders accepted but trading on an exchange no, both routes have there problems caused by the very high volatility.

Interesting. I was looking at the three hour one which appeared to have more force closing in. I had only wondered about its potential without having done any research  because of the Fed announcement due later today. Briefly looking back at recent history it would not have looked like there was much action to be traded going forward.

 

I have been experimenting with the pic's but fear I loose detail if I don't use a camera.

 

When you've got time remind me how you did the picture?

What, no pic?  Yes they will be as price struggles making higher highs continuing to lose momentum though still above the 20 sma on the 4 hour but only just. Also seen in the continuing RSI divergence.

, ok, so 3 standard deviations on the B Bands and a 3 hr chart and you are therefore looking for a break up or down from the trendlines which is similar to a break of the B Bands themselves. I add a 20, 3.00 on a 4 hour for comparison, but the top band not yet corresponding but clearly a big pinch.

Interesting you're a genius finding all this kind of stuff. I wonder if Bitcoin will take a hit in the Far East tonight because I'm personally getting pretty fed up watching paint dry !!!!

I put out yesterday that last Bitcoin downturn to 10th December lasted 12 x 4hr bars. We are on number 12 now till midday GMT. The low occurred last time in bar 12 Have we seen the low already? Market would suspect a real fix if we got exactly same pattern as last time !

 

Ether looking strong. Maybe Bitcoin is going to wait till Ether hits where Bitcoin started the year.

 

I'd said it before but I would love Ether to end the year where Bitcoin started, and of course for Bitcoin to hit 20,000 or even a Fibonacci number like 21,000.

You are a genius. I was thinking it could ***** 17700 without the Fib stuff just by looking at the patterns of last time. Then again if the rest of the market thinks same it may not get there because everybody is looking for the next buying opportunity !

    • Solana ($SOL) is facing a challenging period in the market, with its price dropping to $130.56 USD. Here’s a closer look at what’s happening and what might be next for SOL. Recent Price Decline 15.17% Drop in a Month: Over the past month, Solana coin has fallen by 15.17%. This decline reflects the broader market’s pressure on the cryptocurrency. 8.5% Weekly Fall: Just this week, Solana saw an 8.5% drop, a sign that bears are firmly in control. Despite attempts to maintain a bullish outlook, the market seems to have different plans. Critical Support Levels Breakdown of $134 Support: Recently, SOL broke through the $134 support level, raising concerns that further declines could be on the way. Key Support at $122: The $122 level is now under the spotlight. This price point has been tested six times, and many whales view it as crucial. A break below this could push SOL towards $90. But if this support holds, it might set the stage for a bullish turnaround. $100 Support: While the $100 support level is still a bit distant, it’s essential to watch if the current bearish momentum continues. Revisiting this level could spell trouble for Solana. Changing Market Sentiment Shift to Bearish: The overall sentiment around Solana is slowly turning bearish. Since March, SOL has struggled to make new highs, and the current price action suggests that new lows could be coming. Potential Bullish Outcome: However, some analysts believe that if Solana manages to stay above $122 throughout 2024 and 2025, it could be incredibly bullish for the future, possibly leading to significant gains in 2025. Upcoming Breakpoint Event Historical Price Surges: There’s a potential catalyst on the horizon. Historically, Solana has seen price surges two weeks before its annual Breakpoint event. In previous years, SOL surged by 35% in 2021 and 2022, and by 60% in 2023. 2024 Event: With 16 days left until the 2024 Breakpoint event, could we see another rally? Only time will tell. The Importance of $122 Support As Solana approaches the $122 support level, all eyes are on whether it will hold. A break below could lead to further declines, while maintaining this support could bring back some bullish momentum. As always, stay informed, and remember the old adage in crypto: "buy the rumor, sell the news." Keep watching the charts as we near the 2024 Breakpoint event.  
    • One of the prominent cryptocurrency exchange, has maintained its commitment to user security through its Protection Fund. This self-insured fund, designed to safeguard user assets against potential threats such as hacks, fraud, and market volatility, has shown remarkable stability and growth. The fund has consistently maintained a value above $390 million, surpassing Bitget's initial commitment of $300 million. The exchange ability to continues to maintain a reserve ratio well above 150%, indicating a strong buffer against potential risks. The fund's value has shown correlation with Bitcoin's price movements, demonstrating its responsiveness to market conditions. Over the observed period, the fund's value peaked at $424.8 million and reached a low of $350.7 million, showcasing its ability to withstand market volatility while maintaining a substantial baseline. In February, the fund reached an all-time high valuation of over $543 million, coinciding with broader market uptrends. The Protection Fund's portfolio includes high-liquidity cryptocurrencies such as BTC, USDT, and USDC, which contributes to its stability and liquidity. This diversification strategy aims to mitigate risks associated with external market factors. Bitget's approach of self-funding and internally managing the Protection Fund allows for potentially quicker response times in critical situations, as it operates independently of external regulations and approvals. As the cryptocurrency market continues to evolve, the performance and management of such security measures will likely remain a point of interest for both users and industry observers.
    • Gold Elliott Wave Analysis Gold has maintained its strong upward momentum throughout 2024, with prices nearing another high in just over three weeks. The commodity has gained over 23% so far this year, and it is now testing levels close to a new all-time high. Despite this bullish progress, a minor pullback is likely to occur soon.   Daily Chart Analysis On the daily chart, Gold has been following a long-term bullish trend since December 2015. According to Elliott Wave analysis, the supercycle wave (IV) of this larger uptrend was recently completed, setting the stage for a new impulsive move in wave (V). Within this wave (V), waves I and II were completed in May and October 2023, respectively. Gold is currently advancing within wave (3) of 3 (circled) of wave III, which has the potential to extend above the 2550 level before reaching its peak.   The consolidation phase observed between April 12 and June 26 aligns with wave 4 of (3), serving as a corrective structure within the larger trend. The current upward movement is shaping into an ending diagonal structure for wave 5 of (3). If this diagonal structure holds, Gold is expected to break previous highs and achieve a new peak. However, if the structure breaks down, a correction in the form of wave (4) may follow. Wave (4) would provide the market with a chance to digest recent gains before potentially resuming the bullish trend.   H4 Chart Analysis On the H4 chart, the current price action is unfolding within wave v (circled) of 5 of (3), following the completion of a flat structure for wave iv (circled). The market has seen minor pullbacks, but as long as the price remains above 2472, further upward rallies are anticipated. For short-term traders, these minor dips could provide entry points as the price targets new highs. In the medium term, however, the completion of wave (3) is nearing, and a pullback for wave (4) is expected. This pullback could be a healthy correction, allowing the market to regroup before the final stages of wave (V) resume. Traders should be prepared for potential reversals as wave (3) concludes and wave (4) begins, marking a pivotal moment in Gold's multi-year bull cycle. This analysis emphasizes that while Gold continues to show strength, the Elliott Wave structure suggests an impending correction before the broader uptrend can resume.
